Secret Spot is a place worth knowing about! In the heart of Waikiki, it caters to a mixed local crowd and visitors alike. It's part art gallery, part bar, and live music venue. Depending on the time of day you come, it can be relaxing with sofa seating, bar seating, and cafe tables. They have a great happy hour menu, fun foods, and tons of drink options. I've been now also during concert nights and the place can get packed. If you really want to see a band, be sure to buy tickets early for entry as at-the-door entry may not be available. Prices are reasonable for drinks and tickets. Bartender Kama was super attentive and friendly all evening on a recent visit, mahalo! If you like pop culture art, local music, and contemporary Hawaii culture, this is a great place to come and have fun. read more

I used to love the gallery, but this new version called secret spot is an absolute trash hole. I cannot stress this enough: every person who works here is rude AF with a bad attitude. They legitimately hate their customers. I wish I could describe the vile behavior of these kooks. Everytime I come here I leave more disappointed. Plus overpriced bad drinks and a terrible layout for listening to music. Don't bother. read more

Went in for the convenience of being next door to where I am staying and for the $12 breakfast special. To my surprise it's a hook to over charge you. 5 x specials came out to $118.48 and that was after I checked my receipt and notice that had added the charge for 3 additional drinks. They had already up charged $3 for cranberry juice which was not notified. They took my order after about 30 minutes after we were served our drinks, 30 minutes to serve our food. And they weren't even busy... looked like they took the order, served and then took next... etc. Not greeted, not thanked. Ridiculously overpriced for eggs, bacon, 1/2 toast and 2 slices or orange juice.. $6 juice. Regret leaving a tip at all. read more

Great and friendly staff! The chicken wing appetizer was fire--crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and coated in a flavorful sauce with just the right kick. The live band, HI Standard, kept the energy high with infectious rhythms and soulful vocals, while the lively atmosphere, warm lighting, and upbeat crowd made the venue feel welcoming and electric! read more

Secret Spot Honolulu was within a five minute walking distance from the hotel I was staying at. Didn't get a chance to try the breakfast or dinner but I did get to try the latte -- definitely one of the best that I've had. Affordably priced and good latte! Staff were very friendly and kind; lovely experience. Very trendy and chill ambience. Looking forward to trying breakfast next time along with my latte! ***** SECRET SPOT HONOLULU ***** FIVE STARS read more

I came to this place for breakfast and also at night for live music and cocktails. Let's start with breakfast, I ordered morning feast which came with salad, eggs, bacon, sausage, toasts and fruit. It tasted healthy but i believe it was a bit overpriced. Service was great and employees are very attentive. They have very cozy interior with small stage. I found out that the have live band at night so I have decided to come back again at night. I ordered old fashioned and it was very good. I also got complimentary popcorn. Music was great, food was good. Will be back. read more

Came in looking for a cafe offering seating to do some computer work from. Found it, and it also came with friendly service, and a happy hour that starts at noon. Win win win ***Fun fact, they have live music nightly 9pm. What did Eat? Pizza and Tai combo on day 1. The pizza could've had a better bite to the crust. Priced at $12 during happy hour. 3/5 stars Ham and Cheese Croissant with side salad on Day 2. The croissant itself was a little small and on the soft side. Didn't feel very fresh. Edible but could be improved. 3/5 Day 3 and 4 stuck to Happy Hour: Grey Goose and Tonic For $5 a glass, you can't beat that. 5/5 stars Food and Beverage aside, Secret Spot is also home to a great collection of art and collectibles. I'm told that most of what's on display is from the personal collection of one of the owners. Tristan Eaton, OG Slick and Dalek are just a few names a recognize and personally collect. I should also mention, they have shop merch that's fly, not your typical coffee shop merch. Overall for me, Secret Spot felt like a little piece of home away from home. I will definitely be coming back whenever I'm on the island. Shout out to the daytime crew i had the pleasure of meeting. They stay on task but still keep a chill and down to earth vibe. Shout out to Dev and Nessa for the hospitality while i was hanging out. Keep up the good vibes Secret Spot crew! Till next time! read more

