Kuakini Snack Shop

Friendliest employees you will ever meet. They make your bad day a lot better, and everything here is good. Especially the soups, sandwiches, and musubis. Don’t forget to bring cash though. They do not accept debit or credit cards. Also no bills over $ 50.

Don’t know why I’ve never checked in here before! This is a cute little convenience store that is located on the first floor (street level) of the Medical Plaza building — not to be confused with the hospital nor the Physicians Tower.
The store is small, bright and clean. When you enter, someone always greets you with a smile and a warm «good morning» or «hello». The store is staffed by Kuakini’s wonderful volunteers. They are not «professional» store-​keepers, but they sure do know how to keep the place nice!
Everything here is self-​serve. There’s pastries, spam musubis, sandwiches, instant ramen bowls, cereals, candies, chips, teas, coffee, milk, juices, sodas… and…HOT SOUPS!!! The soups are delicious! Everyday, there are two choices of hot soups. Today’s choices happen to be corn chowder and chicken wild rice. I’ve had both, and I like both soups!
Prices are inexpensive. Customer service is friendly! Great service provided to patients and/​or visitors who are looking for a quick little comfort nomnom while at the doc’s!
