First time…read morecoming here and been wanting to try their rainbow popcorn since it had been a long time that I've eaten any. I was greeted by a nice lady, on the quiet side. The rainbow popcorn is already pre-bagged and comes in 3 sizes - small, medium, and large. I opted for medium for $5.69. I thought the price was fair and reasonable. Had some when I got home and it was just as how I remembered - ono! It was a little more on the sweet side than I had expected, but good. They also sell popcorn lei and cotton candy as well as different flavors to add to your popcorn. There's something for everyone.

I LOVE popcorn. I've always passed by and resisted the urge to buy a bag since I thought I could…read morejust make it at home. Eventually, I gave in and now it's my favorite treat! They're a small kiosk inside Pearlridge, right next to TJ Maxx. There's usually a few minute wait since the popcorn is made fresh to order and there's only one employee, but it's definitely worth the wait! So far I've only tried the volcano, which is a hurricane mix with kakimochi and furikake. The popcorn is always crisp and evenly buttered with the perfect kakimochi ratio. They have 3 size options - you'll want to get the large because they're so good you could finish half the bag in one sitting. I had a friend try some of my popcorn a few days later and was surprised with how fresh it still tasted! In his words he said it was "to die for" lol.

Service was quick and easy, making it the perfect grab-and-go spot. The soft serve is my favorite, and it definitely did not disappoint. I got the swirl with vanilla and strawberry. It was just as good as I remember it. Creamy, smooth, and just the right amount of sweetness. The small size was still pretty generous. There are lots of local snacks and goodies available for purchase. I haven't tried it yet but the customizable popcorn is such a fun touch too. Overall, such a great spot with kind staff and delicious treats!

So on! They have so many choices for ice cakes and popcorn. They also have two soft serve machines…read more One with classic blue vanilla and strawberry. The day we went, the other machine had chocolate and coffee. We got there later in the day and everyone was super friendly, and even offered samples.

It was my first time visiting and I'm thankful I did as I was able to select from a variety of popcorn flavors and combinations. I love how unique and Asian-influenced these combinations are, which made my visit here so eye opening! I'm typically a classic kettle corn type of girl, so I purchased a medium size kettle and I also got the Japanese matcha combo! This one has matcha powder, butter, furikake, and kaki mochi. I can't wait to go back to try the Volcano flavor! I want to highlight the associate, Redie (or Ready, I need to ask for her name spelling again!). She was so incredible patient, generous, and kind. This is a family owned and operated business and I am happy to support this brand. It's also delicious!

First things first, I must admit that I am not a fan of kettle corn. But I needed party favors for…read moremy son's 1st birthday party, and after reading many good reviews and then seeing these at another birthday party, I decided to order 160 mini bags of their local style popcorn. Lance is very responsive, answered all of my (sometimes silly) questions, and expressed such gratitude for my order. It made me feel like he really valued my business. Now about the popcorn! The local style is SO good! The perfect combo of sweet kettle corn and the savory kakimochi and furikake. I also love that you can choose the colors you'd like the popcorn to be. We went with red and black to match my son's F1 birthday theme. I usually don't care for kettle corn because most I've had has been over coated and too sweet for my taste. But this one? I've already ate like 3 bags of the extras from the party. I also got multiple compliments from our guests on how good it was. It's actually so good, I plan on ordering more when we run out of our extras!

I often see Island Popper coupons in the firefighter handbook my kids get every year so I decided to try this place out. I emailed them regarding sizes and prices and the owner Andrea responded quickly! Store is located in Dillingham behind the old Eki Cyclery. It's a cute little shop and love that she sells treat cups so you can bring home a variety of different mixes to try. You can also custom order your popcorn right there. It's made fresh and oh so delicious and addicting! I called ahead and they just told me to place my order online for pick up the next day since it was a big order. I ordered 30 medium bags of the Tsunami Mix. Thanks for the 15% discount code!The centerpieces looked awesome and I know our guests will love the popcorn!

Brandon will contact you, asking to fill out the form with additional information and Venmo the total cost to him. After you tell him the date you want to pick up popcorn and he receives the paid amount, Brandon will let you know where and what time to meet him. On date of pick up, Brandon texted me to say he'd be there at the exact time, which was really considerate so we didn't have to wonder or worry. Sure enough he pulled up in the vehicle he described and quickly distributed his orders with a smile and mahalo! He had each order bagged separately with our names. This popcorn is delicious with a salty sweet flavor and comes in all sizes with other flavors. Check out their website! We bought the large one to give out as favors (one per ohana) at my granddaughter's birthday party and everyone was stoked because they could enjoy while watching UH football that evening. Mahalo Brandon for being so easy to work with and we look forward to doing business with you again soon.

Leah later emailed me saying she couldn't contact me cause her wallet and phone were stolen. At first she told me she would give me a credit to use it for a future event (as if I wanted to book her again after a no show) so I told Leah I wanted my money back. After constant messaging, she finally decided she was going to give back my money at the end of May. It's June, and I still haven't gotten our money back. I had the benefit of a doubt that her wallet and phone were actually stolen but recently saw other people comment on their instragram using the same excuse and not giving back their money! I wanted to support a local business, especially seeing their kids being involved in their business, but it makes me sad that they are taking advantage of us.

After satisfying my smoothing cravings at Hang's French Cafe & Smoothies which is right next door you know I had to give them a visit and as I walked in I just didn't expect to see so many options to neatly displayed at this cool shop. One wall is filled the snacks the local love and the easy grab and go does take care of cravings instantly along with some Pop Mart items though isn't quite the snack we sure have been eathing up the rave that's been keeping us guessing ourselves. Many of their items are crafted like specialty popcorn, Hawaiian Frost Soft Serve, Shaved Ice, and even açaí bowls. Keeping the coolness after my smoothie I decided on some dipping' dots as I stared into the display case with the various flavor offerings it was the "Cool Mint Crunch" oh yeah the minty coolness really hit the spot and bits of Oreo was so yummy as it kept me still for a moment as I enjoyed my treat before I continued on my errands taking this me time was just right.