Not really sure if I would come here again, especially with other options in the area. Food was decent, but not enough to justify the price. First, don't miss the entrance. This is probably why it has its name, but you just need to go up a mini flight of stairs to the right of some escalators. I took the escalators, which goes completely past the floor this place is on, so I ended up taking the elevator back down. Hopefully nobody noticed the unnecessary loop I made. Upon walking in, I was greeted by one of the ladies by the bar, who let me know I could sit anywhere since it was just me. There was some seating I noticed towards the back where it looks like it's meant for live entertainment, but I decided to sit outside at one of the tables up against the sidewalk since it was a nice day. The menu was the design on the table, which I thought was a neat idea, but not really ideal when I have to crank my neck just to see it properly. I had just worked out, so decided to get the Morning Feast over the Avocado Toast since it seemed like more protein, and even added extra eggs despite the price of the add-on. It didn't take very long to come out, but for some reason I was expecting bigger items. The eggs tasted fine, and were cooked exactly as I had asked, over easy. Salad lacked much depth, but the dressing, I think balsamic, did save it a little bit. Sausage was delicious, but I wish there was more that came with the plate. And the toast was just toast. Nothing exciting about it. I used it to clean up the yolk from my eggs to give it some purpose besides just providing carbs. My bill after a 20% tip came out to ~$36.00. For a meal that requires minimal skill to assemble, I thought this was just ridiculous, but makes sense considering it's in the tourist area. Also, it takes a lot for me not to tip 20%, but the service wasn't anything I would consider amazing, especially considering some of the service I've had during my trip. Nonetheless, this place met my minimum requirements. I'm just really having a hard time justifying the price with the food. read more

Solid happy hour from noon until 7:00. Decent drink specials. Lots of live music. Service is lacking in speed but makes up for it in friendliness. It's odd - to open a tab, they require ID and credit card, which they hold on to. We didn't eat here, but the food looked really good from the tables around us. read more

Fantastic happy hour spot. Great drink and food specials, super friendly service, and they even bring out complimentary popcorn snack mix, which makes it feel extra welcoming right away.

Well this place is no so secret, that is for sure. It gets pretty busy but they have a really good happy hour. You really can't beat $5 mai tais when a block away they are like $20. They make them strong too. We stopped in a few times while vacationing for a strong mai tai and to try their flat bread. We ordered one, but the guy ordered and charged us for 2. That was a bit annoying but we ended up taking it back to our hotel and eating it for a midnight snack. It was decent. Nothing too crazy. read more

Let me tell you about my experience at this wonderful place!!! We got dropped off by our Uber and right away, the name of the restaurant caught our eye. As soon as we walked in, I instantly fell in love with the vibe. The lighting, the decorations, the bar area... everything was such a whole mood. We were greeted by the bartender, who let us know happy hour was ending in two minutes and we made it just in time! We ordered the $5 mai tais (we got four of them) and the $5 pizza. Such a good deal, especially since the pizza is normally $15. The menu also looked like it had a lot of great options, so I definitely want to come back and try more. What really impressed me was how much there was to look at inside. The merch was gorgeous and the whole place felt like walking through an art museum -- every corner had something unique and fabulous. It's seriously so Instagram-worthy and selfie-worthy. While we were sitting down, one of the associates even stopped by and offered us free popcorn, which was such a sweet touch. I also noticed there were a few three-legged dogs just chilling and vibing together, which was honestly the cutest sight. There's also a nice little area where you can hang out and listen to live music apparently there's a band every night at 9 PM. I'll definitely be back again soon. Happy hour was such a bang for your buck, especially for Waikiki! And to top off the night, right when we got dropped off, a man handed us some leis and told us "God bless," which was such a kind and wholesome way to start the evening. I loved everything about this place and will definitely be back! read more

This was definitely a hidden gem. We stumbled upon this place while looking for a breakfast place our kids would enjoy. I saw a sign that said $10 breakfast and I was sold. The host/servers were super friendly and seated us right away. We were surrounded by cool art and a DJ that brought the vibe to another level. The DJ's set was absolutely amazing and he played some good old songs from the early 2000's that took us back. The food came out quick and did not disappoint. Everything was delicious, fresh, and tasted good. The drinks were tasty and had a good amount of alcohol. The prices were very reasonable and my kids loved their food, which was a plus. Overall great place and a must try! read more

Came for a quick breakfast. Cute restaurant with nice setup of tables and chairs outside patio area. We ordered their Morning Feast that came with bacon, 2-eggs, sausages, salads, white bread toasted, and orange slices. Not bad of a taste. American breakfast with a cup of Cappuccino in the morning. Good service and friendly waiters. Everything was served warmed and received our order in timely manner. Enjoyable breakfast while watching people go by on the street. read more

Service was great! No issues there. The ambiance and decor was nice. Food was okay. Not impressed with the avocado toast. Tasted like the avocado was from the Costco spread containers instead of fresh avocados. The guava sauce was yummy, not too sweet. The waffle was just okay, a bit dense for my taste. Not a memorable meal but passes due to location and convenience. read more

Only poopy part is PARKING! I had to park at international market place. Parking was a total of $56!!! I went into a store there and had to buy $25 worth of things just for validation.... Then pay $36 to get out ANYWAY .... So I paid an EXTRA $11 WITH validation, instead of just paying and NOT validating!! I recommend just doing Valet at Laylow hotel. Dancefloor was FUN. The ambiance was a great time. Their staff is very friendly and FAST with their drinks... and for Waikiki, their drinks are VERY CHEAP. Restrooms are CLEAN and COLD. So it's great after a long night. 10/10 recommend We WILL be back. read more

