Surf Bar Waikiki

Cocktail bar

👍👍 We visited Surf Bar twice on our visit to Oahu! Chuck and Elise were such kind people. They took great care of us, told us local recommendations, and shared their lives with us. The menu drinks are fabulous, but Chuck made us a couple of off-menu drinks based on our preferences. The prices are high...

👍👍 Didn't do the tour. Just stopped in ad hoc. Cool place in a small industrial area. They had just finished distilling a new lavender gin and we were the first to taste it!! They have a happy hour with some featured cocktails. Perfect. Highly recommended!!

The Green Lady Room

Cocktail bar

👍👍 Maddie and Mason make you love this place. While recently visiting HI, I stumbled across this amazing bar and it’s awesome culture. You enter through an unnoticeable entrance- and will only notice it if ajar. The vibe is speakeasy-esque, but with a great outdoor area, really neat private nooks, an...

Podmore

Restaurant

👍👍 I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere here; everything was so refined and beautiful, with every detail perfectly matched. Of course, this place positions itself as a cocktail bar, so you shouldn't expect anything else. If you're hungry and on a tight budget, I wouldn't recommend coming here, as the po...

The Lei Stand

Cocktail bar

🫤 A huge disappointment. This was the worst speakeasy we've ever been too. This place is so boring. There's nothing exciting about the place or the food. The portions are so tiny and the prices are so high. I usually don't mind inflated prices if the place is worth it, but this isn't. They crammed eve...
