Organic local flavors. Delicious. Out of the way but worth it. Order around back. Choice from traditional flavors to exotic. Just a few one lane bridges past Hanalei. Only notice would be no cell service up this far. Hope they leave it that way.

The food was amazing I especially loved their bbq sandwich. The people where very nice and there was even a cute dog.It is also just such a cute little snack shack with very friendly people.
Kid-friendliness: They have good food and drinks for all ages 10 and above I would say
Wheelchair accessibility: It has a little ramp and is very exesable

We went for the shave ice (which we had for dessert), but also ended up ordering the bbq pulled chicken and tuna melt sandwiches, and a smoothie bc they sounded so good. It was all absolutely delicious. The toasted bread was perfect, the chicken and tuna fresh and mouthwateringly good, and the smoothie was super thick and flavorful with tons of organic frozen fruit...oh, and the shave ice the best I have ever tasted. They use organic color and flavor. Do yourself a favor and go eat here! Yup, there's usually one person doing it all, but who cares? You're on Island Time! (and it didn't even take that long...)

Tucked in behind small grocery store. Delicious shaved ice, sandwiches, and smoothies. I stopped in twice in September and both times I wasn't disappointed. Yes, it's expensive and service is slow but take a chill ... sit and relax while you're waiting.

Horrible! Toast with cheese nothing more! Completely dry. Worth 2$ Smoothie was with no real fruit

We always stop for shave ice as often as possible when on island.This was our least favorite and the most expensive!It get it - don’t panic, it’s organic…. But it’s also really boring and lacking flavor. Definitely not enough syrup either.I really don’t get the pricing here.It’s ice- seriously… frozen water! How does it cost more than a breakfast sandwich and same as smoothies with real fruit?Pricing here makes no sense.We stopped at 6 different shave ice places and this was the most expensive and least favorite by far!Maybe their food or smoothies or bowls are great.This review is for shave ice—- pass and go somewhere else!And they charge tax on shave ice. That was a first too.

We were so happy to discover that The Swell has arrived in the space formerly occupied by Sushi Girl. I had a fantastic grilled cheese sandwich that was presented beautifully with a plumeria blossom as a garnish. The ice cream and shave ice are superior to the ones you get in town, and it is an honor to support this tiny business. As the only game in town on the western edge of the north shore, we appreciate its presence!

Looking for a little shop and found this gem. Plenty of sandwich and chips for the price.

Charming shop for snacks and smoothies! Nice selection of sandwiches, shaved ice and delicious smoothies as well as other goods. Great spot for a treat after a day at the beach. The berry ono smoothie was great and I loved my mango madness - real fruit, almond milk and either honey or chocolate on the cup! Yum!
