Red velvet bubble waffle with strawberry ice cream

elijah l.

Very cozy and fresh! The waffles were very tasty and not too sweet! Service was great. Although it was one person she spent her time making sure the order was made to perfect ! Will visit again!

Stephanie D.

Their waffle ice cream is sooo good. Got the ube with Oreo, pocky, and condensed milk. It was amazing, chewy, warm, and crispy. I'd definitely get it again if I'm in the area!

I love love love ice cream, so I HAD to try Double Three! The first time I came, I got the Matcha bubble waffle with an Ube Scoop, topped with Oreos and Mini Marshmallows. I will say that if you have a small appetite and you're with a friend who also has a small appetite, you should share your bubble waffle cone because I definitely couldn't finish mine! The bubble waffle was so yummy and fresh, and the Ube was definitely a strong Ube flavor and the combination couldn't be more perfect to me! I will say that in terms of toppings, it was a bit scarce and the oreo chunks could've been smaller, but it was an amazing dessert nevertheless! The second time I came, I came for their bubble tea to pair with my Little Sparrow bowl on the way back to my friend's house, and WOW, I 100% love their bubble tea! The tea I opted for was the Yuzu Passion Fruit Tea, and at 75% sweetness, it was JUST perfect for me, with its sweetness and fruity flavor. I will say that if you're in a rush, I would not come here if you see a line. In the two times I've visited, there's only been one employee working both the register and making the ice cream and bubble tea, so the wait is always pretty long. Also because there's only ever one employee, the interaction isn't always super helpful if you have questions and what not, especially if there are a ton of people ordering, which I understand! I definitely would stop by Double Three if you're a bubble waffle, ice cream, and/or bubble tea enthusiast! You'll walk away with something you can absolutely rave about :)

I was craving Double 3 soft serve ice cream and freshly made bubble waffles so we drove all the way out to Kaneohe for it! I have never been to this location and it's been a long time since I've had the one in town so I was shocked and disappointed to find out that soft serve wasn't an option. The store was small and smelled of dog when I first walked in. It was visually clean so I was surprised by the smell. There were just 2 young ladies working. They were friendly and efficient with service. The bubble waffles were as delicious as I remembered but the ice cream just didn't hit the spot. The kids ordered a couple drinks, I tasted both and they were good. Overall I would probably not return because I am hardly ever in this area and prefer soft serve.

Easy place to find. Lots of parking within walking distance. We parked near longs. Very small little shop with inside seating and a bench outside as well. Friendly staff but I think they usually only have 1-2 people working at a time so when a big group comes in be patient with your order. If they didn't have that little paper to tell you how to order everyone would be completely lost so that made it way easier for us. The waffle was great and freshly made. Ice cream was good and tons of toppings to choose from. Presentation and taste for me is 10/10 it's just a little pricey for me. For 2 waffle ones and 2 cups it came out to $50ish and we still gave a little tip so about $60 for 4 of us. We live in north shore so we figure we try something out on this side so for us it was still worth it.

My boyfriend and I shared a plain waffle with cookies and cream ice cream. Delicious! Love the rotating flavors and the waffle is exceptionally delicious! They make the dessert to-order and with care. I highly recommend sharing one, as it's a lot for one person. Plenty of free parking behind and seating inside as well as outside. I don't believe they have a restroom for customers. Friendly staff.

While visiting my college friends during Thanksgiving break, they took us to Double Three for an afternoon treat. OMG! Who can pass up on bubble waffles?!? There's a parking area so no need to park on the street. It's a small but a cute shop. You have to fill out an order form and then they'll perpetrate your order. You pick the type of waffle, ice cream flavor, and topping(s). We had: -Original waffle with vanilla ice cream, bananas and strawberries, and strawberry syrup -Chocolate waffle with vanilla ice cream, fruity pebbles and Nutella syrup The bubble waffles were delicious. Light, fluffy, you can easily pull each one apart, and the corner is crispy. The soft serve ice cream was rich and yummy. This is a perfect afternoon dessert on a hot day.

Cora L.

Yummy! The location in Kailua is in a strip of shops with a parking lot nearby. There is limited seating but it is in a cute area to walk around with your bubble waffle. Every time we have been, our order has been taken swiftly. It takes a bit of time to make the bubble waffle since it seems that it might be made to order. We got the bubble waffle with strawberry ice cream, sprinkles, and cookies. It was good -- very straightforward and delicious. A great spot for a dessert!

Kahea M.

Really good place for dessert and it is very customizable. It includes a lot of free topping options and many others for a small extra charge.

