We visited Hideaways during our visit to the north shore. On arrival the chef (owner?) immediately let us know that they were backed up due to a huge amount of to-go orders. They were also staffed with just the chef and our intrepid waiter, Daniel (an island boy with a Polish accent - wild). A few points on this: (1) this is an island. Shit like this happens. It's no big deal because they serve beer and the beer took no time at all. (2) both the chef and Daniel busted their butts to get us served appropriately and were nothing but hospitable. While there was a wait, we had beer and wings and conversation, which was great, and when the pizza did come it was great. You should definitely give this place a go and support a local business. read more

My husband and I ordered a pepperoni pizza to be picked up. The vibes inside were cute, but there were a few uncleared tables. We were greeted by the bartender after standing around awkwardly for a few minutes. He took his time but got us our order. Honestly the service was underwhelming, but I REALLY enjoyed the pizza. The dough was absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. I also really liked the sauce to cheese ratio and the pepperoni was great. I would def order the pizza to be picked up again. read more

2/10 -- Desperate Times, Desperate Taste Buds If you're absolutely starving and stranded with zero options, this might just do the trick -- but only then. The wings were so tiny and tough I felt like I was gnawing on chicken jerky, and the pizza? A solid 2 out of 10 on a good day. Paid $65 for what tasted like an $18 meal. Next time, I'll just eat my feelings instead -- probably cheaper and more satisfying. read more

It's closed for good now. Drove a long way hoping for pizza without reading the bad reviews first. The sign is still up but it's boarded up. read more

First night in Hawaii, only place that was open nearby our air bnb. We were greeted in a timely manner and we were definitely advised that it may take up to an hour or more, it was busy and they seemed a bit understaffed. No problem, i was accompanied with a patient bunch. If long wait times is a norm in this restaurant, i recommend anyone whose patience is not their virtue to stray away. Other than that, for me, the wait was well worth it. I really enjoyed the Pizza. We ordered Hawaiian pizza and Pepperoni. It was so good, we came a second time during our stay. Best part was the crust! Crispy exterior, soft interior. Delicious! read more

Garlic bread was great Chicken wings were great Friendly staff Food came out fast Nothing fancy but has plenty of space, like an 80s pizza joint But the pizza was nothing to write home about And I had the signature mai tai and it was just fine read more

Fair warning, they did tell us it would be a long wait as they only had one pizza chef. While we were waiting they actually turned people away. Although the service was a bit sketch. I ordered a mojito and he kept saying a Pinot. We got pizza we did not order and then he seemed a bit annoyed when we still asked for the pizza we did order. All that being said, the pizza was WORTH it. Best pizza we have had in a long time. read more

Just Had the Best Slice of Paradise at Hideaways Pizza Pub! Man, if you're in Princeville and craving pizza that hits like a Hawaiian sunset, Hideaways is your spot. Tucked away in that Pali Ke Kua gem, I just rolled in for what I thought was a quick lunch, but boom--happy hour had just kicked off! We're talking killer deals on those award-winning Neapolitan pies, fresh-off-the-press dough made with that fancy 00 Tipo flour, and local craft beers that taste like they were brewed in the waves. I went for the classic longboard --blistered tomatoes, house-made sauce bursting with island-fresh vibes, and mozzarella that melts like it knows it's on vacation. Paired it with buffalo wings that pack a punch without the regret. The vibe? Chill pub meets beach hideout--think ocean breezes sneaking in while you crush a pint from a Kauai brewery. And the staff? Legends who treat you like ohana, not just another tourist. Hawai'i Magazine called it 'Best of the Best' for a reason--this place is the real deal, hidden but worth every second of the hunt. Parking's a breeze in the community lot too. If you're not there yet, fix that. 5/5 stars, aloha-style. Can't wait for round two. (Shoutout to https://hideawayspizzapub.com for the deets--go sign up for those rewards!) read more

We ordered wings and pizza. The wings were not done with raw meat next to the bone. Our margarita pizza was supposed to be Neapolitan but the crust was very thick. It was also very bland. When we asked for a side of marinara we were brought a small cup of ice-cold sauce. When we asked the waiter to ask if it could be warmed up he brought it back cold and said the owner/cook said he would get to it when he could. There were three tables with customers in the entire place. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Hideaways Pizza Pub - Thick "Neapolitan" pizza with a slice of tomato and minimal cheese. - Pizza Near Me - Princeville, Hawaii

