Oahu late night dining
 

My family and I are arriving Sunday May 27 at 11 pm, renting a car, heading to North Shore. Is there a good place to eat late near the airport? Also looking for moped rentals on north shore

Anna Miller's in Pearlridge (I think you'll pass by it on the way to North Shore) is open 24 hours.

You sure you want to eat that late? There is probably a Zippy's along the way, they're all over the island.

If you want something inexpensive & quick, Byron's Drive Inn (24 hours) is only a couple blocks from the airport. Then you can get on H-1 near the airport to H-2 & North Shore.

Anna Miller's (24 hours) is a nicer restaurant.

For Anna Miller's:

Take H-1 West from airport. Exit at Arizona Memorial exit, drive about 3 miles on Kamehameha Highway to the restaurant (at Pearlridge Shopping Center).

To get back on H-1, Make a right from the restaurant (Kaonohi St). Make a left at the stop light (Moanalua Rd). Entrance to H-1 West will be on the right.

For Zippy's:

Same directions as for Anna Miller's except continue on Kamehameha Highway past Pearlridge. There is a Zippy's in Pearl City (about 2 miles past Pearlridge). Use the site that Melissa gave & contact them for the hours they are open.

Melissa, are all Zippy's open 24 hours?

From Zippy's continue on Kamehameha Highway about 1 more mile to H-2 entrance.

I think you are better off trying to get a snack at the airport while waiting for your luggage or going to Byron's.

Both of the other choices (Anna Miller's or Zippy's) will add lots of time.

Personally, if it's a choice between Zippy's and Anna Miller's for a late night meal, Anna Miller's wins out. I have a hard time getting excited about anything on Zippy's menu, but as MelissaHI says, they are everywhere around the island so it's quite easy to find one.

Might think about a couple of small coolers for something extra on the plane. They could be your personal bag or one carryon either way echo Melissa's question.

Remember you will have jetlag. It might be 11pm on the clock, but after getting your luggage and car, it is going to be more like 3am (west coast time) or 6am (east coast time). You might be better off buying some snacks and heading out, or bringing some snacks or sandwiches in a little cooler.

I'm 95% sure all Zippy's are open 24 hours. But as other posters say, it really is a lot better if you bring some snacks in a cooler (and then you can use it during your stay).