Mana H.

Nice spot in Kailua, the waffle cones are made fresh which is super nice! You can also choose what flavor ice cream and toppings you want! If you're looking for a sweet treat in the area I would recommend!

We ordered chocolate, macadamia nut, Strawberry on different waffles. They were all delicious! Highly recommend trying.

Grace S.

My husband and I love the crystal grape tea boba drink here. We always get it every time but we just came by tonight and ordered 3 large crystal grape tea boba drinks. All 3 of them did not taste or look how it normally does and it had slices of lime in it, which is normally not in the drink either. I can't even get myself to finish it. Hopefully this doesn't happen again because we actually love Double Three

Stephanie R.

If you're looking for a fun dessert spot definitely come here! We usually get the bubble waffle, they're so good & fun but I've even opted for just a scoop with some toppings and it was just as good - they have some of the best "specials" flavors! It's a cute little shop and I've had great interactions with the staff.

Second time back and now this is the Double Three experience that we know and love! After my first not so rave review, the owner did follow up with me to express his sincere apologies for a less than stellar experience. His response was genuine and acknowledged the shortcomings of our visit. He did offer me a free bubble set when I come again but when I stopped by today I purposely didn't mention who I was. When we arrived the owner was there and we were promptly greeted. It wasn't too busy and we placed orders quickly. I noticed that as soon as our first order was placed, he started the bubble waffle and then came back to finish the transaction. We ordered 3 bubble sets. The first one was done in less than 10 minutes. The subsequent ones were done within 5 minutes. The orders were made correctly and the toppings were plentiful. The ice cream scoops were significantly larger than when we came the first time. It actually filled the bubble waffle! The special ice cream of the day was Hawaiian Mud Pie and it was delicious. They offer other great flavors as specials of the day including salted caramel, ube, and cookies and cream. There was lots of free street parking right outside the store (free because it was a weekend but other times it's metered so bring quarters). The store was clean with about 7 tables and plenty of stools. Thank you to the owner for taking the feedback constructively and for being able to get this new store functioning at the same quality as the Kalihi store. We're spreading the word and will definitely be back! read more

This place is a must try. I loved that the waffle cone was surprisingly not hard but light and fluffy. The ice cream was so good. I would definitely eat just that in a cup alone. The toppings are fresh. The only down side is the wait. If you're in a group, everyone doesn't get theirs at the same time. It was only one employee taking all orders. I suggest going during the week just to be safe. read more

Fortunately, this Kailua location still serves premium ice cream. The Kalihi location became soft serve only like Sheridan st, and they don't have the creamy strawberry. I hope they don't change to soft serve. I asked the server if the Kailua location was going to eventually get soft serve too, but she had no idea what I was talking about. I really hope they continue to serve premium ice cream since I just discovered their special flavors. Instead of two scoops of chocolate that I usually get, I got one scoop of cookies and cream and one of mac nut crunch. It was awesome! read more

I am so happy they opened a location on this side of the Ko'olaus! I went to the Dillingham location as well and also loved it there! This place is so great! I am never disappointed! It can take some time to prepare your order but just remember that each waffle is made to order to ensure it is nice and hot when you get it. They are definitely worth the wait. Due to COVID-19 they take orders at the door I just bring my own pen, grab a order sheet and go back to my car to fill it out and come back when I am ready. You fill out one order sheet per item you are ordering (example: of you want 2 bubble waffles and 1 scoop of ice cream in a cup then you need 3 order sheets) Street parking is available right in front of their store. They're always so nice and apply to help here. Definitely recommend! read more

I went to the Kalihi location a few months back with my kids and we loved it! So when I heard Double Three was opening in Kailua I knew I had to go! So on opening weekend I took my two daughters and grandson for dessert and they did not disappoint. You grab a paper and you select your order and then they get to work making your bubble waffle cone fresh with all the yummy topping you select! Comes out picture perfect! The staff is really nice too! I went again a few nights later and again it was delicious. Our favorite new spot for dessert!! read more

