Must stop whenever we’re in town.

Good simple deluxe Royal burger. The French fries are thin style and crispy. Combined with a cold green river, what's not to love!

For nostalgic purposes came here to get food. Still a good burger but sometime your can tell from he fltexture of the patty if it freshly cooked or slightly advanced cooked. But overall Still great flavor. Got the HAL and the Royal double with French fries. Yes it was sunday so I expected a delay in getting the food, Still worth the wait. Overall I will always go back is there better possibly but you just can't go wrong with W&M.

Classic local burger joint that's been a staple in kaimuki. Been coming here off and on for years.
Simple burgers although their menu is confusing. You'll see when you look at the menu. My coworkers got the royal and hal burgers. I wanted to try the hot dog with everything and fries.
I asked for everything on it, but they forgot the Ketchup and relish. Had plenty of onions and mustard though. Hot dog hit the spot, burst with meat juices and savory. Lol Fries were nicely salted and crispy.
My coworkers and I ordered online, indicated 20mins however we had to wait there another 15 mins for the food. Lame.
Also I wish they had a dine-in or sitting area. Minor issue, we decided to drive back to the office and eat.
All-in-all. Good price, good food, good locations off of waialae ave, near chaminade university and across from the new FedEx store.

Not the same as I remember. Wanted a legit local cheeseburger and it would have been nice for the shriveled burger to maybe slightly peek out from between the cold bun and cold cheese slice, or for there to have been more sauce? Really disappointing, maybe I just got an old piece of meat or a new cook? but between the parking and paying $6.50 for a single flat cheeseburger, I won’t be back anytime soon.

I finally decided to try W&M Bar-B-Q after hearing all the hype, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. First off, the prices were surprisingly high for what they offer. I ordered a burger, and it was incredibly basic—nothing special about it at all. For the cost, I was expecting something more flavorful or unique, but it honestly felt like something I could make at home for a fraction of the price.

I left feeling disappointed and wondering what all the fuss is about. Definitely not worth the hype in my opinion. There are better places to spend your money if you’re looking for a great burger experience.

If you are one of those types that really wants to eat where the locals eat, this is the greatest hamburger stand in urban Honolulu. This is not just a teriyaki cheeseburger, but a W&M cheeseburger has such a unique flavor profile that If I had to flee the country, before I got on a plane I would stop and get a cheeseburger from W&M.

Vegetarian options: They have a veggie burger on the menu

Parking: Only six spots

Very small parking lot. Maybe 6 parking stalls. I could be wrong, but the burgers were good, but not $8 good. I forgot it's the Bidenomics era. It's been a while, but I remember $3.50 burgers. I won't be coming back, fries and drink included with the burger $15. As one plate lunch..... Very surprised on the prices.

My favorite burger in Kaimuki 😋 love the royal hamburger, green river, and the sweet potato dessert (when available)! I like to call ahead because there’s a long wait at lunchtime.

I went to high school down the road, although I no longer live in the area and the last time I visited was about 25 years ago, the food is still ONO,I took my 12 year old son and he even approved 😀🤙🏽

Parking is small, so be patient.

No dine in
