Honolulu Cookie Company

Tonight I went and got cookies from here. I asked the worker Shanell if I could get a small box instead of a medium for packing purposes and instead of explaining why not or being accommodating she rejected my request and was rude and just said «No», «inventory». Shitty customer service. Get the cookies from another location

I love this place! When I told my family and friends I was going to go to Oahu for my honeymoon, everyone started asking me for cookies. Before I was familiar with Hawaiian foods and things, I thought Honolulu cookie company and big island candies was the same thing. And shortly before I came, I finally found out they are different! So I ended up coming to Honolulu cookie company first to buy all the souvenirs for my friends (they like Honolulu cookie company and my family likes big island candies). It is packed in here! Probably because it’s right by the hotels and tourist spots but I ended up going back early the next morning around 9 am and was able to get everything I needed. I didn’t know, but, if you bought more than 100 dollars, you get a gift. I ended up buying over 200 dollars worth of cookies and they gave me two really decent sized boxes of cookies so that was really awesome. They also have samples along the front of the store. My favorite has to be pineapple (it’s pineapple! Duh!). These cookies make the best gifts for anyone looking to find a tasty souvenir to bring back for family and friends.

The Service: very friendly! very knowledgeable about their products. 9 different kinds of cookies for sampling.
The Cookies: they are not super sweet, very buttery. Majority retail stores in Hawaii. Few in Vegas. But definitely can order online. Now they offer discount for shipping!

This place has some pretty tasty shortbread cookies shaped like pineapples. They also have samples available for you to try. It is very expensive especially if you buy the pre-​packed cookies in the nice containers. I would suggest you buy the loose cookies (20 for ~$ 15.65) since you get to choose the flavors you want. My favorites are the white chocolate macadamia and the lilikoi with mango shortbread.

Great overpriced cookies. Lots of samples. We definitely ate our moneys worth. We bought a bunch for the room and to bring home as gifts. Nice gift boxes.

Delicious! Love that they have so many dark chocolate options! I choose one of each! Likely I’ll be back before we leave:)

I’m so glad I don’t live near a place that sells Honolulu Cookie Company cookies. These cookies are TOO good. Every time I’m in Hawaii I pick up a big jar of assorted cookies. Oh, and those little chocolate chip snack cookies??? I could easily eat a whole tub in one sitting. Far too tasty! :)

I bought cookies for friends and family back home. i ate them all… I hate this place.

Friendly staff!!! Wonderful tasty cookies! Great gift to give to friends and family as Hawaiian gift :) you get free samples before making your final decision. Favorite is the kona coffee flavor and the white chocolate dipped cookie. Love how they are shaped as pineapples :)

This review is for all the Honolulu Cookie company stores. I’ve visited about 5 different stores throughout oahu and all have great customer service, clean store and wide variety of selections.
The best part is the free samples! I have to admit sometimes after eating a meal we’d come here for some free dessert! They cut the cookies into bite size pieces and separate them by flavor. My favorite flavors were the Kona chocolate, coconut and guava.
They have a wide variety of prepackaged assorted cookies from a small box of 6 cookies to large boxes with 3 dozen cookies. They also have an a la carte section where you can pick the amount I cookies you want and the type of flavor you want. A bit more expensive but worth it if you are picky about the flavors you get.
Spend $ 50 and you get a free bag of 8 cookies. Spend $ 100 and you get a box of 18 cookies.

I. Love. Shortbread. Cookies. And Honolulu Cookies Company has the best!
There are a bunch of HCC stores/​stands around the Waikiki area… tourist trap! Jk. This place is worth the visit and worth the money. What I like about this place is that they offer samples of pretty much all the different types of cookies they sell. The original butter shortbread cookie dipped in milk/​dark chocolate is my favorite.
The employees here are super friendly and very helpful. They described each gift box to me and helped me pick out the right ones — there were so many gift boxes to choose from!
They also have a stamp card which my mother and I filled up with our purchases. In return we received a free baggie of 6 shortbread cookies. YAY!
We still have a couple of cookies left here at home, and I’m savoring every single cookie!

These cookies are some of my favorites. Not just because they give you free samples either.
We came here at least 4 times on our vacation. I bought some a la carte flavored cookies for our stay. Then a 16 piece set for bringing home. Then a dozen box for our neighbors who watered our garden while we were away.
We ate all of the cookies including our 16 piece box but excluding our neighbors box. You can’t stop once they touch your lips.
My all time favorite flavors are Macadamia Mango and Dark Chocolate Coconut. I had to go back the day we left to stock up for the trip home and those two flavors were the majority.
You can also order them online. Which I haven’t done. I do have a little bit of self control.

I adore Honolulu Cookie Company! They have super friendly staff and they have 5 – 6 of their cookies for sampling at any given time. It’s not like those places where the staff walks around with samples — they have them pre-​cut and in boxes with tiny tongs to pick them up with.
After trying a few of the flavors, I think my personal favorite is the lilikoi mango, which has a sweet fruit flavor. I also liked the dark chocolate kona, which has a light coffee flavor. We wound up buying so much to bring back home to friends and family that we filled up one stamp card with one purchase!
They offer prepackaged sets of their flavors or you can pick your own flavors and put them in boxes — there’s a small box that fits 5 cookies, a medium box and a large box. You can mix and match to your liking, which I thought was really great.

