Nice little shop. Grab some ice cream and walk over to the swinging bridge. Find every spice you could possibly dream of. The lady inside was very helpful. Stop by and get something yummy. The Swinging Bridge sign is right at the entry to the parking area for the Aloha Spice Company read more

Cute little shop with a variety of different locally blended spices. The price point is around $15 for 2 oz. read more

Aloha Spice Company - Grocery Near Me - Hanapepe, Hawaii

Aloha spice company is located in Hanapepe, and is a small store that specializes in local spices. I was surprised since a lot of things that were sold in the store were actually not spices, but other locally produce items, including perfumes, clothes, candies, and soaps. It's still a nice place to shop for souvenirs and locally produced items. read more

A cute little boutique shop in Hanapepe offering spice blends (of course), salts, soaps, and better-curated souvenirs than most tourist shops. There's also a little cafe in the store, offering delicious cream-filled doughnuts, smoothies and tea. Pro tip: one of the only places on the island to score a Mexican cane-sugar Coke. If you know, you know. Polite, gentle service. Fun stop. read more

We CAME for the Spices.... But we STAYED for Shaka Pops. And then we stayed just a tad bit longer for not 1 bag, but TWO bags of their Jerky Crisps Teriyaki flavored beef jerky. We stayed so long, and enjoyed the jerky so much that we were like... oh hey look, they sell spices here! Haha, just kidding. Maybe. Probably. Not really. ------------------------- Smack dab in the middle of Hanapēpē... Aloha Spice Company is a must stop when coming to this cute town; the birthplace of Disney's Lilo & Stitch. And if you're a Lilo & Stitch fan... Make sure to check out the mural dedicated to these two characters (pun intended) as well as the store that has tons of L&S merch. As for those who need a little spice in their life, or just want to do a little shopping, the Aloha Spice Co. has some really cool things just for you! Whether you are in search of... Cool hats with fun designs, Hawaiian maps, Hawaiian pancake mix, Hawaiian coffee beans, Hawaiian hot sauce, Hawaiian mustard, jelly, or vinaigrettes, Hawaiian inspired spices, accessories for your four-legged friends, magnets, stickers, Knick Knacks, or the best crispy beef jerky ever.... Aloha Spice Company is your place! And the best part... Besides the Shaka Pops.... Once you finish shopping here for all the goodies listed above, you are directly at the start of Hanapēpē's BIGGEST attraction... The Hanapēpē swinging bridge where you can walk across the Hanapēpē river, If. You. Dare. Yes, located directly behind Aloha Spice Co., a pedestrian suspension bridge is calling your name to cross... C'mon it's not THAT SCARY. O.k. before we finish things up, let's talk about the Jerky and of course the Shaka Pops. If you're a Jerky connoisseur like me, you gotta try this stuff. It's beef jerky, but crispy like a chip. And if you're JUST LIKE ME, once you start, you won't stop until the bag is gone (hence why I went back in and got the 2nd bag as mentioned above.). And finally... Shaka Pops!!! What is a Shaka Pop you ask?? A 100% Natural, Gluten-free, Kauai Made, fruit or cream based delicious popsicle! And believe me.... they were DELICIOUS!!! (See pic below of the flavors available) So grab your Shaka Pop, load up on crispy jerky, pick up some spices for your home and then go out back and... run across the Hanapēpē bridge as fast as you possibly can. On second thought... Just walk, yeah, just walk across it. =) read more

I was so excited to finally find some toffee I got in Maui. It was very hard to find & just when I had given up this place had it! It made my day. They have lots of cute local, handmade gifts at reasonable prices. It's also near the swing bridge. read more

When you are in the historic Town of Hanapepe you might want to take a peek on this souvenir store where you can find lots of spices made locally, art crafts & paintings. They also have a variety of food items from small treats to cold drinks. It is located right when you go to the famous Hanapepe hanging bridge, you can't missed it. Parking is challenging a bit but the good thing is this store has their own comfort room. Also, this store is way too expensive but if you want to support a small women-owned local business feel free to splurge or simply spread the word. I bought some sea salt and chocolates here and it was also good to explore this store. It's like roaming inside a mini museum. T'was fun! Mahalo for reading & happy juandering fellow yeeps! read more

Good place to browse for souvenirs, though most things are pretty pricey. We enjoyed some local popsicles on the porch before heading to the suspension bridge nearby. Love the shaded parking space in the front. read more

The lemonade (I got the lavender one) was AMAZING, so refreshing, perfectly sweetened but EXPENSIVE! This tiny glass cost me $8, but I was really hot and love supporting a small women-owned business. They also sell a variety of other food items, in addition to cool local things. The woman working here was lovely, so nice and friendly. It's a cool store to stop by if you're visiting the Hanapepe Swinging Bridge. read more

Really good variety of gifts. We picked up a bunch of stuff. Best giftshop we could find in the area with things my wife and I like.

