Aloha Crepes & Snow Flakes

The Crepes were all a bit pricey if you ask me even for size. All 9.75 & up. We definitely used the Unilocal discount. I say just go for the snow. So good and tastes like ice cream. My niece got chocolate snow and I wish I had got that instead lol. She gave me bites atleast. Happy Sweets Grindz.

This place is the bomb! Love it here! This is our new favorite place. It’s worth the drive out from Waianae.

I was craving some sweets one night so my friend and I decided to Unilocal desserts and this showed up. We were both first timers so we were a bit lost going there. Parking was really awesome, there’s a lot of slots but maybe it’s because we went at night. When we went in, I was amazed with the amount of choices there was. Since we couldn’t decide on getting either the crêpe or the snow, we got one of each. We got the matcha snow and the Whoa crêpe.
The snow came first and it was really good. I asked for extra condensed milk because I’m in love with that stuff. When the crêpe came, it was SOOOOO good. I rarely eat crepes but damn, that crêpe was really good. We finished both items and left.
Overall, I would come here again if I was having a late night craving. Service was good and the food was amazing.

Their Banana Jammas are to die for. Very convenient stop as you can just call in your order and pick up. The service is fast and great. There are times when it’s crowded but I never eat in so just call, pick up and back on the road. Great place.

Overpriced but the music makes up for it. The food is good though! Li hing gushers need more li hing but what a perk! Food prepped well, clean. Gushers! (Limited seating)

Pleasant experience. Friendly service and our desert crêpe came out quick. I ordered the whoa crêpe with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The fruit was fresh, plenty of filling, a large portion (enough for my husband and I to split) and delicious. Will be back again.

Acai bowl are very yummy! Great food and nice people. The crepes are also amazing. If you are in the area it is a great place to stop. They even let me bring something they didn’t have to add to my crêpe!

They have crepes with many varieties. I ordered a whoa crêpe and it was delicious. They have savory crepes as well. They have snow which was a hybrid between snow cone and ice cream. They have poke bowl which was a tad bit since you can get a good one from a food truck for half the price. They also have available bowl which I hope to try next time.

My husband and I visited Hawaii for a week and we came here TWICE! I love their shaved ice

I actually «discovered» snow here on Unilocal and was determined to try it.
Wow! So many bowls to choose from. We shared the one with coffee and chocolate snow, topped with mochi (some sort of gelatinous drops, kinda like mini marshmallows – they were delectable), sweetened condensed milk, chocolate sauce and caramel. It was scrumptious! My sweetie has a hefty appetite (admittedly, I’m not far behind him), so sometimes I feel like I’m taking a risk in sharing with him because one or both of us could end up feeling less-​than-​satisfied (or I’ll look up and POOF it’ll all be gone). I can confidently say that most people would be okay sharing one of their large bowls (if you’re a modest eater, maybe bring two friends?)
This is an island treat you cannot miss.

I had the Morning Glory breakfast crêpe for lunch! The food is freshly prepared and served hot; a big plus! Beautifully Garnished with fresh fruit.
Tip: It’s hard to decide what to order so come prepared to salivate and vacillate. Sweet and Savory options galore. Bring someone, order two, and swap-​share. Aloha!

Whoa! Desert crepes are DECADENT!
Come hungry…
Didn’t realize they had so many interesting breakfast/​lunch/​dinner choices, too. …and they’re offering a 25% off deal for checking-​in! We’ll be back for sure.

When you’ve lived in Aiea your entire life, you begin to realize that you lack a lot of variety compared to other cities on Oahu. No, you can’t just drive down the street and have over 139,347 different places to choose from. But hey, sometimes you don’t need that!
LOCATION/​PARKING: Aloha Crepes is located in Waimalu Shopping Center. Free parking (although can be crowded) isn’t so bad now since no one wants to drive on Kamehameha Hwy due to rail construction. Beware for some mean steel plates and a bumpy ride! How about a free roller coaster ride and damaged shocks on your car? :P
DEALS: First things first, CHECK IN on Unilocal!You can get discounts on crepes, snow flakes, and acai bowls! Second, if you don’t have Unilocal as an app, be on the look out for Groupon deals! Or if you have an Isle Discount card, use it here! Honestly, I wouldn’t come here and pay regular price because I KNOW there’s a discount somewhere that’s available (although pricing is pretty reasonable). OMG I sound so Chinese. Eh, you know what? I am so what the heck I might as well embrace it! :D The only downside is that some employees don’t know what the restrictions are for each so just read it carefully and rebuttal if necessary :)
FOOD:
Crepes: Well, if you like crepes here you go. I honestly don’t like them cause of the weird texture but at least my crêpe had lots of nutella, bananas, and strawberries! I scooted away the crêpe part of it. They have savory ones too but never tried it since they aren’t exactly my thaaaangg. Prices are about $ 10.95.
Snow: Yum! The first time I tried this from Snow Factory, I was confused… but I liked it. So I tried it again at Aloha Crepes cause lo and behold, I had a coupon :) It was so yummy and you can add all kinds of toppings! It’s NOT shaved ice but more like a milky version of it. Fruity flavors are still yummy on it! If you aren’t a super big eater, you can share a bowl! The large is $ 7.75.
Acai bowl: Really, this is why I come here. Not too many places in ‘Aiea have an acai bowl. Topped with kiwis, pineapples, blueberries, strawberries, and bananas! You have the option for honey or agave! And add almonds for $ 0.75! I’m no acai connoisseur but I really like the variety of fruits. The acai itself really depends on the worker making it. Some days it’s really flavorful, and others not so much. But they always put more than enough fruits, granola, and honey! And you should always get the large ($ 10.25)! But beware, this particular acai might leave you with more than a few leftovers in your teeth if you don’t eat it carefully :) Hehe unless you wanna rock a purple/​black mouth, then by all means, DIG IN!

