About

Fun Factory at Kahala Mall is the east Honolulu outpost of the Oahu Fun Factory chain, serving families in the Kahala, Diamond Head, and Hawaii Kai areas. As an arcade and amusement center inside one of Honolulu's most upscale shopping centers, it occupies a natural niche: a convenient entertainment stop for families already at Kahala Mall for shopping or dining.

The format is classic arcade: a card-based credit system, video games ranging from classics to modern redemption machines, and a ticket prize counter that reliably motivates younger kids. For families who visit the Ala Moana or Kamehameha locations of Fun Factory, credits carry over — a practical benefit for repeat visitors to multiple Oahu locations.

Kahala Mall's dining scene is better than most malls — Whole Foods Market and several sit-down restaurants provide solid options for a family meal to bookend the arcade visit. Sunday hours close at 7PM, which is earlier than the other days of the week.

For east Honolulu families, Fun Factory Kahala is the local fallback for indoor entertainment on rainy days or when the kids need a break from beach time.