This store was so unique and had great gifts and souvenirs featuring local artists which is different than the usual souvenir shops. The cool air conditioning was a bonus and kept us shopping longer. They also sell delicious fruit popsicles. read more

Aloha Spice Company is a cute store to stop by at if you're in Hanapepe, although I wouldn't necessarily recommend going out of your way to visit. It's located next to Hanapepe Swinging Bridge, which is a popular tourist spot in the area. The store had a bunch of cute souvenir items, including various products from vendors around the island. The shop itself had a warm, inviting vibe and was perfect for perusing. The employees were helpful and easygoing. All the products here looked absolutely delicious, but it didn't seem like there were many ready-to-eat items. I did see that the store was selling gourmet ice pops, which looked absolutely delicious, but I didn't get the chance to try them. If I'm ever back in Hanapepe, I'll have to try them! read more

What a delightful shop to find all sorts of treasures, not just spices! Yummy bakery items, beautiful jewelry, and lots of other gift items made locally. Check this out on your way to go across the swinging bridge or on your way back, but don't miss it! read more

Imagine a spice shop that doesn't do samples. This is that place. When asked about tasting some of their spices I was told "we don't do that since Covid." My response, "oh that's still a thing?" "Yah, well some people are still wearing masks. Besides, we went through so many rubber gloves with samples we don't need to be filling our landfill with them." And on that note it was time to go. Here is a news alert to this lady and anyone else still living in the covid era. Move on! Or close your shop up for good. As far as rubber gloves go, hows this for a novel idea. In lieu of gloves, try washing your hands. read more

Great little gift shop in Hanapepe right by the swinging bridge. They have a lot more than spices and we got some quality souvenirs at reasonable prices. Their bathroom is also pristine! The friendly owner of the shop was a joy to talk to. Stop by! read more

Cute store, lots more than just spices. However, the spices themselves are nearly twice the price you pay for the exact same size bag and brand at Food Land. read more

Stopped in while walking around Hanapepe one day. Nice store, with more trinkets and stuff, than spices. Staff seemed nice enough when selling us the few items we bought. My overall impression is the prices seem a bit high. As my wife says "they're really proud of their stuff". read more

So fun to shop here! Quaint town and amazing offerings! Go check it out!! Buy some spices and rubs

Selection was okay. Some items were overpriced. I do agree with some reviews that the older white lady is not really friendly other than to the German tourists who were there. She said she was German herself. The ice cream popsicles were yummy though and the place has AC. You're just not allowed to use their bathroom. read more

A colorful boutique, both literally and figuratively. They offer unique spice blends, snacks, sweets, and other souvenirs/gifts that are locally made and/or sourced. The 'Alaea (Red Clay) Sea Salt is great for poke. It also adds a unique flavor when used in other dishes. Kauai is known for the _many_ roosters encountered throughout the island. That being said, check out the "Rooster Poop"--far from what it sounds, and an amusing gift for friends/loved ones. read more

This was one of my favorite stops when we were walking through different stores in Kauai. They have a wide variety of herbs and spices, some chocolates, honey, snacks, etc. It's more of a gift shop than a grocery or general store, and the prices reflect that. They stock quite a few items for your kitchen as well, including utensils and some ceramic tiles with various Hawaiian sayings and designs on them. My wife was eyeing a couple of them and opted not to grab them because they didn't have anything to wrap them in. We ended up sampling a few of the spices that they had out. They apparently had a chocolate tasting as well but the person who was supposed to be covering it wasn't there. No big loss. read more

Gorgeous location, just on the front?back? side of the famed "Swinging Bridge." The staff there were very nice and inviting, but the selection was slightly disappointing. There are sporadic tasting bowls for salts, sugars, crackers, etc, but after three tastings in a row resulting in a stale, overly clumpy texture and taste, I stopped wanting to know more... The spices, foods, and gifts are all beautifully wrapped and packaged, and they also offer shipping directly to wherever home is for you, so you don't have to sacrifice precious luggage room with gifts. I'd return, if I were back in Hawaii, but I'd hope they freshen up their sample offerings... read more

I can't believe I almost skipped out on this gem in Hanapepe! I was in the Banana Patch Studio when I noticed a shelf of Aloha Spice Company spices and rubs and thought it would be a great present for my brother-in-law as he is a BBQ aficionado and remembered that we had parked next to the shop. As soon as you walk into the store, you are immediately greeted by an intoxicatingly delicious rush of spices. When we walked in, we were the only ones in the shop and so we were able to pick the owner's brain about which spices to buy. The shop itself is so beautifully decorated and all of the spices are available to taste and smell before purchasing. The spices are a bit pricey but I'm willing to pay a bit more for quality products. In addition to the spices, there is also a large selection of sauces, jams, honey, and teas. Gorgeous store, friendly and helpful owner, salivating inducing aromas, and top shelf spices. If you are in Hanapepe, I would highly recommend stopping in and browsing the store. read more

