[edit] Off campus

[edit] The Coffeeline

• M-F 8am-3pm, S-S 9am-noon
• Inside the YMCA at the corner of Seaview and University
• Great breakfast and lunch fare including eggs, big sandwiches, lasagne, smoothies, soups, salads, etc.
• Good strong coffee and lots of other beverages
• Excellent ambiance, reading material, usually can get wi-fi from the neighborhood, great to study or meet up

[edit] Coffeetalk

• dunno the hours
• on Wai'alae Ave. across from Goodwill and next to BC Burrito
• good caffeine
• colorful characters
• I sat down and contemplated my life.

[edit] University and King

• Magoos - forget the food, but (mostly) cheap beer, huge variety, large pitchers, Newcastle Brown, $10/pitcher
• Eastside Grill - overpriced mostly tasteless food, exception is prime rib on Tuesdays - pricey beer
• Red Lion - mostly tasteless food but decent (somewhat smaller) pitchers, some variety - Guinness and Bass, $8.50/pitcher
• Greek Corner Cafe - decent greek food. somewhat overpriced.
• Curry House - clean environment, good curry. somewhat too corporate.
• India House - excellent South Indian cuisine! a bit overpriced, but definitely worth the price and experience
• Spices -Fresh ingredients, beautiful presentation, and a relaxed atmosphere. A bit overpriced, but definitely a place that needs to be visited at least once while your at UH
• Kokua Market -fresh and organic ingredients. Great price and friendly people.

[edit] Campus Center

[edit] First floor

• Taco Hell
  • "Normal" Taco Bell
• Hot dog vendor outside, very crabby person, not bad dog
• Pizza Hut express

[edit] Second floor

• Cafeteria with Yummy's, sushi to go, grill, plate lunches, something similar to Panda Express
• Jamba Juice (smoothies) - almost same as all other Jamba Juice's
  • Does not accept Jamba Cards, does accept credit/debit and meal plan.
• Starbucks (some sandwiches and muffins) -- not really Starbucks but serves their coffee, doesn't take Starbux cards
• Subway - normal Subway, does not accept meal plans.

[edit] Hemenway Student Union

• Baile (formerly Manoa Gardens, and still widely known by that name)
  • Decent sandwiches, Pho, some fried snacks, beers & mixed drinks, food and beverages until around 8pm
  • What's up with no chips all tha time?

[edit] Shidler College of Business

• Coffee and sandwich kiosk, not open much past 6pm

Kuykendall "Cube" (between KUY, GEO, and SAK)

• Hare Krishna food
• Ono Pono (organic foods bagels burritos etc.) -- recently closed, what is there now?

Biomedical Building

• Local Food: Cheap, give plenny,and taste good. Get all kine foods: pork adobo, beef teriyaki, beef steak, chow fun, beef stew...

POST building (the one with the turquoise windows)

• Golden River Catering/ Lunch Truck

• Local Food: Cheap and taste good. Get one bento box for $5: spam, teri beef, fried chicken, one scoop rice, and a drink (all for $5).

[edit] Dorms

• Aloha cafeteria
• Cafe is littered with tasteless and unhealthy food. Attempts to make healthy food are rushed. You leave here with a sense that this buffet will only result in a horrific case of diarrhea or early stages of hypertension and diabetes
• Convenience store (hours?) -- usually open till midnight.
