Kountry Kitchen’s menu offers a delightful fusion of traditional American breakfast favorites with Hawaiian flair.

The atmosphere is country, casual and welcoming. More than a few patrons describe Kountry Kitchen as a Kauai Cracker Barrel. The restaurant certainly has a downhome feel, with country flourishes throughout. Checks are delivered in old Spam cans for a charming finish.

The restaurant’s popularity means that wait times can be considerable, especially during peak hours. To mitigate this, Kountry Kitchen offers an online waitlist via Yelp, and reservations are accepted for parties of six or more. Arriving early (they open at 7AM) can also help with wait times. Additionally, an outdoor covered seating area can often be had with no wait.

Kountry Kitchen is open daily 7AM – 1PM, except for Tuesdays and Wednesdays when they are closed.
