    Pineapple Dole whip ~$5-6
    Christine N.

    Nice alternative area for Dole whip soft serve in the Queens hotel first level. We stopped by for desserts after dinner at Deck upstairs. Tip: If you arrive during business hours and the lights are off and doors happen to be closed, stick around for a few minutes as the owner/staff working might be by themselves and stepped away to use the restroom.

    We were on our way to Honolulu zoo and was craving the dole whip. The worker who greeted us had a positive energy and told us there was only mix pineapple and mango whip available. It was fine because that's what we wanted to cool us down. It was really good and worth it!

    Regular size dole whip
    Di L.

    Pineapple dole whip! Yes, the same one at Dole plantation and Disneyland. It was delicious. If you are at the zoo, stop by there to get some. It's located in Queen Kapiolani, across the street from the zoo. The lady who worked there is really nice. She showed aloha to even us local people. It's a small store, but we ate it in the lobby area.

    I've been wanting to check this place out after seeing the pics on Instagram. The products themselves are very Instagrammable, but in reality, it's something totally different. I bought a couple of slushies for my sons - $4.75 for each slushie, and it tasted like syrup (since it's made with 100% syrup lol). I really wanted to try the Dole Whip or Hawaiian Frost soft serve, but I couldn't get myself to pay those prices. If you're looking for a refreshing local treat, I would go elsewhere.

    Original/Strawberry Dole Whip Float in POG slush
    Jon T.

    Whoa! Don't miss out on this little gem if you're visiting the Honolulu Zoo or just hanging out on Waikiki Beach. Slushies, Dole whip, and...Dole Whip Slushies?? I was honestly surprised how hard I had to look for Dole whip when our mainland friends were visiting, as Dole Plantation is BONKERS with the current tourist rush, and only a handful of places in Waikiki serve it (Lawson, Kokoro?). Right at the front of Waikiki, tucked into the renovated Queen Kapiolani Hotel, Aloha Whip has what you need. We wanted to try all the raved about things, so we did a Dole whip swirl (pineapple and strawberry) in a POG slush. Amazing combination and double amazing on a hot day. The only letdown was the strawberry whip - it tasted artificial and tart, nowhere as good as the original. I was hoping for a haupia or ube to swirl, but I guess we'll have to come back another day!

    Mango and pineapple whip
    Kit Yee Y.

    The Aloha whip was so good!!! First time here. First time to try their mango and pineapple whip. It was not too sweet. It was perfect for hot days in Hawaii. Pineapples and mangos are very popular here. Of course it might be artificial flavours, but it was so soft with ice (not icecream). People usually walked to the store. It's hard to find parking in Hawaii in general. The store was small, but there were lots of seats and tables within the building (hotel). This was like the whip that you could try at Dole Plantation but this one was so much closer to hotels in Waikiki. Walkable distance!

    Mango, Strawberry, Pineapple Whip Mix
    JL H.

    Fresh, cool, refreshing clean flavors of Pineapple, Strawberry and Mango Whip, the island's specialty. Dairy and Gluten free, you simply cannot go wrong. They have other offerings of icees: Pineapple or what they call Pauva (Passionfruit and Guava mixed). ALL are divine. You can also pick up a blow-up Dole Pineapple or Banana or coffees and juices. Any of these fruity treats will cool off some of the island heat.

    The dole whip was amazing ! Great customer service and they have good recommendations ! The best in town

    all the flavors mixed. Dole whip.
    Alex M.

    Hit this place up after hanging out at the beach. Really refreshing and reasonably priced (for being right across the street from the beach). Find it on the ground floor of Queen Kapiolani hotel tucked away in the corner. Like all dole whip, it's dairy free. I recommend mixing all their flavors together for the whole experience.

    We went to the Dole Plantation today and the lines were crazy, so I was on the hunt for Dole Whip. Aloha Whip came up on a list so I decided to give it a try. This is a little shop in the lobby of a hotel in the heart of downtown Honolulu. So that means parking is bad! The Dole Whip Slush we got made up for all of that. I got Blue Hawaiian slush with pineapple Dole whip. They have a ton of flavors so I'll have to go back to mix and match. Service was fast and friendly. This was definitely worth the trip.

    Strawberry pineapple

    This location is inside the Queen Kapiolani hotel lobby so it may be a little harder to find but since I was staying at the hotel, I knew I had to hIt up this cute little spot! I ordered a strawberry dole whip and even requested toppings, which they don't normally give, but the girls happily gave them to me! The small whip is very tiny so I suggest the regular size, and I'm in love with the flavor! Definitely very happy with this place. I also ended up buying a small gift from their counter as well. They offer little soaps and decorations at a reasonable price!

    Extremely tiny and overpriced dole whip cups
    Hiilei C.

    From the beginning, the cashier was very rude to us and only started to be nice when I was rung up for a tip. Do NOT expect to get what the photos show on Yelp or you will be disappointed. We paid $4.75 for a small Dixie cup size of Dole Whip and it was just super icy. We asked for an extra spoon and soon learned that you are charged for another spoon. Definitely would not go again.

    This kid's size is close to $5.

It was about 10 and not much to choose from this late in the eve. Looked on Yelp and found a five-star spot that closed at midnight. A unicorn perhaps, or just paid social media BSers hyping up basura? And it was within walking distance. Let's go find out. MOSA is like in a backstreet off of the main Kalakaua drag. It's like a little hut with some outdoor seating out front. Simple menu that offers eight different flavors that you order in a cup or a crepe. Wanted something not too messy and just portable enough to eat from while walking back, so I got the cup. Got two scoops of ube and Kona coffe sprinkled with crushed mac nuts. DELICIOUS. Loved the texture...very creamy, almost chewy. Lovely textures. Flavors were on point, too. It's on the pricier side for ice cream, though, but I think it's worth it for what you're getting. Great stuff!

I'll definitely have to come back to try that next time. // Single Scoop Cup (Kona Coffee) The single scoop comes in the cutest little flower pot with a tiny shovel spoon, which made it even more fun. The Kona coffee ice cream was incredibly smooth, rich, and creamy with a slightly stretchy texture that I really enjoyed. The roasted peanut sprinkles added a delicious crunch and subtle nutty flavor that complemented the ice cream perfectly. The service was also very friendly and quick! Overall, I really enjoyed it and would happily come back. While it didn't quite reach "must-have" status for me, it was still a delicious treat that's worth trying.

The bigger the malasadas size the more airy and fluffy and more bread layers that will be inside. 2. their malasadas always taste fresh and the same quality each time. 3. their malasadas don't feel oily or heavy at all Overall I would highly recommend this place for their Malasadas! I'm so happy to have found them. I can back multiple times on my trip. They also have other desserts too that I have yet to try. They have ice cream, cakes, and other desserts Also tip: if you are ordering a malasada also order a coffee or a matcha drink to go with it. The cinnamon sugar from the malasada just matches so perfectly with a drink this restaurant is also a nice place for walking! There's lot of stores and restaurants to walk around! I'm trying to remember but I think there was a book off that was not too far from here! If you either drive or maybe walk. Service: staff was super helpful and friendly while I was there. I was having an issue with my online order because my phone was being glitchy and they were so nice in helping :) Also wanted to note their branding is so cute!! They even sell merch items too
