The Shala
An easy, all-day café for slow breakfasts, good coffee, and matcha.
Nourishing Plates for Slow Mornings and Long Days
At Kahana, food is meant to ground you. Our all-day café serves mostly vegetarian, plant-forward comfort food designed for easy mornings, post-surf refuels, and unhurried afternoons in the garden.
From wholesome oat bowls, banana pancakes, and veggie silog plates to comforting pastas, chili, and warm bowls, our menu balances nourishment and familiarity—food that feels good to eat and easy to come back to. We also offer a small selection of hearty non-vegetarian breakfast plates for guests who want a classic, filling start to the day.
Pair your meal with thoughtfully brewed coffee, coconut cold brew, nourishing smoothies, or our signature Matcha Mama drinks—made for calm energy, not the crash.
Whether you’re staying with us or passing through Cemento, the café is a quiet place to slow down, eat well, and ease into island time.
