I discovered Honolulu Cookie Company purely by accident. I was visiting from Kauai for work and was asked by my partner to bring back fruity shortbread cookies. He mentioned something about cookie corner in Ala Moana. So I walked into the mall and saw cookies kinda in the corner... and sure enough they had fruity shortbreads. Bought them. Flew home. Got the wrong cookies! But the silver lining is that the cookies I bought by mistake were amazing. And my partner loved them so much that they became the go-to whenever I went to Oahu. The cookies themselves are beautiful: shaped like pineapples...some with fruit jelly...some pastel colored...some dipped in chocolate. And the presentation is also beautiful...these are clearly a great souvenir gift from Hawaii. The are plenty of locations and they all sell pretty much the same stuff. The cookies aren't cheap but they are worth it.
Service is great, the cookies are always good. They offer more assortments than what you can get at Costco.
I love their milk chocolate, cookie, and new flavor of matcha. They have plenty of staff making service very quick so you can grab your cookies and be on your way. This is a kiosk so there isn't anywhere to sit but the location in the mall is convenient to get in and out of, near the busy food court.
Shopping at Ala Moana Center, Honolulu, Hawaii... Located at the Makai Food Court on the ground level, Honolulu Cookie Company has a kiosk! It's very convenient and popular... especially now, since the Holiday 2024 merchandise has arrived! There are several sizes and designs that are new! There's even a shirt! I got two Holiday tins for gifts and I'll probably be back for more because they have a Loyalty Program! Happy Holidays! Remember that there's a build your own option where you can select your own box and fill it with Cookie flavors of your choice! Also... get your samples to compare flavors!
Great gifts for the holidays or souvenirs to share with friends back home! They got many gift boxes to choose from. Or you can get a box and fill with any cookies you want. You can even sample them first before deciding which one to buy. Very reasonably priced. Staff were friendly. And just give your phone number to join their loyalty program!
Yelp Review 2024 #18: This Honolulu Cookie Company is located in Ala Moana. They've gotten so popular that even my home city of Las Vegas has one. So, why would I come here if I can get it in Vegas? Because first, these cookies make good gifts. Second, I'm already at Ala Moana Mall. Third, I don't normally go to the Vegas location. Fourth, I'm a creature of habit - friends from Hawaii bring me Honolulu Cookie Company and I do the same. Fifth, they can survive a 9+ hour flight to the mainland. Sixth, because I do what I want! HCC in Ala Moana is easy to find. This is a kiosk inside a mall but they have all the flavors people should want and need. You can get a variety of flavors in boxes of however many you want...or if you just want a cookie or two for yourself. What's so special about these cookies? They're shortbread cookies which means it has a lot of butter which means they're yummy. Sorry, vegans! They come in an assortment of flavors unique to Hawaii like guava, mango, macadamia, pineapple, coconut, and Kona coffee. I do wish they'd add matcha since Hawaii has a lot of Japanese influence in their food and culture. How it works: grab a box of any size you want to fill, grab whatever flavors you want, the aunties that work here will gladly help you out especially if you have to get multiple boxes, and you pay. I think the best part of HCC is the service. They're always nice, helpful and friendly. My personal favorites are the mango macadamia, dark chocolate Kona coffee, pineapple macadamia, and chocolate dipped macadamia cookies. I would buy all their flavors but I don't eat all of them. They're crunchy and as you munch on them, they break into tiny morsels that dissolve in your mouth.
It's Pumpkin season! There's something to say about Honolulu Cookie Company...yum! They always keep things fresh and new literally as I've seen various flavors and the current one is quite special "Taro" and this local loving root vegetable is a treasure and have enjoyed it in so many form you know I'm super excited for this line. Not to be outdone with Taro it's Pumpkin Season and like they've done in the past...it's back! So for a limited time grab your cookies...Pumpkin and White Chocolate Pumpkin in bag of mini bites or in a Halloween Treat Box and what a super cute decorated box!!! Just when I think I got Halloween figured out these cookies maybe something I'd hand out to my besties and I'm starting to crumble to that idea lol! Check out this super location in Ala Moana Center Makai Market, they have so much options to choose from it's a matter of preference...and yes they do have some samples for you to try. Thank you!
We'll decided to get a small gift (Omiyage) for my customers . Nice pineapple tin w/4 cookies inside . Price is expensive $6.95 paying for the tin can I guess. Very busy like always and of course only one cashier ringing up customer. I went the the Ala Moana food court location to make my purchase. Their cookies are ok it's just fancy with the little fruit in the middle of a pineapple shape cookie. They have surf board shape tins available as well so that's kind of fun. Support local be safe
