There's sure is something brewing here in Kalihi! What a great place to unwind you day than at Broken Boundary located right along the river behind Kapalama Shopping Center deep in the industrial area as the only signage is a "Brewery" flag flying curbside which is all you need to know that you're there. Though I was confused once I got there as I see some logo of Broken Boundary glasses but Kalihi Beer Merchandise it seems like they rebranded and if it still gives us wonderful sips it's cheers to a brewtiful craft. This spacious warehouse layout is nice you can see the dominate brewing barrels take up majority of the space on one side while on the flip side is an area where they do some cooking demonstration and more interesting events are brewing up. Which doesn't leave much seating as you imagined with a couple of tvs though we came at slow time I assumed as there was just a handful of others there I imagined it was more friends or regulars hanging out. Though a small but a decent lunch vibe menu we came here just for that with a nice selection of sandwiches, some small street tacos, quesadilla and even a salad and after a few errands we just was hungry and getting around Kalihi is a challenge with so many detours staying close was our option and decided to give them a peek. It was the Turkey Pesto Sandwich loaded with all they usually yummy fixings (turkey, provolone, arugula, tomato, pesto) on sliced sourdough bread toasted on a panini press which comes with kettle chips or arugula salad for +$2 and what a great sandwich would definitely have it again! Taco was definitely a craving I had to try...$4 each felt quite pricy but it was stuffed to the point as much as the tortilla will hold there are three choice (Chicken, Carne Asada and Poblano Peppers) which I got all three of course and to no surprise the Poblano Peppers was my favorite! Pepper just made it all work though the mushrooms and onions played a major supporting role, just love the vibe here it's super chill taking away all my adulting bleh reminding me to not worry beer happy. Thank you!
Of course everyone says "Kalihi?!" Love this place! There is a little parking lot but there is street parking. Freshest beer ever! We also had their quesadillas and cheesy bread! Friendly staff and great service. Love the ambiance inside - ample room for business or social gatherings. Lots of networking and cooking demos here! Check it out!
I can see why Broken Boundary wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea. It's located in an open, spacious warehouse setting with little (or no?) air conditioning, a few tables, a few stools, and a couple tv's. It very much emits the "hanging with best buds in the garage" kind of vibes, but in the best kind of way. If Broken Boundary is anything, it's honest. They make interesting styles of beer which I found incredibly satiating. If you're looking for aesthetic and ambiance, this place is not for you. If you're looking for a quick bite and cold beer, Broken Boundary more than satiates. I was a big fan of the pulled pork sliders. Anything on a Hawaiian sweet roll tickles my fancy. I'm not sure I'd have ended up here if it weren't for the nearby Bishop Museum. We walked from the museum, but we could have easily found street parking at the brewery. The brewery also shares space with a homebrew supplier, including kombucha products, if you're into that sort of thing. The staff was very laid back, and service was not overwhelmingly great the bartender was very friendly.
Very average brewery. Warehouse style spot that serves up a large menu of beer (heavy IPA, pilsners, dark beers) and decent food menu. Limited food menu and served picnic style but the roasted pulled pork sliders (weekend special) were delicious. Smaller spot that can seat a group no larger than 4-6 people and merch is available. Local vibes / spot.
Great for a fun night with a small group. We went with a group of 4 at 5pm and got seats right away, but the place was full by 5:30. I did street parking, but it sounds like they have a few reserved spots at the building (just don't leave any valuables in the car). The beer selection was nice (you can get flights of 4 and most beers have the flight price listed). Don't forget to ask for specials. They have a QR menu, but I recommend the poblano & mushroom quesadilla.
Booze it up with @brokenboundary808 If you're looking for a place in the heart of Kalihi to just relax after a long and busy day and have a cold one, @brokenboundary808 is the place for you! With their in-house brewed beers and IPAs, you're in for a treat. Here my boyfriend ordered a flights of IPAs. I forgot the names but he liked them all if that say anything LOL. They also brew all their IPAs in house so you're literally dinning inside of a brewery. Thought that was pretty awesome because the last place you think a brewery existed was in Kalihi. Not only that, they started serving food and their newest item is this smashed burger that comes with garlic fries (super good btw!!) You can even order some quesadillas for the perfect pairing with a cold one. Check out @brokenboundary808 with ample street parking, a great menu, and the perfect place to pau hana!
