Holland America Hawaiian Brunch Menu: Food, Cocktails & Prices
Holland America Line’s Hawaiian Brunch brings Hawaii-inspired dishes into the ship’s Dining Room with a special menu featuring tropical breakfast favorites, island-style entrées, seafood, cocktails and desserts. Instead of a standard breakfast or lunch menu, the Hawaiian Brunch combines both meals with dishes such as pineapple coconut pancakes, Hawaiian roll French toast, Kalua pulled pork, loco moco and a Hawaiian plate with teriyaki chicken and Korean beef short ribs.
This special brunch is associated with Holland America’s Hawaii cruise experience and may be offered as part of the dining schedule on applicable itineraries. The menu shown here provides a detailed look at the food and drink selections guests may encounter, although specific dishes, prices and scheduling can change.

One of the more notable options on the photographed menu is the Bottomless Mimosa for $19.
A regular Mimosa is listed at $11, while the bottomless version is $19. Both use sparkling wine and orange juice.
For guests planning to order more than one mimosa during brunch, the price difference between the two options is relatively small.

Complimentary Coffee, Tea, Milk and Juice Options
In addition to the separately priced specialty beverages, the menu displays several standard drinks without individual prices.
These include:
- Coffee
- Decaffeinated coffee
- Tea
- Decaffeinated tea
- Skim milk
- Low fat milk
- Whole milk
- Apple juice
- Orange juice
- Cranberry juice
- Pineapple juice
- Grapefruit juice
- Prune juice
- Tomato juice
The Hawaiian Brunch therefore offers both standard breakfast beverages and a separate selection of premium alcoholic and specialty drinks.
First Courses at the Holland America Hawaiian Brunch
The first portion of the Hawaiian Brunch menu mixes traditional breakfast dishes with salads, soup and lighter options.
Guests can choose from:
- Tropical Breakfast Smoothie – orange juice, pineapple, raspberries, banana and coconut milk
- Mango and Banana Vanilla Greek Yogurt Parfait – mixed berry compote and poppy-granola fingers
- Pineapple Coconut Pancake – crushed macadamia nuts, whipped butter and maple syrup
- Hawaiian Roll French Toast – cinnamon, sweet butter, strawberries and powdered sugar
- Goats Cheese, Assorted Fresh Berries – toasted pistachios
- Maui Sweet Corn Chowder – potatoes, cream, cayenne and chives
- Burrata and Tomato Salad – toasted pecans, balsamic reduction and pesto bread
The selection is broader than a conventional breakfast menu. Guests can go in a sweet direction with pancakes, French toast or yogurt parfait, or choose something more savory such as corn chowder or burrata salad.
Pineapple Coconut Pancakes
The Pineapple Coconut Pancake is one of the clearest tropical breakfast choices on the menu.
It is served with:
- Crushed macadamia nuts
- Whipped butter
- Maple syrup
The combination of pineapple, coconut and macadamia nuts gives the dish an obvious Hawaii-inspired profile while still keeping the familiar structure of a cruise ship pancake breakfast.
Hawaiian Roll French Toast
Another sweet option is the Hawaiian Roll French Toast.
The menu pairs it with cinnamon, sweet butter, strawberries and powdered sugar. It is a more destination-themed variation of the French toast frequently found on cruise breakfast menus.
Tropical Breakfast Smoothie
Guests looking for a lighter start can choose the Tropical Breakfast Smoothie.
It combines:
- Orange juice
- Pineapple
- Raspberries
- Banana
- Coconut milk
The menu marks this selection with the vegetarian symbol.
Maui Sweet Corn Chowder
The Maui Sweet Corn Chowder moves the menu away from breakfast and more toward lunch.
It is prepared with potatoes, cream, cayenne and chives. This is one example of why Holland America describes the meal as brunch rather than simply offering a themed breakfast.
Main Courses at the Hawaiian Brunch
The second-course selections become substantially more filling and include sandwiches, traditional breakfast dishes, meat, seafood and a plant-based bowl.
The photographed menu includes:
- Kalua Pulled Pork Sandwiches
- Biscuits with Gravy, Chorizo Sausage
- Barbecue Tofu Bowl
- Glazed Pineapple Burger
- Hawaiian Plate
- Classic Eggs Benedict
- Blackened Mahi-Mahi Sandwich
- Traditional “Loco Moco”
The variety allows guests to treat the meal as either a late breakfast or a full lunch.
Kalua Pulled Pork Sandwiches
The Kalua Pulled Pork Sandwiches are served on a brioche roll with:
- Coleslaw
- Hawaiian BBQ sauce
- French fries
Kalua-style pork is strongly associated with Hawaiian food, making this one of the more obvious island-inspired selections on the brunch menu.
Biscuits with Gravy and Chorizo Sausage
For a heavier breakfast option, the menu offers Biscuits with Gravy and Chorizo Sausage.
The dish also includes fried eggs and bacon.
This is one of several dishes on the menu that blends familiar American brunch food with the broader destination-themed selection.
Barbecue Tofu Bowl
The Barbecue Tofu Bowl provides a meat-free alternative and is one of the most ingredient-heavy dishes on the menu.
It includes:
- Quinoa
- Bell peppers
- Avocado
- Red onion
- Pineapple
- Scallions
- Toasted coconut flakes
- Cilantro
- Sesame seeds
- Barbecue sauce
The menu identifies this dish as vegetarian.
Glazed Pineapple Burger
The Glazed Pineapple Burger combines sweet and spicy flavors.
It is served with:
- Sriracha mayo
- Brioche bun
- Havarti cheese
- Tomato
- Lettuce
- Red onions
- French fries
The pineapple element keeps the burger connected to the Hawaiian theme while the remaining ingredients make it a familiar lunch option.
Hawaiian Plate
The Hawaiian Plate is one of the menu’s most substantial selections.
It includes:
- Macaroni salad
- Grilled teriyaki chicken
- Korean beef short ribs
- Sticky rice
Plate lunches are a familiar part of Hawaii’s food culture, and Holland America’s version brings several of those elements together in one entrée.
Classic Eggs Benedict
Guests who prefer a more traditional brunch dish can choose Classic Eggs Benedict.
The menu describes it with:
- Hollandaise
- Canadian bacon
- English muffin
- Smoked paprika
This is one of the least destination-specific entrées on the menu, making it a familiar option for guests who do not necessarily want Hawaiian-inspired food.
Blackened Mahi-Mahi Sandwich
The Blackened Mahi-Mahi Sandwich adds a seafood option to the main courses.
It is served on a soft roll with:
- Sweet and spicy mayo
- Lettuce
- Tomato
- Red onions
- French fries
Mahi-mahi fits naturally into the tropical theme and provides an alternative to the pork, beef and chicken dishes.
Traditional Loco Moco
One of the most recognizable Hawaii-associated dishes on the menu is the Traditional “Loco Moco.”
The photographed menu serves it with:
- Fried eggs
- Pork patty
- Ham slice
- Sticky rice
- Green onion
- Mushroom gravy
Holland America’s version therefore uses its own combination of meat and accompaniments while retaining the rice, egg and gravy elements associated with loco moco.
Hawaiian Brunch Desserts
Two desserts appear on the photographed menu.
Haupia Cake
The Haupia Cake includes:
- Coconut pudding
- Sponge layer
- Cream frosting
- Toasted coconut
Haupia is a coconut-based Hawaiian dessert, making this the most directly Hawaii-inspired dessert on the menu.
Wild Berry Crisp
The second dessert is Wild Berry Crisp with:
- Crumbled topping
- Vanilla ice cream
This provides a more familiar alternative for guests who may not want a coconut-based dessert.
