Jeff, Neal, and Chelsea took the jaunt Halloween 2012. This is the route we took from the Ilikai:
Of course we needed a Fairy:
Neal sprained his ankle less than a 1/4 mile from the Ilikai. Somehow limped through the dive bar tour......
1st stop:
Kings Pub - HAWAIIAN MONARCH HOTEL 444 NIU ST WAIKIKI (Ala Wai/Niu)
2nd stop:
Bacchus Bar 408 Lewers Street, Honolulu, HI
Bacchus was a super hero/Roman themed bar. Apparently Bacchus was the God of Grapes/Wine. A gay bar where all the patrons were friendly. They had a 2 for 1 deal when we were there. Captain America was lurking somewhere. Fun place with good music.
3rd stop:
Honolulu Tavern 417 Nohonani St., #C Honolulu, Hi. 96815 (Nohonani/Kuhio)
Very small tavern off Kuhio Street. Food and drink with daily specials. Friendly "Cheers" type place with darts and other pub games. Very friendly bartender
4th stop:
Me Too BBQ @ The Royal Grove for dinner
Great place for pigging out. $9 gets you a huge entree with rice plus 4 sides. I had the Katsu Chicken / rice / broccoli / sweet potato / Kemchi. Yum yum!
5th stop
Lava rock Lounge 2330 Kalakaua Avenue
***Could not find in the Kalakaua Halloween crowds ***
6th stop
In Between-
2155 Lauula Street Kalakaua/Lewers
7th stop
Wailana Lounge 1816 Ala Moana
Somehow I limped here with Fairy being of no help. We had MaiTai's and watched yet more Karaoke. Fairy was on strike with regards to one more song. Good singers here.
