    Red, white, and blue marlin with coconut taro, beet kraut butter, forget me not. My favorite course!
    Elizabeth M.

    If you are ever looking to have a truly special meal that will likely take its place on your "best ever" top 5 list, I can almost guarantee that you will find it at Maui Bees. One of our local friends suggested that we all make a reservation for the Friday night farm-to-table dinner experience during our trip. It was easy to book on the website and note any dietary limitations during the reservation process. Prior to our visit, we received a call from Beau to confirm, who also noted that he would be our waiter for the evening. He said the farm is BYOB, so we picked up a few bottles of sparkling apple cider from the grocery store to enjoy with our meal. We arrived shortly before 4:00 and parked in the lot. I checked in at the gift shop, and Beau came out to meet us. He took us on a lovely tour of the "bee museum" where we learned more about bee behavior and searched for the queen in the wall panel hive. (We found her!) We also strolled through the sections of the farm to hear more about the sustainable cultivation process and got to say hello to two goats! When the tour had concluded, Beau brought us to a gorgeous long table to begin the meal. (He said he made the cute flower arrangements on the table, too!) Since it was just the six of us, we had a truly personalized experience. (I believe only 12 can book the dinners each Friday night, so even if others are there, it will still be very intimate.) At each place were menu cards so we knew what to expect for each of the mouthwatering 7 courses. Chef Katarina Tualemoso warmly welcomed all of us before the meal. It wasn't long until Chef Katarina and Beau brought the first course to the table: a crostini with apples, goat cheese, toasted mac nuts, Tahitian gooseberries, and summer honey. I know many places will say that their food is fresh, but these ingredients were clearly newly harvested and prepared shortly before arriving to our plates. This crostini was epically tasty, and we knew we were in for an amazing meal. Beau provided excellent service throughout the dinner, and even treated us to a few surprises along the way. (I'm not going to post any spoilers!) Our other courses were avocado and arugula salad, calabaza bisque, marlin, deconstructed GF gnocchi, venison (I had ahi instead), and mango citrus olive oil cake. I'll post a picture of the full menu for descriptions. Three standouts for me: the dragonfruit with the salad was so fresh. I am ruined for dragonfruit forever, as no dragonfruit will ever be able to come close to that freshness. The marlin was incredible. As a pescatarian for 25 years, I've eaten quite a lot of seafood. This marlin was one of the best fish dishes I've ever eaten. The steaks were so fresh, juicy, and flavorful. Finally, the olive oil cake was such a surprise. I'm usually not a huge olive oil cake fan, but the layers of flavor in this course with the delicate cake provided a perfect end to an amazing meal. Chef Katarina truly knows how to transform these beautiful ingredients into next-level dishes. There are a handful of moments in my life that have become my core snapshots that I return to in my mind to feel joy and peace. The image of looking out to the water and mountains at sunset, surrounded by people I love, while enjoying one of the best meals of my life will now be in my memory for always. I know this is an experience we will reminisce about for decades to come, and I'm so grateful to Maui Bees, Chef Katarina, and Beau for making the evening possible.

    Oh my gosh! Our meal was amazing. Our service was amazing Chef Katarina Tualamoso food and presentation is amazing. Bo was our server. He was exceptional. We brought our own sparkling cider to go along with our meal. If you're in Maui, it's a meal of a lifetime. I brought some very dear friends, and they had an exceptional experience as well.

    Be All You Can Bee Established in 2009, this Maui upcountry farm stand/apiary/café has been serving the community with their fresh produce, succulent honey, and baked goods. The Good: *Bee Museum on-site, which is free to visit *Gorgeous location with great views *Walk along the path and take a self-guided tour of the farm. *Their honey is amazingly good and so thick like caramel. They even have a summer blend and winter blend that are distinctively different in color and flavor. *The lady (owner?) who gave us a tour of the bee museum was really nice, informative, and stuck around to give us fun facts and answer any questions. *On-site Café (didn't try so can't comment) that serves a rotating mix of seasonal foods (e.g., bowls, tacos, and soup), as well as caffeineted beverages. The Meh: *Parking lot is tiny and a bit suspect. Be careful pulling in and backing out, as depending on the size of your vehicle, it can be tight to navigate. The Ugly: *The two young ladies running the counter were nice enough, but we literally had to stand there and stare at them while they finished their conversation about how Becky** totally hated on Sharon** and that's like a total bummer cuz now they both won't talk to me. Like, omg! TLDR: Nice spot to see some bees, grab some honey and tour the garden. Maybe even grab a drink or snack but that'll have to wait for #NextTimeGadget **Names have been changed to protect the innocent

    Love this great Mom and Pop business. Store is easy to find and the honey is absolutely the best! All seasons honeys are lip smacking good. They also have sweets, produce and other tasty treats like focaccia sourdough. Great gifts for family and friends, try the turmeric sauerkraut! Yum! Stop by and enjoy a picnic on the farm and maybe reserve a table for the supreme farm to table dinner. Beautiful spot for photos too and you can see a panoramic view from their farm. Bring all your peeps whether locals or visitors. Fun place and staff are beyond friendly and kind.

