Kickshaws

Poʻipu & the South Shore


This gourmet food truck serves lunch three times weekly at Warehouse 3540. The changing menu features self-taught chef Seth Peterson’s rich, upscale take on classics like pulled pork, fried chicken or ‘colossal cauliflower’ sandwiches, and tuna melts. Look out for Kickshaws at large elsewhere on Kaua‘i, including Sunday evenings at the Princeville's Sunday Night Market.
