Pink's Creamery
Nin J.

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 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!"

Aloha Cherry Truffle and Haupia Two Half Scoops - $7.75
Michael X.

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.

Non-Dairy Coconut Ice Cream

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.

Kona mud pie
Hannah N.

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!

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.

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

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!

Best ice cream spot on the north side of the island. Perfectly situated near Hanalei Bay. My son loved the waffle cone & mango ice cream with sprinkles. Great spot to grab a cone & head over to the beach & enjoy!

Strawberry and lilikoi
Claire B.

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

We were seated on the covered patio, overlooking their lawn and the Hanalei River. The food was straightforward and good, but what we liked the most was our server. I sadly don't recall her name but she was a young girl who grew up in Hanalei and clearly has passion for food and for service. She knew the menu and spoke confidently about it, and shared little anecdotes along the way - she was attentive, informative, joyful, and yet not intrusive. A shining service star. The mixed tempura starter was tasty. The salad was a plate of fresh veggies - fresh but basic in presentation and flavor. I personally might skip this next time. We really enjoyed the daily special of soba noodles with yuzu sauce. Bright and citrusy. And the sushi rolls we enjoyed were clean in flavor with a focus on the fresh fish: -Next Best Thing -Hamachi -Avocado roll Another friend said that she orders the sushi rolls to go. And she also told me about their neighboring fish market, if you want to get fish to make at home (we did not have time to check that out). To cap our our meal, we shared a piece of the Homemade Dolphine Ice Cream Pie and it was decadently delicious!

You can sit inside or out and they have the doors open so the wind was going through, which of course made me cold. But they have gluten-free buns. So I was able to get a Burger and side salad because the fries were preseasoned and therefore not gluten-free which seems to be the theme on this island. Smh. The young lady who took our order was very friendly and gluten-free herself so she knew exactly what I was going through and has a list of items that can be gluten-free. I ordered Fresh Island Fish Sandwich at $26.95 Grilled fresh garlic buttered fish served with a lemon caper dill mayonnaise and "the works" on a toasted gluten-free bun. It was huge! Juicy and very flavorful. The House salad was also huge and the house thousand Island dressing that came with it was delicious. My husband ordered Moe's Ultimate Burger at $23.95 with Guacamole, bacon and pepper jack cheese with "the works" and his came with the seasoned fries. It was a huge burger as well and very flavorful. He enjoyed it. We ordered the virgin piña colada's at $7.75ea. They were in a 10-120z or regular size glass and tasted pretty good coming in at a cool third place. There's a bar inside that you can sit with TVs to watch surfing and or games. The decor is paintings from local artist from what I gather that you can also purchase. We'll definitely visit here again.

She uses fresh local ingredients with a style that is bold in her use of spices and herbs, many of which come from her garden. Our first night we selected off of her Hawaiian Pacific menu, starting with her Ahi Bruschetta with an avocado mouse and her Purple Sweet Potato galettes, then a Farm Fresh Salad to lead into the entrees of Steak and MahiMahi with grilled veggies and an amazing Cauliflower done two ways. Matcha Brownies with Haupia ice cream and a black salt sprinkle brought it all home! The following dinner stepped the flavors even more over the top as we enjoyed her Mediterranean menu. We started with an incredible Mezzo platter including delicious hummus and the freshest, most flavorful feta I have ever had. The menu progressed to include a beautiful salt crusted Red Snapper (see Pix) and concluded with an awesome Strawberry Rose Coconut Cheesecake. Our family has a wide range of tastes and includes some serious foodies (two live in San Francisco and dine out multiple times a week) and all were blown away. Her portions are also very generous, so we enjoyed a full leftover meal the following days. I heartily recommend Farm Cook Kauai for an incredible personal chef dining experience!
