Paniolo Lanai Bar & Cafe

Checked out this boutique hotel bar. It has a pretty good happy hour. Paniolo Lāna'i is in The Equus up the stairs. Has a basic cantina feel with a touch of class. There's mostly cocktails, but there's basic things for breakfast like toast. Bar that's mostly visited by the people staying in this hotel. It's one of those boutique hotels that has a bar inside. They have an entrance that allows anyone to come in and get something. Cocktail menus are limited but there's some ways to save big. It's about $10 for a cocktail at happy hour. Last time we got the Liliko'i Margarita. Had a sourness and sweetness to it. They have no good food options it seems even at breakfast when there's more of a menu. For sure there's a hipness factor. It's located in The Equus on Ala Moana. They have a pretty good atmosphere and it's like being in some nice cabana or something.

Small intimate venue witha friendly local crowd. espressos martini is excellent. Service is outstanding

Saw this coffee bar pop up randomly so I had to give it a try since they were dog friendly! I drove past this area to see where exactly it was in Waikiki and it didn't look too far from Ala Moana. I thought that their coffee art was so cute so I really wanted to come and give them a try. Parking is pretty much non existent here so we walked. Upon getting to the shop we inquired about the coffee art and it appears that the person who does it only works on certain days and the person who was currently there was brand new. We decided to stay since we already came all the way here and our other option was at the other end of Waikiki. I ordered the iced latte and my friend got an Americano. While mine was bearable. Hers was not. Lol. Her coffee was burnt and was hard to even finish. She only had a few sips and called it a day. Maybe I'll come back when the real barista is working, but I'm sure there are other places out there that has better coffee.

The bar service was impeccable and the Mai Tais cocktails were perfect!! The atmosphere was intimate and special. Very happy!!

Back for a second time As a couple of hours to kill before flight As I said in first review all still GreatlolMy New Favorite place in Waikiki

This is such a cute western style bar! Had cute lights surrounding the spot with a saddle too. Located upstairs and before you enter the Equus Hotel. Female bartender was really friendly and made great cocktails. Small, hidden little gem located in West Waikiki. You'd probably get discounts if you were staying at the hotel too. Looks to be a cafe during the day time. Would recommend if you're looking for a more calm bar with good drinks.

Smallest bat I've found near the beach. View of the smallest pool too! Limited selection but cold beer and legit Whiskey cocktails with the ice blocks.Always friendly service!

Bagel and lox was delicious. The latte was beautiful. My daughter enjoyed the hot chocolate and oatmeal. Yulia was wonderful.

Was looking for a local bar with live music and found this hidden gem! Anita was so welcoming and service was great. I ordered a Mai Tai and it was the best I've ever had. The fresh squeezed juice definitely makes a difference. There was live music and such a great vibe! I also went back the next morning for a Coconut latte and it was perfect. I will definitely be going back the next time I'm in Waikiki.

This is a cute little bar and I noticed them before I stayed at the Equus. I remember walking by with my husband and I said, that's a cute little bar. He wasn't interested in going. But after checking in, we were given a complimentary drink and it was good. Two beers, a rose, or a cocktail and I'm glad that I had that opportunity. The bartender was really nice and clearly loved his job. My husband and I sat down for a while to enjoy our drinks before going out to dinner. The cocktail is made to order and was quite good.The next morning we went down to have a coffee. My husband ordered a bagel with lox and really enjoyed it. Again, the bartender was cutting radishes for the avocado toast and again seemed to enjoy being there. It was raining and cold, but it was fun there during our small stay.So, if I ever come to the area again, I will definitely come there to enjoy a drink and talk to one of the nicest bartenders (both of them) ever.