This is a 9$ cone. We are all for supporting local business, so here it goes. Tried to go to this place last night there was a line, literally a line. I've seen the line before and figured I'd check it out. Wasn't about to wait in a line, so retuned in the afternoon. The next day. First, the reason for the line is they have one or two waffle makers at most back there and can't make the waffles fast enough for the amount of customers. You would think that after more than a year of being open and noticing the line they would invest in the business and get more equipment. Each customer that orders a come will wait an average of about 20 minutes for a come. This wait comes after you have waited in line for 30 minutes or so. Depending on how many cones were ordered before yours. The ice cream nothing to write home about, not anything special. My experience is after ordering I waited for them to page me that my order was ready. Instead they called me in to tell me they ran out of the ice cream I ordered. Why would you wait to tell me this until I have already placed my order? The flavors are basic chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, it's just regular store bought, not homemade. The cone is tasty,but for 9$ I was expecting more. For me the cone is great for photos but not sure it's 9$ good. The price goes up the more topping you want. You get two included with the price and other topping are a little more pricey. It was good to try once and hope they co rubies to do good. I mean after all there is still a line. Just know if you go you'll be waiting and they may run out of the ice cream you ordered but they have regular flavors to substitute. read more

SO AMAZING! We found this place by sheer chance and could not have been happier. The "cone" is delicious and compliments every bite of ice cream. And everything is your customized combination. For the size of the ice cream cone and all the toppings, we were pleasantly surprised by the price. We were assuming a cool, Instagram-able place like this would run like $20 per. However, we got some extras on top of ours and it still only came out to about $11 or so. Will definitely be coming back. read more

I know, I know, why three stars! Every time I try to come, it's always packed! Ok fine the hype is real. It's pretty bomb. The waffles have a crispy edge, chewy inside and perfectly flavored but to stand outside for 30 mins waiting for it just isn't worth it to me. Haupia ice cream was so good, but practically melted when they handed it to me. I guess it doesn't help when only waffle maker is working. Maybe give it a try during the week? read more

Really cool ice cream! It's an art that you can eat! You get a double sided slip and choose whatever you want on your cone or in your cup. The bubble waffle cone is soft and tastes just like a waffle cone. Everything was fresh and made to order. Including the bubble cone. They do have photos of example ice creams you can choose from if the list is just too many options to figure out!!! The pair working there were super helpful and create a wonderful ice cream masterpiece. 5-10 minute wait for our party of five. read more

From the Business

Specialties

This is our 2nd location opened December 2019 Now serving premium Bubble Tea! Our bubble waffles are influenced and are very similar to the Hong Kong waffles (gai dan zai) but are not exactly the same. We created a new type of batter with our secret recipe to produce a light cake/mochi like texture in the inside with the same crispiness on the outside to go well with the ice cream. We make our waffles/batter from scratch every day. We do not use instant mochi waffles/batter mix like many others do. We are the first DIY bubble waffle “Specialty Store” to serve bubble waffles with ice cream in Hawaii.

History

Established in 2019.

While the owner was studying dessert making in Tokyo, he came across Hong Kong waffles and immediately fell in love. He then went to Hong Kong to learn the traditional way of making Gai Dan Zai (Hong Kong waffles). After spending 2 years in Hong Kong, he decided to open a shop in Hawaii, where he grew up. 1st store in Honolulu Jan 2019. 2nd location in Kailua Dec 2019. With his back ground in dessert making, he’s made some changes to the traditional Hong Kong waffles (with respect) to create a modern bubble waffles that goes well when served with ice cream.

Meet the Manager: Sirri C.

Originally from Hawaii. Studied making desserts in Tokyo and Hong Kong.

I had a hankering for frozen yogurt and I was in the area, so I came by to check out Frost for the…read morefirst time. It's a nice little store with a great selection of frozen yogurt, toppings, and sauces. You can really go crazy here with candies, cereals, boba, fruits, brownies, cookies, and all sorts of goodies to go on your yogurt. There were about 12 different frozen yogurt flavors available on the day I went, from chocolate to cinnamon, cappucino and fruity flavors. Basically, you can mix up the frozen yogurt of your dreams. There were plenty of cups, spoons, and napkins, and the checkout process was quick and easy. This was much more reasonable in price than the froyo place nearest me. Sadly, I'm not normally out in Kailua but I will make it a point to stop here when I am!

I understand the…read moreconcept of these types of dessert spots, and if you're mainly looking for ice cream with tons of topping options, it might be a fun place to take kids. They definitely have a lot of choices. However, the shaved ice was absolutely atrocious. It's a make-your-own setup with a machine, but the ice melts almost immediately as soon as you pour any flavor on top. Instead of having that soft, fluffy shaved ice texture you expect in Hawaii, it just turned into a watery mess within seconds. For how expensive it was, the quality really did not match the price at all.

