Overview
Crumb & Get it is a small bakery in Poʻipū on Kauaʻi’s South Shore, listed at 2360 Kiahuna Plantation Dr in Koloa. Google Places shows it as operational with daily morning-to-early-afternoon hours, and the business appears to be a focused bakery rather than a full-service café or restaurant. (yelp.com)
For travelers, the appeal is straightforward: it looks like a grab-and-go or light-stop bakery with a reputation for fresh pastries, coffee, and breakfast items that people seek out early in the day. The evidence also suggests it is the kind of place where certain items sell out, so timing matters. That makes it most relevant to visitors staying in Poʻipū or driving the South Shore in the morning. (mapquest.com)
Cuisine & Specialties
Crumb & Get it’s lane is baked goods and breakfast pastries, with enough supporting evidence to say it is best understood as a micro-bakery. The strongest signals point to croissants, quiche, cinnamon rolls, breakfast sandwiches, banana bread, and a few signature-style pastries that reviewers single out by name. The place also appears to serve coffee. (mapquest.com)
- Overall menu style: Small-batch bakery/breakfast stop with pastries, sweet baked goods, and a few savory breakfast items.
- Notable items supported by reviews/photos: lil quiche, pig in a blanket, chocolate croissant, banana bread, breakfast sandwiches, Brunch Bun, The Knott, “Jen’s Bomb,” and a pineapple muffin-of-the-day mention. (mapquest.com)
- Price expectations: Traveler feedback and the bakery format suggest moderate spend rather than a full meal budget; people seem to buy a pastry or two plus coffee, not a long sit-down spread. The exact price list was not reliably available in the sources reviewed. This is an inference from the menu style and review behavior, not a hard published price fact. (mapquest.com)
- Dietary usefulness / limitations: There is some evidence of vegetarian-friendly options from the Kauaʻi Connect listing, but there is no strong source support here for broader dietary coverage such as vegan, gluten-free, or allergen-safe baking. (kauaiconnect.com)
Notable Features & Ambiance
The experience reads as casual, compact, and early-day oriented rather than leisurely or formal. Review snippets describe it as a “quaint little bakery” and a “charming micro bakery,” which fits the limited-hours, takeaway-friendly profile. (mapquest.com)
- Service model and seating style: Evidence points to counter-service and takeout as the core model; Kauaʻi Connect explicitly tags it for takeout, and the review language fits a quick stop more than a dine-in destination. (kauaiconnect.com)
- Atmosphere and decor: The public evidence emphasizes warm, friendly, small-scale bakery vibes more than décor details. There is not enough reliable source material to describe the interior beyond that.
- Amenities or practical features: Kauaʻi Connect lists wheelchair accessibility and water refill as services, and the site appears positioned for convenience in Poʻipū. (kauaiconnect.com)
- Best fit: Breakfast, an early pastry run, coffee stop, or a quick treat while staying nearby in Poʻipū/Koloa. (mapquest.com)
- Weaker fit: Travelers wanting a long brunch, a broad menu, or a late-day bakery visit; the current hours are morning-heavy and one source even labels the place as closed when viewed, which reinforces its limited operating window at the time of that crawl. (kauaiconnect.com)
History & Background
Very little meaningful ownership or origin-story material surfaced in the sources reviewed. The website-generated description on MapQuest names “Jen” and “Chris” in a warm, handmade-bakery narrative, but that text is clearly promotional copy generated from the website rather than independently verified history. I would treat it as a light clue, not a confirmed founder story. (mapquest.com)
Review Sentiment Snapshot
What People Love
People consistently praise freshness, specific pastries, and the sense that the bakery is worth an early stop. The strongest recurring themes are “fresh pastries,” coffee, breakfast items, and standout named items like the Jen’s Bomb, chocolate croissant, lil quiche, and banana bread. Service is also described positively, with one reviewer calling the staff kind. (mapquest.com)
Common Gripes
The clearest downside signal is limited selection later in the day or when arriving close to closing time. One reviewer said there was not much pastry selection on their visit, which is a plausible and fairly well-supported caution for a small bakery with limited hours. There is not strong evidence of deeper quality problems; the negative signal is more about timing and inventory than food quality. (mapquest.com)
Practical Visitor Tips
- Hours: Google Places lists daily hours of 7:30 AM–2:00 PM, while Kauaʻi Connect shows 8:00 AM–2:00 PM on most days and no Monday hours; the mismatch suggests the hours may drift and should be checked before going. (yelp.com)
- Best time to go: Early. Multiple reviews imply favorites can sell out, and the bakery seems strongest as a morning stop. (mapquest.com)
- Ordering expectation: Plan for quick service or takeout rather than a sit-down meal. (kauaiconnect.com)
- Location note: The address is in Poʻipū/Koloa near Kiahuna Plantation Drive, so it is convenient for South Shore visitors and nearby resorts. (yelp.com)
- What to ask for: If you have a short window, prioritize the named signature pastries reviewers repeat most often: Jen’s Bomb, chocolate croissant, lil quiche, banana bread, and Brunch Bun/The Knott if available. (mapquest.com)
Verification Notes

- Hours show mild drift across sources: Google Places says 7:30 AM–2:00 PM daily, while Kauaʻi Connect shows 8:00 AM–2:00 PM and no Monday hours. (yelp.com)
- Operational status appears current/active, but one MapQuest page labeled the listing “Closed” at crawl time, which looks like a directory artifact rather than a confirmed closure. (mapquest.com)
- No major identity conflict found beyond the hours drift and directory-label inconsistency. (yelp.com)
