The 24 hour Grab ‘n’ Go is no more

I only learned the official name, The 24 hour Grab ’n’ Go, a couple of weeks ago. The store has always been called “the 24 hour store” by Waikiki locals — as long as I’ve been here anyway.

The Waikiki 24 Hour Store
Sure, it doesn’t look like much, but it was a Waikiki Institution

There has never been a name on the door (or anywhere). It’s just “the 24 hour store”.