My family and I were looking for a nice breakfast after a failed attempt at getting service at IHop lol we bumped into Secret Spot! It was a great spot from the front door, very clean and super chill ambiance! The walls are filled with art and items you can buy, the service was GREAT! Our host Via was AMAZING!! Extremely friendly, support attentive and helpful. Which made our experience soo much better, the food was great!! We had Banana French toast, super fluffy and filled of sweetness! And you can never forget the portugués sausage, a staple! Definitely recommend to anyone in the area visiting or on vacation! read more

This place has a really good happy hour and it gets popping off at night on the weekends. I would suggest getting there early if you're trying to get in. I've never personally eat here, but my friend did and it's your typical breakfast. I did enjoy the music at night here which was really cool since it was a local band read more

Definitely the best Happy Hour deal in Waikiki! Our server Bryan was super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the beers and mai tais. The Pepperoni and Margarita Pizza were delicious. There is a stage for live bands to perform. I would definitely come back if we stayed longer in Waikiki. They have a cool retro arcade game, NBA Jam which we enjoyed! Great deals, friendly service, modern ambiance and clean restrooms. I highly recommend! read more

Happy hour? More like happy all day. They have "happy hour" specials from 12pm-7pm everyday! With deals like $5 mimosas and mai tais, to $3 beers and even food and drink combo deals where you can get a pizza and beer for $10 or pizza and a mai tai for $12. In Waikiki, it's hard to find happy hour deals that go this hard and for most of the day! Located nearby the Laylow hotel and the International Marketplace- it's in a prime location in Waikiki. I would probably suggest parking at the international marketplace (buying something there to get the parking validation) and walking over from there. I really like the vibe here, it feels very bright, open, and local. I love all of the local art that they sell here, I see a lot of my favorite local artist on their walls and selling their prints / merch. I wish more people knew about their happy hour but what I think they are more known for are there coffee and breakfast / brunch. They have a full coffee bar, smoothies, and food like waffles, sandwiches, and acai bowls. I love the vibe here, especially when they have live music playing. If you're in Waikiki and wanna check out some local art while sipping on coffee or a cocktail - def check this spot out. read more

We found this breakfast place right next to the laylow hotel. Ambiance- 4/5. It's a cool modern art vibe restaurant. Service - 3/5. People are nice enough. Food - 2/5. Nothing is bad, but it's not a place you come to find an amazing food. You can easily make their food at home. Cappuccino- 2.5/5. If you like a bold flavored cappuccino, go to Kona purveyor or island vintage. Now we've tried their food and drinks, we don't have to come back here again unless someone wants to come here badly. read more

Super cool art filled ambiance and music with a live DJ who went home at noon. Thought it was funny because happy hour was from 12-7 so he's a morning DJ? They had some cool Super Secret swag and other gift items. Service was friendly but inattentive and a little unpolished otherwise I might have added a star. We were told breakfast ends at 12:00 so that we would need to order soon if we wanted breakfast. We waited but I had to go ask them to order and even then they did not come to our table till 11:56. I got the avocado toast which was actually one of the better ones that I've had with lots of goodies on it including tomatoes, feta, raisins, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds which gave it some crunch. Yum! It was very tasty and had color and texture unlike some others. I had wanted an açaí bowl but decided against it since the AC inside was quite cool. They offer a traditional breakfast called the morning feast and waffles as well. One friend got a bacon bagel and the other got a caprese sandwich both of which came with salad and a slice of pineapple. Would go back to try other breakfast items and/or happy hour. read more

Such a fun place to hang out and have drinks, the bartenders, cooks and servers provide such great service. I recommend going at night for live music entertainment, especially on Wednesday/Thursday ;) we have some really talented local artists here and I'm happy that secret spot creates a space for them to thrive. They also have tons of art for sale, and the way the place is decorated is different, fun but cozy. Parking is tricky, if you are staying in Waikīkī it'd better to walk than drive. They are located near Laylow but look for the light up sign or music playing, you can't miss it! Follow aaliyahxxm_ read more

Open to the 20's and 30's audience. We are in our 40's and we can't vibe like that no more. It wasn't relaxing to me. lol The espresso martini was nice but I think Tommy Bahama hit it out of the park for us. Sorry! I had the mojito and it didn't do justice for me. It was a buzz kill and our tab for the two drinks came out about $38. Idk, our first time there. Live music and it just started getting packed so I needed to check out. We love music but when you come up to a place and don't know how to act or carry yourself. It don't look good. read more

Came for the happy hour. The mai tais were so good, if we didn't have somewhere to be- we would've sat there and drank them all night long. The happy hour was superior compared to surrounding places.

The girls were circling to take our order for the next round before we were even half way through our drinks read more
