Not a bad Safeway location. A little pricey sometimes, but it is Safeway AND on Maui, so I wouldn't expect anything differently. Parking is easy, there is a nice sized lot and so it's easy to run in and out. The Husband and I stopped in to pick up alcohol to bring back to our nearby condo rental so even with the inflated Safeway prices, it was still cheaper than drinking at the bar. Oh, and there aren't many other grocery store choices in Lahaina or Kaanapali. So stop here. They did have POG Juice which was a plus, and we ended up buying Hawaiian Made Vodka (which was very smooth and delicious) and a six pack of Wailua Wheat Beer from Kona Brewing Company which is only brewed for Maui. Really cool! Mauna Loa Macadamia Nuts were a freakin STEAL here compared to the airport. They were literally on sale one Sunday for $3.49 per box. Unheard of anywhere else! This Safeway location doesn't carry my beloved Cadbury Caramello Candy Bar which I happened to be craving on this trip. Actually, I didn't find it anywhere on the island. *tear* They did have a good selection of Maui Kettle Cooked Potato Chips and various other "Maui Exclusive" items. I would come back to this Safeway location the next time I'm in Maui to stock up on the essentials. By "the next time" I mean 10 years from now. So I hope it's still here. read more

Safeway - Wailua Wheat Beer by Kona Brewing Company - Grocery Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

We came here to stock up on groceries for our hotel room. It is a much smaller Safeway --- even for Hawaiian standards -- prices are naturally inflated since we're in tourist haven. It was okay -- we got what we needed and for the basics, it came to 88 bucks!! Yeah, 88 bucks. For that we got bread, peanut butter, jam, soy milk, milk, some fruit, some yogurt, bottled water, a packet of shortbread cookies, a bottle of sunscreen -- and that's it. We went to Lahaina Farms a few days later and trust me, they have better prices which was unbelievable since it reminded me more of a small Whole Foods. read more

Peets Coffee, organic produce, great balsamic vinegar and olive oil. We're staying at a fancy resort with a frig and tea kettle. I was able to get supplies for breakfasts and lunches. read more

It's 2021, and shopping with out WiFi is a super thing of the past. The past few times I've gone, I can't connect. I realize that seems small/ trivial, but why even pay for a service that doesn't work or you won't allow your customers to use? It's an extreme hinder and 90% of the reason why I can't stand this store. read more

Don't get stung by shopping at Safeway. What a ripp-off, then on top of that they are pushing for self-checkout. Instead, shopped at a local grocery store and had same brands, some even better for a lot cheaper. I recognize that prices in Hawaii are more expensive, but Safeway is price-gouging everyone and stinging you at the same time. Don't patronize this hose house!!! read more

This Safeway is unlike the usual Safeway/Vons at home! Pineapple with Li Hing powder, Ube ice cream, prepared hot food items, and a great variety of sushi and spring rolls..but what made our trip to this Safeway really stand out were the many flavors of Mochi ice cream!! We went with the Mango Li Hing, Lychee, Chocolate coconut, and Vanilla flavored Mochi ice cream..all so good! read more

We always needed stuff from a grocery store... and since Safeway is on the way back to the condo, we visited here a couple of times. Parking can be tight because there are so many people at the Cannery Mall... and at the stores surrounding Safeway. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=YgrHFJ-I_q8YKI05cjHQTw&userid=IXdmrbRu0veA-OuaP0URwQ The store is well kept and very clean. They have some great deals (depending on the item that's on sale)... but my only gripe is the staff. The cashier and bagger weren't very friendly. They talked a lot to the people in front of us, but were very short with us. I dunno if it was just us?... but I consider myself to be very polite so I'm not sure what the deal was... and this is on more than one occasion. Perhaps if the staff that we encountered can get a fresh course in customer service and etiquette 101... the rating would increase. Besides staff, a great supermarket (and a busy one!) read more

Safeway - Grocery Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

Definitely not my Safeway of choice. The lines can get crazy long and there is no good way to arrange a lot of people near the cash registers. There didn't seem to be any self checkout lines either. Also because this is Hawaii the prices here in general seem a lot higher than on the mainland. $2.99 per pound for onions?! read more

The only place In Lahaina for all, yes all your flower needs. They personalize in what ever you want. They will help in last minute flowers for all your Hula needs! Stop by here first and see Aunty Noe, she's the best with ideas to make your event look beautiful. read more

It was around 8:00 pm and I was craving some poke. I went to 3 other places (Foodland, Food Farms & Tamura's), and they had all run out of ahi shoyu poke by that hour. On my last final attempt, I stopped by Safeway, and lo & behold, they still had some left! And it was delicious!! The ahi was so soft and the seasoning & shoyu were perfect. I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5, because the guy at the poke counter seemed more interested being on his iPhone than helping customers. read more

Yes it's expensive in Maui for food..But safeway in lahaina has probably the best assortment of fresh Poke...Very good...