Cute Cookies!
How cute is that??! And they taste good also! I haven’t had the pleasure of going into one of their stores, but this was brought to me from a friend who got back from Hawaii. I didn’t eat them right away for two reasons. First, because they were just so darn cute! Secondly, because I am never impressed by store bought shortbread cookies. I didn’t expect much. But these were really good! I loved the different flavors for a unique twist to the otherwise bland shortbread cookie.
In my little bag was Lillikoi Mango, Coconut, and Pineapple Macadamia. I was only gonna eat one, but they were so yummy, I polished off all three cookies and wished I had more. I immediately went online to get more info on these cookies and saw all the other flavors that I have yet to try.
An see an online order in my future. They have wonderful packaging for gift giving. Maybe a Mother’s Day gift?

The best cookie you can get in Oahu. Lilikoi is my personal favorite.
My wife usually spends over $ 100 for cookies here and we usually don’t have space in our luggage when we fly back to New York because of all those delicious cookies.

Before I came here, I had never heard of them. Then my parents who recently moved here told me about the «cookie store that gives out free sample and is everywhere like Starbucks in Seattle!»
There are at least 5 stores in Waikiki — Ala Moana area, by the way. I am reviewing the one in Royal Hawaiian Center since this was the last one I visited to buy more cookies to bring home.
First of all, I am not a cookie-​person. So reluctantly I trotted along after my parents to one of the stores off of Waikiki Beach walk. I thought, «Sure… free samples and then the shopkeepers would hunt and pester you to buy the cookieeeh!»
Then… «ALOHA!!! Welcome!!! Please sample our cookies… right here… we have (list the 7 – 8 cookies being sampled out) and we have water in case you like some after sampling the cookies» and he walked away to greet more customers.
Me — «WOAH?! Wha!!! Perhaps he’ll come back in 2 minutes!»
Mum — «Newp. We’ve been to the other stores and the staff in each of those stores are pretty much doing the same thing that guy just did. Here, try this…»
Me — «Hm… weird.»
After the third visit to the store, I started liking the shopping experience and the non-​pushy extra helpful shopkeepers. One of them even offered some suggestions to me and my mum to get the best deal on my purchase.
Some examples: The tin can has 32 cookies for $ 19.95, A la carte 20 cookies for $ 12.95, $ 1 for a cookie.
Aside from tasty cookies (white choc macadamia, triple choc, mango, etc.), beautiful packaging and cute boutique-​y looking stores, most importantly they have courteous, helpful and friendly staff.
I will definitely recommend this cookie place to everyone I know!
Tips — Get their stamp card. It will never expire! More reason to come back to HI, I guess. :)

I LOVE the Honolulu Cookie Company! This is a great place to buy souvenirs to bring back to your friends/​family since not everyone has heard of these delicious cookies. It was only a year ago that my friend brought some back for me and I’ve been hooked ever since. The best thing about going into the store is that they have free samples of all the cookie flavors (or very close to all the flavors) and you can help yourself to as many samples as you’d like! They have different gift options available, and you can also package your own assortment as well. Another great thing is that they give you a stamp card for your purchases, and you can earn free gifts if you get a certain number of stamps– and the stamp cards never expire!
Overall, highly recommended that you stop by and check out the cookies at Honolulu Cookie Company. My favorites are the Guava and Chocolate & White Chocolate covered Macadamia Nut, but the bf and his family loved the White Chocolate Kona Coffee flavor.

FREEBIES!!! Save room after your meal for your complimentary dessert at the Honolulu Cookie Factory!
The Flavor of the Day hasn’t changed in over a week. We might have came here every day! The cookies are a bit expensive, but hey they have to make some $$$ off all the freeloaders.

This store was small but had everything I needed. I went to SF for the weekend and one of my friends wanted me to bring him a couple of boxes of the Honolulu Cookie Company Cookies. I looked up their locations on-​line and found that they have quite a few in Waikiki. AWESOME!
I walked in and the sales girls were all very nice, friendly, and knowledgable about their product. I was in and out with my gifts.
Must try: They have a stamp card that never expires. If you buy $ 50 worth you get a small bag of cookies, if you buy $ 100 worth you get a box of cookies. Good deal if you buy lots of omiyage like I do. Great gifts for the mainland.

Staff wasn’t as friendly, nor attentive here as the one at the Hilton Hawai’ian Village. The atmosphere here was much darker and made me miss the brightly-​lit and smaller, yet less-​stuffy location at the Hilton. The close proximity to the beach across the street also attracts hungry young surfers who are looking for cheap (free!) high-​carb fixes. Perhaps this is a reason why the employees here don’t even bother to greet incoming customers hello. I entered the store w/​the intention of purchasing a few more boxes of the Dark Chocolate Collection, but I left soon after the realization that
a. my presence was not going to be acknowledged, and
b. the young shirtless surfer wasn’t going to move away from the sampling station for me to try the white chocolate macadamia nut wedges.
Two different locations, two very different experiences. I say, skip this store and visit the one at the Hilton! The products cost the same, but you’ll have more fun, and be more appreciated for your business, over there!
