Hawaii is well known for its beaches, resorts, golf courses and surfing competitions, but Hawaii is also home to several inexpensive bars that host live music and serve delicious, reasonably-priced drinks. Downtown Honolulu has dozens of bars, clubs and pubs that cater to both locals and tourists, and that offer a relaxing atmosphere even when you're on a budget.

The Shack Waikiki
The Shack Waikiki is located on Kuhio Avenue in Honolulu, by Zanzibar and Black Diamond. The Shack offers a wide variety of food and drinks, and boasts a different band each weeknight. The live music gives The Shack a noisy, boisterous atmosphere. When bands aren't performing, customers can enjoy watching sports on the super-sized plasma television screens lining the walls. Metromix Honolulu comments that this is a great place to visit before hitting up the dance clubs located on this street.
