Would add that it's not the easiest set up for those with accessibility challenges to navigate because all stalls are largely situated on a big patch of grass. Parking is limited so I would recommend carpooling when possible. Could definitely feel the island vibes with music playing from some stalls, and locals catching up with the farmers and vendors while selecting their produce for the week. Prices are comparable to those at the grocery stores. Would definitely recommend checking out when around the area.

10/26/24 Grove Farms farmers market is located at a park across from the Kauai Community College,…read moreSaturdays starting at 9 am. I look forward to this one because it's one of the bigger, more established farmers market. A few years back, I think it was located at the parking lot of the community college itself with more food trucks. The vendors are friendly & most give out samples. I am more inclined to purchase if the vendor is generous with samples (hint hint wink wink) Of note, it's in a grassy area & can get pretty murky/muddy after a rain. Parking is where you can find it at the park. There's of course fresh fruits & vegetables in season, cooked foods (Filipino, Thai, Korean & much more). The one that stood out was the Honey (Yellow) watermelon-- the vendor was all smiles & offered generous samples of the fruit. Oh my, my, my!! It was so sweet, crisp & mouthwateringly delicious! I couldn't pass it up. The sticker price was by size & I asked the vendor to pick a good one for me-- Yokes! $14 Wowzah. That's the most I have ever paid for any watermelon EVER. This had better me a life-changing delicious pick hahaha. We shall see. I was planning on getting my veggies here for my Sinigang (Filipino sour soup): got Ongchoy (kang-kong), okra & small taro--it is called gabi in Tagalog & gandus in Kapampangan. I love gandus coz is definitely creamier in texture compared to the big taro that is used for making poi. I always look forward to visiting this farmers market but sometimes we're not in the area when it is here. I was fortunate to have visited this time. UPDATE: the honey watermelon was sooooo worth it. Come & try!

Which is pretty cool. Must have a big population of them here. To my surprise they also had a huge section of Japanese products which included a Don Quote section. Really nice. I was looking for my vitamin gel but they didn't have it. I always get that in Japan. We got two different pokes here. One previously frozen and the other the guy said was fresh. They were just ok. Not as fresh as what we had for lunch at one of the country clubs at the golf course. No biggy. More places to eat at. Always worth a look since they have so much stuff. If you are BBQ or cooking at your timeshare this is the place to go. They staff are really friendly. They thought we were locals heheh. We get mistaken a lot for it.

The flavors, the texture, the freshness, everything is just spot on every single time. And honestly, it's not just the açaí bowls. Pretty much everything on the menu stands out. The smoothies are incredible, the ingredients always taste fresh, and somehow everything feels healthy while still tasting great. One of my favorite spots to grab something quick that actually tastes amazing. The staff and management are awesome too, and the whole place just has a really good vibe. You can genuinely feel the Aloha in everything they do. God, I love this place. Here's a tip: order online from their website and skip the line. There is always a line and it's so much faster to just walk in and have your item already waiting for you. You just go straight to the counter for pick up and bingo bango.

I politely asked if she could reprint my receipt because my grandma didn't grab hers and someone else had taken it. She told me I had to wait for a manager, and while handling her scanner, she dropped it directly on my foot on my toe. I said "OW!" loudly because it genuinely hurt, and instead of apologizing or even asking if I was okay, she simply said, "I'm just trying to help." No apology whatsoever. I went to wait with my grandma and later came back because I thought she was looking for me. Instead, she yelled at me, "I TOLD YOU TO WAIT OVER THERE!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to me that way. Thankfully, the manager eventually helped me and provided the receipt I needed. Diane seriously needs to work on her customer service and communication. Customers should not be treated this way, especially when they are being polite and simply asking for assistance.

Should have done more research before coming here…read more Grocery poke is surprisingly good in Hawaii, so tried to find the nearest supermarket near our hotel in Kauai. Our lunch on Day 3 had been a bust, so decided to eat in more and get needed supplies. I knew that Safeway was affiliated with Albertson's, which I THOUGHT owned Foodland (which has great poke)...so came here and bought other stuff (cause we were already there). Later found out that my assumption was incorrect. The employees here are tired of tourists, I think. The woman at the seafood counter (which has a small poke section), acted like she was doing me a favor when I asked for the rest of the fresh hawaiian style poke. When I asked how good the from-frozen ahi poke was, she mumbled something unintelligible. Cashiers don't have to be friendly but should be at least respectful, and appear as if trying The lane was open, so it wasn't too busy. She barely acknowledged us but did scan each item without being asked (and we were self self bagging). But then there was a pause to push the process to start the payment process. Then another long pause after I had entered my credit card. Then another pause to print receipt. Then finally after printing, she grabbed the receipt without looking at it and just stuck out her hand AT me to grab without looking at me. The last two actions were happening while she was having a funny (to her) conversation with a co-worker. Not good when two employees together are acting like this without shame. A part of me wanted to lightly slap her receipt-holding hand and tell her "Didn't your mama teach you manners?". Purchases: -- 2 bagels ($1.19 each) -- small Lucerne milk ($2.89) -- small cream cheese ($5.99) -- fresh (not frozen) ahi tuna ($29.99 per pound, paying $21.29). -- six pack can of Maui Brew Mango Beer ($14.99 with Dep fee of $0.30 -- PB Blondie Bestie ice cream from Ben and Jerry, pint for $4.99 (normally $8.99 but on sale so very good price...needed to download the Safeway app since my Von's or Albertson's card doesn't work...had good free wi-fi in store).

I walked into this small shop to find a very friendly atmosphere with the clerk explaining how the shop started its journey. At first I was not interested in buying anything there, until I saw the hot sauce. Thankfully the clerk/cashier offered a free sample of the hot sauce while explaining how it was made and who the chef was. I was impressed with the flavor and texture of this amazing Hawaiian sauce! The soy sauce tasted incredible as well! The twist this chef puts on regular every day sauces is incredible. It's delicious. Imagine tasting a hot sauce without a chip or cracker, just the sauce, and enjoying every bite. You can't do that with regular hot sauce! The store itself is more like a small town shop, clean and neat, fully stocked and decorated to match their product line. I left the store without buying. Three days later I went back and purchased 3 bottles of hot sauce for the flight home! I've used it on every dish I've made this week! It's delicious!