    My wife and I decided to take the short drive here from the Upcountry Farmers Market and we're glad we did. It's a wonderful place to visit! We were full from the Upcountry Farmers Market so I ordered a unique drink called Golden Hour. It had turmeric powder, steamed milk and honey. It was simple and delicious! We relaxed over the drink in a very relaxing shaded area with tables and chairs. Afterwards, we took a look at the very interesting and small bee museum which has an active hive within it. We saw the the beautiful garden at the back of the shop, flowers in bloom, and people going to and from the beehives out back wearing those sort of space age looking protective suits. The woman who made my drink was incredibly friendly as were all the people there. From the garden in the back you get an amazing view of Maui and islands in the distance. This is a wonderful place to visit!

    Summer and Winter Honey
    Harinder K.

    This is a great spot upcountry to learn about bees, enjoy the garden, and get delicious honey. I come here whenever in Maui to get their winter and summer honey - delicious!

    This was a Jasmine rice bowl with sauerkraut, carrot strings, 6 minute egg, beets and shoyu sauce. Yum!
    Joyce H.

    Lovely place for lunch or bee tour. I enjoy coming here for lunch and a hot tea with their fresh honey. I have had their quinoa bowl and their jasmine rice bowls and they are both delicious. My most recent bowl was the quinoa bowl that had a 6 minute egg, beets, carrots, sauerkraut and shoyu sauce. Delicious! After lunch I took a short self guided tour around their vegetable garden. In addition to bowls they often have delicious dessert on display such as pumpkin muffins or banana caramel pie. The staff here is friendly and helpful. Overall a lovely experience the two times I have been here.

    Shortbread cookie-divine party in the mouth-
    Jacqueline M.

    I love this quaint honey farm- We had the best baked treats here- the hubby had an amazing latte and a chocolate chip cookie- I had an expresso and rosemary shortbread cookie-it was savory and I could have many more! This is definitely a stop if you are nearby. The honey is delicious too!

    Take this tour! It was amazingly informational, beautifully situated in the kula farmland and oh yeah, honey!!!!! This was something off the beaten path but a real favorite for us adults and the kids.

    A walk to remember
    Hal S.

    We made the trek to Kula to see the bees, taste the honey, and have some delicious, healthy lunch; which included sweet potato and black bean tacos on homemade corn tortillas, served with a beautiful green side salad. We arrived shortly before 1 pm, which is when the kitchen closes. At about 1:00 we asked about ordering and Chef Ryan came out and said no problem with serving us - even at the last minute! What a guy! What a team! The honeys we sampled were amazing! I now see what all the buzz is about.... (Sorry for the corny joke). The variety that is produced strictly on site is almost like eating pure caramel. The other varieties (summer and winter) are produced in several properties, all on Maui within a short distance of the main site. They serve several different flavours of jun, which is like kombucha, but made with green tea and honey, rather than black tea and sugar. An acquired taste I think... I learned a lot and left with some really awesome honey!!! This is a great place to visit for a change of pace; in the hills instead of on the beach. Definitely worth the trip for us!

    Christine S.

    Stumbled upon this farm and I'm glad we did! We got some matcha latte with coconut milk and kombucha! The vibe and ambiance were lovely. They have a little bee museum and Rosie showed us the observation hive and talked to us about bees-- super cool! I'd love to do a tour when I come back to Maui! Definitely recommend to friends and family :)

    Jennifer D.

    We just visited and und unfortunately if we didn't just eat breakfast and didn't have a whole day planned in upcountry we would have eaten and bought some goods here. My review is based on the gorgeous view this place has and the vibe. We were warmly welcomed. Everything looked fresh! The menu that day looked like super tasty stuff we definitely would have ordered. Sadly we didn't have another day to head back that way otherwise I would have eaten and bought some goods there. Super cute place!! I'd recommend a visit!

