Food Scene

One of the best breakfast places in Honolulu! Pros: Amazing food, vibrant atmosphere, great bagels and espresso. The only cons: long waits especially on weekends, and cash only.

Overpriced? Definitely. But getting a table here for dinner around 6pm, right along the beach, will afford you the best view of a Waikiki sunset that is to be had. Check sunset times & book ahead!

Amazing breakfast buffet daily, 7am-10am, $15 for all you can eat. Sundays at ~4pm there is a live band, plenty of locals, military, & tourists - a true melting pot with fun for all.

REALLY good burgers, great "American" food, kinda loud piped rock music in the background but better for conversation than Lulu's.

My favorite ramen of all time! This is a Japanese franchise - I believe it is the only US location. Walking distance from my place. Cash only.

Inside the Hale Kulani. Gorgeous restaurant, beach views, amazing service. I recommend Sunday brunch - it is amazing food and most reasonably priced. It's pretty pricey over all. Dress code.

Everything Else

Great variety of yoga classes just one block from the BnB. Drop-ins accepted. There is a separate building that has the hot classes, right across the street from the main building.

Drinks & Nightlife

Decent bar food, reasonably priced. Plenty of beers on tap. Live music most nights, Wednesday - Saturday. Usually it's too loud to have good conversation here.

US chain bar and restaurant. Hundreds of beers (and ciders) on tap. No beach view, but there are plenty of young and fit military folks here. Pretty good food, but it's slightly overpriced.

Amazing food, "pupu" style. "Pupus" are technically appetizers, but at Uncle Bo's they are more similar to "tapas" (shared dishes).
