Paniolo Bar & Cafe, Honolulu HI

Sweet little spot, and I hope I don’t ruin it by another good review… but I have visited each cafe within about 400 yards of this spot and found that none of them have the Aloha spirit at all, however, from the moment you meet the barista at Paniolo the staff exude a friendliness that is missing in Waikiki. Ben was manning the bar in the morning, and he was charming each day.
The morning Cofee is brewed with a good robusta style bean and the food is tasty, even including a home made breakfast muffin. I won’t visit again the bigger cafes in the nearby hotels, which have few redeeming qualities.

Open-air, off-lobby hotel bar with a fun atmosphere. Bartender Matt is very personable and chill. Great music too!

Awesome Artist who makes the coffee and drinks. I forgot her name as it is 3weeks later, but she was awesome and deserve a raise if she is still there (Boss ma'am).

This place is at the only family owned hotel left in Waikiki, and the bar is a wonderful cozy place to enjoy some drinks while feeling the breeze and listening to local music. The menu is simple and satisfying, and the folx working are very accommodating. I definitely recommend this place for a modern traditional experience that you will remember!

Go see Martha & Ulia…STAT! Ulia is a bartending barista/artist with a sense of humor & Martha is a sweetheart!

Fun little bar! Yulia, the bartender, was great! Even when she was super busy, she was engaging with the customers and always had a smile on her face.

Very small literal hole in the wall. You can find a better atmosphere within walking distance.

I met the sweetest people here. Including the cutest pair of puppies. I'm already crying missing this space. Just bursting with positive energy. ️

What a little gem! The cocktails are delicious and the vibe is very relaxed and homey. Anita the bartender is so fabulous!
