Favorite place to get fruit bowls in the North Shore!
Hale'iwa Bowls is a cute little shack that serves fruit bowls, smoothies, coffee, and other delicious drinks. Sometimes driving through Hale'iwa can be daunting due to the traffic, but it's always worth a trip for these mouthwatering bowls. Parking is sometimes difficult- there are some spaces behind it but otherwise you can park at the beach park across the bridge and walk.
Like many similar places, Hale'iwa bowls serves açaí bowls which are fantastic. However, my favorite bowls of theirs actually are some of their other bowls! The Paniolo is a filling, sweet peanut butter bowl that can never go wrong after a tiring day at the beach. The Blue Majik and Green bowls are also so fresh and delicious! I always add extra raspberries to my orders. There is a great selection of add-ons for your bowl or smoothie.
My only complaint is that sometimes the employees can be rude. Otherwise, this would be a 5 star place to visit. For example, one day when I went I could overhear them loudly discussing and complaining about the tips people had just left (loud enough for all including the customers who had just tipped to hear). This customer HAD tipped. Rather than complaining about customers not tipping more (for a service that doesn't customarily expect tips) talk to your boss about...
Read moreHale'iwa Bowls is a must-visit spot on Oahu's North Shore! I recently tried their small Hapa Bowl, and let me tell you, it was an absolute game-changer. Without a doubt, it's the best açai bowl I've ever had in my life. The flavours and quality were simply mind-blowing.
I opted for the coconut bowl, which added an extra touch to the experience. However, I was surprised to find out there was an additional $7 charge for it, which was a bit unexpected. Despite the extra cost, the overall taste and presentation made it worth it.
This place tends to get quite busy, attracting both locals and tourists eager to capture their experience or snap the perfect shot for social media. As a result, parking in the back area can be a bit limited, but there are plenty of spots in the surrounding area as a backup option.
Despite the crowds and limited seating, the bustling atmosphere adds to the charm of this place. The vibrant energy and delicious bowls make it a North Shore gem that's not to be missed during a visit to Oahu.
I'm already eagerly looking forward to returning to Hawaii and enjoying another delightful bowl from Hale'iwa Bowls. It was definitely a highlight of my North...
Read moreI love to come to Haleiwa Bowls on a week day for a mid-morning/early-afternoon treat. Their acai bowls are filling and tastes great! There's an assortment of bowls and topping options to choose from, along with juices, smoothies, etc. My favorite is the Paniolo Bowl, and my S.O. likes the Hapa Bowl. They also had natural peanut butter, which my pup appreciated too! I like that they are a plastic-free company and promote environmentally friendly products. Their bowls are on the pricier side -- about $13 for a small and $16 for a large -- but they load up the toppings and a Large is big enough for 2 of us to share if we can decide on the same one lol. Around the times and days I like to go it's not too busy, although I've never seen this place completely empty. There's a parking lot in the back, but be careful of pot holes while driving in. They also have a nice sitting area where you can enjoy your acail bowl, or you can take it to the beach park across the street and...