This shop is in the Ala Moana food court. The cookies are ok, but with other competing cookie places I can't decide if it's the location that brings the feeling down or something else. It's a standalone kiosk but it feels very noisy and chaotic because the doors open on both sides. I stepped up to browse and immediately I was asked if I needed help. It didn't feel like a friendly hi, it felt like when you are a teenager and the clerk thinks you are going to shoplift. I looked at some of the new holiday cookies and sought out me faves the guava shortbread for example, and then wanted to ask about pricing, and it was hard to get one of the 3 women standing around attention. One was enthusiastically showing everything to 3 Japanese tourists, the other was directing people to the cashier and the 3rd was very good at avoiding eye contact. I took my choices and then walked toward what looked like a cashier line. Then the 3rd clerk woke up and rushed over pointing with open hands telling me to go to the other side of the kiosk to pay. I was confused because clearly the man standing in front of me was paying with a credit card. I said, it's ok, I can wait till he is done. She said, No, you have to pay on the other side.and pointed again with her hands. I stood there, she stood there with her hands pointing. So I reluctantly followed her hands to the other side, to where there were 4 others standing in line. I stood there and the next woman stepped up to pay and I saw the other man leave with his purchases. The next person was not taken to his cashier. We stood there waiting on this one person. The 3rd customer stepped up and paid while the 4th waved over her other 3 friends who had been with the other clerk. I asked the clerk with the hands, why couldn't we pay at the other register? She looked at me like I was dumb and said, you are standing in this line. Since there were now 4 more new customers in front of me, because of the 3 who jumped in, I walked back to the other side while hands lady's back was turned. Nervously I stepped up with my cookies and put them on the counter. Without a word, the woman rang up my purchases and I left. I give it 3 stars because I don't want to penalize the cookies or packaging. But 3 means I will probably go to Big Island or somewhere place like Cookie Corner Does anyone know if they work on commission? It seemed to be the wrong mix of snobbery and inefficiency in their concept. If they want classy maybe they are in the wrong location.
I haven't purchased anything from here in a long time, but was in the area and saw that the kiosk was open again, so we decided to just get a small box of 5 cookies. There were quite a bit of workers but none of them offered to help (not that I wanted help lol but there were two tourists that weren't being helped either). Sad that they don't have any free samples at the moment but hopefully they'll bring that back soon!
Always a delicious treat and a perfect gift. I've loved getting these on my flights to Hawaii so of course I'm picking some up to bring back as gifts too
@fortunefoodfinds: "Hope you're having a SWEET Sunday! The other week I picked up these cute Honolulu Cookie Company x ALOHA DE MELE Aloha Suitcase Tins. You could choose from either a prefilled tin or build-your-own, which I did both. The classics mixed with the limited-edition flavors are such a tropical treat. These cookies n' tins are great as gifts or if you're simply wanting something sweet!" SERVICE: friendly n' fully staffed INTERIOR: n/a EXTERIOR: stand located in the Makai Market Food Court WAIT TIME: was helped out immediately PARKING: free garage OVERALL COMMENTS: came for a gift n' left with a beautiful cookie tin. The aloha suitcase tin is a great keepsake. I got one that was prefilled for the gift while I built one for my family. Loved the limited edition flavors n' had to get some of the classics. Beautifully packaged n' shortbread cookies are always a treat. There are also select flavors available to sample. Convenient location that in addition to the cookies, sell merch. A frequent customer! read more
Share Aloha :) Share Cookies I enjoy giving these pineapple shaped shortbread cookies as much as receiving them. There is a sample area where you can try what they offer. They also offer seasonal cookies. My favorite seasonal cookies are the pumpkin flavor, jasmine matcha and passion, orange and guava (POG). My go to are the chocolate dipped cookies and chocolate chip. Location: It's a kiosk located in the Ala Moana Shopping center. On the first floor of the Makai Food Court near Coffee Bean. Service: Aloha spirit :) There were staff on the outside of the kiosk welcoming customers and encouraging them to try samples. A young woman was patient in answering my questions. She encouraged me to try samples and try out the summer flavor which is POG. The cashier smiled and took the time to small talk with me. I shared that I am born and raised on Oahu and moved to the mainland. He shared he moved all over the east coast and returned back to the islands. Although it's a kiosk it's stock full of goodies and merchandise. There is seating near the kiosk. Discount: *10 percent military must show ID I love these cookies so much I subscribe to the email for deals. I usually put these in the goodie bags that I give to my children's teachers and my coworkers. This is my go to omiyage when I go back to the mainland. One way I share aloha is through giving these cookies. read more
Everyone was very nice and helpful! As soon as we e walked up to the stand, we were being helped. They had a lot of goodies to choose from. Great souvenir for family and friends. Note: this place is within the food court. read more

