    The Beach House is a great hang out. There is a cover charge but don't fret it is worth it. You can use Event Bright if this is a planned destination for your party or just you and purchase the presale for a discounted rate. The open-air atmosphere with all the amenities to make time fly by having fun throwing darts or a game of pool. If your looking for a bite to eat they have a big selection of your favorites to chose from burgers to wings. Drop in to grab a drink or dance the night away with cover bands or some of the best DJs spinning old school to now favorites. The best part is this spot is open till 2AM! So if you need a party after a party stop by the Beach House at Aloha Tower Market Place and hang out. Oh yeah another awesome thing the bar validates parking for a discounted rate! Enjoy!!!!

    Stopped here to kill time before heading to the airport and now we are wishing we found this bar sooner. Great laid back atmosphere with beautiful views over the water. Bartender is very friendly and makes you feel right at home. I cannot figure out why this places is not so much busier. Come on by, you won’t regret it.

    As a dance instructor who has travelled internationally, one of my favorite things to do is find the best local dance studios for social dancing and for teaching. Beach House stands out as they have social dancing and some teaching nearly every night. The dance floor is quality and the DJ's are good. The cover is between $15 to $20 with no drink, but parking is validated!

    My friends and I promoted this place ALL WEEK LONG and had the place packed out for a Friday night. All of the patrolmen even complimented that they’ve never seen so many ppl. Although the drinks weren’t bad, the service from the bartenders was HORRIBLE. 1 star, does not recommend. The vibe was very lit due to having DJ Polo, a well known DJ in the building and we couldn’t even enjoy it due to the disrespect the bartenders were giving everyone, not just my friends. Waited 20 mins + just for us to get their attention and for them to tell us “we’re not tipping anyways.” Didn’t know bartenders only got paid in tips. Overall 2 stars is befitting.

    The worst Halloween party…ever. Thankfully I was with good company, otherwise the night would have been ruined. The wait staff (particularly the blonde with the short hair) was incredibly rude. It took forever to get a drink and we all ended up staying only about an hour before we moved on. If you live in Oahu, or even visiting, avoid this place.

    We are on our honeymoon and we just disembarked from the star of Honolulu sunset cruise ship and found this bar right across the street with a really awesome live band playing and we paid $20 cover however the girl behind the bar who also claims to be the manager left us to be unserved at a half empty bar for almost 20 minutes and wouldn't even make eye contact with us. When we asked if we could get service she said that we needed to step to the service station to be served and I asked her if she only served there or at the whole bar, and replied if I wanted to be rude I could leave when I was only asking for service. So we left after tipping each round $5 to the male server for super weak captain and cokes. Do not recommend unless they get rid of the bad management and service.

    Meh - I'd skip The Beach House if you are choosing between this and anything within walking distance. If it's not within walking distance, I wouldn't consider it. I've been here a handful of times. Recently it seems they've started charging a $10 cover charge. They stated they had some highly-rated comedians performing that Sunday night - maybe, but we stopped by around 7PM and there was no one on stage. The bar was also empty. We intended to have drinks, food and play pool, not listen to comedians. We left. Previous visits were pleasant but lacking - good location, ok'ish service, typical food/beverage choices. It is absolutely not worth a $10 cover; there are better options nearby.

    Solid beach style bar by the dock. Cheap drinks, good food. The Hawaiian pizza and garlic fries are very good. Ellie took good care of us!

    Strongly recommend this place for a few $6 Mai-tai's before u get on that sunset cruise and pay $15 each. Great atmosphere could sit here all day.

    Nothing is on tap. Everything's in cans. It's a big space on the water, which seems promising. Cool shark statue, a couple pool tables, dart boards, space along the Aloha Tower Marketplace waterside. Service was good. I was there about 7pm, when it was dead, so I didn't have a cover charge. I was confused how they stay in business but was told it would pick up and be packed soon. When they hit their prime hours, suddenly the deafening (also canned) music (themed... it's different most nights and there's a schedule) started. A crowd quickly gathered before I could finish and leave. Has promise but not for me. Perhaps this place is mostly for ships unloading already-drinking passengers who want to drink more?

    Learn how to promote a proper dance night, cover shouldn't be charged when your bar is empty. Rude door person and missed opportunity to have people enter and drink in your empty establishment before your supposed evening rush. Parking sucks too. Not a place worth even looking at.

    Keoki was very helpful and very kind to my Brother and I! The waitresses were very generous! Loved the place! I can't waite to take my sister who is coming to visit tomorrow!!! Thank you Wai Kai Lookout! That was so Fun!!!

  • 5/5 Kaitlin G. 6 months ago on Google
    Low-key local spot with even more low-key swing dancing on Monday evenings starting 7:30p tucked away in the arcade just below the historic Aloha Tower. The people who work there (particularly Wai) made us feel right at home. Multiple different groups coexisted in the same space at the same time when we were there, everyone's just here to have a good time and hang out, so everybody brings their aloha. Mahalo to the staff for letting the group of swing dancers have a little bit of space in the back to do our weird little dances and for taking care of everyone.

    The bar tender was rude. They had signs up saying drinks were 2 for $8 yet charged me $22. Didn't provide itemiZed receipt . No menu. Kept yelling at me. Lost my card. Ended up finding it. No AC or fans. I honestly was just all around disappointed with my experience

    2023.11: my new fav waterfront chill locals ‘dive bar’. Friendly staff. (Limited booze menu: lots o basic beer, no wine, well booze drinks mainly). Sometimes live music.

  • 4/5 Claire Y. 10 months ago on Google
    Nice venue, sweet server, she was friendly, could be better with AC. Lots of TV screens. Also, would be better with about two more tables.

    Took my daughter here when she came in September. Drinks were watered down and overpriced. Music was decent. Very lame

    Great place to have a beer 🍺. Great conversations, pool tables, darts and an amazing view, conveniently located. I think I found a new hangout!

  • 5/5 Aniello S. 2 years ago on Google
    Stand up was very funny! Very nice people !!! $10 cover fee for the show.

    This is the closest you'll get to a dive bar near HPU. Service is excellent, beer options somewhat limited, but you have a steady stream of cruise ship passengers coming through that add a lot of life to the place. Although it is within close proximity to HPU, it's almost entirely devoid of students, most guests are tourists and/or cruise ship passengers waiting for departure.

    Great music, drinks, and food.

  • 5/5 Nikki K. 1 year ago on Google
    Went here on a Saturday to just have some drinks and dance 💃. DJs playing 70's 80's 90's and R&B music. First time here and it was great. Good drink specials. I definitely want to go back again. Thanks for a great night!

    New bar where Nashville's Waikiki used to be. The interior and vibe is essentially the same. Still have pool tables, darts, dance floor, corn hole. Right on the warf with expansive openings to the patio, providing a nice view of the port and channel.

    Very bad experience at Beach House Aloha Tower. My friend's handbag (wallet credit card cash ID and phone) and my phone were stolen while we were away from our table. Although the Manager reassured me that he would file a police report he did not take action. I found this out when I texted him the next day. Poor customer service.
