This hidden gem in Kailua has everything from wine, beer, spirits, and even some awesome non-alcoholic options- all lined up on their wall. You can even order online and pick it up in an hour, or I believe you can even get it delivered. The first time I came in here - I actually just got a soda (oli pop) to go. More than just a bottle shop, you can stay and drink inside or they have outdoor seating as well. Plus, they're dog friendly!! I recently came in with my group of Pilates pals. My friends picked from their wine list and a few of them got some non-alcoholic ginger beer. I went with their mezcal and ginger and LOVED my drink. Perfect mix of smokey and sweet. For a bottleshop the food here is actually so good! We shared the hummus plate- they get their hummus from ulu mana; 3 different types of hummus made from ulu! Paired with crackers and different types of pickles. Highly highly recommend - perfect for sharing with a group over drinks!I ordered the grilled cheese and added prosciutto! They get their sourdough bread from the bread shop and it's stuffed with sharp cheddar, aged gouda & provolone. It's all about the bread here, perfectly crispy and so good with all that gooey cheese. We asked them to cut it into 4s in the back so we could all share. Vibes? Immaculate. Drinks? Flowing. Food? Delicious. Service? Top notch.

VIBEY PARADISE in PARADISE. The vibe of this place stopped me in my TRACKS! I was walking to another restaurant to meet my lady when I came up on BOTTLEHEADS patio. Chill music. Dim lighting. Ladies enjoying glasses of wine and bites. I go in check it out, tell dude man we will come back next time we are in town. I walked out, took ten steps and turned around. The time is NOW. I texted my lady to meet me there.I had a delightful bottle of German Pilsner while I waited- the beers and wine are finely curated. The food list is short and sweet. Perfect for noshies. My lady said the deviled eggs w caviar were the best she ever had- we had to order another round. The grilled cheese was crispy gooey sourdough goodness. Im telling you this spot is a VIBE. I Shazammed five songs in the first hour!By now we've started chatting with Nate, the very accommodating and interesting sommelier- ended up in a full on amazing conversation with him and a table of lovely ladies who meet there every week. It was a scene!!!I generally do not drink that much lately and I was a liiiiiil tipsy walking out. To the credit of their wine quality, I woke up feeling great for our last sunrise over the ocean. BOTTLEHEADS or BUST!

Good hidden spot to stop by for casual drinking and food in Kailua. Decent spot to pick up beers, wine, other spirits before heading to the beach. Pretty affordable prices and unique items. You can even choose your own drinks for purchase and drink it there! They have free wine tastings on Thursdays, which make it very popular day to come! You can also join their wine club if you're interested in that. Butcher and Bird items available for purchase here. Charcuterie cheese boards too! Street parking only. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Service was nice and helpful.

Hi. There are 4 of us writing this review. We love bottleheards. You can't get these wines anywhere else. We love Pablo. Next.Bottle heads truly understands the Kailua experience. They make you feel like you are home and make a genuine connection with you as well as making outstanding reccomendations on their unique wine and bourbon collection. Bottleheads in Kailua offers a cozy escape where unique wines and bourbon flow as freely as the warm welcome extended to every guest, fur friends included, making everyone feel like old pals gathered for a good time.The service and the wine selection is unparalleled. We can't reccomend this place enough

Consistent friendly service, ambience is ok, inside you hear everyone's conversations, as there is no music, except the tv sometimes. A/C is cranked on high so it's a bit chilly. I think outside seating is better. My go to is the hummus plate which is so delicious! Drink is FeverTree tonic which is also one of my favorite drinks.A big gripe for my husband is that they have a "corkage" fee for a bottle of beer. This is absurd!Also, the restrooms are in the complex 3 flights upstairs which is an inconvenience. It would be nice if Bottleheads had a restroom for customers.

Buyer beware! I suffered the biggest rip off from a place that I can remember. I went in to look around and saw they had a four pack of Hana Koa, which I like and since I want to support local businesses and products, I bought it. I got charged over $25 for the four pack. It seemed expensive but decided to go ahead with the purchase. When I got home I checked the pricing against two places -Hana Koa was $10 cheaper and Village Beer Shop was $11 cheaper. I called Bottleheads, thinking it was a mistake in the price. The staff person there confirmed the pricing and indicated that was the pricing the owner wanted. I was told they'd have the owner call me. He/they never did. Never going back and will warn my friends as well.

If you are coming for a quick bite, make sure you have a lot of time to spare.Came here to try the grilled cheese sandwich I'd heard about and I want to say the grilled cheese was amazing! It came out quickly, the cheese was warm but not too hot. The bread was crunchy and delicious. I was served by a nice gentleman who made a great recommendation for wine to pair with the sandwich.For drinks, there are many options to choose from. They have a large variety of spirits, beers, and wines.The location is great with a lot of parking available in the square located in between the buildings. The reason for the three stars is because of the responsiveness of the staff. Although the grilled cheese and wine were amazing, they couldn't make up for the wait.Long story short, there were two people working, but one was not providing any assistance, but rather spent the whole time on their phone. While I was waiting to have my order taken, I saw a small family leave after only drinks, and later while walking home I saw them eating food somewhere else. There was a person sitting next to me who asked for her check and didn't receive it for around 8 minutes. The gentleman who served me was doing the best he could, but I could tell he had his hands full.I will probably go back with friends and a different mindset, knowing that this place operates at a slower pace than I was expecting.

This place is such a fun addition to Kailua! AMAZING grilled cheese (so big it's definitely shareable). They have a great selection of beer, wine and spirits. They serve hard alcohol on the rocks, wine, beer and their own whiskey!! I wish they could do mixed drinks but there's a large enough selection that it's almost not needed! The corkage fee is very high and definitely stopped me from purchasing more even though I was going to drink it in the shop. Also, it would be awesome to have the patio open at night!
