This darn thing is delicious. It looks like more to eat than it really is. You’ll finish it off quickly. But, you could share it.

Wishing Well Shave Ice is a must-visit spot when visiting Hanalei. The shave ice here was one of our favorites from our trip! They have regular and organic flavor options for your shave ice in addition to a variety of ice creams if you'd prefer...ice cream over shave ice. Either way, you really can't go wrong. Their setup is adorable. They serve basically out of what appears to be a parked food truck with a roof that has an overhang. There are picnic tables with umbrellas where you can sit and enjoy your shave ice, and next door is their coffee shop, although we didn't check it out ourselves. We both tried the pina colada shave ice and just fell in love. It was so delightful, delicious, and refreshing. I can't imagine visiting Hanalei without stopping here on our way in or out of town :)More
I had Pina Colada and my wife had Coconut & Ginger. If you are hot and thirsty from walking on the beach or whatever, this is the ticket. My wife appreciated “organic”!
This place has the best shave ice. Little establishment at the side of the road with umbrella covered tables. I don’t remember which one I ordered, but you can’t go wrong with any of them. Considering how busy this place is, you receive your shave...ice quickly. It should be a definite stop if you are in the area.More
It's definitely the best Shave Ice on Kauai. We have tried them all and visit the Wishing Well many times when we visit Kauai. Make sure to have Macadamia Nut ice cream in the bottom of your bowl. There again, best on Kauai.
I think I got the local and it was delicious! Some of the best shave ice on the island I've had!
We had Shave Ice each day on our trip but this one was THE BEST! Hands down! We ate here three times. They have the most delicious concoctions and we loved sitting at the picnic table underneath huge canopy shade trees. Great atmosphere
We were so blown away by this place we came back four times! The flavors were so intense and unbelievable. Huge portions, creative menu. And service with a smile! No matter how long the line was they always greeted us with a smile and were...very patient when we were ordering. We'd come back to Kauai just to go back to Wishing Well.More
We have tried various Shave Ice places throughout the island on this and prior trips. The Wishing Well is so much better than everywhere else. I am almost afraid to post this because I don't want the line to be too long next time we...are in Kauai!More
This is our family's favorite shave ice on Kauai. They offer organic options too! The line can be long - because it's good - but it is worth the wait! There is plenty of shade and picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy the...shave ice. I highly recommend trying it out. We were on Kauai for two weeks and we must have gone eight times. Delicious!More
This is one popular place with a seemingly perpetual long line outside! The shaved ice offerings, after a long wait, were worth the wait. Da bomb: root beer, cherry, vanilla ice cream with condensed milk, was the star. What I loved most was the healthy,...creamy green concoction I got from the coffee shack further back from the truck. Turned out Slow Yourself Down was part of the WW enterprise, offering clothing merchandise besides beverages. The cozy, laid back vibe was calming, long queue out front notwithstanding.More
Classic Hawaiian shave ice. Love the building, the setting, and the shave ice. $6 for a classic shave ice. Obviously lots of add ons to bump up the price if you like. Only criticism is the Cherry. Both of my children did not enjoy. It...tasted very medicinal/artificial. Gotta do it when on the north shore.More
Sure it's just a shack/trailer next to the road with handmade signs and crude picnic table seating...but try the flavored shaved ice over ice cream with sweet condensed milk on top, and you won't care WHAT it looks like. I highly recommend "Da Bomb"!
Worth the 15 min wait this shaved ice was the real deal. We have tried a few others while on vacation. While flying here a couple on the plane told us about this place then reading on line we also seen the reviews.
Delicious! Tried others and only got flavored ice for same price. Daughter loved the condensed milk on top and ice cream at the bottom.