Broken Boundary Brewery is a great local brewery located in Kalihi and so worth the trip. Not as busy as Beerworks or Aloha Beer Co but has just as good beer.. This is a simple place with a nice chill vibe. The backdrop is the tanks full of beer and brewing equipment. They have seats at the bar and a number of tables for groups. This local business needs our support to help keep them in business. The place is a hidden gem with some really good beers. I enjoyed the Saison, Kolsch, Monkeypod Stout as well as the IPA. You can take beer to go as well, just check the fridge for what you like or bring a growler. I really enjoy the food. I have had the Smash Burger and Fries, Carnitas Taco and the Carne Asada Taco, all excellent and reasonable prices. I usually just walk but they have a parking lot and looks like lots of street parking. Service is excellent and the folks are passionate and enjoy what they do. If you want to know about beer, they will gladly tell you about the process. Come out and try this local brewery, you'll definitely be hooked.
Industrial area, local crowd, no AC so drink up. It's a nice local spot that brews its own. Used to be broken boundaries. Nice part is they also have food.
Fantastic beers! 4oz portions available. Really great tasting shoestring fries!!!!!! Great service! A+++++++++ Going back for sure! Thanks Rod U!!!!!
What a great brewery! I decided to try their flight and try 4 of their best flavors. Lilikoi cider was a 10/10, mango beer was a 10/10, the ginger beer was 7/10 (but that's my personal taste) it just reminded me of kombucha, and the Kolsch was good 9.5/10. Service: 10/10 KC was super attentive of all his customers, personable and interacted with everyone. He always made sure to check in and gave a few recommendations. Food: they had smash burger that day and let me tell you! Best burger ever 10/10, it also had jelly and it was delicious! Amazing brewery and service, definitely earned a regular here!
Excellent brewery nestled in the mean streets of Kalihi. This place is tucked in to a space in the industrial area near the canal. Good spot for pau hana with lots of street parking. I stopped by on a Friday afternoon after work for a few beers and some grinds. The brewed beer is really good here. My favorite was the monkeypod stout which is a dark beer with lots of flavor and character. They have a 4oz glass option which is very good if you want to try various different brews in a visit. The food menu is limited, but very good. We had the quesadilla and lots of tacos. My favorite were the carne asada and the carnitas. The former comes with guacamole and the latter comes with cilantro. If both had both of those, it would elevate the taste quite a bit. They also had fries on the menu, but I didn't try those. They also had a special adobo flavor for the tacos, but it was sold out for the day. Great spot to try for some superb craft beer and Mexican bites.
Through a non descript door on the side of a warehouse, polished concrete floors, reclaimed wooden tables, counters and bar top, amidst the shining stainless steel tanks, sits an amazing dispensary (not weed) of locally brewed, unfiltered craft beer so good they will make you weep. Examples? An unconventional saison with its atypical high 6.4% ABV. Unfiltered, creating an almost creamy mouth feel with the hint of tongue tingling effervescence. Tart and gently bitter in all the right ways. The higher alcohol is in perfect balance A Belgian Blonde (Jean Claude Van Blonde) with the herbal, wet forest floor nose of an Old World Trappist brew and bold upfront flavor that finishes clean like a pilsner. This time, a somewhat lower alcohol content (7.2% ABV) restrains the bitterness and flabbiness and keeps the entire flavor in check. The kolsch (On Common Ground) and the Hawaiian style IPA (Let's Go!) flavored with strawberry guava pulp both equally pleasing on a warm day. Other in house brewed IPA's and stouts available that have not yet been sampled. That will change soon. Drink in or takeaway. Crowlers and growlers filled while you wait, available. Very friendly service with samples freely offered. Note: The online ordering portal is out of date and does not work. Calls go unanswered. Just show up in person. COVID safety protocols in place and enforced. Not slammed busy like the other Kakaako craft breweries, instead offering a chill vibe and top caliber brews.
Let's start by saying that I have been excited as heck to come try Broken Boundary for months and months! I've heard great things about it, have read great reviews and have been eyeing the photos of the delicious-looking food every time I visit their page. After two failed attempts at coming, we finally made it today for lunch and tasting flights. Unfortunately, our experience did not live up to the hype. Service was subpar. It seemed that our server was new, but it definitely made our experience less enjoyable. I ordered a flight that never came to the table. After about 20ish minutes, the server checked in and I had to completely re-order the flight. The second time around, it was brought out quickly, but I was charged for both and had to do lots of explaining before it was situated. Beers were all decent. My favorite was the bread pudding. They only have 7 beers available, which seemed sparse. The server said the thinks that there are usually more options. Food-wise, the only noteworthy bite was the smash burger. The bacon jam was delicious. Presentation was NOT as catching as many of the pictures shown on yelp. It was served next to a sad pile of soggy, lukewarm fries. We also got the carne asada quesadilla and the poblano street tacos. Both of these choices were mediocre. The quesadilla could have been awesome, but the steak was tough. I actually did enjoy the tacos, but the friends that I shared them with did not like them for some reason. I'm sad to leave a less than epic review for this place. I have high hopes that we would have a much better time if we visit again, but I'm not sure if we will.

