Mom off to Oahu next month, advice anyone?

My Mom, 80, is vacationing in Oahu March 6 - 20 with her bf :) and if there still tiki restaurants/bars she could visit, I'd love to hear about 'em. Also, are there any good places to scrounge for things tiki, like Goodwill etc near Waikiki? Long shot I know, but she'd like to pick stuff up for me and my brother if possible. She'll be renting a car too and will roam the island.

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

Obviously La Mariana Sailing Club. They were going strong last times we were there. The food while always decent before may have gotten better. Gift shop, too.

There's a Salvation Army on the main drag between the airport and Waikiki - we've pulled a couple artifacts out of there over the years. Usually a fine selection of rattan furniture - probably from people who gave up and moved away. Goodwill in Kaimuki, not too far east of Waikiki isn't bad. Was in there once when an employee rolled out a couple crates of vintage Hawaiian records for a couple of locals to pick through before putting the rest out. Found a Mai Kai mug at Goodwill on Kamehameha Highway in Pearl City.

Tin Can Mailman in Chinatown is a nicely curated shop of vintage Hawaiiana. Not cheap. Phil Roberts took us to a junk shop along the highway in town that had some stuff. I'll post the address if I can find their card.

Thanks TT! I hope she’ll make it out to La Mariana, I know they have some nice mugs I wouldn’t mind having. Great tips on all the other stuff, will definitely pass it on and watch this thread if you’d like to find that address.

Mahalo,