Been to princeville a number of times but first time here. I know we were there in the slower part of the season, but this place was struggling. Pizza - meh. Nothing wrong with it, nothing great. They were out of a lot of stuff. Only 3 beers from their list of 8 or so available. Had a lot of wine listed, but only had one of their whites available. Gave us the happy hour menu, but didn't have some of the drinks. The tables were sticky like they have been wiped repeatedly with dirty rags. The two people running the show were vey nice. Gave my wife prosecco because house white not available and then told us later that's not on happy hour menu. read more

This restaurant is a gem! The service was friendly and the view was excellent. Although the entire island is short staffed this summer, our server was friendly and attentive although she was running! The guy clearing tables was also delivering food and helping out - they were a great team! The pizza was so good. The crust was perfectly cooked - not burned in the bottom or soggy - pizza perfection! I also had the beet salad and oh my gosh it was heavenly! I made sure to order a medium pizza so I would have leftovers and it worked out perfectly. Right across the street is an absolutely gorgeous view of the sunset. It was a little pricey, but worth it! read more

Hideaways Pizza Pub - The sunset from across the street - Pizza Near Me - Princeville, Hawaii

One star, and that's only because zero isn't an option. We placed our order online at 7:15 PM and were told it would be ready by 8:15 PM. Fair enough. We arrived right on time, only to end up waiting an additional 30 minutes inside the restaurant. On top of that, at least 10 other equally frustrated customers were waiting for pick up as the staff scrambled to keep up with what seemed like a completely mismanaged kitchen. If you're going to offer specific pickup times, maybe start by trying to honor one of them. The place clearly has no system in place to manage online orders or communication in general. Save your time, save your money, and absolutely save your appetite. After that extended wait, we FINALLY got our food and somehow, that part was even worse than the delay. We ordered a house salad with Caesar dressing and got a sad, wilted pile of greens that looked like it had been sitting out since lunch. Honestly, it had the texture of regret. The croutons were the only thing with a pulse. Then came the cheese bread, which was supposed to include marinara sauce. Not only was there no marinara to be found, but we received a sad-looking box of greasy bread, hacked into random pieces like someone had a personal vendetta against presentation. Some pieces were barely separated, some were half-burned, and all of them screamed "we gave up." As for the buffalo wings? What we got were dry, heavily breaded wings with NO buffalo sauce and a sad cup of ranch tossed in like a consolation prize. If I wanted plain fried chicken with an identity crisis, I wouldn't have ordered BUFFALO wings. At that point, it honestly felt like they were just guessing what we ordered and hoping we wouldn't care. read more

If you're going to charge $50 for a 14", 3 topping pizza, how about not throwing raw toppings on top of a pizza that was already made incorrectly and "reheating" it in the oven. The cook even scoffed when the nice server told him about the original error. Bad vibes except for the kind server who did what she could to make it right. Don't want to give any less stars but do better. Really. read more

We stayed in Kauai for 8 days and mostly ate in the Princeville area. This is the one place I'd avoid if I went back again. Service was super slow....... They forgot drinks we ordered, and we basically had to flag them down to order a beer. When the pizza did arrive, they didn't bring plates or anything, so we got up and grabbed them ourselves. Pizza was average, beer was good and would have had about 4-5 instead we had one because our server was never around to ask. There are plenty of better options close by. The pizza at the Sand Bar at the 1 hotel was much better. read more

We were seated promptly and then ignored for the next twenty minutes. We ended up walking out unserved. Pizza delivered to the table next to us smelled good. Addition after response by owner since I'm unable to reply to him: Sir, it is the first time I've ever not received service somewhere! Seemed worth a first review. I'm a real person who was hoping for a good meal on a rainy day. Surprised that was your response to a customer. read more

If I can give this place zero stars for service I would. We walked in at 8pm and the guy at the front said it would take 2 hours to get food out to our table. How is this possible if they close at 10pm ? He didn't care and started emptying dishwasher. Several parties were complaining that the restaurant was empty but they couldn't offer a table for us walk ins. Server also said takeout was not an option and that they were short staff. Worst customer service ever. I had called them at 5pm and asked if I needed a reservation and they said I didn't need one. We left hungry and disappointed. Hi Thomas, Thank you for your reply. I was not made aware of any tsunami threat or emergency situation when I visited -- no staff member mentioned it, and there were no signs or notices posted at the restaurant. I absolutely understand that emergencies can cause disruptions, and I sympathize with what your team might have been dealing with. That said, the lack of communication and the dismissive attitude we experienced from staff were frustrating. Being told there would be a 2-hour wait in a mostly empty restaurant, after being assured earlier on the phone that a reservation wasn't needed, was disappointing -- especially when we were turned away without explanation or options. I didn't write this review to be unfair during a crisis, but to share my experience as a customer who had no context for what was happening. I hope this feedback is taken constructively to improve communication with future guests. Best regards, Roxy read more

Good service terrible cocktails and very overpriced pizza. The restaurant was messy and dirty! We used to love it here. Too bad.