The tea is some of the best on island, and it's very affordable, especially for a gaggle of highschoolers on a budget. I end up paying only a little over six dollars for sixteen ounces of tea with boba and cheese foam, which is amazing in this economy. As far as I know there is only one girl that works here, but she's very quick and always gets orders exactly perfect. Despite not being very talkative, she's friendly in her own way. She never minds if my friends and I move the tables around or loiter for a while and the last time we were in there to celebrate school letting out for summer she offered to take our photo. The ambiance is also really nice, I love the warm lighting and the music playing on the speaker is always great. it's also open until nine, great for a late-night treat.

This place has always been solid for me. It was my first time at the Kailua location, and they were super helpful. I ordered the Kailua Monkey and had them go light on the peanut butter, and they had no problem customizing it. Everything was quick and easy, even though it was pretty busy. Parking was easier than I expected too. There are a lot of shops there, but I didn't have any trouble finding a spot. Inside is a little tight, especially with a couple strollers in there, but honestly it wasn't a big deal. I still got my smoothie fast, and it was really good. Just a heads up -- they may use Skippy or organic peanut butter, so if that matters to you, just ask for organic. I'll for sure be coming back when I'm in the area here, they made it quick easy and I was out the door in no time. Definitely recommend! SYOY! Deb B

It's a gentrified and heavily congested area with all the tourist that visit year rounds. The parking is horrendous so I would suggest visiting mid-late morning on the weekdays or just before they close if you want to beat the rush. I order the same thing from Lanikai Juice because this smoothie is that good! I typically order the Kailua Monkey which consists of soy milk, peanut butter, banana, protein, honey and ice. This is the smoothest and most creamy smoothie you'll ever enjoy. The service was fabulous on the day I visited. The female who took my order was very friendly and they complete my smoothie in less than 10 minutes.

Very disappointing experience…read more We were told the food would take a while, which was completely understandable. I had already received one drink from an earlier order, and while we were waiting for our food, we placed a separate order for additional drinks. After quite some time passed, I went to ask about those drinks. I provided an employee my name, and without properly checking, she immediately told me that I had not placed an order. After I showed her my receipt, she looked again and found it. I told her that it was rude to tell a customer they had not ordered something without properly checking first. Her response was, "No it's not." When I said that I disagreed, she replied, "Well, that's what you think." At that point, I asked for her name. She responded by asking, "What's YOUR name?" I provided it, and she replied, "I'm not giving you my name." I then asked to speak with a manager and was told that no manager was available. I asked for the manager's name and was refused. I then asked for contact information so I could follow up, and was told, "You can just keep calling." The interaction was unprofessional from start to finish and left me feeling completely dismissed as a customer. As for the food, the Duck Fat Fried Rice Loco Moco and Lilikoi French Toast were good. However, the Braised Beef and Cheddar Panini arrived with cold fries and cold, rubbery beef after a long wait. A refund was eventually provided for the panini, which I appreciate, but it did not make up for the overall experience. The biggest issue was not the wait or even the food. It was the lack of professionalism, accountability, and basic customer service when a mistake was made.

decided to finally give this place a try after seeing them all over instagram at their original location, which seems to be always busy (that's why i was hesitant to go as i don't like to stand in line) this is their new location which i found while coming back from kailua beach i just had to stop by. you fill out a form to place an order which i find very convenient. it does take a while to complete but each waffle is made fresh so it's totally worth the wait. i tried the ube ice cream which was on point but the real star here is the bubble waffle aka egg puffs. i've had something similar at other places in hawaii but they were all disappointing. this place is hands down the best in the island, similar if not better than the ones i've had in asia. price is reasonable considering it's size and quality. highly recommended! read more

I recently visited Double 3 Bubble Waffle in Kailua and had a fantastic experience! Their mochi waffles are an absolute delight--perfectly crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. This location offers ice cream, unlike the other location that serves only soft serve. I recommend trying the taro ice cream paired and the chocolate mochi waffle. A word of caution: the prices are $$ for dessert and toppings can be a bit precarious, especially the whipped cream, so handle with care. Also, be prepared for a busy crowd if you visit post-dinner hour. Despite the wait, the delicious treat is well worth it. Plus, the waffles are definitely shareable, making it a great option for enjoying with friends. Double 3 Bubble Waffle is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth! read more

This place is a must try! The Belgian waffle-like cone was absolutely delicious. The texture was just fun to eat. Expensive, so it's not somewhere I would eat a lot, but every so often. Service is not very fast as it takes time to freshly make this, but it was worth it. I prob would avoid this place if it has a group of ppl in there as you'll be waiting forever to get your treat. Ambiance is small, but clean. If they just had a better pricing, and a way to cut their time and still make this delicious, it would be somewhere I would go more often. read more
