Honolulu Cookie Company

I kept stopping in to sample the various cookies they had available to sample. All the cookies were good, so I had a hard time trying to decide which ones to get. The place really gets pack as others are sampling the cookies too! Lol!
But when I finally decided which cookies to purchase it was all worth it! *sigh of relief* because I won’t continue to add the cookie pounds!
The chocolate chip macadamia was buttery, light and just the right amount of nuts to chocolate chips ratio. You can taste that the cookie was fresh. I also got the chocolate dipped cookie, that was even better. Actually, the staff said that’s their #1 Cookie. The chocolate was so good, cross between milk and dark chocolate. But same buttery — light flavor.
You can buy the cookies in boxes, canister or individuals, as mixed cookies or individual cookies.

Delicious shortbread cookies with a number of dried fruit and chocolate dipped options. The cookies easily fit in the palm of your hand are a bit pricey, but a nice treat while on the island.

I have always enjoyed HCC’s cookies. They are small but so tasty and come shaped like Pineapples. They have a variety of flavors they come in. You can sample them before trying which makes choosing your favorites pretty easy. I have been taking them home for years now and since this visit is coming to an end the HCC ritual was required.
We were sampling a few when my brother found a small sample cup so we didn’t have to put them in our hands. That was the first time I had seen that being offered. I was glad I didn’t have to put the samples in my hand. He joked that it was too small and saw a funnel cup for water. I shouldn’t have dared him but the next thing I know he is filling the funnel cup with samples. I almost fell over laughing. The young ladies working behind the counter looked over to see what was going on. I am trying not to laugh as loud so we won’t cause a scene. My wife fortunately did not pay attention to what was happening as she would have killed us both.
I then went over to the wife to help select the little treats to take home for our daughter. We picked out her favorites and paid the young lady behind the counter. The white chocolate ones, mango and coffee ones are our favorites. We explained we love their cookies and always get them when we come to Hawaii. She then hands us a business card showing where they are located. Funny thing they have a location in our hometown of Vegas at the Venetian. We laughed and told her we were from the ninth Island and she quickly said — wow your from Vegas. She then went to the back and gave us a HCC small plastic handle bag and four broken cookies. Not sure if she felt sorry for us or felt a kinship with us.
Once outside my wife saw my brother with the funnel cup with a few pieces of the samples left. She laughed so hard she almost fell over. We were all dying laughing and people walking by us were staring wondering if we were crazy orjust having too much fun.
So if you don’t live in Vegas then HCC is a must stop to take home some tasty unique cookies your family will love. For those in Vegas tough it out and head to the strip and get your fix of HCC cookies whenever you need too.

There are a handful of samples you could try in the store. I was surprised that I actually enjoyed these. Some are better than others. I highly recommend the chocolate chip, any cookie with kona coffee, and the pineapple one. Any cookie with the chocolate dipped is decent too but can be overly sweet. My husband liked the simple shortbread version, but I think those tasted similar to the cookies you get in a tin. Definitely recommended to visit at least one of these stores to try it out! They are a bit pricey, but worth bringing back home some for your friends and family at home.

Very crowded little shop at this location but I still received great customer service when I came in. First, the store was organized and clean. Secondly, all of the staff were professional and welcoming, and they had many samples for customers to try. I was assisted by Janice. It was kind of hard to decide with the different variety of cookies and sizes (their boxes were so pretty too!). Anyway, Janice was soooo patient with me (I often take a long time deciding on what to get for myself… not to mention relatives & friends) and helped me pick out the cookies to bring home. Overall, I had a positive experience at the store and everyone loves these cookies so I will come back next time I visit the island.

There are quite a few Honolulu Cookie Companies in Waikiki. I may have stumbled around 3 – 4 different ones during my stay in Honolulu. This location is the one where I actually made my purchase, but every single location that I’ve set foot in was the same — super friendly and helpful staff, free samples of different assortments of cookies, and same cute and fun atmosphere!
Now on to the cookies — definitely try their free samples to see what you prefer! I personally really liked the dark chocolate kona and the lilikoi (passion fruit). They’re all boxed in a variety of different assortments and sizes, and perfect for souvenirs for anyone! Prices are decent, not cheap, but not too crazy. Docking one star just because when I look at their ingredients, it has a whole lot of stuff I’d really rather they didn’t.

Everyone loves the pineapple-​shaped cookies with the fruit in the middle!
Their shortbread cookies are very tasty and buttery! :) Lots of packaging options to choose from along with an array of flavors. They have samples through out the store. I think my all time favorite has got to be the shortbread with pineapple fruit in the middle. If you spend a certain amount starting at $ 50, you get a free gift (which is just some more free cookies!). Great place to pick up cookies to bring back for your family and friends.

Honolulu Cookie Company is practically on every block in Waikiki. All the flavored are worth trying, and they let you too. The only thing that makes each store unique is the staff and by far this location has the friendliest!

The cookies are delicious and they have great customer service! I can see why they are highly rated. My friend accidently dropped his cookies and they checked to see if any were cracked so they can happily replace them (i repeat. HAPPILY replace them). You can’t beat their customer service. nor their cookies! I wish they were in CA, but only having these cookies in certain locations make them even more special. They also make great souvenirs!

