Ugh, I really hate leaving bad reviews, especially on places that I frequently visit and enjoy. My party sat outside since we had a dog with us. Ordered our food via the QR code, which came BEFORE a server even visited our table with our drinks. Ended up having to go up to the bar to order our flight since no one came to greet us. Placed our drink order and were asked to show IDs, which is fine but I ended up having to walk to my table outside and then back inside to the bar to flash our IDs. The server noticed that I ordered 3 flights then asked who the 3rd flight was for (dude if you just came to our table and took our orders properly maybe you wouldn't have needed to ask this!). Someone in my party asked for water and the server returned with 1 water...lol. Is it so hard to ask if the entire table wanted water? Now that I think about it, I receive extremely poor service on the $5 Flight Wednesdays. The servers that are usually attentive do not work on these days so I don't think I will be coming back on this specific day. I truly love this business, but today's visit was just awful with bad service.

Today is my first time I've ever been to Paradise cider in Mililani, Hawaii and let's say I am hooked. My mom and I both did a $10 paradise flight; we each picked different cider that we wanted to try. I had the guava cider, the dragon, fruit and strawberry cider and the mango daze cider. From the three different sliders that I had I really liked the guava cider. It was very light and then the last cider that I had the mango cider was also very good; the mango flavor really packed a punch, and you could definitely smell it from the top of the glass. My mom had the hang loose cider, the laid-back Lily cider, which is a passionfruit cider and then the pineapple Cruser, which is a pineapple cider. I also tried her pineapple cider and it was very yummy. I can't do the other ones because I can't do passionfruit. Not sure who's manning the bar today, but I will get his name later. The gentleman manning the bar, his name is Jacob! He is very nice and very informative on what different ciders and what different options they have at the cidery. 10/10

Paradise ciders is hands down some of the best cider I've ever had. We moved off island about 6 years ago and use to go to the old location and our first visit back did not disappoint! Their ciders range largely in sweet level which I'm a huge fan of as I'm not typically a cider fan. The flavor combos are genius! I absolutely love the ginger citrus cider. You can also find them at so many grocery stores now!! I will say that service was slow but it was extremely busy so we weren't upset about it. Plus, the server was very friendly. Food truck is semi attached and is a fantastic! Dog friendly establishment. Overall, we were extremely impressed and happy to see how far paradise ciders has come from their old location and Costco pizza days.

Great drinks and other local brews. Event nights and nice staff. Fun atmosphere, and food from HI sliders always really good. Good date spot, or for watching sports.

What a huge selection of beers and ciders! Love that it's spacious inside with the indoor, outdoor seating and you choose where you want to be! Huge bar and selections. I enjoyed the flatbread that we ordered. My favorite was the Lilikoi cider. This was perfect in the afternoon early dinner not a huge crowd or big noise. Just a chill time with our good friends.

Tucked away in the shopping center. Place has been around for two years (where have I been!). I'm glad I found a cider brewery place here in Oahu, hard to come by a good one. Okay tried the: Kalihi Beer Wai Le'a Lager - Watermelon beer. Subtle hint of tajin. Not a strong presence of watermelon but it did have a fruity hint. Guava Lava - nice sweet and light flavor (one of my favorites) Lei'd back Lilikoi - sweet fruity cider (one of my favorites) Mango Li-Hing Mui - Sweet seltzer (not cider), subtle mango flavor. Came with a rim of Li-Hing Mui which is sweet and tart just how I like it (one of my favorites) Hang Loose Juice Cider- Pretty deadly as it indeed tastes like juice Mango Daze - not too sweet or tart mango flavor Service was great! Nice chill bartender named Kennedy, seemed real dte. And informative and helpful with our choices of drinks. Nice open bar area with great breeze. Lots of bar and table seating. Such a whole ass vibe coming here at 4:10pm on a Sunday. Also they have a food menu and food truck in the back area of the bar which is separately ordered and we didn't try but all the more reason to come back and try which I will do!