If you are in the Lahaina area this will be your life vest. It has everything you need, but nothing in Hawaii is cheap so be prepared for a price shock. Staff is very helpful, so if you can't find it ASK. read more

Here is another place to shop at if you want some good poke! And it's close to a little mini mall and you can use your Vons rewards points card to save. This time around they had good deals and the alcohol section was not closed off. This place was crowded during the day which next time I will heading here at nite. It was like everyone and there mama's and kids were there. The best part was that the express line was open. yay!!! Safeway was stocked and clean. Great employees.. read more

Not one of the better Safeways I've been to. It's quite dirty and disorganized. Everything is expensive in Maui, this Safeway offers no refuge from the high prices. Now I know why people eat so much Spam in HI, because protein is so expensive! All their pokes were previously frozen. I didn't sample any as they didn't look that great. We did however get two pairs of cheap snorkels for $5.99 each that worked just fine for the week. Next time we will do what the savvier visitors do and stop at Costco near the airport as soon as we pick up the rental car. read more

Expensive. You can defray the cost by opening a Safeway card. The poke was so salty that there was no taste to it other than salt. A lot of items will ring up for the wrong price at checkout. (Always more expensive.) Then you have to get a price check, and it's always so crowded that everyone in line will glare at you. Go somewhere else if possible. read more

Eewwww no. Safeway is kind of the only game in town for 24 hour grocery. So you're pretty much at the mercy of under stocked shelves, bad customer service or ongoing maintenance and 2 to 3 cashiers for a huge crowd of people trying to get out of there with massive shopping carts full of groceries. Every time I go there it's a zoo. It's always a zoo. It takes me forever to find parking, find what I need, check out, and get out of there. I avoid this place like the plague. There are much better options for you in Maui to do your grocery shopping at. read more

Compared to other grocery stores on the island, I'm surprised that it only has 3 stars. They have better prices than most, and the "usual" things you're looking for. Moms - better prices on diapers and formula They offer the same % off as they do on the mainland and they have the typical brands that a Safeway would carry on the mainland. Decently clean - averagely nice staff - but who cares when you're running in for grocery items. read more

This is probably the worst stocked Safeway I've ever seen. Empty shelves and low stock on items. The meat dept was disgusting with gray meat in packaging! read more

Poke review: you can find better for the same or cheaper price. Got a salmon and shoyu ahi tuna poke bowl with white rice and it was very underwhelming. The salmon did not taste fresh and the shoyu was definitely not the best we had in the area. It was a bit salty for my taste. On the plus side, they did pack the bowl with a lot of fish. They do have many options to choose from as well! Poke aside: all the staff members are very kind and helpful! They helped us save some money during our stay by getting a safeway card. read more

Has pretty everything you will need to prepare for a week's worth of groceries. Eggs run out toward the end of the weekend. Price is a little expensive but it's Maui. read more

Poke Poke Poke...there are two big guys behind the counter at the fish/poke dept that make some of the best poke on the island. I am talking about real poke not the peanut butter stuff at the overpriced tourist trap restaurants. They are always willing to let you try a sample and tell you what is REALLY good that day...or was it that I look like a "local" they treat me "special", whatever...its really good. I think I was there 5 out of the 7 days on the island. They ran out of the favorite twice...boo hoo! Yeah everything is expensive, however, didn't you mainlanders just spend 2K a person flying and sleeping here and $54 on steak a Whalers? Get over it. I shopped at a couple of markets where the locals go, and didn't find the prices that different. Get the poke...if not I am gonna buy it all!!! read more

We were just visiting, so I can only base this on one visit, but this grocery store was decent. They have everything you need and I really liked that everything local was clearly marked with a tag. I started going up and down the aisles just looking for those tags to buy those products instead. The parking lot is pretty nuts. read more

Everything you need A good fresh fruit and veggie section, good steaks, good deals on soda, beer and wine. We also loved the NY style bagels....crunchy and fresh. Besides all the food and drinks you also can stock up on sunscreen and all the beach gear you need for fair prices. Food to-go is also available and pretty good. If you have a safeway card you can pretty much get a discount on anything. We came here often and always left happy with a cart full of stuff....and less money in our pockets. We were suprised by the wine prices....comparable to the mainland, which was cool. And an extra 10% off if you buy six or more. And they do have a nice selection of Californian Wine (try The Prisoner, Palermo or Ghost Pine). When we were in Oahu we went to the one in Kaneohe....which was worse. This one here is one of the better.... read more

Its a safeway. Prices were a bit better than local stores like foodland. But not much more than back in california. Had some local food like poke. Really nice check out lady. Parking was a bit brutal though. read more

Safeway, thanks very much for carrying Kauai Coffee!! I could not find it anywhere on Maui. Not even Walmart which carries it in their Oahu stores and seems strange that they do not on another Hawaiian Island. You can find the Medium Roast, Dark Roast, Vanilla Macadamia Nut and Coconut Caramel Crunch flavors in 7 oz bags on aisles 2 and 7. Wish they would carry the 25 oz bags. Guess Safeway does not want tourists to miss buying this delicious coffee made on Kauai which is milder than Kona Coffee. Mahalo! read more

