Chunky is basically heaven for cookie lovers. I don't make it out to Laie often, but whenever I do,…read morethis spot is non-negotiable. It's tucked inside Pounders at the PCC Hukilau Marketplace. There's no indoor seating, but there are plenty of tables scattered around outside, which makes it a nice place to hang out. The first thing you'll notice is how massive the cookies are. They come in a variety of flavors like chocolate chip, white chocolate mac nut, and s'mores, but the real star of the show (and the reason I keep coming back) is the cookie skillet. I usually go for the keiki size, which is honestly perfect for sharing. The family size is huge! The skillet itself is incredible--warm, gooey cookie with just the right balance of sweetness and a hint of salt. It's topped with a generous scoop of ice cream and your choice of sauce drizzled over the top. My go-to is the brown butter fudge. It does take about 15 minutes to prepare, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Pro tip: order it first, then take a stroll around the marketplace while it bakes. Already looking forward to my next visit!

When in the need for something sweet, this is a great treat!" SERVICE: friendly INTERIOR: inside Pounders Restaurant EXTERIOR: located in the middle of The Polynesian Cultural Center WAIT TIME: 5-10 mins PARKING: plenty in lot OVERALL COMMENTS: wanted to try out all the cookies bc they looked so good! Was satisfied with our choices. For the sundae they heat up the chunky OG cookie n' I was pleasantly surprised how the ice cream didn't melt right away. Was excited for the pb caramel sauce that was ofc tasty. All cookies had a crisp-crunchy exterior n' were jumbo in size, which makes sense for the price. Took bites of everything then when we got home popped them in the microwave. Prefer them to be warm n' eaten with the chocolate a lil' melted, makes it even more better than at room temp. If I'm back in the area n' craving cookies, I would visit them again!

The açaí bowl was delicious and fruit was so fresh. Definitely coming back here again.read more

Really cute truck with super friendly staff!…read more I got a pretty tasty acai bowl from here and appreciated all the options for customization. They have a ton of toppings and sauces to choose from and the option to pick yogurt or acai as a base. My acai was good, a little icy but still tasty. For the size, I think these bowls are a little on the pricey side, but could be justified for a once in a while treat. This truck is located near multiple other food trucks, which I appreciate because it gave us the option to try lots of different places without having to walk far. Plenty of seating nearby and a place to wash your hands if needed.

Aloha General Store deserves a lot more attention for its shave ice. While many visitors head to…read morethe famous spots in Haleʻiwa, this little gem quietly serves one of my favorite shave ice on the North Shore. For just $5, the small size is actually pretty generous. Even better, it comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream hidden at the bottom, making it an incredible value. I chose Melona, strawberry, and coconut, and all three flavors were vibrant, refreshing, and not overly sweet. The shave ice itself was soft, fluffy, and melted perfectly in your mouth. The store also sells souvenirs and gifts, but I came strictly for the shave ice, and I'd happily come back just for that. It's refreshing, affordable, and surprisingly underrated. If you're in Haleʻiwa and looking for a delicious shave ice without the long lines, don't overlook Aloha General Store. It may not be the most talked-about spot, but it definitely deserves a place on your shave ice list.

And the juices are amazing -- super refreshing and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. They have such a great selection of everything.

The staff is always so nice, welcoming, and genuinely fantastic. They make the whole experience even better. There's also plenty of space outside to sit and eat, which makes it such a nice spot to hang out and enjoy your food. Definitely one of my favorite places to stop!

Seeing this little stall within the Hukilau Marketplace, next to Polynesian Cultural Center really reminded me of the time when mixing sodas (at McDs) was fun. I wonder if that was the inspiration! I didn't see those on the menu, but they have many other soda creations--including iced coffee, boba drinks, crafted waters, energy mixed drinks, farm to cup specialty drinks, and frozen drinks. Got a little bit of everything! I like how they incorporate Hawaiian Pidgin to name some of the drinks. It's a test to see who is local lol. "Ho cuz, can I get one da kine holoholo and small kine Broke Da Mouth? Shoooots!" That's four drinks right there. Ordered a Pink Plumeria (lemonade and strawberry, guava with fresh berries). With these mixed soda drinks, there's a little worry it might be too sweet, but this was not the case at all. Very clean flavors that were well balanced between sweet and sour. The lady at the counter was very nice and friendly. Sodabomb is definitely a unique place as I can't think of any other place that does this, especially with sodas. For sure a must stop while you're in Laie! I'll be back for more!

I've attempted to contact them multiple times. they have either not responded, or told me they were being shipped but refuse to give me answers or even a simple tracking number. I understand shipments can get lost or things happening, and love small businesses and am happy to work through hick-ups to be patient. But they refuse to even provide me a tracking number for the shipment which makes me fear that they are not going to ship my jars and have just stolen my money. This is the least professional business I've ever worked with. I would take your business elsewhere. We spoke to a different farm while there who said that these guys stole their products anyways so maybe try the originals instead. I hate writing bad reviews, but don't want others to get duped