This was a cool spot. There's an outdoor patio and indoor seating that include high tops, tables and seats around the bar. On the other side of the restaurant, there's a spot for a food truck. My husband and I ordered almost everything on the menu. The couple we were with ordered other drinks we didn't order. Our favorite was the mango and li hing mui. The li hing mui adds a saltiness and tartness that I think is way better than tajin. And to pair it with mango was perfect. I was most disappointed by the Ube Blue Bae. I felt like it tasted mostly of potato with no other notes of the blueberry. All in all, a good hangout spot. I would definitely go again!

Food was amazing! Service was timed perfectly. Ambiance was chill and great for a group of people.

Wish they opened a location in Ewa Beach but totally worth driving up to cool Mililani for this experience. There is also an outdoor area in the front you can bring your dog. We sat at the bar as we were short on time. Needed to refill our 64oz growler to prepare for Superbowl. But alas we had to taste test the ciders and seltzers to choose a refill. I had their ciders in Kalihi many years ago. Hard ciders are so easy to drink but they have 5-6% alcohol. I imagine many women like the fruity flavors. They also carry other brands. But we like sampling their proprietary flavors. Not sure what the difference between a ciders and seltzer is. We ended up with Pineapple Cider. They have food from a food truck in the back of the bar, a separate business called HI Sliders. Lemme tell you their birra tacos are AMAZING. We are coming back every Wednesday night with the dog as growler refill is only $10 which is super cheap or half off normal. Our growler has approximately 5 pints in it for $20 regular so that's cheap good beer. Suggestions: provide dog water bowls with iced water! Support your local microbrewery!

Disclaimer: Paradise Ciders and HI Sliders share the same space. I will be writing a separate review for HI Sliders because... let's be honest... they both deserve an equal round of applause. I've lived in Mililani for almost 2 decades and I recently visited this establishment a month ago. I know, I know... but hey... I've got a handful of kids and they're... particular to say the least. However, I've brought my girls with me first and they loved the vibe. They really liked the bar made fruit punch! I tried their staff picked flight of ciders and hard tea (because I LOVE tea.) Every single one I tried was very tasty! I had the strawberry, lilikoi, and lihing hard tea (it can be viewed in the pic). My least favorite was the lihing. It didn't mix as well as I thought it would. I also had the Lei'd back Lilikoi , Killah Dragon, and Hang Loose Juice ciders (seen in the picture) and those were all VERY good! I really liked the Killah Dragon. All of the staff were extremely attentive and helpful. They explained their menu choices thoroughly without making me feel like I was being an inconvenience. If you dine here during the day, it's super bright! Filled with natural lighting. If you dine at night, it's a little dark with ceiling lighting inside and string lighting outside. Overall, the vibe is amazing! Super chill, family AND pet friendly (outside seating.) Seating is on your own, so find a comfy spot and settle in to have a great time!!!

I've heard really good thing about Paradise Ciders so I wanted to visit. My friend's retirement party was scheduled at Paradise Ciders so it was a good opportunity to sample the goods. The ciders were like beer without the bitterness and ,depending what you selected, pretty fruity in a good way. They also have a good selection of beers ad seems to attract a lot of local regulars. The food comes from a food truck towards the rear of the establishment that seems to be run as a separate establishment. It serves Mexican themed food that is pretty tasty. I will return soon to sample more of the food because I love Mexican cuisine. Prices are good, especially happy hour, and it is a good neighborhood hang out. Loved the empanadas but the nacho fries weren't my thing.

