Foodland Farms Pearl City - Pearl City, Hawaii

The most impressive Foodland I have ever seen. I really like Foodland, but this place is massive. It has the feel of a whole foods with all the open deli, bakery different made to order food places, even a bar that serves alcohol. Everything you can think of that Foodland has, but just displayed and presented very elegantly

This Foodland the BEST!!!
I’ve been to the other Foodlands and this place has the best cold food and hot food. The hot food is so good it runs out fast on Fridays. I don’t care how long I have to wait for my favorite chinese steam fish. Mahalo to all the cooks and servers who keep all their customers happy. Keep up the good work and ono food

I went to Foodland Farms Pearl City on its Grand opening day, and it was crazy. There were a lot of people waiting for the door to open, and it took me probably 20 minutes to walk from the parking lot through the store doors.

Once inside, the store is large, probably larger than the old location near Daiei. On the left side of the store, there was the checkout areas and grocery aisles, while on the right side, there was the fresh-made food area: a Burrito Station (which you're able to make Burritos and Tacos) a Sandwich Station, and a self-service food bar, with a variety of foods from your hot main dishes to sides and even a salad bar. Towards the back, there was a Poke bar. In the middle, there's an alcohol bar.

The staff here is so friendly. I was looking for a particular brand of soda, and an employee helped me find it (it was in the next aisle from where we originally looked) and every employee answered my questions and concerns with aloha.

I know it was the grand opening for the store, and I'll come back at a later time to explore the store with less crowds, but to me, the move was worth it for Foodland.

Went to Foodland in May 2024 and they didn’t have hot food bars. Now they do. This is a game changer to me because if you want options before your flight, not a bad way to go for a hot meal without breaking the bank.

The wife and I made plates of cheesy omelets, corn beef, longanisa, Portuguese sausage, etc. came out to around $10/box.

Our flight was at 9am, was able to swing by around 7am, in time to drop off the car rental and get through TSA with time to eat.

Highly recommend if you want options before your flight.

Stopped by after a recommendation for poke and was not disappointed! It was my first time trying poke and the workers explained how everything worked and I was able to sample everything I was interested in. You are able to eat in the store once you checkout, you just have to ask for utensils from the cashier! Ended up getting the California roll poke and oyster sauce ahi along with some Hawaiian sun from the store.

Great place for all your grocery needs. This location also has an American Savings Bank, Seafood Counter for Poke Bowls and Deli. Not the largest of Foodland stores but it has a great location in Pearl city with plenty of Parking.

Wow! Today was our first trip out to Foodland Farms Pearl City and it was an eye opening experience, to say the least. Not only does this store carry the usual inventory as the other Foodland stores but they also have a lot of other items other Foodland stores do not have the space to stock. Unlike regular Foodland stores Foodland Farms Pearl City has a butcher department that stocks the best cuts of beautiful cuts of meat, smoked meats, and some pre-made shish kabobs and burger patties all ready to toss on your hot grill. They also have a fish department called the Fishmonger that sells fresh fish, fresh octopus, shellfish, scallops, sashimi, and even tentacles!

Another unusual feature for a store is a bar that sells liquor and invites people to sit down and have a cold drink after a hard day's work. The wide selection of Poke offers a fantastic variety of pupus to go along with the drink of your choice. The Poke counter has 3 sections as opposed to just one section like most of the regular Foodland stores.

I also noticed their selection of fresh lei is much larger than other stores and the fresh cut flowers and potted plants make nice impromptu gifts or a decoration for your table or patio.

I was also impressed with the wide variety of bentos. The display featured a beautiful selection of bento combinations that is sure to please the pickiest eater.

Another surprise are the bulk natural foods such as nuts, dried fruits, seeds and cereals reminiscent of Whole Foods and Down To Earth Natural foods. Indeed the bentos reminded me of Shirokiya. It seems like the planning and foresight that went into this Foodland Farms was well thought out in anticipating the needs and interest of potential customers.

There are several counters of prepared ready to eat foods that again reminds me of Whole Foods and Down to Earth. I believe they charge $8.99 per pound so you just select the foods you want and it is weighed at the check stand when you checkout. With the number of choices you'd be able to eat several meals if you took only a tablespoon of each type of food they offer.

Their organic produce section is also a lot larger and neatly arranged. I didn't bother taking many photos of the items normally offered at Foodland stores but focused mainly on the unusual "extras" this Foodland location offers. We wish we lived closer to this Foodland because we'd definitely shop here a lot. Visiting Foodland Farms Pearl City was a surprising and satisfying treat for us. You will find a bunch of happy employees who help you with a smile. The energy in the store is really clean and positive. Do yourself a favor and stop by Foodland Farms Pearl City when you are in the area and have an extra hour to meander through the aisles. Take a shopping cart because you'd be hard pressed not to walk out with anything in your cart.

Aloha from da BIGpake; so I must say that FOOLAND has stepped thier game recently and made the shopping experience one that makes you want to leave with freshly made meals, sushi, musbi, fried chicken and than leave with wine, bear or your favorite spirit. The staff is always super inviting , and just plain sweet. They all say hi sir and yes mam. And the place is so clean and neat.
