Unique find in the back of Waialua coffee store (which had miscellaneous gift items) - super tiny - it seems like it is in portion of a shipping container. A totally different vibe from all the touristy items in the Waialua coffee store. The shop owner is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Her husband is the surfboard shaper around the corner. Cool finds included classic 60-70s Hawaii aloha shirts, dresses and accessories.

I love magical places like these. It's a bit hard to find since it was off into the distance of where we were in the parking lot, at the old Waialua Sugar Mill. This location is rich with history, and it's befitting that this little antique shop is sitting in the middle of an area that goes back in time. I am old enough to remember the Waialua Sugar Mill burning cane back in the 90's as I drove to Mokuleia Beach and seeing black debris of flying burnt sugar cane drift across my car windshield, along with smoke. The mill closed down in 1996 then became abandoned over time, then opened back up with new shops and little local stores, like this one. It's a very tiny store, no bigger than a small studio, but has a variety of really nice antiques crammed with vintage Pyrex, glassware, clothing, Pan-Am bags, hat boxes, costume jewelry, and anything else you care to explore. The owner Etsuko is super friendly and we spent a while discussing vintage clothing, barware, jewelry and the finer things that were important in life in the days when things were meant to last and not fall apart after a season of use. I'm already wondering when I can go back to visit, as I had a great time there. The hours vary, so call before you go at (808) 778-5332.

Super cute vintage shop in the Waialua Sugar Mill complex of markets, also the home to JC Hawaii custom surfboards. Cool assortment of Hawaii memorabilia, including men and women’s clothing. The owner is so nice and friendly - while chatting her up I mentioned I’m from Guam and she gave me a vintage Guam keychain with my purchase. A great stop to check out if you’re in the North Shore, especially if you’re a tourist and want to pick up something unique to remember the islands by.

Cute little shop that brings you down memory lane. Went with a group of friends and had fun being reminded of being "back in the day". A few of us bought some items. The owner stayed open past closing talking story. If you're out in that neck of the woods, go check it out.

Wish I could bring all the items home! Such a wonderfully curated shop. I got a set of 4 cups from the 70s. (Ones on the left).

The lady working in this shop literally ripped off a tag from a dress I was interested in buying and told me it was more expensive because she assumed she could get more money out of me. I have NEVER experienced anything like this in my life~ DO NOT SHOP HERE!!!

This is now my all time favorite place to stop for vintage treasures on Oahu! It's a smaller shop but has lots of hard to find clothing and household items all mostly pre 80s. The shop owner is awesome, friendly and knows her stuff!

This is now my all time favorite place to stop for vintage treasures on Oahu! It's a smaller shop but has lots of hard to find clothing and household items all mostly pre 80s. The shop owner is awesome, friendly and knows her stuff! So happy to see this in Waialua and so near to Haleiwa. A definite must stop if your visiting Oahu or live here and love vintage. It's kinda towards the back right of the lot so look for signs so you don't miss it.
