My experience is this...one older woman who bartends has a very sour disposition will ignore you if you are not a regular.

I love this bar. The staff here are so nice and accommodating. They have a beautiful view on the lanai out back and a few cats that may come by and say hello. If you're hungry, try some pupus here. They have plenty choices. This is the best hidden gem in Hilo!

We’ve lived here for over a year and never knew this place existed til now! Came in Saturday night and there were a handful of people. The vibes were great. Awesome music, amazing food (came out super hot!), and the people are kind.

Love it here! We’ll be back for the October 25th spooky friday 🙌🏽

Spent a week in Hilo since 2019. I was familiar with Hilo town and all the tourist spots and decided to hangout with the locals and found the Hale Inu sports bar is more special than the other local bars it’s more like the Cheers sitcom where “everyone knows your name” I walked in as a stranger and left feeling belonging. The Barmaids Margie, Pua and JoJo will make you feel like a local before you finish your first beverage. As the days went by I noticed different parts of the day had different personalities. The drink specials, pupus, dart boards , pool table, patio deck and park lake view makes this place a must stop on your visit list. Evenings the karaoke comes alive especially on free nights and the local pool sharks gather for open pool tournaments and everyone is welcome even the ladies here have high skill level in the 8 ball pool game. I’ll be back next year hopefully my pool game will improve and I’ll be looking for Max, Derrick, Babe, Darren, Joyce, Ross, Matt, Dennis, Howie,Gwen, Janice, Johnny, Gabe,Hansel, Donovan, Laurie and JoJo. I had great conversations with everyone I met and respect you all and hope to see you next year or maybe sooner. Mahalo be blessed. Dex

A bar at the end of the street. The atmosphere is suspicious, but the staff are friendly.
