Any Place Cocktail Lounge - Honolulu

A visit to the rock wouldn't be complete without a visit to one of my favorite bars! Met up with the Hawaii posse, and decided on somewhere low key just to drink. But I had to have my super duper combo...grilled cheese, BLT, Spam and egg, and hamburger sandwiches on one platter!!! We also had the poke, wings, really good fish and chips, and lechon. Drinks were excellent! Nice pours at a reasonable price! Love hanging out with the locals! The staff is always friendly! Mahalo!

First of all congratulations on the new location! This is my OG of OG and gosh how cool and spacious is their new spot though on the flip side parking is now the biggest challenge. I totally love the vibe here as it's super huge in comparison of their smaller former space it's incredible how many tv's they also got as there will never be a fear of missing out no matter where you're sitting. As soon as you step in there's a white board filled with specials and the one that caught our eyes was the Laulau plate...yum! Their regular menu is filled with all things we love like Spam Egg, Fried Noodles, Kal Bi, Lechon even Vienna sausage. We did order the Laulau plate along with Garlic Soybeans, Chicken Wings, and yup Saimin! Everything was super good and just how I like it feels like home and comfort foods. The staff here is just so friendly and constantly checking up on us and all the tv's was just a great disconnect to a forced conversation lol! Nice and spacious to brings groups of all sizes to enjoy whatever the occasion brings Anyplace is the the place to be! Thank you!

There was a time when an open tab meant your server put a pitcher on your table and everyone threw in a $20 letting the server help themselves with each successive round. Pitcher empty, everyone throw in another $20. A time when your choice was a brown bottle or a green one with or without a bucket of ice. A time where the fried chicken, kalbi, fried noodles were free as long as you kept drinking. Kamigata 's, Flamingo 's Waipahu, Shinsho Tei, and yes, Anyplace. The food is not free anymore but if you love the old school taste, it delivers. Kalbi, grilled, sweet soy goodness. Obachan 's fried chicken , incredibly crisp skin, juicy interior with the home cooked taste. Old school bacon fat laden fried rice, win! Cheap beer. Nothing fancy unless you consider Kona Longboard on tap fancy. Heavy pours of dive bar standard drinks (kamikaze anyone? . Incredibly friendly service with an unexpected tech twist. Your orders are taken on an iPad. Great place to watch a game with well placed large screens everywhere. A true come as you are, local dive bar that brims with the feeling of mutual understanding and belonging you only get from those who grew up in Hawaii.

My cuz picked me up around 9:15 in Waikīkī, and we arrived at nearby Anyplace around 9:30ish. Unfortunately, it was a Thu and it was last call. Nonetheless, we enjoyed a beer and cocktail at the bar from the nice bartender. I peeked at tbe menu, and it looked like they had good food. My cuz confirmed the foregoing. The ambiance is very casual, and is atypical of local joints in Hawai'i. Most people were locals and you could feel the Aloha. I'll have to come back on a Fri or Sat when they stay open til midnight. I'd like to sample some pupus (apps) while enjoying a reasonably priced drink.

Anyplace Cocktail Lounge is quickly becoming our favorite place to go for a really ono, reasonably priced meal with friendly service and a fun, casual dining experience. So far, over 4 separate visits, we have completely enjoyed their chopped salad, laulau plate, Super Duper combo sandwich (spam egg, hamburger, grilled cheese, BLT), lumpia, Chinese steamed fish, lechon, fried noodles, vegetable plate, cold tofu and a St. Patty's special, shepherd's pie! They have tables for big groups and for smaller intimate diners. They have karaoke, darts and lots of TVs for sports and news, plus they have food and drink specials. Love love love! Thank you, Judy and staff, we have enjoyed each and every visit, and we think of you first when we pick a place to bring our friends or even just the two of us. I need to try your Obachan fried chicken still! We will be back soon! I'm
