Foodland Farms Pearl City - Pearl City, Hawaii

Robert Barnes

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

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.

So today we had the best experience at the bar. Mr. Tim even serenaded me because of my birthday. The drinks were delicious great combo customer service and drinks. We did not try the food but we will return.

Service really changed and went downhill.

Just went the other day to pick up a few groceries. Was a pleasant experience and the employess that I met with were friendly and helpful.

When I went to the cash register to pay for my groceries, the clerk at the register was very nice and welcoming. There was another lady "apparently" helping to bag groceries, but she was just standing there having a conversation with another employee and not paying attention to her job. When the cash register clerk asked if I needed a bag, I said "No, thank you as I have a reusable one." and proceeded to give the reusable bag to the bagging area clerk. She hesitated to get the bag almost like she was saying that she wanted me to bag my own groceries. I didn't think nothing of it as it didn't bother me. As I saw the cash register clerk ring up my items very quickly and promptly, the baggage clerk only stood there looking at the items and continuing to talk with her other co-workers. Only when I was about to pay did the baggage clerk start placing the items in my bag VERY SLOWLY one at a time.

By the time I had paid and the register clerk was helping another clerk, the baggage clerk was STILL bagging my items. I only bought 7 items that day and it took FOREVER for her to bag them.

When she finished bagging them, she held up the two handles of my bag and just looked at me with a uninterested look on her face. No words no nothing. I grabbed the two handles she was holding and proceeded to walk out the store only to hear from behind me "Your welcome" I came back with a snarky "Your welcome too" and just walked out of the store. If you want to talk story go do it on your break. Don't hold up the customers as they're the ones paying for the groceries which in turn is paying your paycheck.

I don't know what's so hard to just be a little nice and say "Ok, here you go." The customer service here in the island has really changed here and for the worse. I was very disappointed as it wasn't like this 10 or even 5 years ago.

The sales register clerk was very nice and helpful and if I was just interacting with her I would give Foodland 5 stars, but because of that bagging lady, it soured and ruined my day. That bagging lady should be fired. Just running her mouth and not even doing her simple job.

4/7/2022 I really love the selection of items that are offered here! They have all kinds of to-go food and treats to eat. If you have to go to a get together, come here to pick up everything from poke to peanuts and other savory snacks as well as main courses, salads, and sweet treats! They have all kinds of decorated vanilla, chocolate, and red velvet cupcakes, a wide assortment of cookies, and Rice Krispy treats and bites. I like that they have treats packaged in large containers and small ones because I often want a sweet treat but I don't want to buy a lot since I'll be the only one eating them. The last time I was here, I noticed the cake selection. They had Chantilly, Orange Chiffon, double layered Red Velvet, double layered Guava Chiffon, double layered Carrot cake, double layered Lilikoi, double layered Ube Chantilly, double layered Dobash, and Rainbow Delight. Mini blueberry scones in a pack of 16 are my new faves. I love Foodland Farms!

11/30/2021 I love Foodland Farms! Hubby does not but only because he said it's too crowded and busy for him. Today on the recommendation of my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, I tried the burrito station for lunch. I chose chicken el pastor as my protein. The friendly lady kept asking what else I wanted in my burrito. They have so many items to pick from and you can add whatever they offer! I got peppers & onions, cilantro, rice and beans, corn, black beans, and I forget what else. She also asked if I wanted sour cream, guac, and salsa. I chose salsa verde. While she was building my burrito, another customer was waiting and expressed surprise to me that she kept adding and adding items! It ended up being a huge burrito but she managed to wrap it up neatly. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law told me that they could make two meals out of one burrito. Since I was starving, I managed to eat the whole thing for lunch and didn't eat dinner that night. So delicious! I'll definitely be back for another burrito.

8/10/2021 I had ordered three party trays of garlic soybeans and three dozen yellow Oreo cupcakes for a dinner. It was easy ordering as I went to the bakery and poke section to order both items and paid for them so the pick-up on the day of the dinner would be quicker. The garlic soybeans and Oreo cupcakes were delicious! They have prices and food items for parties listed on their website. The only thing that would make this service better would be that when you pay for the item you receive a receipt with the item, date, and time of pick-up. I just kept my receipt and showed that on the day of pick-up.

8/5/2021 Foodland Farms is fast becoming one of my favorite stores! I needed a chocolate dobash cake and I also picked up a tuberose and carnation lei. They have a great assortment of flowers and leis! The dobash cake was light, fluffy, and not too sweet. I also bought some adorable melamine saimin bowls, a serving spoon, and saimin spoons that were printed with cute spam musubis, and other local food items. I love that Foodland Farms has a lot of "local" items and a section that features them exclusively (close to the refrigerated flower cases). When family and friends visit from the mainland, I can always go to this section and find a gifts for them.

7/3/2021 I stopped by to pick up a dozen of those delicious caramel cupcakes but boo, Foodland doesn't make them anymore. I got yellow Oreo Cookies & Cream cupcakes instead. They were delicious but I was disappointed that they'll no longer have caramel cupcakes.

6/18/2021 I had walked in a few times before, just to browse. They have a huge assortment of groceries! Today I was looking for cupcakes to take to a dinner. Wow! Their cupcakes are nicely decorated. I ended up buying the caramel cupcakes. They were a hit at the dinner. Everyone agreed that they were light, fluffy, and not too sweet. I'm not a fan of frosting but this frosting was delicious and didn't taste oily. A little girl ended up eating 3 cupcakes! Her mom said, 'They must be very good cupcakes because she's picky." Seal of approval!

Poke Bowls at Foodland Farms are always the bomb! Very fresh and flavorful. Great variety of different kinds and flavors. Authentic and delicious. The workers are super friendly. The setup for the Foodland Farms is all similar. This location is super busy but very organized. Parking is adequate.

현대적인 인테리어와 모던한 느낌의 새로 오픈한 푸드랜드입니다. 다양한 푸드코트가 사이드에 자리 잡고 있으며 모든 직원들이 친절하게 손님들을 맞이 해 줍니다. 실내는 매우 깨끗하고 중앙에는 퍼블릭 바가 있고 많은 신선한 야채와 과일들 때끗하게 진열되어 있는 식품들이 이곳을 찾는 손님들에게 기분이 좋은 장소가 될 듯합니다. 하와이에 이런 깨끗하고 모던한 분위기의 쇼핑몰이나 장소가 많이 생기길 바라는 마음입니다. 주차장은 아직 좀 복잡한 편으로 다소 어려움이 있을듯하나 그만큼의 방문할 값어치는 있다고 생각합니다. 꼭 들러서 맛있는 음식도 먹고 식품이나 원하는 쇼핑을 하시기 바랍니다.

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.
