Old Waialua Sugar Mill Reviews
Cute location. Really neat how they took this historical location and turned it into cool little stores and other things.
Fun spot with local businesses making the best of old commercial buildings and a great start at highlighting the areas history. Hope they can work with the historical society to build a self guided tour. Placards would be good, but I have history nerd bias. The picture I included is new from my previous visit in December 2025. It was empty back then and not looking nearly so cheerful. I think it is some kind of farm stand. I will continue to take visiting friends and family...read full review
Cool coffee spot among other little shops. A tattoo shop and yoga place I think. Cool vibes and decent coffee and bagels. A little pricey but thats Hawaii.
