50 Best Bars near Waimanalo

“a longtime established place great people food and karaoke..always a blast“

“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❤️“

“This place is amazing. If you’re around this area it is definitely worth the visit. The drinks are amazing(especially the lava flow) and the man who runs it is so nice and welcoming, he gives free waters with any drinks he makes. The view alone is worth the trip, right in front of the ocean with plenty of seats and music. I make it a point to come here when I’m visiting Hawaii.“

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

“From the first time you ring the bell to when you're smoking stellar cigars and sipping on amazing old fashioned cocktails...this is the SPOT! Owned by a renowned family and with hospitality to boot...if you don't come here ya being square!“

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

“Amazing drinks, we go back for the pho highball and pretty much any of their cocktails. The bartenders are super friendly and helpful about questions with the menu or substitutions. The drinks are beautiful, have fun garnishes, and super creative!“

“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“

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

“This is hands down the best bar in Honolulu. Small but mighty thanks to the very comfortable outdoor setting and ESPECIALLY the friendly, caring and expert service from Matt and Yulia. The drinks are reasonably-priced (don't miss the 4-6 p.m. happy hour!), and they are professionally made with top-shelf liquor. And not just dog friendly, but dog welcoming - they love your dog. If you are out walking your dog, stop by for a drink while your dog relaxes in the cooling ocean breeze that runs through this place. Highly recommended!“

“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! ❤️👍🏻“

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

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

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

“Great place for cheers and fun! Very much a family!“

“This outdoor bar is fantastic. The Mai Tai's are fantastic and not to be missed. They open at 11am and serve until 10pm. There is live music most evenings. There is walk up service at the bar or take a seat at one of the umbrella covered tables for table service. Winnie is a fantastic server and has worked there over twenty years. Find one of her tables, you won't be disappointed.“

“I find Mimosa is quite easy to make.“

“The food will surprise you with how well executed it is. Oyster and Opihi shooter are a must try, if they're not sold out.

The service is always attentive, prompt and socially gregarious. Thank you to the team at Remixx bar & grill for good eats and memories. Highly recommend!

P.S. bring cash for the digital jukebox 🤭
P.S.S karaoke room available 🤫“

“Came for drinks, stayed for the Ethiopian set menu ... $39 per person for the food, and about $70 all in with one drink each and tip. Good if you want to try something different.

The spread comes out on one big shared platter with lamb, beef, chicken, and veggies. As a Filipino, it instantly reminded me of a boodle fight ... everything piled on one large plate, everyone eating with their hands and dipping the homemade crepe like bread into the dishes. Fun, communal, and good.

Good assortment of flavors, and the drinks were solid as always. Worth a try if you're curious.“

“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.“

“Icon scene on Waikiki Beach! Top notch service. 🌺“

“Everything!! Atmosphere is great wonderful staff & you get to make a lot of good memories there . I know I did in the past 3 years….“

“Great place close to the ocean.“

“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.“

“We originally came to Pint + Jigger for a special that, unfortunately, was no longer being served. However, we were pleasantly surprised by all the other great selections on the menu.

The burger was amazing—a true highlight of Hawaiʻi’s burger scene. I’m not going to call it the absolute best, but it is definitely up there with the best. If you want to know which burger currently holds my top spot, you’ll have to read my other reviews. Either way, Pint + Jigger makes a pretty damn good burger.

The salad was also a hit with my entire family. We added the blackened marlin, and it was fantastic. The fish was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. That level of quality wasn’t necessarily something we expected from a pub, but they absolutely delivered.

The drink menu also offered an excellent selection of delicious local brews—not just beer from one represented brewery, but choices from several different local producers. I love having a place where I can enjoy great food while trying a variety of fresh local beers.

Great burgers, perfectly cooked fish, a family-approved salad, and plenty of local brews—Pint + Jigger was an excellent surprise.“

“Excellent food!👍🏽 Friendly staff & loved the service!👍🏽👍🏽“

“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.“

“We were invited here as a grp so we stopped in. They hv hot dogs and pop corn available in the bar. Also jerky. Cute little place, I was not there on a sunday but they have a big crowd for burgers on sundays. My friends enjoyed there professionally made Bloody Mary's. The guy whose name is guy I think was friendly and a pro behind the bar. Will definately stop in again.“

“There were several hostesses at the counter when we checked in, but unfortunately, the initial interaction did not feel very welcoming. They didn't seem particularly friendly, and while we were waiting to be seated, it appeared that one of them smirked at us. This left us feeling uncomfortable and gave us a poor first impression. For a restaurant like Ruscello, we expected a warmer, more welcoming greeting and a higher level of hospitality from the moment we arrived“

“Crazy friendly. We went on a Friday afternoon and headed out for some dinner and then went back later because of how friendly and welcoming they were.If your an Elk and on Oahu, make sure not to miss this great Lodge where the sense of Elkdom comes through strong.“

“I enjoy this place a lot. The beer selection is fantastic. The ambience feels mellow but definitely not boring. The video games provide nostalgia. I highly recommend it.“

“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!!👍🏼👍🏼“

“Best garlic shrimp I’ve ever had! I’ve been to 15+ eateries ordering the same dish on the mainland and the Hawaiian islands. The guava fried chicken and Lilikoi Pie were epic too! �“

“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!!“

“I felt adventurous and tried the 400 Rabbits cocktail. The taste was delicious! However, it is literally served in a thimble. The Maka 'ako mule has to be my favorite with the old fashioned martini coming in second. Of course I haven't tried ALL the drinks... The cosmo is pretty yummy too“

“Bar 35 is a great place to go with friends to have drinks on the cheaper side, and to dance. the music selection is nice, and the bartenders are great despite how much people are there getting drinks constantly. The place can get very packed, so if you aren’t fond of such a thing, then I’d recommend going somewhere else, but it’s a great time. I’d also recommend you get an uber to the place, because there’s only paid parking and the lots are quite small. there is meters on the street though if you’re fine parking there.“

“Owner from Golden Gate Lounge, has a strong Korean personality that I like. 🥴💕“

“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!“

“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!“

“Tiffany, was nothing short of amazing. She tended to us like we were family even during a night that she was working with a skeleton crew. This place is awesome. Great spirit selection, great vibe, fully outdoors, sells their own cigars, live music. What more can you ask from a single location. EVERYONE needs to go to this place. Even if it's for a few hours.“

“I absolutely loved the fresh food and the staff was awesome Friendly and made you feel welcome Will definitely return to this establishment“

“Amazing! Had a blast at the bar the HH has $2 oysters which is a steal in Hawaii. Also had some Paloma’s and Mai Tais and the sliders. the pool vibe was awesome dj during the day and Ramon is the best bartender even recommended some places to go for clubbing and took good care of the hubby and I service is top notch and we will be back next vacation for that reason!“

“When you’re not enticed by the hot bar offerings or you just want to be waited on, Two Tides Bar is a great option. Pub style food cooked to your liking - the menu’s not extensive but you can’t go wrong with any order.“

“Great little speakeasy above Aloha Beer!“

“This bar is a good street side location, and has an excellent happy hour special each day of the week. You can’t beat the happy hour special prices, $12 for a draft beer and burger/tacos/pulled pork etc. depending on the day, the pulled pork is my favorite. Excellent draft selection of local beers. Dog friendly lanai. Staff are also very friendly. Our favorite place for happy hour in Kailua.“

“Great food and friendly service. I love this place!“
