    Liquor and convenience items. It's a good thing since the Long's drugs by us is closed, permanently closed. Grabbed some bandaids for my poor feet that have been blistering with this hot heat and the walk along Ali street, along the water. Also grabbed some carbonated lime flavored water and some regular water too, we drink at least one bottle a day here.

    There's a lot of these ABC stores scattered throughout Kona, and they're so wonderfully clean and convenient, I wish we had them back home! Granted, they're probably be a lot lighter on tropical-themed souvenirs, but everything else would make them a welcome competitor to the run down Plain Pantry's and 7-Elevens back home. With its doors flung open to the warm, tropical air, and a view of the Pacific right out front, this particular location on Ali'i Drive was our favorite of them all. Although, each one we visited (this location more than the rest) is a true one-stop shop for drinks, snacks, liquor, over the counter meds, clothing, accessories, and enough tchotchkes to take home and lie to your friends that you spent a bunch of time coming up with gift ideas. I expected prices in Hawaii for simple sundries to be much more expensive than I encountered here, which was a pleasant surprise, although somehow we still spent about $30-$40 bucks here per visit, because we have no self-control! Great place for tourists and locals alike to grab what you need and get going right back to the beach, the hotel, or the airport to catch your flight home (boo!). When it comes to picking a truly convenient convenience store in Kona, your choice is as easy as ABC!

    These stores are the bomb. One stop shopping for almost everything you need for your island visit. Nice people and always willing to help you find what you want. Button up Hawaiian shirts are great quality and I have several from 4 years back. Hopefully this is an island owned store so we can keep it local.

    ABC as simple as I, 2, 3... The ABC Store is a staple of Hawaii convenience stores, much like a 7-Eleven mini mart, but with souvenir items including trinkets, clothes and gift novelties. It's always nice to shop, with convenient locations (often multiple stores located within a mile or less of each other too!) and the prices always seem reasonable Great for snacks too!

    Well stocked with basics and tourist souvenirs - I appreciated towards the back there are bakery goods by local companies! Check out the taro sweet bread

    Extra star for awesome, friendly service! We wanted to try this famous gas station fried chicken…read more They have various combos and it wasn't quite obvious what to order for the family. But the lady working there was so nice and explained everything! They even signed me up for the discount card. Mahalo for being so kind to this clueless mainlander! We got the 2 orders of the combo with 2 chicken thighs and 1 drumstick and 3 pieces of fried, batter dipped potato wedges. Pieces were large and meaty. It was a lot of food! Only $8.99 with the discount card for each box. The potatoes were tender and quite tasty. We really enjoyed them. Chicken itself was flavorful, although we found the crust too salty. It was a tiny bit dry. Not sure how long it had been sitting there. The crust was very crunchy. Everything was hot and well packaged. Overall, a great deal and worth a try if you're in the area! Location of this one is very convenient - just South of the airport and near the Costco.

    We ended up stopping at Minit Stop out of pure necessity because literally everything else on the…read moreisland was closed -- and honestly, we were not disappointed. My boyfriend really wanted the tonkatsu, but they had just run out, so we grabbed the fried chicken and the chili with rice and mac and ended up sharing everything. It totally hit the spot. Comfort food, super flavorful, and way better than we expected for a late-night convenience store stop. Not fancy, but when you're hungry and everything's closed, Minit Stop comes through.
