banana pudding 9.5/10. wish there was more crust at the bottom. so soft, airy, and light. sweet but not too sweet! had some bananas in there too. chocolate banana latte 7/10. just tasted like a normal latte :/ no banana flavor really sugar malasada: very bready but i like bread. kinda dry. kauai bakery was slightly better imo. i think it could've been gas with cream inside but they were out :(

The brekke bagel sandwich special was delicious! Got the cheddar bagel with regular cream cheese one day and cheddar & jalapeno bagel with regular cream cheese. Both were delicious, the jalapeno definitely added heat. The smoothie and coffee were good too!

Stopped by The Jammin’ Banana Bakery & Cafe and loved it! We tried the malasadas and they were fresh, soft, and absolutely delicious. Paired them with a cold brew, which was smooth and refreshing — a perfect combo. The staff was incredibly friendly, photogenic and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I’d come back to and recommend to others!

We have enjoyed light breakfast here for the last couple days. This morning I had the best garlic bagel I have ever eaten in my entire life! They are made in the shop and have full cloves of garlic baked throughout the bagel. If you love (or even like) garlic, then you need to add the @theJamminBananaBakery&Cafe to your life bucket list!

This is a great place to try banana pudding and latte coffee. The large size latte is really big - $8. They offer handmade drinks, and both the drinks and cakes are very delicious. I have visited many times. It’s located in a small shopping area near the ABC Store and Duke’s Restaurant. Parking is easy to find.

This place is definitely worth checking out, especially if you love banana pudding. We were looking for malasadas initially and ended up at the jammin banana. We got each of their malasadas, including sugar coated, pumpkin filled, vanilla filled and chocolate filled. Each were delicious and the pumpkin was my personal favorite. My friend got the breakfast bagel sandwich and loved it. The banana pudding was homemade, flavorful and not too sweet.

This establishment is charming. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the ice banana latte. The coffee was generally enjoyable, though I thought it could benefit from a stronger banana flavor.