Did your Popo teach you that you shouldn't visit someone empty handed? I remember this growing up and it carries with me today. So when you're in need of a little gift, these decorated boxes come in REAL handy. If you're comfortable with it, the kiosk offers samples to make sure you're getting the right flavor you want. It's not just for tourists, they take care of the locals too! And don't forget to get the loyalty card stamped....I got a free box of five flavors! Mahalo Honolulu Cookie Company. read more

Located inside Ala Moana Center. We love the Honolulu Cookie Company. These cookies are on the pricier side, but for good reason. They are delicious! Employees are super friendly and helpful. The cashier was just the sweetest and we had a loverly conversation with her. Our cookies were neatly wrapped. If you buy a certain amount of items, you can get free goodies as well. I love that they offer free samples of all their cookies. My faves are the Kona Coffee and Dark Chocolate Dipped ones. The cookies are buttery, slightly sweet, flavorful, and have a bite to them. They sell plenty of boxed cookies that come in all sizes. Perfect for gift giving. They also sell individual cookies as well, in case you don't want to buy boxes of cookies. I appreciate that their boxed cookies are all individually wrapped, which is perfect if you want to share with loved ones. I highly recommend trying these cookies out. read more

Best Cookies Ever! I love the samples that you can try in the store! I had so many that I felt bad. Tip: Buy them at the airport, I think its slightly cheaper, less choices but its cheaper and they all come in boxes that is easier to gift:) Follow me on Instagram @willeatfood read more

Great gift idea for the holidays! What a smart location- in the Ala Moana food court! Who knew a small little kiosk in the food court could hold so much inventory! There are samples you can help yourself to try out the different cookie flavors. I still can't get over that if you buy each individually wrapped cookie - starts at $1 for 1!!! If you buy more, you save, but still wow! How steep is the price! At retail flagship stores you can get a loyalty stamp card for free cookies. Tip: At high end department stores, you can buy some of the box sets offered here- but they don't carry the annual holiday ornament box. It's a few dollars more expensive but if the department store is offering a sale and then extra % off, you can save more $$$ buying at the department store. read more

I purchased a couple bags of the minis double chocolate macadamia cookies from Costco Hawaii Kai, I expected the minis to look like what's advertised on the bag and be the same density of what you find at the retail stores. The cookies look like rejects no pineapple shape and are more flaky. So disappointing. read more

Aloha Annie,…
This is my go to place for people who I have no idea what to get for gifts. Why? Because their cookies are well made, pretty, and tasty. I love the fact that every cookies are individually wrapped so that you don't have indulge the whole box and prevent from becoming soggy. Location is inside the food court. It is a kiosk style and not a store. You'll see few staff near by to greet you and answer any questions you have. Don't be afraid of them they're not pushy but very helpful. Right now, their special cookies are peppermint shortbread during christmas time. You can get them with or without chocolate. I was able to get pumpkin shortbread as a bonus gift with my purchase. Those were also yummy. But I love peppermint shortbread this time of the year. read more

I really wanted to get Honolulu cookie company cookies to bring back home. But, I had to try them first. They had so many flavors to choose from. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, they don't give out cookie samples. But, we could purchase them as individually wrapped cookies. We tried 5 different cookie flavors. Boy, were these little cookies expensive at ~$1.30 per cookie. My 5 cookie box box with tax came out to a little over $6. We got guava, mango, pineapple, chocolate filled, and I forget the last one. All cookies were good, but not spectacular to bring back home. However, my favorite cookie in the box was the pineapple cookie. It had a strong enough pineapple flavor in the cookie and the chewy filling. But, I think our Chinese pineapple cakes had more fragrant pineapple flavor in them. I'm glad my family and I got to try them, though. It's worth trying at least once to see what all the hype was about. read more

Aloha Gin!…
My mom is Hong Kong bound again. She said that my cousins asked for Hawaii cookies and asked me to help her pick some up. We stopped by the Honolulu Cookie Company kiosk at the Ala Moana Food Court. They were quite busy with a lot of tourists. We were looking around for 10 seconds before this sales girl offers us some samples. Nice! I haven't been here in a while and they seem to have more flavors now. I remember liking the guava, but now they have lilikoi, pineapple, and coconut. Some of the cookies are dipped in chocolate and others aren't. It's what you prefer. My cousins don't care for chocolate, so we didn't get any chocolate dipped. They have a variety of boxes that hold different cookie counts. Some sets are already boxed. Others, you can fill yourself with whatever cookie you want. Don't forget to ask for a stamp card. You get a stamp for every $5 spent. Once you fill up the card, you can redeem it for a free box of cookies. read more

Great cookies. I like these butter chocolate dipped pineapple shaped cookies and in pandemic times I appreciate how this store offers individually wrapped cookies and the ability to make my own box of the ones I like best. The packaging is beautiful so these are also nice for gift giving. read more
