Troy’s is a fantastic dive bar, especially if you’re looking for a laid-back vibe. The staff are incredibly friendly, and they offer karaoke, which is always a fun time.

Vibe: From the outside, it’s pretty unassuming, but once inside, you’ll find a spacious venue with plenty of tables, darts, and TVs—a classic sports bar atmosphere.

Karaoke: While it’s not super organized, I actually like how it encourages people to tip the KJ (karaoke jockey). You head to the corner of the bar, pick a song from the book, fill out a slip with the song title and number, and include $1 per song. Just a tip: if you submit multiple slips at once, you’ll end up singing all your songs back-to-back!

You track your turn by watching for your song number on the screen. When it’s your turn, look for the person who just finished singing — you need to grab it from them. What’s great is that you can sing right from your chair, which makes it feel even more relaxed.

We each ordered 1-2 drinks each and an order of popcorn and spent about $46 — if you think things are expensive, that’s just Hawaii.