This is a place i come to every time i have my sweet tooth craving!
They literally have everything you could ever want when craving something sweet!
the snow is the best frozen treat i have ever encountered! I’m not sure what it is made of but it is seriously AMAZING!
FLAVORS: I have personally tried the taro, lihing mui, strawberry and melon. My favorite out of all of them has to be the lihing, the taro is amazing as well it just depends what i am in the mood for! the taro was surprisingly not like what i expected, i am not a fan of taro flavored things, but the snow on the other hand is totally different! it is like a light clean flavor, not to sweet, but just sweet enough to satisfy the craving!
STAFF: Every time i come to this location i have noticed there are always new people working, i rarely ever see the same staff, not sure why but i feel they all do a great job and greet you as you walk in and make the same consistent snow products! They all give the same service which is also okay, they bring your snow to your table and they also give you recommendations on which snow they like.
LOCATION: This location is perfect for me because it right in waimalu shopping center which is right in the middle of pearl city and its conveniently located off farrington Hwy which makes it easy to enter and exit the place, There is a huge parking lot, so i have never had a problem with parking, even tho i did have to park on the other side of the lot a few times! but it was okay cuz i needed to work off some of that sugar anyway! LOL other than that the store is kept clean and organized, there are lots of tables to sit and enjoy your treats, and the place is always so nice and cold inside which is great especially when its 90 degrees outside!
OVERALL: overall this has to be my favorite place to enjoy my guilty pleasures (SUGAR) haha, i love how they also have crepes, which i have only tried once and i had the cookie one which was amazing, but i am just a fan of the snow it self, its a mix between ice crème and shaved ice which is literally my 2 favorite treats!
I have yet to try the acai bowl and the dinner crepes! but I will defiantly be back to try those because they have never disappointed me!

Went in for lunch and the worst struggle was deciding whether I wanted a sweet or savory crêpe. There are so many options and they all looked soooo good. I almost ended up with a snow after drooling over the menu. Anyways, I decided on the Broccoli Obama Alfredo (and added Grilled Chicken)…boy was it delicious!!! Perfect combination of broccoli, asparagus, mushrooms, chicken, and alfredo sauce. I’ll definitely be returning for more of those.
The only thing I would negatively comment on is one of their menu items called the «Olopop.» I don’t take personal offense to it but I don’t think it’s right of them to joke and then have the subheading «The Big Chocolate»…c’mon guys, there’s enough racism and discrimination in the world. PLEASE RENAME.

I usually go to this place for Acai bowls but today was a disappointment. We had a bowl to go and there was little acai and the presentation wasn’t as good as it usually was. They didn’t even cut the kiwi they just put two slice of kiwi on it and the kiwi was spoiled and literally four blueberries. Sounds like I’m being picky, but from the past bowls it was always excellent and today was SUPER disappointment .
I guess it depends on who makes the acai bowls. I suggest if it’s a Haole woman don’t order it bc she was the one that made three of our small acai and one regular acai bowl. Maybe she was in a rush but there was no line and I was the only order they had…
Oh well you win some you lose some.

I’m currently in a love-​hate relationship with this shop.
I got the happy blue strawberry with whipped cream on top.
Don’t get me wrong, my order was great,
but I couldn’t finish it all, it filled the whole plate.
The crêpe batter was thick and chewy,
to my surprise
which I actually really liked
because too-​soft things, I despise.
A few strawberries here, a few blueberries there
some awesome blueberry sauce was drizzled everywhere.
It wasn’t too sour, wasn’t too sweet
If you’re not going to eat dinner, it’s the perfect treat.
Sadly, it bothered me that the price was so high
Nine dollars for batter, fruit and cream? I kind of wanted to cry.
Luckily I wasn’t the one to pay,
So as long as someone else is buying?
I’ll come back any day.~

Teehee.
It’s my 50^th one
so I tried something new.
I hope it was enjoyable.
Thanks for reading my review!

So I really wanted a crêpe but didn’t want to drive all the way to halewia. This is close to the house so decided while my son and I was out and about we would stop by. We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door. They have so many different types of crepes it’s hard to settle on just one. We settled on the aloha Nutella had I known or paid attention I would have said no nuts. It does cost more than the one in halewia but here is way bigger so makes up for the extra in cost. I like how it comes on a real plate it makes it feel homey. I’m def. gonna give it another try and with all the options looks like I have a lot to chose from.

When my inner FAT self is craving for something sweet, you will find me here because I lalalove their banana jamma crêpe (extra everything!) Its a crêpe filled with bananas, topped with Nutella sauce, banana sauce, powdered sugar and whipped cream. It’s soooo delicious that, its all I come in here for! I highly suggest you get it with icecream because it makes it even better. Yummm-​myyy!
Service received was always friendly. so no complaints on that part. As for the place though, it could use some renovations. This place is just too small! Every time I’ve come in here it’s either crowded with no seats, or it gets crowded eventually. It can get pretty claustrophobic and hot. I’m glad that they finally put in a tower fan though, it helped a little.
This place has a variety of Crepes, shaved ice snowflake dessert and Acai bowls to choose from. So with that said. you know that moment when you crave for something cold and refreshing after a long day at the beach, or even something sweet?! This is the perfect place to go! Trust me you won’t be disappointed.

Went here for crepes. But it wasn’t the kind of crepes I’m used to at home, Bay Area .
Tip: crunchy side and ice cream inside the crepes!
But this place not bad :) the food was good.
