Ran out of Hawaiian Wraps, Sashimi Fish, Crab Cakes, Heffenweinzen Beer. Only one toilet and that one toilet was broken for hours. Service was very rushed and food took over 30 minutes to arrive ordered 2 salads, a soup bowl, and one pasta entrée no meat. Timeline and factual not made up this is an honest account. I hope that somehow many things can be improved as this seems to be quite a well known establishment.

Its 11:30; they just opened and they inform me theyre out of the sandwich of the month even though its still advertised outside… Not so bad if they told me this as soon as I walked in, but they waited until after they took my drink order.

Good… No… great burgers. Onion rings delicious. Cold beer & a great place to catch your teams football while visiting Hilo.

Pretty good burgers. After a long day of ziplines, our tour group decided we needed food and libations(a local, two Californians, two Canadians, and a Dubai resisting Irish women, I promise it’s not a joke). The burger I shared with my husband was tasty, onion rings were very good, fries were classic crinkle. We also shared a cup of soup and some wings. Everything was yummy, standard sports bar eats. Food tasted freshly made, everything was hot, and the fried items weren’t oil bombs. Full bar, and Kona Brewing company on tap(yes!!). The places looks like a typical divey sports bar. The layer of French fry grease adds to the charm. Service was good. Things came out correct and in a timely manner. It’s worth a visit when in Hilo.

I ordered a club sandwhich which Was okay until I found hair in my food. I told the waitress who told the manager who then let us order whatever we wanted on the menu without having to pay for our meal afterwards so for that I am really thankful. I appreciate that they took it serious.

A diamond in the rough. Wow, Hilo… What a dump of a town! Cronies didn’t seem like much from the outside, but the staff was friendly and the food was great! Despite not having any tap beer available, I got a Castaway Pale Ale, which was delightful. The tikichuri soup and crap cakes were kick-ass. Décor was poor, but still better than that of what you’ll see outside their doors. Onto the next town and not looking back…

Just ok for a sports bar but the food is good. This is a prime place to have some drinks and some dinner during the Ho’olaulea, as its right next to stage 3. Note: The 22nd Annual KWXX Ho’olaule’a is scheduled for Saturday, September 26th in Downtown Hilo. Hilo’s largest annual free live music event will feature approximately 20 bands on 4 stages and food and crafts from all over Hawai’i. If you’re in Hilo… check it out! FYI… There are normally bouncers and a cover charge for entry during Ho’olaulea.

Never been to cronies before. First time eating in Hilo, ever. My wife and two friends had awesome burgers which they tell me they love. I had the best fish and chips I have ever had in my life. And I have lived a long life.

It’s the Hawaiian version of Buffalo Wild Wings. The theme of the restaurant is fun and exciting. Service was okay. I was surprised that their hot wings were really impressive and mildly spicy. And that’s saying something because I have a high spice tolerance. When you come here you HAVE to get one of their burgers. My oh my they are gigantic and you probably won’t finish one, but it has some of the freshest, richest meat and other ingredients you can have.

Awesome spot to have a rueban or hamburger. Drinks are decent and service was really good. Hilo is short on fine dining, but this fits the bill for bar and grille. Recommend this to visitors. Mahalo.

This is my favorite burger spot in hilo! I love their swiss and mushroom burger! Never disappoints! The service is also great! Very attentive in filling waters and making sure everything was going well. No happy hour. Gone are the days of the $ 5 pitchers of beer, but still a favorite place of mine!

I stopped by recently for lunch and as usual, the service was great and the tamashiro burger was very good. I don’t care what anyone says, but I love crinkle cut fries, and I can take down a side order by myself. I also just tried their new desserts. I had a goodie goodie and my wife had the lava cake. Both were excellent. Keep up the great work Cronies.

It’s a nice little sports bar in the heart of downtown Hilo. The Kona longboard always tastes better on the Big Island for some reason! I was invited to dinner here on a recent Friday night by a group of friends whom were either running or volunteering for a small ultra distance endurance event called the Hilo to Volcano 50K. It was the night before and I had just arrived at 5:45p at the Hilo airport and my friend drove us directly here for dinner. I haven’t heard of this place before, but thankful for Unilocal,it’s a great way to explore the community and support local businesses, as always! With that said, Cronie’s is where the food and fun is. While it was a quick meal to satisfy the appetite, I wish I could have returned here for a round of happy hour during my most recent trip to Hilo. Just as well though, the experience here was decent, quick, positive, and typical. The mood was quiet, especially on a Friday evening. Where were the drinkers and the party animals? Probably here in Hilo, the party starts later in the evening. Cronie’s is where I would go to hang out and drink beer with friends. I wished I did have more time in Hilo, but that’s how it is. The location is in downtown Hilo, right across the Hilo Bayfront, at 11 Waianuenue Avenue. The parking can be non existent here, but my local Hilo friend found prime parking spot along the Bayfront across the street from the restaurant. Of course, there are some parking areas in downtown Hilo, but you’d need to walk from there. Cronie’s accepts major credit cards, so that’s always a plus. However, my meal was comped by my Hilo friend, whom shook his head at me when the bill came. I thanked him of course and that was pretty excellent. I ultimately ordered the bacon cheese burger with fries and a Kona long board lager. Not the wisest choice the evening before running 50K from Hilo to Volcano on Highway 11, but that’s how it shook down. I was living in the moment and celebrated a little too loosely. The longboard beer was excellent, obviously. Its a lighter beer in color and goes down great with any meal option you desire. However, while delicious, the bacon cheeseburger was typical and left to the imagination. The bacon was fun and the cheese on the burger was nice, but it didn’t really satisfy me, but it was still a good meal. It’s one of those meals where you wished you wanted more, but still okay with the real result. The fries were good, as always. I had my choice of onion rings too, but that was for another trip at a future time. For what it’s worth, Cronie’s is decently good. Just to hang out with friends over a beer and talk story is what makes Cronie’s awesome. I’d recommend this place for that and any private gatherings you may have with friends is fun too. Solid 4.0 stars. Support local! B

Visiting Hilo meant being able to meet up with my high school friends who live there. I was so stoked to meet everyone and get to party with them for the evening. We all decided to meet at this place as it’s centrally located and convenient for a bunch of us. Driving up to this place, I was given the amazing opportunity to see Hilo Bay front at dusk. Such a beautiful place. The old buildings lined up in a row depict the olden day Hilo town. This joint is located on the corner of Waianuenue Ave and Kamehameha Ave, known as Hilo Bay front. Cronies comes off as more of a sports bar vibe. Lots of different jerseys, pennants and TV’s playing sports games solidify this theme. The service was good. Our server was super accommodating and personable. She even split our checks up even though we did not ask. Our part was 14 people strong, so to do that proactively, I was impressed. For the evening, I got the coors light draft for around $ 5. Super reasonable and the beer was good. For dinner, I got the Teriyaki Chicken for $ 10.95. My side of choice was a scoop of rice. Kind of weird, but I though it wasn’t a burger. My bad for not reading carefully. This is a staff favorite. Marinated and char broiled chicken breast, topped with grilled pineapples and swiss cheese. In my opinion, I wasn’t too much of a fan. The chicken was a little dry and not really a fan of the pineapple. I tried to deconstruct the burger to enjoy it with the rice, but nothing seemed to change. I’m kind of sad that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I hoped to. For a bar to start our evening, this place was a good place to do it. It was alright in my opinion and not really somewhere I would make a special trip back to visit. I still think for Hilo, this place is good. Thanks for the awesome service!
