~~<p>The timing couldn’t be any better for the opening of REAL a gastropub. School’s out and that means the party starts early and no one needs to get home before last call at the place, now open at Ward Farmers Market next door to Marukai Zakka Avenue.</p>

Pubs like this are routine in college towns across the country, but for Honolulu it’s a long overdue, ambitious undertaking.