(Drank 05/20/23 SA @ 5:00pm and one other time): Nothing like drinking ciders on the islands of paradise! Now that our bellies were full of BBQ from This Lil Piggy, we decided to make a stop at Paradise Ciders which was "somewhat" on our way home. Honestly, I wanted to check out their cidery since I've enjoyed their ciders at breweries around town, and we were kind of in the vicinity. Ciders seemed to have slowed their pace in the alcohol industry of late while I felt hard seltzers have zoomed past them. However, I always had a palette for the fruitier-tasting things in life, so I suspected this would be a slam dunk. Would I be in paradise as I imbibed on their creative tropical ciders!? PURCHASE Guava Lava Cider 5.2% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Guava orange color, guava tropical aroma, light body, guava flavor, clean finish, and clean guava sweet aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=15ifZhU-sNXbjMDzmP3Pjw Mango Daze Cider 6.0% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Mango orange color, apple mango tropical aroma, light body, mango flavor, clean finish, and clean mango sweet aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=bg_bDN1RQILXUJqmZHp91w Hang Loose Juice Cider 5.0% ABV 13floz Draft ($6.00): Guava orange color, guava orange passion fruit tropical aroma, light body, guava orange passion fruit flavor, clean effervescent finish, and crisp guava orange passion fruit sweet aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=nXkex7KpRXwsFVv6nPK9bw Shortboard Cider 5.0% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Bright amber color, apple fruity tropical aroma, light body, apple flavor, crisp finish, and clean apple tropical aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=kRStWsOZcHUV08lKtcgfkw Pineapple Vanilla Cream Cider 6.6% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Hazy yellow color, fruity pineapple tropical aroma, light body, pineapple vanilla flavor, mouthcoating finish, and pineapple tart vanilla aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=tTGTEchet2eBNRW7ctLB6Q Logo T-Shirt ($20.00): I thought the logo was cool, so I decided to buy one! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=V61hb2loHC_HvqBG2H0sbw Sticker ($3.00): I loved to place these on the walls of other breweries on my travels or stick them on my water bottle. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=vF9t5q_sk-QDEjumtRRL4w SERVICE We easily made our way to a spot at the bar where we were greeted by a friendly young woman who gave us menus (we declined the food one). After much rumination, we finally placed our first order. The drinks came immediately as they did for any future orders. We were checked on occasionally and offered water which was really nice. Otherwise, everything was easy, efficient, and exemplary - mahalo! PARKING (FREE) Located within the Mililani Shopping Center, they shared a large private parking lot with many other businesses such as 24 Hour Fitness, Foodland, ROSS Dress For Less, and more - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE This was a large floorplan with a nearly equally-large bar https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=wpZq3eo3a8VUEfFO63LRPw at the center of it all while a plethora of chairs/tables surrounded it https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=0ZTPeqeH1kf5p2SpVuL0KA all the way to the walls. There was also a small outdoor front patio https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=p77slLuInUDjqf2TQQePhQ area, as well as a stage area for nightly live performances https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=J0mJy9P0tUGSRGtuFbQsHQ in a corner. Plenty of natural lighting came in through the large front opening while many electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were a ton of TVs throughout while on this particular night live music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=xn5QNzpwzvBV2p--3f47CA ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL It was a pleasurable time at Paradise Ciders and I would definitely visit again... maybe to even try their food. They had a very good selection of libations (e.g. beer, ciders, cocktails, wine), the drinks were lovely, prices were comparable, and the service was straightforward. This was also a great place to watch games. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $60.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

We decided to eat here for dinner one night and just so happened there was a UFC fight so it was perfect! Although we were the only ones with kids this night, the staff were super friendly and accommodating for our family. Our server was so patient with all our questions and had great recommendations! Loved their ciders and they have a sampler so you can try a bunch and make your own set. I liked the ciders more than the seltzer. Definitely would come back for the POG cider! We also enjoyed our food for HI Sliders. Super easy to order online via Toast! I also liked how they have inside and outside seating!
So stopped by for the first time The food and drinks were great The atmosphere and cool The service form the staff was great as well read more

First time here! I've been wanting to visit Paradise Ciders for a while after trying a few of their ciders around the island. The hubs and I had just finished dinner and were actually headed to a dessert spot in the same plaza, but when we saw their taproom, we decided to get drinks instead and I'm so glad we did! We stopped by around 8 PM on a Saturday night. Surprisingly, it wasn't overly busy and there were plenty of open tables! The bartender mentioned they had a huge rush during the day and it had calmed down for the evening, which she said is pretty uncommon for a weekend night. We ended up getting two flights: Flight 1: Lilikoi Cider, Guava Lava Cider, and their rotating seasonal flavor, Lychee Hard Seltzer. All so tropical and well-balanced! Flight 2 (Hard Seltzers): Mango & Li Hing Mui, Mojito, and Ube Blu Bae. The flight pours are super generous, you get three 5-oz pours per flight! Every single flavor hit the spot, but the Lilikoi and Lychee were total standouts. Huge shoutout to Brett, who checked us out at the end! He was super nice and gave us the breakdown on all their awesome weekly specials. We'll definitely be coming back during the week to check those out and try some of their food menu next time! Overall chill vibes, amazing local craft ciders, and stellar service. An awesome spot for a relaxed night out! read more
Last night was the first time I went to Paradise Ciders. One of our friends is in town so a large group of us decided to meet there for some drinks. The worker helped put together several tables to accommodate our big crowd. Friends started trickling in and we had about 20 people by nights end. The service was awesome! A young man was helping us and he was friendly and even changed the tv station to UH volleyball for me! Props to them for that! He left several pitchers of ice water so that was convenient. Paradise Ciders doesn't have food, but there is a food truck parked in the back where you order your food from. Quite a neat concept, makes it easy when coming with a big group, everyone just gets their own food! The place was packed on. Friday night. I am surprised that they close so early at 10:00pm nightly. I had 2 Li Hing Sour drinks which was pretty pricey at $15, but I guess this is the going rate these days for mixed drinks. It was nice and strong! read more

