More than likely featured on the film "Next Goal Wins" I think? The Salmon Rice Bowl was great too! And the coffee shop next door makes some sweet eats! Regardless if this was the film location, a perfect, picturesque local-style stop! 🤙

“The Convenient Store” from Next Goal Wins. I only wish they sold the tee shirt! What’s best is that this truly is a convenient store in a fantastic location. Do you need it? They probably have it. If they don’t have it? You probably don’t need it! Don’t miss the butter mochi at the register.

We got the Iced Mint Chocolate Mocha, and the Mango tea with lilikoi boba, both were delicious! Heads up, the teas are blended and have some sort of dairy base, if you have an allergy I'd recommend asking for the ingredients. The staff were super friendly and helpful, everything was very clean and well managed in the Coffee portion, would definitely recommend coming down for some delicious beverages.

Nice local stop, ready to eat food, freezer items, fishing items, cold beverages, food truck outside, historical pictures and facts were enjoyable and entertaining.

You need a plantation iced tea from this place with pineapple and mint. It’s like bubble tea without the boba. Perfect sweetness level. Then go get shrimp from the shrimp shack in the parking lot.

Thank god they have rods here. Not a lot of option, but at least they have a few. It's half liquor, half fishing supply store. It was pretty cool. Pick up a 9ft okuma surf rod, rigs, n weights.

The oldest store in the area, this little convenience store is a great place to stop to grab a quick bite and something to drink.

Great prices and good food. We stopped here to stock up the cooler. Stopped for ice but left with alot more. Great shop, never change. Was headed to a gas station for ice but very glad we stopped here instead. Friendly service too.

All kinds of funness lie inside - from the local snacks to the history of the business and Hawaii. If you're up exploring on the Windward side, it's definitely worthy of your time to stop in. Lots of parking, lots of cool stuff inside. Check it out. And the food is great!

Fantastic little market with fresh made items and a convenience store. Favorite things here are the poke and plantation iced tea. A must stop near the Shrimp Shack food truck.

Been shopping here since I was 4 years old; I'm 72. Miss the huge jars of Semoi and dim sum. Mr. Godfrey Ching's father was the kindest man. Also, the history of many Chinese immigrants and their families began at Punaluu's rice plantation.
