Armed Services members get special military discounts at Waikiki Beach Walk


May is a big month for members of the US Armed Services, with the internationally celebrated VE Day on May 8; the National Armed Forces Day on May 21, and of course, Memorial Day, this year falling on May 30.
 
Being next to Fort DeRussy and the US Army Museum of Hawaii, the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies, the Armed Forces Recreation Center and of course, the Hale Koa Hotel has meant Waikiki Beach Walk has always had a special relationship with the military.
 
And our military discounts specifically for members of the Armed Services makes this relationship even more special, and a way for us to demonstrate how much we appreciate the members of our Armed Forces.
 
With our superb selection of fine restaurants, unique boutiques brimming with art, gifts and adventure, Waikiki Beach Walk has been a “go to” place for our Military to collect great memories of their time in Hawaii.

SAVORY SPECIALS FOR SERVICE MEMBERS

Giovanni Pastrami

There’s an old saying that an army marches on its stomach, and if that’s the case, our US Army (along with every other branch) will be having a parade to Waikiki Beach Walk for some delicious, specially priced dining discounts for military.

If you’re looking for a great pastrami or Rueben sandwich (and really, who isn’t?), you need look no further than Giovanni Pastrami New York Deli. Your first clue of its greatness is that you have to be pretty proud of your pastrami when it’s in the name of the restaurant itself.
 
But it doesn’t end there. Giovanni Pastrami also features thick New York-style deli sandwiches, 1/2-pound burgers, Round Table Pizza, fresh pastas, and much, much more. Throw in entire walls covered with hi-def, 4K TVs all dialed into sports of all kinds to make it one of the best sports bars in Waikiki.
 
Add (or rather, subtract) a 15% military discount for service members, and you’ve got some pretty sweet marching orders.