Thursday, trivia night. My husband and I came in and grabbed a table with only 3 chairs, needed 4 for people joining us. We were told we could grab another chair (we were at a low top, no low top chairs available). We were told by two different workers that we could grab high top chair. So we did just that. A couple moments later, the bartender came by and said "Did you take that chair from the bar" my husband said yes we were told we could. She PHYSICALLY grabbed the chair that my husband was sitting on and said " if you are going to take a chair from MY bar I need $20" - saying this while FORCEFULLY pulling the chair from underneath my husband. EXTREMELY RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOR. We walked out. The most nasty behavior I have ever witnessed at a business. read more

ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE This was a large floorplan with a nearly equally-large bar https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=wpZq3eo3a8VUEfFO63LRPw at the center of it all while a plethora of chairs/tables surrounded it https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=0ZTPeqeH1kf5p2SpVuL0KA all the way to the walls. There was also a small outdoor front patio https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=0&select=p77slLuInUDjqf2TQQePhQ area, as well as a stage area for nightly live performances https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=J0mJy9P0tUGSRGtuFbQsHQ in a corner. Plenty of natural lighting came in through the large front opening while many electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were a ton of TVs throughout while on this particular night live music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=xn5QNzpwzvBV2p--3f47CA ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL It was a pleasurable time at Paradise Ciders and I would definitely visit again... maybe to even try their food. They had a very good selection of libations (e.g. beer, ciders, cocktails, wine), the drinks were lovely, prices were comparable, and the service was straightforward. This was also a great place to watch games. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $60.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

Hi Jeff, thank you for the thoughtful review! We are so glad you…
We decided to eat here for dinner one night and just so happened there was a UFC fight so it was perfect! Although we were the only ones with kids this night, the staff were super friendly and accommodating for our family. Our server was so patient with all our questions and had great recommendations! Loved their ciders and they have a sampler so you can try a bunch and make your own set. I liked the ciders more than the seltzer. Definitely would come back for the POG cider! We also enjoyed our food for HI Sliders. Super easy to order online via Toast! I also liked how they have inside and outside seating! read more

Hi Troy, mahalo for checking us out! We're so glad you enjoyed it.…
This place is not to shabby they do have a bit of an interesting atmosphere. You have to order from a food truck for food and pupus and drinks at the bar or through your server. The food was mid and the service was okay. All in all it was an okay experience with not bad food. We did however come to happy hour which I believe that time is the best bang for your buck. They are a dog friendly place so if in the area looking for drinks and you got a pet feel free to stop by. read more

Mahalo for dropping by Chad! Hope to see you in again soon!
Went on a Saturday night and it was pretty quiet inside, not many people which was surprising. The ciders were good, and a lot of different options to pick from whether you like ciders or not they had many options of beverages. Staff was helpful with recommendations! I do wish they stayed open a little later and they should try to liven up the place on the weekends to bring in more people! read more

