The food here is wonderful. Of all the coffee shops in Hilo this one if my favorite. The staff is fun and friendly and fill the air with jokes and laughter. Even if you just come in for a cup of coffee you are welcomed and treated like an old friend.

What a great place for breakfast! The Iced Toddy Coffee is the best a must order! The souffled eggs are light and fluffy never had them before Bears. The server can't remember her name right now was great she was an older hippy type and really knew her stuff. Terry the owner was a hoot!
