The Beet Box Cafe - Haleʻiwa

Do they want customers? I ask because yesterday, 4-28-24, they weren't accepting online orders and when I went to the Haleiwa location, the restaurant was not even close to full, and they said the wait for food would be longer than 40 minutes. They had one cook, at noon, on a weekend. Seems they don't want the business...

The most amazing df/gf donuts I have ever had ! Staff is so lovely also

Ana excellent plane to grab some heathy breakfast or any other food you may be after. I wanted some coffee and something sweet, so went with the peanut butter cookie and the açaí bowl. The coffee was not made fresh, but premade and in a canister, but it ended up still be very tasty. The cookie was great, with a crunchy exterior and soft interior. And the açaí bowl was great, but a bit runnier than others on the islands. But don’t let that deter you from trying it. The service was fast and friendly, and the space was open and relaxing.

I ordered a gluten free sandwich from this restaurant March 9th. Since they had a TON of gluten free items on the menu, I was not worried about anything at all. They had signs about potential cross contamination, but that isn 't a big deal for my allergy. My issue arises when I consume gluten items. I was given a table marker, and I went outside to sit with my group of friends. The man (manager with lightning on his face) who took my order, brought me my food. Given that he was the one that took my order, I didn 't question it. I started eating my sandwich and after almost eating half of it... a waitress comes out to our table. My friend still hadn 't gotten his food.She said gluten free *sandwich name* . I was the only one eating gluten free in our group. I quickly realized what had happened and told her that was supposed to be mine... but someone had apparently brought me someone else 's order without checking the table markers properly. She didn 't care. She put the plate down and walked away, didn 't offer to take it away, refund, or anything.I went inside and asked for a refund for at least my sandwich. No one could help me it seemed. People kept calling for help at the register, and eventually the manager came up and called the owners of the restaurant. The girl who walked away from me- came up to the register and said Can we just give her cash so she can get out of here? There was not a hint of kindness or sympathy in her tone. My mouth dropped open.. and she looked at me and said well if you 're feeling that sick don 't you want to go home? . I didn 't get her name, but she had a shaved head, hair had slightly grown in and was brown/darker color. She was more on the thinner side. I wasn 't going to leave a review for the mess up... even though I spent hours in the bathroom in severe pain for this careless mistake... but that woman 's behavior alone led me to make this review. The manager with lightning on his face was right there on the phone when she said it, and he didn 't say a word. It was extremely disrespectful and very inconsiderate considering it was the staffs mess up.I 'm very thankful I am not severely allergic to gluten or this could 've resulted in a much worse outcome. People can literally sue over things like this happening... especially if they have a more severe allergy than I do. I was told my refund should process but they wouldn 't provide me a receipt of any kind or even verify my order number. I truly wish I had a better experience here, but hopefully this review helps someone be more cautious about checking what they are served here before eating it. Picture is of the non-gluten free sandwich I was served before I ate half the sandwich.

Calling all vegetarians and vegans! This is the spot for you. Come in hungry, because the portions here are huge! You'll be digging into large, flavorful dishes. We had lunch there and sampled a variety of options, from smoothies and soup to açai bowls, salads, and more! You might even find yourself boxing some up to take home if you weren't incredibly hungry when you arrived.A parking tip: Look past the bus stop when parking. The restaurant is a bit hidden, and Google Maps might not pinpoint it perfectly. You'll find it on the right side after parking in the shared lot.
