Cafe 565

Lanaʻi


This classic yellow plantation house with simple interior design on Dole Park serves burgers and local grinds (food). Choose blackened ono (white-fleshed wahoo), chicken katsu, loco moco (rice, fried egg and a hamburger patty topped with gravy) or a 12in sub sandwich, or make your own calzone. Look out for occasional Filipino specials. The patio is a popular local hangout.