Their rueben is the best I've had, it's huge! Lots of meat, great fresh and fluffy rye bread, and not a heaping amount of thousand island. It was perfect. I absolutely love the food, the staff, and the beer! Not to mention, it is quiet and pretty chill. Just a nice place to hang out with friends for a beer. read more

DIY Porter 5.1% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Chocolatey, roasted, toffee - a lovely mouthfeel sensation https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=PEuHfxpje6mjyij0hpgcgg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw!

SERVICE I easily found a seat at the bar, warmly greeted by a woman then later by young energetic staff members (Sarah!), and the beers came out quick and easy with a smile. All was good - mahalo! PARKING (FREE) No onsite parking, but there are plenty of spots along the main drag of Moowaa St. and the surrounding streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Located in an industrial area inside a large warehouse-type structure, there was plenty of inside seating that utilized both barstools and chairs/tables throughout https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wfMHyB9biv8cNBcx662M5g&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, a section for special events https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=437IamG4bKpajhXpQDF1Sw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, hardly any wall decorations, and a visible beer menu hung up on a wall https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=kJTAxZZzXI-DfxL6PCs52A&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. There was one TV while cool indie rock music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=6zpU2FaaOg2_-SzOfw3agg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Kalihi Beer was a hit with me! The patrons were awesome, prices were comparable, service very friendly, beers were tasty but wished they had more variety, and the food options were very limited. This was also a family and pet-friendly (events on certain nights) place. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $145.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

Great beer, great tacos & quesadillas, great service, ample street parking. Just an all around fun place to go to have some drinks with your significant other, buddies, or anybody! I really appreciate the option of ordering 4 oz glasses because we were able to try a bunch of different beers all in one visit. So this time we tried 4, along with one of the soft drinks. I typically prefer lighter, fruity beers, so I tried an IPA called Dancing with Miranda and it fit the bill perfectly. Even my fiance liked it, despite the fact that he normally doesn't care for IPAs. The Man-Li was also very good. Another light drink that didn't overpower any other drinks of the food. The tacos were packed with the goodies. My favorite was the carnitas but all had tasty, well-balanced flavors. Will definitely be back! read more
We came here straight from the airport. The servers are fantastic and the beers are delish. We tried the Miranda, the Kolsch, and the Stout... all excellent. As for food, mycarnitas taco was of the hook: very flavorful and a good amount of spiciness. The carne asada taco same the poblano tacos were fine, but IMHO they paled in comparison to the carnitas... In retrospect I wish I had ordered three carnitas. As for downsides, the atmosphere is fairly blah. Also,, although we happened to find an open spot on the street, the parking is less than ideal during the day with pretty much all the street parking filled (we were there around 1pm on a Friday)... At night I imagine there would be more street parking available. The pros definitely outweigh the cons by far, and if definitely recommend this place. the string fries were quite tasty. read more

