Get lei’d.

Sip in style at a boozy bougie oasis that most definitely passes the IG vibe check—if you can find it

Giving and receiving lei is a long-honored tradition in Hawai‘i. While you can certainly find them at the airport, many locals head directly to Chinatown for their floral fix. But what if you also wanted a little libation with your lei? Well that was the written-on-a-napkin idea amongst friends that sparked what would eventually become a tropical lounge hidden discreetly inside a functioning old school lei shop. The dranks? Delish. The scenery? Lushhh. Every nook and cranny is just begging to be a background element in those selfies. Working alongside Sweta Patel with owners Ryan Kalei Tsuji, Tara Shimooka, and Jake Johnson, this pet project exemplifies what a space can become when creating something where you and your friends would actually want to hang. But don’t take my word for it…check it out for yourself.
