Paʻia’s legendary saloon has been slingin’ suds and pub grub since 1969. In its heyday it was a magnet for visiting rock stars, who often took to the stage. While that scene has moved on (OK, there’s a slim chance that part-time resident Willie Nelson will pop in), this is still the town’s main music venue.

It has dinner music Tuesday to Thursday, DJs and bands Friday and Saturday, and open-mic night Monday. Check the website for the schedule. Full food menu available, from breakfast till 9pm on weekdays, 10pm on weekends.
