50 Best Bars near Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam

“This is a great bar to hit after golfing at Hickam Par 3. The drinks are nice, cold and cheap. The service is great and the servers were super nice and welcoming. Small club house but offers plenty for before and after golf. You can’t beat AC and cold beer at 8$ for a large! They also give half pitchers!!“

“~2008, had just gotten back from Iraq and they placed me here overnight. Yes, the room was humid, I had a gecko or two roaming around, and place was dated. Pretty sure I had a paranormal experience that night, too. Or maybe just sleep paralysis :).“

“It may not seem like much at first glance, with a limited selection of drinks to choose from at this bar, but a few good pointers to note is the drinks range from about 4.50-5, and have a decent cost on pitchers too. There is a restaurant next door that serves wings, jerk chicken, and a few other things that you can buy that they can serve to you at the bar. The bar also has a decent amount of high table seating inside, and plenty of tables outside, with some being under the cover of the extension of the roof. The biggest takeaway is the fact that they have 4 pool tables, and you can rent a set of balls for free, on the condition that you have to turn in a form of ID, likely your CAC. When it's not busy and people aren't waiting to rent balls, you can play until close. Otherwise, you'll only be able to rent for 1 hour and wait for your turn. The atmosphere is generally nice, and the music ranges from Techno for one playlist, to multiple forms of Rock, to some popish music. Maybe you can request, but otherwise a DJ does come around once a weekend.“

“Superb experience! Delicious burgers with thick succulent patties, and the mai-tais are made perfect. Huge lanai with pool table, music, and breeze while providing shade. Jeanette makes the best mai-tais. The menu is priced well below beach side locations offering a superior value! Thank you Hickam Air Force Base for a wonderful experience.“

“Kimo is such a great guy. My Hawaii trip had taken a turn for the worst and I admittedly went to his beach bar to drink some sadness away. Ended up meeting tons of great people there including Kimo. On my last day in Hawaii he gave me a goody bag with some original Hawaiian treats and a nice calendar. I promised him a bottle of Canadian maple syrup next time I'm in Hawaii and I'm looking forward to sharing a drink with him again.

Beautiful views, delicious drinks for a great price, and perfect place to cross paths with some truly beautiful people inside and out.“

“My friend and I flew in today and are flying out tomorrow morning. She said we need Poke! So after looking up reviews and hearing good things about Monarch ..we were on our way! A short Uber ride later we ended up in this little place with huge portions of different kinds of Poke. I am not a a spicy type eater so the poke nachos I had were perfect and the Ube cheese cake delicious. So fresh! I'm glad we found this hidden gem and I hope you find it too!“

“Such a fun place. They have swing chairs at the bar. love it!!“

“I highly recommend coming here - especially when Laura is working!! She is such a baddie💪 Highly attentive, VERY knowledgeable about their craft beer, and was super helpful/accommodating with food! We were there to watch a football game, and even though my team played horribly, I still had an amazing time, because of Laura’s hospitality and service❤️“

“I’ve been here multiple times with my family and it’s always been a great experience. Tasty drink drinks great service and good music and vibes plus EP are my initials lol. Not much seating so if it’s a Friday or the weekend, I’d make reservation reservations.“

“Fantastic bar and cigar lounge in Waikiki. It was a joy to visit after a nice dinner and relax. Service quality is out of this world and education opportunity for all other bars and restaurants. Secret treasure. I cannot recommend more for those cigar aficionados. Curtis is excellent host.“

“Music and atmosphere is outstanding! Fun place to listen to good music while enjoying a beverage!“

“Me and my daughter visit here in November we went the waitress. They call her. Hennessy and Roland were so nice. The hookah was good. Good environment. I recommend if you’re ever in Hawaii this is the hookah lounge to visit. good vibes and you can also bring one bottle. I think there are trying to get their liquor license. They don’t have food right now, but you can definitely order food. Trust you will enjoy.“

“We highly recommend Moani island Bistro.The owners have created a wonderful choice of food and all of the staff are awesome! Their food was delicious and the wait staff especially Raina and the two brothers that work the bar were so much fun. The owner came out and introduced herself. We loved it so much we went three times on our stay! 10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Paniolo Bar & Café (in the lobby of The Equus Hotel) is officially in my rotation now—and the fact that it’s a quick 5-minute walk from my place? Dangerous. In the best way.

