So you’re looking for a great place to start your evening off in Honolulu – not many would guess that one of the best places to go is on the 4th floor of Oahu’s huge Ala Moana Shopping Center. But there is exactly where you will find one of the best bars in town which constantly is in the top or the running or close to the top for having the best Happy Hour in the city! Best part about it – one of the few places on island where parking is - No Problem!
Kick back and take in the trade winds in this no walls establishment while sitting on plush tropical furniture listening to the sounds of island music. Some nights that island is Hawaiian – others it is Jamaican. Live local music usually starts at 4pm Monday-Friday, and 1pm on the weekends and nightly about 9pm-12:30am. And they do have a lot of great bands that come and play.
Friday and Saturday nights become packed house events by 9pm – so come a bit earlier if you want a seat and don’t want to stand in line. Sunday nights tend to be often packed as well – especially when one of the good local Reggae bands are playing.
Do stop in for a pint of Kona Longboard, which is a pretty good island brew. Their drink specials include a great variation of Mai Tais and other tropical drinks– as you might expect. They are well worth a try - and priced right during happy hour.
