Everyone loves a good burger, whether you’re into beef burgers, vegetarian burgers, whatever it may be – a slab of sustenance put in between two buns and loaded with fresh toppings always creates something magical. We’re big fans of traveling, but we always find our way back to Hawaii, and while you wouldn’t normally think to get a burger in this tropical state – here’s where to get some damn good ones while you’re in Oahu for National Cheeseburger Day!
Seven Brothers has multiple locations, and they serve a mean burger. The photo below speaks for itself! Try the Paniolo burger that has onion rings, grilled pineapple, bacon, American cheese, and BBQ sauce!
Mahaloha has a three locations on Oahu, each one serving up burgers that everyone can enjoy. Try their Loco Moco burger (our favorite) that has an egg and gravy, or even their Mahi Mahi burger!
After a visit or hike around Diamond Head, grab a quick bite to eat at this local spot! Their burgers are delicious, and their menu features twists on a burger such as a Kim chee burger, Teri burger, and more. Don't forget to grab a scone or dessert for after!

Looking to head to the island of Oahu in Hawaii? We wish we could say the same (cough* Steve, give us time-off please cough*) Oahu is a major hub of Hawaii and one of the most visited islands. It’s home to a large amount of heritage and history, features some of the best bites of food you can find, pristine beaches, and even something for the adrenaline junkies. Oahu is small enough for you to get the beach town vibe everywhere you go, but also large enough to host a plethora of activities. We’ve picked out tours for everyone, so read on to find out the Top 10 Tours in Oahu!
On December 7, 1941, the Japanese Empire had attacked Pearl Harbor, resulting in the United States declaring war against Japan. This 5-hour tour will pick you up from your hotel, skip the long lines, and explore the restored Pearl Harbor attraction with a small group. You will learn more about the events that led to the US joining WWII, see the famous USS Arizona Memorial, and visit a few of the most memorable museums.
The Polynesian Cultural Center has been voted as Oahu’s #1 Tourist Destination. Here, you will get to immerse yourself in Polynesian culture and their history. From crafts, way of life, music, food, and even amazing shows, this is a spot you should never miss when visiting Oahu.