Hi Mimi! Mahalo for stopping by! We have weekly events on Tuesdays,…
I stumbled across Paradise Ciders when I looked up breweries closest to me. I'm a big fan of ciders so I was excited to try them! Since trying them the first time, I've taken everyone here or told them about it! Every cider I've had is great! I personally love the Killah Dragon and Li Hing Mango. I really don't think you can go wrong with any of them. I don't really like pineapple ciders, but there's isn't too tart or overwhelming on the taste buds. It's just right. It's crisp and refreshing. The pineapple vanilla cream cider however is AMAZING. wow. Must try if they have it! Don't be confused though, they have mixed drinks, and guest taps. So if ciders not your thing, don't worry, plenty of options. They even have seasonal drinks. I went for taco Tuesday and their Margarita specials, every single one was good. Again my favorite was the li hing mango margarita and the spicy one. You can get cheap Tacos from the food truck out back; Hi Sliders. I wasn't pleased with the flavor honestly, but they weren't bad for the price If you want food with your drinks. They did have great fries. The place is small and tucked away a little bit, right by Starbucks. The staff is always very attentive and friendly. Vibes inside are chill. I really love coming here! read more

First time here and was not disappointed. Saw on social media they were offering a limited time special Pineapple Vanilla Cream Float - yep! I'm in! The inside is nice, lots of room at tables and the bar, football playing on the tv, and a food truck set up so you can walk up and order! All of the food items looked delicious but I was here on a mission. The cider float was yummy - cold, tart, and yet creamy and sweet from the ice cream. I'll be back for the other ciders and food soon! read more

Looking for a great Pau Hana date away from the city? Paradise Ciders is the place to come! One of the best happy hour places with affordable and tasty drinks. Happy Hour is M-F (3-6pm) where they have $5 pints, $10 speciality cocktails, and much more! They also have HI sliders on site to order food, as well as specials for Taco Tuesdays. My favorite and consistent order is always the Killah Dragon (Yum Dragonfruit!), Lei'd Back Lilikoi, and Guava Lava Ciders. The Tradewinds cocktails (Gin/yuzu) is good too! Service has been great both times we've been here! Awesome male bartender (Will) that makes great cocktails. There is live music some nights and Trivia Thursdays if you're looking for a fun night activity. Lots of tables to sit for small or big groups, bar seating too. This will definitely be in our rotation for fun and relaxing pau hana time! P.S. if you love their ciders, you can also buy them at various markets around town (Foodland, Tamura's etc) read more

I'm happy to say that Mililani is the home to the first cider company ! After waiting to see what would come of the space known as "the Mills," I was beyond excited to stop in to Paradise Ciders during their opening week. Despite it being their opening week, I must say that they had had things running pretty smoothly. What we loved .. HI sliders food truck located in the bar (need I say more ?) Cool servers Full bar and delicious ciders Lots of TV's in the bar We had a great experience and I'm sure we'll be back again for more delicious sliders and ciders! read more
Love love love this place!! Our group sat at the bar but they have tables as well. Football games were also being shown. I've always been a huge fan of their ciders and was bummed during Covid when I couldn't make it out to their other location when they were open. Nice central location and parking in Mililani. Staff is also kind and welcoming. The ciders are fabulous, fresh, and there are so many options. There are also other local beers available as well. Of course the guava lava and laid back lilikoi are always top notch but I was so pleasantly surprised by their pineapple cider and also the tea based cider that you can choose the added flavor. There's also the hisliders food truck in there with great burgers and other snacks that you can eat while drinking. Will definitely be back! read more
I was really excited to learn that Paradise Ciders opened in Mililani because nothing "special" ever opens out this way. They have a large amount of their Ciders and other beers on tap. No outside food allowed but they have the HI Sliders truck in the back that you can order and eat from. Paradise Ciders is located in the Mililani Shopping Center (same one as Foodland and 24 hour fitness) with ample parking. Staff is friendly and nice and can recommend various ciders to you depending on your preference. read more

My wife and have been going up there for taco Tuesday for awhile. Decided to take the kids with us but one is a picky eater. Called ahead of time to ask if it was ok if we brought in McDonald's for him and was told as long as the rest of us were ordering food and drinks it was ok. Get there and the waitress told us outside food wasn't allowed, told her we called and got permission. Then a few minutes later the bartender came over and told us rudely the food wasn't allowed and we had to take it out. So I took my 9 year to the car so he could eat his dinner. Spent over $100 there but they kicked out my son for eating chicken nuggets. Nice customer service and way to be consistent. read more