I didn’t even eat this time (yet), but I will be back for food—possibly today.

Let’s talk drinks:
My first one… no idea what it was called, but it was red and perfect 😂
Then I had a passion fruit + pineapple margarita that was chef’s kiss—fresh, balanced, and exactly what you want when you’re in this mood.

But the real standout? Ben behind the bar.

Attentive, personable, and just gets it. The kind of bartender who elevates the whole experience without trying too hard.

The vibe is relaxed, local-friendly, and low-key elevated—exactly the kind of spot you don’t want to gatekeep, but also kind of do.

If you’re in Ala Moana and want great cocktails with even better service, this is it.

I’ll absolutely be back!“

“I met 3 friends for dinner here last night. We each ordered a sandwich or a burger. I ordered the BLT b/c they offered to substitute the bacon with avocado. But then they were out of avocados. No big deal, the LT on sourdough was good. More vegetarian options on the menu would be nice. It was a bit loud by the bar, so I'd recommend asking for a table away from it. Overall, the value was decent. It seems like a Honolulu dinner out with a mocktail these days costs about $40/person, and that tracked here.“

“You will meet people that love to talk and have a great time. Bring any food in .. your lunch or dinner and have some drinks. The prices are reasonable and the last dive bar left in Waikiki. Come meet new friends on your visit - Aloha“

“I find Mimosa is quite easy to make.“

“This place is amazing! We pulled up and thought it was just a grocery store. Turns out it’s an amazing bar, great food, and awesome staff! Ryan, Hassan, Mary, Thomas, and Jae were all great! The fresh “Chef’s Poke Creation” is to die for, as are the drinks.

Highly recommend! Never thought a grocery store would have one of the best bars in the area, but it’s true!“

“Such a great experience at the Barefoot Bar! We hosted a promotion party here and everything was seamless. Dustin, the bar manager, went above and beyond to make sure our group was taken care of. The atmosphere is beautiful, service was fantastic, and it made for a really special celebration. Highly recommend for events or just a great night out!“

“I am new to the island and her for work. I came here with some friends and felt absolutely welcome by the staff. They were friendly, and the food was outstanding! Tosha deserves a raise!

Support this business at all costs!“

“Awesome food, cold beer and friendly staff!!!“

“Absolutely love this place! A home away from home! The staff is great and I love the atmosphere! They do great theme parties and make them fun! Great dancers. Highly recommend when you visit/live in Hawaii!“

“Great place close to the ocean.“

“Best appetizers and drinks I’ve had in a very long time“

“Great location. Excellent food and wonderful beer / wine. Neil is fantastic. Love this place!“

“was there recently on my trip with the best company. (I was travelling from Australia). Loved it! Totally going back again early May 😃“

“Fried Chicken is the best“

“You wouldn't expect this place to be as amazing as it is. But it always is. My family comes here all the time because we live just down the road, and we feel like it's absolutely the best restaurant in this area of the island. The service is consistently friendly. Everything we've tried off the menu, we've enjoyed. The setting is fantastic, especially watching the sunset over the golf course from the patio. My kids like playing on the grass area while we wait for food, and we like that they have a grilled cheese for our toddler and you can order it without fries. But get the fries, they're yummy, especially the garlic fries. We love the salt and pepper pork, the chicken sandwich, all the sushi rolls, the salads...and more. You can't go wrong. It can get busy in the evenings though, so it's better to make a reservation (even though we don't, we've sometimes had to wait long).“

“i love the beef and chicken kebob. the koko brownie was to die for. they offer wide variety of alcoholic drinks. prices are very reasonable. parking is conveniently located at the back of the restaurant.“

“Great place to catch the football game today! Great screens, friendly staff and fun guests!!!“

“Loved this place! Marco and his gang are fantastic! Treated us very well. If you’re looking for a cool local place to decompress from hustle and bustle in Honolulu, this is the place! ❤️👍🏻“

“I recently moved to Chinatown from east Oahu and decided to check out Hanks… walking distance from my apartment!! What a gas!!! Loved the live music and huge variety of patrons. The bar tender was skilled and conversational and made this old lady who’s solo, feel welcome and comfortable!!👍🏼👍🏼“

