Haleiwa Store Lots

A whole Lots of fun...Going up north in the past few years usually has been for the beach as getting through Haleiwa Town was a place that I go to a specific place and not the more frequent back half that's much more popular with the visitors and what a surprise I was in for as I notice the Hale'iwa Store Lots.Many things have changed for sure and the definite one is parking...yup whaaaatttt!?! Though no it's the biggest lot to brag about but knowing that there is a designated private lot for the shops and restaurants making it so much more accessible along with restroom makes it even more enticing to take a peek which is what I did and what a layout it was.Impressed with the shops and restaurants available and to my knowledge not a single vacant space speaks volumes, a great place for everyone to enjoy weather it's for a eat, shop or just take a break which is what I did.Thank you!

Some cool shops, a pretty courtyard, restrooms, and lots of parking makes this open-air, plantation-inspired, chicken-friendly, 27,000 square foot, retail center consisting of five repurposed historic buildings a must-stop on your North Shore tour.The biggest draw is Matsumoto's Shave Ice which people think is cool. Literally. The biggest surprise was Snoopy's Surf Shop, twice the size of the Diamond Head location. They have Whaler's General Store and 17 other businesses, many with roots in the area, including (as of 2/2023).Island Wear: Guava Shop (curated boutique specializing in beachy-chic), Kahala (modern vintage-inspired Aloha shirt), Mahina Boutique for women, Malibu Shirts (apparel doubling as museum), Splash! and T&C Surf (swimwear), and Snoopy's Surf Shop (separate review).Dining: Rajanee Thai Haleiwa, Teddy's Bigger Burgers (and mini Tiki bar), and Uncle Bo's Pupu Bar & GrillDrinks/Snacks: locally-sourced Hale'iwa Cane Juice, Island Vintage Coffee, and Matsumoto Shave Ice (separate review)Jewelry/Speciality: Beachwalk Gallery, Maui Divers Jewelry (w/ a very knowledgable worker), Moanu Woods. Art: Clark Little Gallery, Polu Gallery. and 808 Henna waterproof services.Mall-oha!

Pretty sure most people were their for the Hawaiian ice. I didn't have any because the line was too long for me. However, decent amount of shops. I didn't find anything and lots of things closed at 5:pm.They did have two "art galleries" but those were closed by the time we got there.The seating areas were covered with peoples melted ice...syrup.The trash cans had swarms of bees... I still reluctantly used them but I was worried...

Parking, shopping, and snacking in Haleiwa Town, Oahu...Whenever I go to the North Shore, I usually park at Haleiwa Store Lots because:1. It's free2. There's outdoor dining (picnic tables and chairs)3. There are many types of shops4. Matsumoto Shave Ice and Island Vintage Coffee are here5. The restrooms are clean (get the code for the door)Later in the day, the parking lot fills up, so, get here early!Note: Matsumoto opens at 10am. Island Vintage Coffee opens at 7am as of 5-12-22

I visited the Haleiwa Store Lot in Hawaii specifically for the shave ice. The space was pleasant, with a fake grass area and picnic tables. I appreciated having a water station available. There's also a variety of shops to choose from, making it a good value destination. Service wasn't relevant here.

Nice shopping center. We came here to visit Matsumoto Shave Ice and it's located within the Haleiwa Store Lots. Found street parking but they have a parking lot nearby. The shopping center isn't very large. We were in and out pretty quickly. Restrooms are available and you will need a code to get in. When we purchased our shave ice from Matsumoto, the code was printed on a piece of paper in front of the cashier. Some merchants here are:* Matsumoto Shave Ice* Rajanee Thai Haleiwa* Global Creations* Whaler's General Store* Hale'iwa Fruit Stand* Guava Shop* Clark Little Gallery* Better Homes and Gardens Advantage Realty Office* Mā'ilikūkahi Hale - Kamehameha Schools* North Shore Information Center* Malibu Shirts* Kahala Sportswear* T&C Surf* Splash!* Mahina* Teddy's Bigger Burgers* Island Vintage Coffee* Polu Gallery* Uncle Bo's Pupu Bar & Grill* Fatboy's* Maui Divers Jewelry* Pick-a-Pearl by Maui Divers Jewelry* Sunrise Shells Hawaii Overall, I'm glad we got a chance to visit!

My group of four came here for one purpose. Since we were here anyways, we decided to explore Haleiwa Store Lots. We got here on Monday, March 4th around 2:45pm.We visited a good amount of stores. Got shave ice from Matsumoto, some alcohol from Whaler's, food from Fatboy's, tea from Island Vintage, cigars from Global Creations, etc. We were here for a good hour plus and even came back to grab dinner later in the day. Parking was super easy. There's a lot in the back with plenty of spots.Small shopping plaza, but worth exploring if coming here for Matsumoto's.

Well maintained parking lot. It can get full as there are a number of poplar eateries. This plaza also has restrooms that appear to be cleaned often.

I am so happy to see this shopping center in Haleiwa! This small surf town needed a ravamped area for locals and tourist to eat, use the bathroom, hang out and shop after a nice beach day. I love the new eateries here such as Uncle Bo's and Island Vintage. There is a nice selection of stores to visit such as an art gallery, bathing suit store, surf shops and trendy boutiques.I'm so glad to see decent bathroom with more than 3 stalls! It looks like they occasionally have it locked but on a Saturday it was unlocked and you didn't need a code. I'd love to see more parking spaces in the future if that's possible. It took a few minutes for me to get parking but it took my friend 20 minutes to find a parking spot.

This review is specifically for the new property manager Cris! She is an angel, the security accidentally towed my car and she helped me through out the stressful process and made sure I was taken care of. I have been having a rough year as I just lost my mother and didn't have the finances to cover these expenses and she really helped make sure I got my car back and was taken care of. I can't thank her enough. Also Rajanee, Teddys, Uncle Bo's and Motsumotos are pretty delicious. Try them all
