Lawson Station

Shaved Ice!Low-key, one of the best spots on the island for shaved ice. Right next to the Moana surf rider hotel, this is Jim gives you all your sweet tooth is looking for.My only problem here is there is no seating and you have to find somewhere to tuck away to eat or enjoy your food. We were staying at the Western next-door, so we're looking enough to be able to sit down in the lobby and enjoy on a sunny Hawaiian day.

I kept passing this place walking up and down Waikiki so I finally stopped so my little one could have a rainbow shave ice. I should've grabbed two because he didn't share. I have been to Lawson before but that was in Japan.. this one is different. They had some Oden, which I have never had outside of the frozen one you boil yourself from the Japanese market.. so I bought a few pieces and ate it back in my hotel room. It was nice and carby and the broth was similar to the one that comes in the frozen Oden kit I eat.IDK about the service. The lady who helped me was friendly and nice, but another customer tried to order coffee and the guy working there made fun of her because they didn't sell coffee there.. kind of harsh tbh.

Lawson is a chain of convenient stores, and they have drinks, beverages, snacks, and shave ice.We stopped by to see if they had any snacks that we could purchase to go, but their selection was slightly limited.Staff were friendly, and the place is nestled on a busy street near Waikiki Beach.+limited snack items+friendly service

A small market at the end of the Waikiki strip, just before reaching the beach, was the perfect spot for a quick snack. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a wider photo, but it's essentially a convenience store. I loved the variety of onigiri options and chose one for my beach snack. I'd definitely stop by again if I'm in the area!

We decided to try out some shaved ice from here since my cousin recommended it for a quick bite. We went on 7/4 after walking around a bit after dinner. We decided to get the lilikoi & mango snow ice, ali'i mega soft serve, and a new item with melon ice cream (can't remember the name unfortunately). The snow ice and soft serve definitely satisfied our sweet cravings after dinner and were quickly finished off. The fruits were frozen rather than fresh, but not that big of a deal considering it's a convenience store after all. I only tried a bit of the melon but I didn't enjoy the artificial melon flavor as much so I ate the other two more. Can't go wrong if you're looking for a quick treat!

My boyfriend and I were trying to look for a good Place to get Dole Whipp but it seemed like all the machines in the area were broken or we would have to wait an indefinite amount of hours. Luckily, we were able to find this Lawson store at Hawaii, across the International mall and to be honest, I was quite surprised with the quality of the whip as well as the toppings for the price! No seating area tho but I don't expect that from a convenient store. :)

Mega Ali'i Soft Serve. 2 days in a row. They had other soft serve flavors, but this one is a MUST GET. $12.99

Solid spot for affordable, yummy shave ice! Love that they put pineapple soft serve in the in the middle and under the ice! Just wished their shave ice was fluffier and softer like snow, otherwise it's really tasty

I saw coupon in one of the travel books. We came here for the ice cream and I handed him the coupon and said I want to ice creams. He got the first one and told me what I owe him. And I said we want a second one also and he says oh well you can't use the coupon for it. I said that's fine but we still want the ice cream The ice cream was tasty. I also got a spam musubi that was tasty but you could tell it's been sitting there for quite some time

Wow so yummy!!Going into the store they have cold drinks and chips and other munchies for sale but - at the counter they have some friendly cashiers who eagerly wait to take your order.There are just a couple of choices of ice cream or icees.I highly recommend you getting the Dole whip.You can get the Dole whip in a cone or cup- I got mine in a cone but it was melting so fast she gave me a cup - no worries it was delicious!!Hard it explain but I will try-It had a wonderful pineapple flavor,Non dairy, it wasn't really cold (no brain freeze even though I tried to eat it so fast because it was so yummy) It was more like eating a salt water taffy.Cool and chewy but so much more flavor!Enjoy
