From upscale culinary showcases to mom-and-pop eateries with generations of flavor, every meal tells a story.
On select Friday evenings, the Bayview Night Market brings a fresh, laid-back energy to Oʻahu’s Windward side. Set against the dramatic slopes of the Koʻolau Mountains at the scenic Bay View Golf Course in Kāneʻohe, this monthly event is a celebration of local flavor, creativity, and community spirit. Just minutes from Kailua and Kāneʻohe Bay, the market offers a relaxed, open-air way to wind down the week—one that feels a world away from the bustle of Honolulu.
In the laid-back heart of historic Haleʻiwa Town—where surfboards lean against colorful storefronts and salt air lingers over art galleries—Matsumoto Shave Ice stands as one of Oʻahu’s most beloved institutions. For generations, this cheerful little shop has been the go-to stop for a cool, nostalgic treat that captures the very essence of Hawaiian comfort and joy.
