Holey Grail Donuts
Hot taro donuts fried in coconut oil, made to order on the North Shore – a distinctive local treat worth seeking out
About Holey Grail Donuts
**Holey Grail Donuts**
This food truck on Kauai's North Shore makes unique donuts using Hawaiian-grown taro and coconut oil. Every single donut is made to order, so they arrive hot and fresh (expect about a 10-minute wait).
The **Original Sin** with Hawaiian vanilla bean, maple, and sea salt is the classic choice for a first visit. If you're feeling adventurous, try the **Hail Mary** with cardamom and rose, or the **Lilikoi** featuring local passionfruit. They release a new weekly menu every Thursday with seasonal flavors, so there's always something different to try.
You'll order at the window and grab your box of warm donuts to go. They also offer solid coffee and specialty lattes if you want the full breakfast experience.
The taro base sets these donuts apart from standard shops. You're tasting something you can't get anywhere else while supporting local Hawaiian agriculture.
**Insider tip:** They used to open only on Sundays but now operate five days a week due to demand. Arrive early as lines can get long.