    Farm to table in the yummiest sense Started our visit at Maui Bees with a view of hives and an education of how the farm came to be, what plants they were harvesting that week.....they rotate crops and leverage all the best soils, compost & all organic to boot Then comes a 7-course dinner showcasing everything the gardens have to offer. The dishes were inspired & creative. The flavors were soul-warming & the sunset views couldn't be beat We'll be enjoying our summer honey & remembering our lovely visit

    So fun! I was…read morelooking for something different to do for my bday and kept hearing about Goat Yoga. So we gave it a shot! I've never done yoga or been in close proximity with a mass amount of goats before and I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. When you arrive to the property you will need to park on the street and head down on foot. You're greeted by the owners, where you can rent a mat for $5 (if you don't bring your own). There is a little spot for you to put your shoes and belongings and then you head in to the gated yoga center. The views are amazing! Before the yoga starts, one of the owners gives a little pep talk about the property, shares some history with you and has some fun trivia questions. He was really good about going around and getting pictures of everyone throughout the experience too. Right away it's a light environment and it's pretty clear that it is completely okay if you prefer to chill with the goats and not get an intense yoga session in. Our instructor was patient and really took her time with us, with all of the goat distractions going on. The goats are not shy at all. One of them perched on my partners mat the entire time. Others came and went. I looked around at one point and almost every person had a goat or two on or next to them. All of the goats are clean, friendly and super cute. I was a little nervous about them getting on my back, but it was fine! So glad we tried this out! Definitely recommend for a fun day in the country.

Highly recommend as a unique way to see Up Country!

It was…read morereally awesome to learn how their mango farm works -- as someone interested in gardening, and especially curious about exploring the "food forest" permaculture side of growing food, it was really educational. She taught us the different plant groups that feed each other, and what order to plant to get the most productivity (and safety! We learned that papaya makes a good windbreak for smaller and more delicate plants, and agave makes a good firebreak!). I wish I lived in Maui because I'd be planting mangoes, papayas, bananas, coffee, and cocoa, RIGHT away. It was wild finding out how fast and tall papaya trees grow! These plants don't grow well in Seattle, but we are still going to take what we learned and see how we can apply similar features for our own food forest. I appreciated the very real perspectives about what works - as well as pitfalls and challenges with their food forest / mango farm. The tour was really interesting and fun, and we even had a resident cat named Tyson who took the tour with us! SO CUTE! The view there was beautiful, and though our tour group was tiny, I could see this being a fun activity for kids and families, too. Enough safe space for little folx to run around safely, and so much is stackable. She let us try mango (and wild mangos), ice cream beans (what an experience!), fresh coffee, and more. So good! They said they are going to do dinner parties here and I look forward to coming back to the Maui mango farm when we visit next time. Hopefully we'll have some good photos to show off of the garden upgrades that they've inspired. We really wanted to do something to support the Lahaina community (without being a disaster tourist, either), so visiting a regenerative farm seemed like an awesome choice, and I'm very glad we went.

It was invigorating and soothing at the same time. It was especially helpful for me to get over the mild cold during this trip.

Not much walking-- the most is from the entrance/cafe area to the field with an outlook, where you learn about how the Dole family rekt Lanai's natural environment to farm pineapples (kinda evil). Frankly, the history behind mass agriculture and farming is pretty bleak-- you can't help but feel a sense of injustice for the native Hawaiians. Our tour guide was thorough, objective, while empathetic. From thereafter, you're sitting under an overhang while listening to your tour guide explain the stages of coconut growth & trying the different pieces. We tried: - Coconut water - Coconut jelly - Coconut meat - Coconut shavings ... All from coconuts of varying ages, getting the chance to see how each tastes different from the other. Kai even popped by with a surprise: fresh palm hearts! My bf and I frequently use canned ones for salads-- the raw flavor blew our minds. The entire "tour" took around 1.5 hours. The cafe in front is charming, lovely drink & food offerings alongside a gift shop. You can tell that the staff here actually care about the history of Hawaii and respect the island.

This visit felt really different. Today we brought family visiting from off-island after a walk on Thompson Road. We decided to stay and dine in instead of taking it to go. Looking back... maybe takeout would've been the better option. Ugh. I honestly hate writing this. The only reason I am is because I'm hoping someone from the Grandmas team reads this and actually cares enough to make some changes. If you don't know, you can't grow. Today our experience looked like this: * Watching several people get served after us even though we ordered first. Waiting for almost 30 minutes. * Our order getting mixed up and handed to the wrong person * Confusion about what muffins were available... okay fine, I'll take a blueberry muffin. Then halfway through eating it, I found a hair baked into it * Ordering potatoes without onions because of an allergy, having it made wrong twice, and needing it redone * Noticing the restaurant itself looked like it could use a deep cleaning, including ceiling fans with layers of dust And maybe this was just an off day, but the staff vibe felt... off too. Disconnected. Kind of cliquey. Like everyone seemed more interested in talking amongst themselves than serving guests. The warm, welcoming feeling Grandmas always had just didn't feel like it was there today. As a customer, I honestly felt like I was intruding or inconveniencing the staff just by being there, and that's a really strange feeling in a place we've loved for so long. That's honestly the part that made me the most disappointed. We've loved Grandmas for years, which is why this was tough. After reading several other reviews, it seems others may have had similar experiences too. I really hope things improve and staff morale lifts, because as customers, we feel it. Mahalo for reading. I truly hope this helps and leads to positive changes.
