Hawaiian Bros Celebrates Its New Location in Manhattan, Kansas
Hawaiian Bros has made another leap in its expansion journey by opening its very first island-inspired franchise in Manhattan, Kansas. This marks the third restaurant inaugurated by the Ohana Restaurant Group, following the successful debut in Wichita just last month. With so much excitement building around this new establishment, the grand opening event scheduled for December 9, 2024, is expected to draw in crowds eager to experience the unique flavors of Hawaii.
Celebration Plans and Community Engagement
To kick off the grand opening, Hawaiian Bros will host a festive celebration at its new location, situated at 325 East Poyntz Avenue. The event will commence at 11 a.m., with the first 100 patrons in attendance receiving a complimentary Hawaiian Bros t-shirt and a gift card valued between $25-$500 with their purchase. To further entice attendees, a lucky winner will be drawn to win Hawaiian Bros for an entire year!
Before the grand opening, on December 7, there will be a special VIP event designed to honor local heroes. First responders, healthcare professionals, educators, students, and employees of local businesses will be invited to enjoy a delicious classic Plate Lunch for free from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. This act of appreciation is a testament to Hawaiian Bros' commitment to its community.
Zach Fugate, the owner of Ohana Restaurant Group, expressed his enthusiasm over reaching another milestone. He mentioned, "We’re over the moon to have successfully opened our second Kansas location this year. Our first opening in Wichita was so well received last month. We’re eager to continue our expansion and momentum in Manhattan and look forward to future growth in Kansas." This sentiment reflects the brand's adaptability and hands-on approach to catering to local preferences and demands.
New Menu Highlights
Beyond just a new location, Hawaiian Bros is introducing scrumptious additions to its menu that promise to delight customers. Among these is the
Keiki Meal, a kid-friendly option served with a portion of the fan-favorite Huli Huli Chicken alongside rice, pineapple, a beverage, and even a mini Dole Soft Serve ice cream, garnished with a sticker as a charming touch for young diners.
Additionally, customers will now find delicious wraps that marry the sweet and savory Hawaiian flavors into a convenient wheat wrap. Signature wraps include the Pacific Island Wrap, Huli Huli Wrap, and Molokai Mac Wrap, each offering a unique blend of ingredients that highlights the Hawaiian culinary tradition.
Experience Island Flavors
What sets Hawaiian Bros apart is its focus on delivering authentic island flavors without unnecessary complexity. The renowned Plate Lunch is celebrated for its variety of marinated chicken or pork drenched in sweet, savory, or spicy sauces, served alongside creamy macaroni salad and a fluffy rice bed or vegetables. For dessert, there’s the iconic Dole Soft Serve, promising a quick escape to the islands with each bite.
With no fryers, microwaves, or freezers in sight, Hawaiian Bros prides itself on serving the freshest ingredients. This model sets it apart in the fast-casual dining sector, positioning it as a unique dining option in the Kansas culinary landscape.
