👍👍 The sugar free shave ice, tastes like a unicorn’s BUTT. Every normal flavor of shave ice is amazing, best on the island. Favorite is mango and vanilla ice cream. Always a great time! People often mention snacks, snack, good,

    Their Okra Chips is terrible flavor... Smells old oil. Baby Scallops was pretty good, but lil expensive. Fried Shrimps are good too. They have Boba tea, Shave ice, smoothie, coffee etc... July, Shave ice is okay, they have no sugar flavors!

    Thanks for the “extra” in my Cuttle Fish (Hot) bag. It was rubberlucious. 🙄

    Ordered a chunky monkey shake that was supposed to be a banana, peanut butter, and chocolate shake but only tasted peanut butter butter and tasted like it was made with ice. Shakes should be made with ice cream and be thick and creamy this was not

    Tidy, clean, cozy shop full of your fav snacks! Always find something to satisfy my sweet tooth here.. they also have these cute sample bags for $1.25 that's great if you only want a few pieces to try before committing to a larger package.

    It’s my first time to Oahu and Aloha Stadium Swap meet. Lin’s market seemed to be reliable as the booth was clean and there were many products to choose from. The cashier who explained what is Li Hing powder was nice. I picked a dried Li Hing mango slice and a bag of fresh pineapple with Li Hing. I asked her to pick a good bag for me as there were several bags in front of her. She checked and pick one from the bottom and told me that’s nice and cold. When we opened the bag, 2/3 of it were pineapple core which were so hard that we could not even eat it. I felt so disappointed at this experience. Just want to share to help others who are new to the island. The mango slice is good! I wish I bought a large bag.

    It's such a cool Hawaiian snack food store. The selection was way too much to comprehend. Luckily, they have small sampler bags you can try. So we ended up getting quite a few of these smaller sample bags to try a bunch of things.

    A store featuring a wide variety of local treats and crack seed near Ward Village. You can bet you’ll always find something to satisfy that snack craving and likely walkout after buying 2-3 (or more) snack varieties. Not too many of these types of stores left on the island, but so very missed.

    The people here are wonderful and helpful. They have awesome shave ice and tons of crack seed

    If you grew up eating crack seed, haw flakes, kakimochi, dried cuttlefish, and li hing mui everything, you'll be in heaven here! Like a local kid in a candy shop! Whenever I come here I always ending buying twice as many things as I had originally planned. They have a variety of drinks and shave ice, too. As soon as I walk in and see the jars of crack seed my mouth starts watering! Lin's has sweet, salty, spicy, sour--and everything in between--snacks to satisfy your every taste craving!

    Huge selection of snacks. Includes both savory and sweet options. A bag of snacks costs around $5.

    love this snack shop where I can buy all of my favorite local snacks and treats. and they sell drinks like milk teas, iced teas, shave ice, and icees. the parking is a paid lot ($2/hour?), so I recommend finding street metered parking.

    Super unfriendly employees... all transaction. No smiles, doesn't feel welcome or anything alike. What a shame I spent too much here. There's even a sign said " good vibes only". That needs to be taken down. ... just saying what I experienced.

    Stopped by today for a last minute funeral gift for a family member. Hoping to find pre made gifts baskets to grab and go. Unfortunately there were none, ask if I could just grab snacks myself/ basket and have them just wrap in quick cellophane. Told I needed to call in advance, at least 2 days. Which if I pick everything out, how long does cellophane take? Two workers on, the one I spoke to said...they are busy putting away inventory today and had one basket to complete already. I just stood there in awkward silent for a few minutes.... They were too consumed with inventory to even care that a sale for something important walk out. Way better help from tx max & whole foods putting a basket together.
