If you’re around for breakfast, served between 7 and 10 a.m., the seared ahi or ham’n benedicts are absolutely to-die-for.

Don’t forget to grab dessert while you’re there – their chocolate macadamia nut pie is heaven for any chocolate lover, and the bananas in the banana cream pie are harvested from the restaurant’s own farm. But it’s the coconut cream pie that will surely make your mouth water.

Pies - and bread - are baked fresh daily, and it’s not unusual for Leoda’s to sell out before closing time, so if you have your heart set on a decadent apple crumb pie, you’ll have to stop by early.
