🌺 Lani’s Island Snacks – Dried Mango DelightI tried the dried mango snack from Lani’s Island Snacks, and wow—what a tropical treat! Perfectly chewy, naturally sweet, and bursting with sun-kissed flavor. It’s like a bite of Hawaii in every piece. Definitely a must-try if you love fruit done right!
A must stop anytime you are in HILO.

Don’t go anywhere else in Hilo except here! The food was absolutely delicious- no frills, authentic, traditional, homemade, Hawaiian foods. Incredibly sweet and kind people working there, something about it felt like home. I can see myself if I lived in Hilo that this would be my regular spot. Make sure you go inside and buy some snacks!!

Both a delicatessen and Hawaiian cuisine, this place is perfect for grabbing a quick snack or tasting local specialties. Inexpensive and delicious, go for it.

Our family of 4 stopped here after visiting Carlsmith beach and had the teriyaki burger, a plain cheeseburger and the rice bowl with pork, and shave ice. Yum!! Was quick and very tasty, nice service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Quick, fresh made and well priced!
I am not big on snacking but my daughter and father-in-law are and there stamp of approval is a good thing. Very clean, bright and organized shop. With pandemic only two guests allowed at a time back in Dec 2021. My daughter was impressed with selection of candies especially the Airheads, which were cheaper as singles than most places on Oahu. They had a good selection of island favorites like li hing mui and other crack seed stuff packaged. Will be back.
Lani's always go above and beyond to satisfy their customers. If it's not in stock, they will notify you when it arrives. They will also ship orders to outside destinations. Talk about the ALOHA SPIRIT. It is so awesome to encounter a business where you feel like family.....?
Local snacks if you like just something simple to snack on or craving that musubi, taro chips, cotton candy or teriburger. Lani's snack shack is the place to go. Reminds me of the old kawate seed shop.