Heard of this place through word of mouth and it was pretty awesome. Loved the whole inside/outside dining/drinking vibe. Very easy and chill atmosphere. There is a food cart attached to the restaurant, which you do order your food through a QR code. The food was just ok for me. No flavor in the kalua pork, but the coke slaw was delicious! Our bartender Nicole was absolutely amazing and she recommended some great ciders to try for next time we go, which I definitely will be returning. The staff were all friendly and helpful. read more

So excited that Paradise Ciders opened a location in central Oahu! I've had some of their ciders at other brewpubs and restaurants but never made it out to their taproom in town. They've got lots of tasty, fruity ciders on tap as well as other brews for those who prefer more traditional craft beers. Beer order can be placed with your server. Food is provided by Hi Sliders, and you can place your order and pay for it separately via mobile device. We came on a Saturday night; busy but not super loud and packed. Server took a little long to check in on us at the end of the night, but he was attentive for the most part. Would definitely return! read more

The drink selection had something for everyone, but make sure you start with a flight to sample everything. Here's what we got on our flights: Jasmine Hard Tea Killa Dragon Shortboard Cider Lilikoi Hard Tea Pineapple Hard Tea Tropic Storm Hard Tea. As you can see, this was the first time we saw they had hard teas, so we had to try as many as we could lol. Jasmine was the winner though. They aren't full of sugar like the name brand stuff and are super refreshing. read more

Great spot for hanging out! My fiance and I visited Paradise Ciders after having tried their Mango Li Hung Mui seltzer on the big island and were excited to find a taproom on Oahu, especially after checking out the menu online. We went during happy hour to try some of their popular ciders- between the two of us, we got the Guava Lava, Lei'd Back Lilikoi, Killah Dragonfruit, and Mango Daze ciders. I also got the Washington Apple shooter since I'd never tried the shooter (made with Crown Royale and apple liquer) and the portion was a huge amount for the price! I'd recommend any of the ciders (although we didn't try the ginger one or the apple ones), the ones we had weren't too sweet but you could definitely taste the fruits/flavors. Shout out to our host, Collen, who was very helpful and gave us recommendations which we chose & even gave us recs for the sliders/food onsite (which sadly we were a bit full for), but I'd highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting in Oahu. They also serve beers, cocktails & spirits here! Very cool vibes forsure. They have trivia nights on Thursdays at 7 pm (I believe) but get there early since they get crowded. Happy hour deals on drinks are also great! read more

Paradise Ciders is a great place to unwind with family & friends, and enjoy drinks. I went on a lively Friday night with a big group, and it was a packed house. However, the servers did their best to accommodate everyone and seat people as they arrived. There was a lot of bar seating available and tables for two people. Just a note that Paradise Ciders provide the drinks while HI Sliders take care of the food orders. There's a QR code on the table that'll let you view the Paradise Cider drinks menu, and you can place a drink order through your server. To place orders for food, there's a QR code on the HI Sliders menu, and you can place an order and pay online. Paradise Ciders has a variety of drink selections from their signature drinks, craft ciders and seltzers to shooters, draft beers, etc. There are even non-alcoholic drinks options. Scrolling through the menu, it was hard to choose because everything sounded good. I ordered the Cruzer Colada, and it was sweet and refreshing. I also tried the Lilikoi Road, which was a nice combination of sweet and tart with a dash or two of bitters. The way our server, Brett, could remember who ordered what despite our big group is pretty cool, and he really took care of us. Overall, the entire staff was friendly and provided quick service. Besides the drinks and food, the live music entertainment was a plus. Shoutout to Brada Brey for his awesome performance on Friday!! He livened up the atmosphere with his rhythmic music styling. His unique renditions of island music, R&B, and hip-hop leave you in a feel-good mood and help you relax after a long day or week. We hope to see him perform here often. ;) read more

This place deserves more than 5 stars. I got the bacon jam sliders, house Cobb salad, li hing mango cider, and mango cider. The service is very excellent as I sat at the bar. I went during happy hour which is 5 dollar ciders! I should have just got the salad without the sliders because that salad filled me up. It is so tasteful and filling. The ambiance is very chill. They do however have live bands at night. I definitely recommend this place! I will definitely be coming back here. read more
