She took the time to genuinely talk with us, explain her blends, and share the story behind them, which made the experience feel personal and special. She also let us taste test several of her family seasonings -- and they were AMAZING. You can truly taste the quality and creativity in each blend. It's clear she puts so much care and passion into what she creates. If you're driving by her store, definitely stop in. It's truly a hidden gem and absolutely worth the visit!

Especially considering this is a favorite spot for some of Kauai's finest parents that allow their unsupervised children to run around and scream all day. Other fruits and nuts can also be found frequenting this store so give the staff some love.

Tried the locally made lilikoi pie and it was very delicious and refreshing with immaculate ingredients. They had a chocolate one too that I wanted to try but didn't get a chance to. Hopefully they have it next year when we're back for our 5th annual trip! They also carry Alexandre Family Farms dairy which is very hard to find on the island. It's the only place I've seen it at on Kauai. We tried a little locally made gourmet truffle that was rich and yummy. They also sell locally made sourdough bread loaves and focaccia that we love! I've visited their location in Koloa and liked it as well. There's always a nice lady checking us out no matter when we go or which location we go to. Thank you to all at Hoku Foods!

I especially adored the kids lunch boxes they had and definitely would've gotten one for my niece if she wasn't years away from needing one. There's a pretty big range for the price. For some, I was surprised they were more inexpensive than they looked. Others, my jaw dropped at the price tag. I ended up finding one shirt I really liked while browsing. Unfortunately, the size I needed wasn't available. It's definitely worth a stop and one of the better clothing shops in the area.

She proceeded to ignore me and my husband, until my husband went outside to wait for me allowing me time to enjoy shopping, as he was getting angry at the way I was being ignored. I had several items and put everything back as I was not going to support a business that did not welcome and treat local people with the same friendliness, welcome and Aloha she was showing tourists.

The first thing to know about this place is that it's in a strange spot. It shares space with an…read moreAce Hardware store, and from the outside it looks much more like a hardware store much more than a crafts store. This isn't as well-stocked as a decent arts and crafts stores on the mainland. But it's not on the mainland, is it? And mail order to Kauai takes forever. It's great to have your crafts goodies right away. My four-year-old had an assignment to do while we were away on Kauai: hand-made Valentine's cards for his preschool classmates, due the day after we returned home. We visited the store and got a package of nice pink construction paper, a scissors (since we didn't think to bring one), and an assortment of Valentine-themed stickers. I had my own craft project: replacing the cord that kept my wife's hat from blowing off her head. I got some decorative cord that made the hat look cooler than it had before the old cord started falling to pieces, and a sewing kit so I could do the repairs. (The kit's scissors was useless, but my boy's scissors did the job.) My wife needed something here too: fountain pen ink. She didn't find the really fancy stuff she likes to write with, but they had a nice selection of colors of a more commonplace brand. I kind of like the idea of a craft store sharing space with a hardware store. After all, some crafts use hardware store types of products. Carpentry is a craft, for example, and one can build a painter's from hardware store lumber. The people here were friendly, and seemed familiar with both the crafts and the hardware sides of the store. This is definitely the best arts and crafts supply store on the island, but competition is thin. The only other arts and crafts place on the island that I could find with a web search was actually a framing store, and doesn't even sell frames, except with its framing services. Fortunately, although this store has no arts and crafts competition other than really slow mail order, it doesn't rest on its monopoly status. Prices are decent, the range of products for office is decent, and it has good employees.