“We found this bar by accident. It was part of our best experience in Hawaii. The bartenders and customers were so welcoming. We had such a blast and loved not paying tourists prices🥃🏝️🙏🏼❤️“

“I only write google reviews for the places that I really love and Bevy was one of my favorite place to visit when I was in Hawaii. They have amazing list of cocktails and the bartender was super attentive! Enjoyed my time here and food was good too! They made my birthday extra special 🎂“

“Davey’s is our favorite local bar in Waikiki. Davey himself was so welcoming and accommodating. The staff was excellent! We loved the Smash Burgers on Sunday! We came to watch football and were treated like family. Dog friendly as well! Will be back next time.“

“Really local spot, the bar staff is amazing. They always make sure they’re taking good care of you. The food isn’t the priority but it’s good when you order. The drinks are good and the atmosphere is very welcoming if you play your cards right. Keep in mind this is a local spot so come in humble and you might get a spot at the bar. If you do, it’ll be your new favorite spot.“

“Could just be a preference, the fish toco where a little dry. Crispy pork, i prefer the vegetables mixed and a little more vinegar bite in the sauce. Garlic fries, again it could just be preference, it just didn't feel like Garlic fries im used to getting. It just wasn't mixed more like melted butter. Poke nachos... it was good just the sauce wasn't that spread out as much. Overall it was good atmosphere. For taste. To each their own.“

“Quick and friendly service! They were so kind and accommodating with replacing our cocktail soju when I realized their Dubai Chocolate was made with matcha, and treated me extra special on my birthday (even on a Sunday night). My boyfriend and I love the karaoke rooms and the Ube Latte soju, and the KFC is the best!!“

“A hidden gem! Super friendly people, great food with large portions! We are here on vacation from Alabama and this ranks as one of our favorite finds on the island!“

“Stopped by LBLE bar twice on our NYE trip to Waikiki.

The 1st time, we stopped by for a drink, waiting for our room. We were able to catch the Saturday afternoon football game on the huge TV, grab HH drinks and some lau lau nachos.

The 2nd visit, we went to watch the week 18 49ers vs Seahawks game, we ordered HH drinks and was able to order from Blake's secret menu! Blake went out of his way to make us a rootbeer float.

The great service from Blake the bartender is what drove us to come back for a 2nd visit. We enjoyed our time spent in LBLE Lounge and will definitely visit again when we are in the area. Shout out to Blake for making our visit enjoyable.

We definitely recommend the Guava cooler and the secret menu item rootbeer float!“

“It was an unexpected surprise. Not fancy, but a nice casual atmosphere to grab a quick bite to eat. Have passed it many times not realizing what we were missing. Have tried a few times in the last year but always seemed to miss when they were open. Will definitely stop in again when I am at USCGS to pick up supplies from Ability 1.“

“I have been to this bar twice and both times have been an amazing experience. The second time I went I had many questions about recommendations on a type of sake and Michael was able to make sure I had the best intel on sake because he was super knowledgeable on everything they sold! I had an amazing experience and recommend to all others. Thank you Michael!“

“I’m from out of town and I found this bar because all of the other ones were “ugh”. When I came to Club Wave, I felt so welcomed. The bartender, Makamae was great. The owner and his family are great. The atmosphere, people, and the conversations are great. When I came back, everyone remembered me by name. I used to have two favorite bars that I would go out of my way to go to. Now, I have three.“

“Great drinks 🍸 great food, great customer service“

“I was skeptical at first. There was no way a bar could cook up some grinds. I was wrong. Everything we ordered was bomb. You thirsty? The break room. You hungry? The break room. You both?? You already know. You gotta try this place; or don’t. Idc, cause if you don’t come, I’ll always have a table… lol. But seriously, you gotta try umm. They got brunch specials of you ain’t a night owl…“

“I called Mauka2Makai to get an emergency detail done because I had spilled liquid in my vehicle. They accommodated me in their schedule for me to come in that same day to get my vehicle done. My vehicle was sanitized, cleaned and looked brand new when they were done and I am a very happy customer. I will definitely be returning for my ceramic coating and recommending their services to all my Family and friendsServices: Clay bar treatment“