Like a lot of patrons, we were visiting from the mainland(NC) and stumbled on the place passing by. We had a GREAT pie and beers. Food was great and the bartender was fabulous! Met another couple from CA and had the best of everything you could ask for! read more

Just about the worst experience ever. Cold pizza. Horrible service. Ordered online, arrived and went to bar to wait for order, server never once even acknowledged us for over 10 min (looked right at us and not a peep). Finally when he did come to us, we let him know we had an online order. After waiting politely another 30 min, I finally went into the kitchen myself and asked if our pizza was ready. Turns out it had been ready for quite some time. Tons of apologies for being "short staffed". We always go there at least once when in Princeville, after this time never again. No one deserves to be treated so poorly. $37 down the drain. read more

I called last week ( August 2025) to order pizzas and salad for 3 of us. They recommended 3 pizzas and two salads, as we were staying 2 minutes away I walked over to pick it up. Service was very slow, over 45 minutes from my call until it was ready. Pizzas were huge and very poor quality, and we ended up throwing most of it away. Our bill was $175!!! I never bother with reviews generally but this place was so atrocious I feel obliged to warn others.Kauai is often expensive but this place is ridiculous. As for the place itself , there are tables but they are stacked with empty pizza boxes and the decor is 1970's modern. Do not waste your time and money! read more

I don't usually leave a review but this place was the biggest joke I have ever experienced, we ordered online and then waited for 30 + mins after we arrived at our pickup time. And during that 30 min wait i witnessed the only 3 tables with customers get up and leave and one of those people tried to talk to the only idiot working and he was one on the most unfriendly people I have ever seen, he proceeded to ignore everyone and not care at all that the whole restaurant was upset. There were people trying to order carry out that he would just laugh at and say he had no clue how long it would take. If I had any extra whip cream pies I would have thrown them all in his face. Thanks for nothing and GFYS. Mahalo read more

Great place. Great pizza. Great people. We wanted pizza. We got the Supreme, arugula beet salad and mozzarella sticks. Soooo good. I don't understand why this place is rated 3.5. Must be some haters. read more

Really nice and cool staff. They made our visit a lot of fun! Awesome pizza . Their seating is pretty cool too! Hawaii prices ofc...but hands down the best "late night" spot on the north shore. By "late night" I mean open after 9pm read more

Sorry this was not great. Service was nice but the pizza was not pizza. We got the Italian job and a pepperoni and white sauce mix. The uncut roasted garlic was everywhere and too much. Huge chunks/cloves of it. The crust looked great but ended up flavorless. I love mozzarella as much as the next guy. But too much can make a pizza swim in cheese water, and our pizza was drowning. Super disappointed. We spent 95 on 2 large pizzas. We should have gotten frozen at the store and saved. read more

First time eating here, as I never stay in Princeville. Wow.. what a tremendous waste of money. Service was horrible. Our server was an adult woman who was off-putting to say the least, as she decided to immediately trauma dump on our table about her personal life's issues. Our table went along and feigned interest as we suffered through 2 separate unsolicited rounds of it. It was truly terrible service. I regret not calling it out or leaving. Food; very expensive prices for cheap ingredients. Pupus were better than the pizza- and even those were forgettable. As for the pizza- just bad. The dough was undercooked (pale and mushy). Another reviewer mentioned buying a frozen pizza instead of coming here- I couldn't agree more. Literally any frozen pizza would've been better, and much cheaper. read more

Came here because it was one of the last places in the area still open and thought the pizza looked good. Ended up waiting over an hour for the buffalo wings and our pizza was done 20 minutes prior. The waiters were rude to our party and checked on us once the entire time we sat there. The pizza came out fine but the wings were terrible. Also they charge $3 for a single tiny cup of ranch. Stating that the price has risen because they're on an island. $3 ranch is crazy in my opinion. Wouldn't recommend unless you're getting the pizza to go. Even then it's a risk. read more

We were a party of 7 adults, and three toddlers. We walked in and were sat (approximately 5-6 mins) no water was given. Four seperate guests came in after us and were immediately sat and served water within 2 mins of sitting. We asked if we can have waters and were told I think they just poured them , let me check. Another couple came in and received water before us as well. We searched for other restaurants in the area, pizza. We found one at Hannah Lake Bay resort and call them to see if we can be seated. They said definitely come on in. When the water was finally brought out, we had decided that was enough and told the waiter that we were going to leave. He gave us a dirty look and said Enjoy your night and picked up the waters and tossed them rudely into the dirty dishes bucket next to the table. I am a chef in a restaurant, our policy is always take care of customers in order. Normally waiters always make sure to take care of the bigger parties with extra care, to hopefully receive a bigger tip. What a horrible experience. We went to Wiki Pizza down the road and were sat at a much nicer atmosphere. We're given water immediately upon sitting down. Served with urgency and pizza was amazing. Very happy we did not stay and regret eating at Hideaways. In my experience, when the service is bad, the food normally follows. read more

