The waffle cone was the best I've ever had anywhere. I tried the ube flavor and the banana mac nut brittle. I loved both but loved the ube more that I had to come back the next day to get it again. It's a super cute spot with a chill vibe. It's a perfect afternoon snack after the beach. The workers were all very nice and sweet. I wish they did samples because it's too much of a commitment to try something and what if I don't love it.
When a shop says "this is the best _____ you'll ever have", most of the time it doesn't live up to the hype. Pink's not only meets it, but exceeds expectations. The coconut ice cream is simply put the best coconut ice cream you will ever have. It's light, creamy, and bursting with the smooth coconut flavor. It's so decadent it almost tastes like a whipped cream. 11/10 would recommend, must-visit while in Hanalei.
Super cute shop! I forgot to take a pic of my actual ice cream because I was too distracted by the free lactase they had love that they are so considerate of those who can't digest lactose very easily. I think we got a sorbet and it was much needed on such a hot day the worker was new and his manager was so kind helping him!
I am an "ice cream snob" and don't give out five stars easily. This place was incredible! High end fresh ice cream. I don't usually get a waffle cone but when you walk in and smell them making them I had to have one! Best coconut flavor ice cream I have ever had. Also had the macadamia nut brittle and that was delicious. If you are on the north end of the island this is a "must visit!"
Worth the wait. This ice cream is creamy and delicious. The banana Mac nut brittle and Haupia were my picks today. $10 ice cream hit the spot on a sunny beautiful day.
I love ice cream, and when I saw that there was a highly rated ice cream place in Hanalei by the name of Pink's Creamery, I was excited to check this place out! We went on a Friday around 7:30PM and had a brief 10 minutes wait before getting ice cream in our hands. The ice cream shop is located near the shopping area in Hanalei, and there is a lot (about 10-12 car spots?) right in front shared with a couple of other shops. When we went at 7:30PM there was still a small line out the door as the shop only can service one customer at a time. Since were getting close to the closing time of the shop, they were out of a couple of items such as milkshakes. I got two half scoops for $7.75, which I thought was pretty pricey for two HALF scoops of ice cream - the most recent reviews don't mention this, so just note this. I have tried numerous ice cream shops where this is the price for two full scoops so I was a bit disappointed that they were half scoops. I got the Haupia and Aloha Cherry Truffle as my flavor options - they tasted nice, you can taste the coconut flavor and the cherry bits in the Aloha Cherry Truffle, but the fudge ribbons are bit more hidden and smaller than I expected in the scoops. I also forgot to mention, they also didn't do samples when I went, so hope you enjoy the flavors that you get! As for my experience, I thought that Pink's Creamery was only an alright ice cream shop, where the two things that disappointed me were the bizzare service of one customer at a time in the store, and the $8 - $10 for 1 - 2 scoops of ice cream respectively. If I'm ever in the Hanalei area again, I'm not sure I would revisit.
It's refreshing and delicious! Pink's Creamery serves great ice cream and gelato. It's a perfect way to cool down while passing through Hanalei or heading back from a day at the beach. They also serve grilled cheese sandwiches if you're looking for a light meal or savory snack. My wife and I had just finished a backpacking trip on the Na Pali Coast and stopped in Hanalei after the grueling hike out. We stopped at Pink's after seeing a line wrapped around the building. I ordered the Vegan Coconut Gelato in a sugar cone and was thrilled with the choice. It stands out as one of the best gelato cones I've ever eaten. If you get the opportunity, visit Pink's and try it for yourself. Enjoy! PRO TIP: Ask about their dairy-free options.
I found this place looking on yelp and had to try it since it had such a high score. The high praise is well deserved!! My husband got the Kona mud pie and it was sooo creamy and delicious. I tried the lilikoi (passion fruit) and haupia (coconut). I wanted the lilikoi to be a little bit more tart but still really enjoyed it. Their menu said the haupia was the best coconut ice cream, and it truly was! Absolutely delicious. They also had cans of Diet Coke which was a really delightful surprise! The girl working was super nice. She double checked to make sure what we ordered didn't contain anything we are allergic to. They have a really cute neon sign, and outdoor seating is available.
Came just after breakfast nearby, and I couldn't resist homemade ice cream. I do confirm, this was insanely excellent. Best on the island? I didn't visit any other homemade places, but I doubt anything can top it. I got the banana Mac nut brittle and Haupia (coconut ) . Easily best coconut ice cream I've had, and the banana Mac nut brittle - yes pieces of peanut brittle . Say what ! Both were amazing, on par with Handles ice cream (world famous, if you live and SoCal and never had it check it out tonight, there are multiple locations ) in SoCal. So I do have a very high bar for ice cream, and this crushed it. If we stayed nearby, I would go everyday. They also have grilled cheese , with pineapple and pork. Smelled incredible, but did not order. The girl helping was nice, also from LA!
My friend and I were eating breakfast next door and knew we had to give it a try when people were eating ice cream in the morning. There's a small parking lot infront of the shop, and we were able to find parking. There are a variety of flavors to choose from, but I got the Mac nut. I loved the chunks of Mac nut, and the vanilla base was rich. This was the perfect post-beach treat. The worker was super friendly and patient. They don't let you eat inside the shop, but there's a bench and tables outside. read more
Such a cute lil ice cream shop. You can smell right outside the door. It is very pink inside. I got a banana mac-nut brittle and a cookies & cream milkshake. And it was so good. It's a small shop so they only one group inside at a time, which I loved. They don't do tester but no need all the flavors are so good. This places warms my heart. I loved it so much. Service is great, the staff was fast and accommodating. read more
Delicious ice cream! Got the ube and fudge ripple flavors and both were delicious. Unfortunately no samples before ordering but I'm sure all of their flavors are delicious. Very creamy and tasty and we will definitely return. It is a little pricey but it is good quality ice cream! read more