Great place to chill. They have a small dining area but not too crowded, maybe because it's not as popular to the tourists yet. Amazing food!! Perfect pair for their small beer menu. My boyfriend and I shared their beer flight so we were able to try out all the available beer that night! Price is worth it, food is 100/10, locally crafted beer is good!! Really worth it driving to Kalihi. read more
I love high ABV and Belgian type beers (dubbels, Triples). *Wish bestowed* Triples with lychee or soursop, AMAZING. Not overpowering flavors, but strong in strength. Lots of IPA inspired beers. Crowlers and cans to go. Located in a warehouse district in Kalihi with street and lot parking. Friendly service. I appreciate that Hawaii has a special Belgian and IPA forward brewery. read more

Glad to find a truly great brewery with an amazing staff and owner! Mahalo to Chris, Gail and everyone over at Kalihi Beer for letting us host a celebration at the brewery. Everyone was extremely polite, attentive and genuine. And the beer is unreal! Don't get me wrong, there's good breweries on the island but, Kalihi tops them all. Get a flight, and then pick your ideal beer to stay with. The food was excellent, far better then just pub food. Looking forward to many more beers here! read more

I needed some ideas for date night and knew we were going to grab dinner around Kalihi. I did a quick search to find brewery/bars around the area and found this spot. We decided to give it a try. This is definitely a great place for dat night or social get-together. Location: They have an excellent location. It appears to be an industrial area which means it had plenty of street parking and wide streets. At the same time, it was a side street industrial area which means it was also very quite. Interior: Now the interior was really dope! They have their seating and bar in the middle of their tanks which offers an amazing aesthetic. The have nice tables to be seated however they did have plastic folding chairs. They were comfortable at first but eventually your back will start to ache. There's no loud music which makes at a great place to chat with your loved one or friends. Service: I didn't catch the name of our young waiter, but he was really welcoming and nice. He offered us plenty of tasters to try out our drinks. He definitely was a refreshing splash of sincere service. The other staff was also very kind and considerate. Beer: They offer a great palette of beers to get your taste in. I'm definitely a stout guy whenever I'm not eating a entree that light ales complement better. I ordered their Monkeypod Stout - it was absolutely delicious! I also appreciated their Let's Go (Strawberry Guava IPA). read more

Incredible little whole in the wall. Very petite menu but options on beers that they brew in house is definitely a must. I believe you can't go wrong with anything you have from here it just depends what your in the mood for the day you come in. Customer service is great and order to table being served I felt was quite a quick turn around for me. If in the are and feeling a little bit of beer with some good pupus feel free to stop on by I'm most certain you won't be disappointed. read more

