Hapa's Hawaiian Style Shave Ice

There’s no shade, and sitting inside isn’t allowed — a perfect spot to get sunburned while eating ice cream!

It was alright......when asked the owners for advice, we were treated with indifference. Compared to other shave ice I had, this was chunky and not as smooth as others.

Absolutely excellent...as is everything in Hawaii

We love Hawaiian Shave ice so we always try new places when we find them. This is a cute shop located not too far off the main road. The shave ice is good but needs to be a bit thinner and I wish there wasn't such a heavy upcharge for the organic flavors. Despite that it is still delicious. Recommend the Hanalei just don't bite too hard into the seed.

A+++++

Delicious shave ice bowl and friendly service. Will go back and tell my friends

This shave ice shop does not exist. We tried twice to find it and it does mot exist anymore.
We tried after seeing the Kilauea Lighthouse but the google maps sent us to a wrong street.
We also tried to walk and find it in the shopping center with the Kilauea Bakery, after eating at the Kilauea Fish Market, and even though we found the map legend that said it would be in that shopping area it is not there.
Take a picture and prove me wrong.
Also the owner needs to update their store information.

We tried several different shave ice places on the North Shore. Hapa’s is hands down THE BEST! Flavorful syrups, excellent coconut fluff, and amazing ice cream.

The regular shave ice here is superior to the shave ice place by Foodland, but you run the risk of it being closed after 1:30pm when they run out of ice. The Pau Hana specialty one is to die for. The Hapa and Surfer Girl were ok.

We stopped into the Kilauea Village and enjoyed a delicious shaved ice special at Hapa's - the Mango Bingsu is so refreshing and includes fresh mango. Definitely a good one to share as it's a large portion!

Came here at 4:30…. Closed when it’s suppose to close at 5:00pm. Sign on front says closed sometimes if run out of ice…. Well…. don’t run out of ice. I turned off the main road just to come here.

Had the Frother and it was excellent! Haven’t really tried a more rich and chocolate shaved ice before (more used to fruity and mochi), and it didn’t disappoint! Also the staff was super helpful and did not pressure you.

Friendly service and maybe we got a “bad one”. But our mango / pineapple shaved ice was mediocre at best. Not much pineapple syrup and the ice was more snow cone like. We’ve had better on the island. Didn’t finish which is a bold statement. That said, they were friendly.

Having tried several shaved ice places in this trip to Kauai, this has been the best so far. I had a tigers blood & mango shaved ice with a scoop of vanilla Ice Cream. It was amazing and hit the spot. The employee helping us was super friendly as well! Would recommend to anyone looking for good shaved