Go here e for amazing ice cream and their fresher homemade waffle cones! We each tried our ice cream on a waffle cone and they were super fresh and tasty. Coconut flavor was great and my husband loved his mid slide. It's a small shop but with great customer service. There are some benches outside the store and a few picnic tables in the parking lot. The only negative to the place is parking can be a bit tricky but I promise the ice cream is worth it! read more
Cute ice cream shop with a variety of flavors to choose from. It's off of the main road and seemed to have a steady stream of customers coming through. Pros: Good alternative to the shaved ice spot that's usually packed in one of the main shopping plazas in the area Cons: NA read more

Fabulous ice cream spot on the North Shore. Perfect place to stop for a sweet treat after the beach or a long day of shopping. I only wish they were open on Sundays too so I could go more often! Staff is friendly and efficient so if there is a line it usually moves quickly. read more

After soaking in the sun at Hanalei Beach, it made sense that I was craving ice cream, and thank goodness there were so many shops and eateries to check out in Hanalei itself, not too far from the beach. Pink's was easy to spot, while parking was not. When my sister and I found a spot, we walked for a bit before I got a chance to get my scoop. Pink's is quite small and they only allow one family at a time inside. When it was my turn, I went for the single scoop of Kona Mud Pie, coffee ice cream with chocolate and oreo pieces! I'm not usually a chocolate person, but when I travel to different places, I like to try local flavors. The ice cream scooper (perhaps owner?) was super nice to my sister and I. If I was a Hanalei local, this would certainly be a stop for me post-beach day! read more

Super tasty coconut ice cream. Decent priced and conveniently located in hanalei bay. I could see the wait getting a little long but otherwise super delicious. Would recommend the double half scoops to try more flavors read more
Classic ice cream shop where you can smell the fresh waffle cones upon entering the shop. Love that there are lactaid pills for those who may be lactose intolerant on the ice cream case. They also sell cookies here. There are so many good flavors to choose from but we chose the Banana Mac nut brittle and cherry truffle on a waffle cone. The only complaint about the ice cream is that there could have been more brittle in the actual banana macnut brittle ice cream, but overall the flavors were delicious and the fresh waffle cone was so good. read more

I don't even know where to start. I love a good grilled cheese but never had I see one with pineapple so I had to try it. It's cooked to perfection enough crunchiness with the bread and enough cheese to pineapple ratio. The flavors you get with the pineapple is just so good. A little bit of sweet with the sourness of the pineapple a match made in heaven. Not to mention the hot sauce on the side was so tasty. It is pretty spicy but I love spice. The entire dish was super delicious! *side note I had some ice cream too which was so good and creamy. But didn't get a chance to take a picture since I ate it too fast. I would recommend this 5/5. read more
Best thing I've eaten on the island of Kauai so far. We ordered Carmel cream shake and a two scoop waffle cone with Banana Mac nut brittle on top and aloha cherry truffle on bottom. The banana Mac nut brittle was good but the aloha cherry truffle may be one of the best ice cream flavors ever and this girl LOVES ice cream. Service was ok. She seemed abrupt but did warm up a bit. Probably gets old dealing with tourists. There's a bench area inside to sit and a small bench outside to chill with your treat. Look forward to visiting again this week!! read more

I've been dreaming of Kona ice cream since we got to Hawaii and ironically didn't get any in Kona. Didn't disappoint! Got the Kona mud pie - Kona coffee ice cream w Oreo and fudge - so perfectly sweet and good, and chocolate macadamia nut. So many cute local flavors - supposedly the best haupia (coconut) ever too. Wish we had more time to try more! Perfect when you're on the N shore. Is a tiny shop - one group inside at a time. No samples. Does double full or half scoops. read more