Broken Boundary Brewery is Oahu's newest, but the history and location go back a long time. The brewery is located in the only homebrewing store on the island, Homebrew in Paradise. This business has gone through many owners and changed locations, but when it was acquired by two partners, Bill Sumrow and Chris Cook, they already had plans to add a brewery. Over the last few years they've completely transformed the building from an old warehouse into an organized and comfortable place to visit. It's still two businesses in one, Homebrew in Paradise offers all the supplies and ingredients you could need to jump into the hobby. They used reclaimated pallet wood to separate the businesses. From the main entrance, restrooms are directly to the back, with seating along both sides. At the back right you'll find the bar area, which as of this writing offers growler and crowler fills, as well as merchandise. The brewery area is to the right; windows let you see the equipment. In the old garage area is a large refrigerator and space for future tables and games. The plan is to add outdoor seating along the street. They have dedicated parking spots in the lot to the left as well as free street parking in the neighborhood. On to the beer. The brewers are all about traditional and classic styles, maybe with a hint of their own signature and local ingredients. You should expect good quality beer made well. At the soft opening during the stay-at-home orders, they have five to choose from: a red ale with ginger, pale ale, West Coast IPA, Belgian strong blond, and a porter. All are delicious; you can ask for samples. More styles will be added all the time. When the brewery opens fully, you'll be able to get full pours to enjoy on the property. Crowler fills are $13 each for any style, growlers are placed by the size of the container; for the quality, these are excellent prices. For any beer fan, this is a must stop and worth the trip. It's Kalihi's only brewery making it a great waiting area for bad Ewa traffic after work. read more
I've been coming to this spot a lot now and I think it's time for a little Review Update. Since my friends and I discovered this brewery, we been frequently visiting that we became regulars and got to know most of the workers here. They have changed a lot and had a lot of different events. First off, they do have Trivia Nights on Tuesdays. We've been to first one and it was super fun. They have happy hour during that time, and you get to learn some new and interesting facts. They also had a few Thursday Night Paint Nite events. It's a limited ticketed event where you have a few drinks and learn how to paint. Besides their amazing beers that they brew, they had a big update to their kitchen. The tacos and smash burgers are not available daily now, but they do have new sandwiches and salads to make up for them. The sandwiches are super good. I've already tried three out of the four they offered. The Turkey Pesto is my favorite. They are served with a side of chips or arugula salad. Don't worry their famous Tacos and Burgers usually come out the first and third Saturdays of the month. So you still get to see them occasionally. I've loved that this place has grew and I been to some places that are selling their beers. Also i'm loving all these events they come up with. Super fun and chill place to have a pau hana. read more

Delicious cuisine with ample servings! Fun venue with operational brewery on premises and viewable from the seating. Had the Turkey Pesto Sandwich and it is down-home onolicious! My lunch buddy had the Rubin and didn't even leave a crumb on the plate. Looking forward to coming back for dinner and the live music! read more

Nothing beats pau hana on a Friday afternoon, amirite? There's something special about unwinding after a long work week with some brews that absolutely excites me and there's nothing I love more than celebrating some original home grown talent. Broken Boundary Brewery is exactly that and more. This not so tiny, hole-in-the-wall brewery had my boyfriend and I, picking our jaws up off the ground immediately after turning into the parking lot. Who knew that such a gem existed in Kalihi?! I'm no beer expert but you could immediately feel the amount of love and passion that all of the people working here had for this place. From the open seating area basically located in their work area to the huge brewing machines--this place is a beer lovers dream. As more of a seltzer kind of girl, I opted for their house made ginger seltzer. In my opinion, this drink was great. Not overly sweet or bubbly but juuuuuuust right. This place also makes teeny tiny tacos to snack on and let's just say that these things were gone in a second because they were soooo delicious. I'm sure if we didn't have dinner plans, my boyfriend and I could've easily eaten 20 of them between the both of us. All in all, this place offered a great atmosphere for beer lovers and local beer enthusiasts alike. read more
Good smash burger Saturday! For 12.99 on saturdays you can get a double cheeseburger with bacon jam, pickles, and cheddar cheese with chips on the side. It was good for bar food although I do wish it came with fries. The chips were fresh and crunchy though! They were very nice and accommodated for my dog even though the restaurant doesn't have outdoor seating. There is a shared parking lot with some nearby car shops. They only have indoor seating. The vibe is laid back and you can bring friends, kids, or just a date. The waiter was really nice too! Definitely a solid place to hang out. read more