Safeway - I love Kauai coffee! - Grocery Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

I see others are writing about the same thing, da Poke... I'll just say that they have a pretty good variety of Poke at the seafood section of the store. Ask the guy for a sample and he/she will gladly give you one. (I had a few, yum) Those small octopus Poke looks kinda weird, but they taste pretty good, a bit on the sweet side... Take your Poke back to your condo and fire up da rice cookah... Ono grinds brah...(see pic) =) I can't comment on the other grocery items,,,,, I know that the cereal is +$5 a box ! When you land in Kahului, check out the SacknSave on Eha St, they have a good selection / variety of Poke at the back.... (I reviewed too) read more

Safeway - Safeway Poke - Grocery Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

This store has recently double in size and is being completely remodeled. I'd say it's currently about 75% complete. So that's good and bad but the end result will be great! Currently it's a totally discombobulated You can easily find close to mainland pricing on a lot of items, especially those on sale/special. Really nice if you are staying in a vacation rental with a full kitchen. Stock up here (and Costco) for most of your meals, use the savings towards your next vacation!! Unfortunately the parking lot here is way to small to service the mall alone, let alone the new expanded Safeway. So, be prepared and have a little patience. ALOHA read more

5 stars for a seriously delicious and fresh poke bowl. My parents and I stopped here to grab some food before a trip to Haleakala summit. I was annoyed because it was thanksgiving day and I wanted something delicious. But, much to my chagrin - the Safeway poke bowl delivered! It was fresh and yummy and hot the spot. I did it half salad half rice with spicy tuna and salmon. It was perfect. Would recommend if you're looking for something fresh, reasonably priced and quick! read more

This Safeway is currently under construction, so right now the place is more of a 3-Star store, but I don't think that's fair to give them that on yelp. The Safeway employees are friendly and helpful. The fresh food is good, even down to their sushi (I just ate their spicy tuna roll and it was really good)! Although it's a little disorganized right now because of construction, it was still easy to find what I needed. The fruit and vegetables were fresh. The store was clean. Overall it was a standard Safeway Market. read more

Stayed in Lahaina over the Thanksgiving holiday looking for some meats to grill at our hotel, Aina Nalu. It was slim pickings but I should have known everybody flocks here at the 11th hour, lol.... Safeway is VONS, just like the one in LB but of course prices much higher, cause it's Maui. The price you pay in paradise is everything is shipped from the 'mainland' to the islands. The store is nicely laid out but also slim pickings shelves for seltzer water and some chips. Settled on two coffees in a can to refrigerate and drink in the morning. I've never been able to find these coffees in a can, only when I visit Hawaii. I also got some Kona Red tea that I had been meaning to try. I input my phone number for Vons club card discounts. read more

I'm reading them one star because of their customer service. I visit this location two times on my stay here. The first time when I went out to the checkout the lady didn't even acknowledge me when I said OK thank you have a good day. I walked away and thought wow she was rude. Then we came back and went to the deli and ordered sandwiches and when I got back home to eat my sandwich I have never had such a hard piece of bread in my life. If we had a car I would drive back and bring them to bread and ask how they could even serve out to me because it is so hard. Unfriendly and rude. read more

Lady in self check out with the long hair is RUDE! First off all those machines always mess up when it comes to bagging. So my dad tells the lady that something is going on with the machine and the lady responds "it's not the machine, it's you". Then she proceeded to help us with an attitude. read more

Very busy Safeway! This place is very convenient as it is in between so many of the hotels. We were staying in a time share that had a oven/stove so we could cook a lot of our meals and save some money on not eating out so much. So this place definitely was good for us and visited multiple times. Because of the location there was always a lot of people here. Pretty long lines. Although each time the lines did go fairly fast. The customer service was not the greatest. A few of the employees were pretty rude. One was mad about not being able to take a break and was pretty much just throwing our stuff to the side and didn't talk to us. But like I said before the location was convenient so we did return. They have everything that you would typically expect from a grocery store. Prices are a little bit steeper that what I am used to. But hey we were on an island in the middle of the ocean! read more

Located in the Lahaina Canary Mall complex, this is conveniently located by many hotels and resorts. Ample parking is available. Inside, it's a madhouse. Express line took forever to get through. And there was a sign that said if there were three or more ppl waiting, they'd open another register. Never happened. There were tons of closed registers, and none were opened. They need more staff working these registers. read more

In my experience the employees are unfriendly when you need help and very pushy at the self-checkout with no regard for personal space. With the groceries being overpriced I would've expected better customer service. My family enjoys their fresh donuts despite the other detractors. read more

Yay for the selection of baby food pouches. Was able to find Plum Organics pouches for my toddler which Foodland Farms did not carry.

I usually buy food here when i first arrive at my hotel room. The muffins that I bought where crazy expensive at $6.99. The cheapest wine that I could buy was 2 x more expensive than the same thing you could buy in Orange County. read more
