Hilo Town Tavern Reviews
Quite possibly the worst place to get a DRINK. waited 20 minutes staring at the bartender who did absolutely nothing. Security seems to think this is some exclusive club where it takes the entirety of 4 minutes to look at an ID. Security seems to check all the visibly gay male bags but not any females. How you have a line almost out the door for drinks and just stare at people waiting to give you money? Just terrible business.
This is the third disappointing experience in a row. Tired of being ignored, messing up my order and just feel like I’m expendable. I’m done.
The best part about the Hilo Town Tavern is the Exhibit Gallery, which is attached to the dining area. For 8 1/2 years the Exhibit Gallery has supported many of the artists in Hilo and has been a major cultural icon. The Exhibit Gallery supports the First Friday Art Walk and other major Hilo events. I highly recommend visiting this gallery.

Hilo Town Tavern is a friendly establishment with fantastic bartenders who craft great beverages. The menu offers delectable food, although some items may differ from descriptions. The attentive and patient staff provides excellent service, even during busy times. Visitors can savor tasty chicken strips and tots, as well as the satisfying BBQ pork sandwich. The tender and well-seasoned ribeye steak exceeds expectations. The tavern features live music, including Hawaiian tunes, which add to the lively atmosphere. Guests can enjoy casual, chill vibes and explore the selection of beers, including a nicely priced beer tower. The moco loco is a great menu option, and the lava burgers and wings are beyond expectations. The outdoor patio, pool tables, and live music create a vibrant ambiance, making Hilo Town Tavern a popular downtown destination for a late-night meal and drinks.