Love this cute little shop. All kinds of goodies from A to Z and such a huge variety to fit all kinds. I love that you are able to try so many of the flavors of their otufucts. They also have a website to order from, love that. My only downside I found was that they don't sell everything in their store online so I had to limit what I purchased because the items they don't sell online to ship were some sauces and spices and they were in glass jars and those are heavy. The items I went ahead and purchased in store added 9lbs but I would have bought more if it didn't mean I had to take the chance of breaking or my luggage being overweight. read more

One of the better gift shops on the island. Hawaiian origin chocolates in beautiful packaging, spices, and other items. Nice to see a water cooler inside, too. We got two Ono Pops (popsicles) and glad we tried them, all made from simple Hawaii sourced ingredients. They weren't cheap at $4-$4.50 each but hey it's vacation and perfect for kids in hot weather. Great location next to the Hanapepe swinging bridge, which we went on before going into the shop. read more

Lovely easy drive to Hanapepe from Kapaa. Nearby is the Swinging bridge and Taro Ko Chip "factory'. A good place to get stuff from and bring home some Aloha. They have a variety of spice mixes, both salt (different mixes) and sweet types (flavored sugars), and numerous jellies, Hawaiiana ( shell and coconut or other wood products). Do try the salt and sugar mixes, and ask to sample what may not be out on display. A nice little treat to take home. read more

fabulous just did pork chops with Pele's Smokey coffee rub just rubbed the chops, let stand for an hour and boom no more no less

Aloha from St. Louis MO. Friends included some of your products in a care package exchange. I cant speak of the in-store experience due to you being 4,000miles away, but your spice rubs are phenomenal. and rival some of the best in the midwest. I'm struggling with deciding between sharing or keeping it stashed away for myself. Keep up the good work! I can' wait to try some of your other products. read more

When stopping at various souvenier shops in Kauai, I saw spices being sold from the Aloha Spice Company. I could have purchased from there, but wanted to check out the flagship store. On a rainy day, we found Aloha Spice and made our way in. The shop sells chocolates, teas, spices, salts and gifts. There are a lot of options and you can taste the salts, rubs and sugars. I found a few gifts for family and ourselves to take home (they don't take up any space!) Definitely a cool place to check out. read more

First, this is not a grocery. This is a gift shop. Fun little place to stop in Kauai, especially if you are close staying in Koloa town or, Poipu. Also convenient if you are on you way to Waimea Canyon. Its pretty cool, spices, coffee, local crisps and macadamia nuts.. They also have little wooden gifts and candles etc. But the best reason to come here is the frozen bananas or Popsicle. The everything banana with nuts, coconut shavings and chocolate is incredible. Grab one and walk behind the store to the swinging bridge and enjoy the view.. just be careful not to drop the tasty banana in the water below. Overall good experience. The gifts were ok, the bananas were great. Solid stop in the cute little town of Hanapepe. read more

Excellent, niche spice store - in a wonderful town- for curious tourists looking for affordable souvenirs.

This shop has all kinds of fun, funny & cool snacks, kitchen essentials and house decor. Definitely a stop-by when in the area! They carry local Kauai honey and Big Island honey We also saw frozen bananas & juice Popsicles Spices galore from different sugars to salts to grill-rubs Chicken-themed items everywhere so you can decorate your home to remind you of all the feral chickens from the island :-) Grabbed a funny stuffed chicken and some seriously delish Mac/coconut/honey butter to slather on the bread we'd just purchased from Midnight Bear.....lots more caught our eyes but there's only so much luggage space, alas See y'all next time! read more

We stop here every time we're in Kaua'i. It's great for gifts. They have handmade local soaps, teas, coffees. Anything you could want for yourself or a friend. Always friendly. This time of year very busy as people are in town for the holiday. Check out the swinging bridge behind the spice shop. Nice thing is you can try all the spice blends before you buy them! So picked some up for friends back home. Ambiance is cozy, variety is mighty. They have spice grinders which means the flavor of the spices will be released when you use them. Again, great gifts! read more

I was out shopping with friend visiting her And as I opened the door the lady behind Counter kind of longer grey hair lady just starred at us. Did not break a smile or say Hello. Then turned around and went back to what she was doing. No one at counter and to s of people in shop. I work at a dog store high end one and I always say Hello to my customers. The other thing that got me as I don't look like a tourist and I am of darker skin - Native American. My son lives on Oahu and they think of him as a local boy because he has my eyes. I have run into snobbish sales clerks where I live and don't wait on me. I don't need this on the Island if Kauai. read more
