Want some live music and a chill place to eat and drink? The atmosphere was so Aloha, very relaxing. Our bartender Matt was so polite and really helped to bring the whole experience together. Glad I stopped by ? Will definitely be coming back!

Ben the bartender is wonderful! He made me the best espresso martini with an option to add any flavors I would like. And the little hidden tiki area is perfect to get away.

I stayed at the Equus and the Paniolo Bar was right downstairs! It was the best comfy adorable place to get a good standard breakfast. My boyfriend and I went there every morning and the staff was always so sweet and welcoming. During the last four days of our stay, we had this adorable man serve us breakfast. HE WAS SO SWEET! I absolutely loved him! The latte’s were amazing and the dishware was so lovely. All the breakfast drinks were doppio’s so expect strong lattes and macchiatos! It turns into a cute local bar at night. The seats by the pool are also incredible. So comfy, please swing by here when you have the chance!Vegetarian options: Bagels and avocado toast, oatmeal and pastries!Dietary restrictions: Have dairy substitutes available!Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible as there are stairs needed to come up

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.

Went last week Tuesday with a friend of mine, and our bartender Yulia was the best! Sweet lady with amazing service. We got to try one of her specials called "Moonkiss". Was so good! We hope to come back soon and see her again. Thank you Yulia!

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!

Sweet little spot, and I hope I don’t ruin it by another good review… but I have visited each cafe within about 400 yards of this spot and found that none of them have the Aloha spirit at all, however, from the moment you meet the barista at Paniolo the staff exude a friendliness that is missing in Waikiki. Ben was manning the bar in the morning, and he was charming each day.The morning Cofee is brewed with a good robusta style bean and the food is tasty, even including a home made breakfast muffin. I won’t visit again the bigger cafes in the nearby hotels, which have few redeeming qualities.
Went here to have a few drinks with my friend, Yulia the bartender has amazing service. She was friendly and interactive with her guest and made amazing cocktails.
Open-air, off-lobby hotel bar with a fun atmosphere. Bartender Matt is very personable and chill. Great music too!

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.

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.