Truly a hideaway! A bit hard to find the front door, but once you do you will be pleasantly surprised! Hot wings so good. Pizza was awesome! Our server Tyrone was great! He was the only server and did an amazing job for a busy Wednesday night! read more

Ok, the pizza was really good but on some they were a little stingy with the toppings (with ice in drinks too). Wings were good, definitely give those a try. As to service, servers were polite but, noticeably awkward and disorganized. Having been in customer service, sometimes you have an off day and some other issues going on all at the same time so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and kept it at a 4. Other than that, the place itself was clean and well kept (couldn't snag any pictures though). I'd recommend confirming inside where you can park in case the local condominium community has changed rules when you visit. read more

Had high hopes, won't be back. Server was very nice. The place needs a redo. The mozzarella sticks were good. The ranch dressing was off. We had the pepperoni pizza. Thank god for the pepperoni, the pizza was tasteless. read more

Alex provided absolutely amazing service!!! So professional - yes even with ordering pizza! and quick to provide service and communicate when things get busy. Atmosphere is great with amazing trees and greenery surrounding. Mahalo read more

This place came highly recommended for "gourmet type" pizza, but unfortunately, they fell short. The person who specifically suggested this place is a vegetarian-ish foodie, who's usually spot on with their opinions. Placing my order over the phone was seamless. And picking up our order was pretty straightforward. But the problem was the pizza. Super salty, not enough sauce, and lukewarm. Not impressed! Perhaps, their other pizzas are absolutely delicious, but the basic pepperoni pizza was meh...and Im not even a pizza snob. Though we picked up our order to go, the restaurant was nicely laid out with booth seating and plenty of tables. Overall, Hard pass on this place..but maybe their veggie options is where its at.. read more

Way overpriced pizza that is mediocre and a simple salad that looked very poor in presentation. Spent $48 for 8 slices of pizza and a simple salad. There were only 2-3 tables seated but pizza still took forever to be served. read more

Beautiful restaurant and gorgeous views! Pizza & Garlic cheese bread is outstanding! The wait staff is very friendly and attentive! Best restaurant on the island! read more

I'm being generous with a two star! The restaurant itself is stuck in the 90s with booths that are in only fair shape. The restaurant has very dirty carpet and windows, etc. Prior to going we read a review about the wonderful sunset view, which does not exist. The pizza is mediocre at best. We had an Italian job pizza and several slices had nothing but cheese Mai Tai's had a strange taste. Service was mediocre and slow, we had to ask for plates, forks, and requested a glass of water and never received. In the waitress's defense, she was the only one working. read more

Good pizza, great people. Went with a bunch of hungry golfers and all enjoyed their meal!

Great pizzas and the service was fantastic as well! We had a Hawaiian pizza and a meat lovers pizza. The crust was crunchy and the perfect texture inside. The sauce was a perfect complement to the cheese and meat as well on the meat lovers pizza. I didn't try the Hawaiian pizza but everyone loved it! read more

Stay away. Not good people working there. Worst service experience I've ever had. Place was empty and the 4 groups there were all upset. 2 pickup orders that they could never get out, and the service guy would literally not speak to customers or help. 2 parties left after sitting down for 20 minutes with nobody waiting on them. read more

Went to Hideaway pizza because it was close to where we were staying in Princeville. It's a large restaurant and they seated our big party immediately. The food came out rather quick although they are short staffed like most of the island. They bring out waters as soon as you get seated which is nice after a hot day at the beach. I ordered a Mai Tai and would consider it average. We also got an order of mozzarella sticks and they were slightly above average (came with 8 sticks). For food the table split a 16 inch Hawaiian pizza, a 16 inch rooster, and a 16 inch Italian. The Italian pizza came out first and was really good. My only critique is that the dough was rather floppy. The rooster pizza was my favorite and was very crisp and delicious. I wasn't a fan of the Hawaiian pizza mainly due to the dough and macadamia nuts. They do have a really good house made ranch that I recommend getting (cost $3 extra). Overall I liked the service and ambiance. The food wasn't stand out but it was solid and quick. I'd come back after a long day at the beach but wouldn't go out of my way to make it a Kauai staple. read more