Damn good cookies! Tons of options and they provide all sorts of boxes/​packaging. Their water dispenser has the most refreshing water on the Waikiki strip! I love the samples and wish I had more room for more. You have to be sure to get their frequent buyer stamp card. The more you buy and trust me — you will, you’ll earn free cookies! The Kona Chocolate is my favorite. My wife bought a box which we will probably finish before we head home.

I came in tonight and was given great service and hospitality by employees Karlyn and Janice. Both were very friendly and patient. I ordered two items that I planned to send by delivery. Although I took a bit of a long time, Karlyn insisted that I took my time and made sure all the information was correct. All in all, there was good service, a lot of available samples, and suggestions/​help was given to all customers by all employees.

Similar to all the other Honolulu Cookie Company’s in Hawaii.
Employees are friendly and helpful. Free samples are available, help yourself. The store is neat and clean. Lots of cookie options and they are all so tasty. Not too sweet, buttery, and fresh. I love that their cookies are individually wrapped. Some of my faves are the Kona Coffee and Dark Chocolate ones. These cookies are on the pricier side but you pay for the quality.

It reminds me of Famous Amos with a twist of flavors.
I’m not a cookie person, and I like the flavor such as Kona coffee and dark chocolate dipped macadamia nut
The cookie is pricey, almost $ 1 per cookie.
If you are a cookie person, you may like them. Otherwise, it’s too pricey for Cookies.

They give sample pieces of all of their flavor a so you are not buying the blindly. We first bought a box of 20 but they disappeared quickly my son devoured them so we had to go back and get more. The family favorite was the chocolate dipped macadamia nut cookie

This cookie place is so good!!! We went in and sampled a few different ones and I ended up falling in love with the chocolate dipped cookies, their best seller. I bought a few as gifts to bring home! They are amazing. Plus there are so many to sample. You will find something you will like!

My sister had brought me some cookies when she visited Hawaii a while ago. I’m not a big cookie person so I just thought they were OK at the time. I don’t recall the flavors. When I went to Hawaii, I came in the store to get cookies for my sister, my family, and a few friends. The only cookies I’ll eat are chocolate chip cookies so when I tasted the chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie, I was hooked. I bought some boxes to take back home. They had samples of the other flavors. I had tasted a few of them. I didn’t want to be that fatty to taste all 15 flavors. I’m glad they opened a store in Vegas and they are opening a second location. Man, those chocolate chip macadamia cookies are addicting!
The employees are nice and helpful each time I visited. I’m not going to lie. I stopped by a few times during my vacation.

We frequented many Honolulu Cookie Co. shops on our recent trip to Waikiki. The stores offered many different samples of their cookie flavors. My son loved all of them. We purchased ready made box for gifts, and my son enjoyed picking his own flavors and filling up a box. I loved all the shortbread cookies without chocolate. My son loved all the ones with chocolate. Very delicious cookies.

These pineapple shape cookies are so yummy! We stayed at the Outrigger Hotel next door and from day one after visiting, we were addicted to these buttery, sugary treats.
The staff was very hospitable and friendly. They didn’t seem to mind that we came in regularly to get free samples of their cookies. Mostly while we waited to pickup our car at the parking valet, we would quickly run inside and swipe a few cookies for the road. The large sample jars were all laid out in front for everyone to try and refilled regularly with fresh ones.
All cookies were good, but we loved the macadamia and chocolate covered ones the most. Here are my recommended choices —
Butter Macdamia — Good
Pineapple Macadamia — Good
Coconut Macadamia — Good
Dark chocolate Lilikoi — Good
Chocolate Chip Mini Bites — Good
White Chocolate and Dark Chocolate Coconut — OMG yes!
Dark chocolate dipped macadamia — OMG yes!
On our last day at Hawaii, we bought several large gifts boxes of pre-​packaged and customized sets to take home for friends and family. The cookies were individually wrapped to stay fresh and crisp. Though a bit pricey, they were worth every crumb. Everyone loved them and we received lots of praises and compliments. A definite must when you’re in Honolulu. I can’t wait to come back!
Tip — Buy them here before your trip back to mainland because they’re more expensive at the airport.

I wandered into this shop because I was looking for gifts to bring back home. The employee behind the counter greeted me with a friendly hello and came out to explain to me about the cookies and the free samples, like which were popular. I thanked her and began sampling the samples. The ones I tried were so yummy! I kept on wanting to eat them, but resisted because there was a message about that.
I looked around for a cookie option for my gifts and chose the box with 6 flavors and 18 cookies total. They were pretty well priced and when I gave them to the people they were intended for, they loved them.
Also, good news, I hear Honolulu Cookie Company is opening up some locations in Vegas. Score!

Pretty damn good cookies!!! I wish they would open up once in California.
My fav was the chocolate dipped macadamian and the dark chocolate one. Go in and sample some of the different types.
Also, it makes a great gift. I got my mom a box :)
