Best Places for Cheaper Eats
If you’re looking for restaurants that offer amazing cuisine that won’t break the bank. You don’t have to look too hard! Maui has some incredibly noteworthy places to eat that aren’t too pricey. Honestly, my favorite places to eat are always the cheaper ones 🙂
Since Lahaina and Kihei are busier parts of the island, you’ll find endless options of places to eat in those towns. And because the north shore and upcountry are more local spots, you’ll see a lot of delicious, local, family-owned places!
Westside
Paia Fish Market (there are also locations in Kihei and Paia) – fresh fish plates, fish tacos
Down the Hatch – burgers, sandwiches, and tacos
Cool Cat Cafe – burgers (some of the best burgers on island)
North shore
Flatbread Pizza – pizza
Milagros – Mexican
Cafe des Amis – crepes and curry
Choice Health Bar (there’s also a location in Lahaina and Whalers Village) – acai bowls, smoothies
Surfclub – tacos and local Hawaiian plates
Southside
Isana (more pricey throughout the day, but they have a reserve happy hour from 9-10pm) – sushi
Coconuts – fresh fish and fish tacos
Maui Brewing Company (a great place for some good burgers and local beer!) – burgers and nachos
Foodland poke – I’d say this is a must-try while you’re here! Many of the grocery stores sell poke bowls, my favorite is from Foodland (there are Foodland locations all over the island!)
Upcountry
Casanova – Italian
Pollis – Mexican
Grandma’s Coffee House – Hawaiian plates
