Stopped thru for happy hour, good drink prices. Nice band playing, with mix of Hawaiian, reggae, soul music. Low key spot, but a good choice. (Looks like it gets much busier later at night.)

I reviewed a week or two ago at the start of the Vaca. We're At the end so I'll blast out another. Warhol meets pollock meets coffee meets Waikiki. Owner Jonathan, who I had pleasure to meet is passionate about Art, coffee, and Hawaii and it shows in all his spaces. The gallery is no different. In this eclectic art coffee space he combines island vibes, upbeat morning grooves and Hawaiian caffeine. Love the spot and the coffee. The service is great ! The ladies behind the counter do a great job with the coffee the crowd and all with aloha. Over the last two weeks I've been here a dozen times and every coffee is great and every coffee is accompanied by aloha, great service and all in a cool setting. The art. All for sale, and all eclectic and interesting. It might not be your style but it does bring a nice vibrancy to this space. It is unique and fun. This is a gem in Waikiki. Right at the base of the beach comber. Thanks Gallery! You made my Vaca better! Aloha!!

This place is definitely a vibe. The happy hour sign (12-7 daily) caught my eye. I love all the art work scattered throughout and the soothing music floating through the air. The servers created me with an "aloha" and a smile. Nice touch. The mai tai was a little sweet but nice. Can't really complain since it's $5.

Live music nightly. I've been on Sat, Sun, Mon and a Tuesday night. All of the bands/groups sound amazing. It just depends on their song selection. Bartenders are quick and attentive. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Good mix of locals and vacationers.

Art, coffee, and a short walk to the beach...what more could you ask for!?!? Located in the lower level of a hotel, this was the perfect spot for us to grab coffee on a sunny Waikiki morning! Street and garage parking are available nearby. Service was friendly during our stay! Definitely browse the many art forms around the shop while you wait for your coffee. Plenty of local artists and styles represented! Lots of seating available for those of you looking to take a break from the nearby shopping. We had warm and iced lattes that were both delish! Would recommend for your morning pick-me-up!

Bruh this place has superb vibes, DON'T miss if you love live music, low lighting cafes, great food during Happy Hour and good cocktails. Live music starts from 8pm onwards and it's a blast! We got in during the happy hour and ordered a Beer, Mai Tai and got Margherita pizza. Pizza tasted good though it was a Naan base! We even got Popcorn on the house as the night progressed with great music. Must visit place on the Waikiki Boulevard.

I love it here! I've been here in the mornings for coffee, and I knew I had to come back in the evening one night for a drink. Every time I've come in, the employees are so sweet and friendly. The interior of The Gallery is modern and beautiful artwork for sale is displayed everywhere! I wish I could afford some of the art work but I enjoy looking nonetheless. The coffee in the morning when I went was really good and service is quick. I went here for my birthday after craving an espresso martini, so I went to the bar and a nice young gentleman helped me. He sang me happy birthday and made me a beautiful espresso martini and brought it out to me! He was very sweet and the drink was amazing, might be one of the best espresso martinis I've had. The vibes are chill and I could easily hang out here at any point in the day. You must come here!

Eclectic, nostalgic, vintage vibe featuring cool artwork. Craved for a light, power breakfast of acai bowl. Biggest challenge was finding a place within walking distance in Waikīkī that makes acai bowls without banana and chocolate. Excellent customer service from gentleman that answered my questions, took my order including female server who brought breakfast to the table. Immensely grateful to the staff for offering and making 12 oz Tropics Bowl. Aesthetically appealing creation garnished with paper umbrella. Top quality and fresh ingredients of acai, granola, diced kiwi, diced pineapples, diced papayas, sliced strawberries, shaved coconut, sliced almonds, bee pollen, plus honey. Loved everything about combination of sweet, tart, acidic, nutty flavors, crunchiness from granola, and various textures. There's also a mini trash can on counter to return used stainless steel spoon. 15% kamaʻāina discount available. Option to dine in or to go. Would definitely return and upgrade to a 16 oz Tropics Bowl.

This space has been numerous businesses over the last few years, but the newest is certainly the most fun. With outdoor sidewalk seating, indoor tables, and high-tops, there are lots of comfortable places to take a break while walking around Waikiki. Part art gallery and store, part bar and restaurant, and also a music venue, there's a lot going on here. The art here is mostly pop art; lots of colors and popular culture with a Waikiki or Hawaii twist. It's fun to look at; prices are what you would expect. We mostly stopped in as it was a busy spot. They have a happy hour from 12-7 daily, $3 beers (as of this writing it was Kona Big Wave). They also have a big food menu, which are printed right on the tables. Simply line up on the right to order, food orders are given a number, drinks are poured/made right away. The staff here was friendly and extremely fast, taking care of customers. It's clean and colorful and is family friendly. If you're in Waikiki and looking for something different, it's worth stopping in!
