Safeway is not my favorite grocery store but I still go there at times. What I like: Convenient location at the edge of Kahului. They offer a discount coupon if you get your flu shot there. Wide selection of products. Good sale prices for ice cream. Cheaper gas than most places. What I don't like:Freezing cold inside!Terrible traffic jams at times to enter the lot...they need more access points. Prices are higher than other places. Stupid in- store apps to get discount on items. But the service is always friendly and helpful so I'll continue to visit here occasionally.

Overall, I enjoy shopping at Safeway but my most recent visit was unexpected. It was a Friday, it was expected to be busy since the deals are so great on Friday's! We got wings since their salt and vinegar wings so good but when we got to the register to pay near the sushi, Imelda was behind the register obviously distracted "tried" to help us. Normal routine if you shop at Safeway is to enter your number, we weren't prompted to and I thought that was unusual.. Imelda asked us to enter a phone number if we had and I explained that it didn't show up on the machine.. she then asked us again and I repeated myself, it's not there. She then proceeds to enter it manually on her end and once the transaction was done she repeated herself AGAIN saying next time to enter a phone number for the promotions and I again said it wasn't on there. Everyone around us heard her raise her voice at me and instead of making a scene I walked away. Imelda, you work in customer service.. do better. Wings was good though Went back today 12/15 and had a much better experience.. did the same thing, went up to the counter after getting my wings and Miss Sherwin I believe was her name was so sweet and pleasant to ALL her customers, thank you!

This is a decent Safeway - maybe a level 2? I shopped around Target, Walmart, and Costco and I think this Safeway had a larger variety of local, made in Hawaii/Maui products. The chocolates are cheaper at Costco and Target though. I like that this location was easy to drive in and out of and that there is a gas station.

This Safeway is near OGG airport and conveniently opens 24 hours. It's huge inside and carries plenty of stuff you might need for your trip, though the food selections aren't that many choices for ready to eat.

Always an awesome place to get some basics like water, bread, snacks, fruits, and.... POKE!If you want a large selection of POKE to choose from, Safeway is a safe and solid place to go.This place is always busy, and especially this branch because it is right smack in the middle of tourist town. But there is a large free parking lot so it's convenient.Also the location is very convenient. Everyone from our party seemed to have found a place to stay along this strip. And buying chips and fruits for the kids' snacks here really saved everyone some dough.

This is probably the coldest Safeway on the island & I absolutely love it. They're ac works so well, I actually wouldn't be surprised if I ever saw any ice sculptures on display. (Which if you ever do, please let me know I'd love to snap a few pics.) But seriously shopping here is like my affordable escape. I can bundle up like I'm going somewhere cold without forking out an expensive plane ticket to do so.You might find it strange, but yes I'm a shopaholic & I do love shopping here. Being able to walk up & down the aisles is seriously my favorite form of exercise. I get to burn a few calories while looking for more to take home. It's also one of my favorite things to do on a date night. Browsing for sweet treats, picking out a fun new wine to try. Plus just on the lookout for some fresh ingredients. To me it's always exciting to pick up some fresh, healthy & delicious ingredients.Plus another one of my shopping perks is the Starbucks in the corner. Not only am I in my shopping element but having what I call my crack, a matcha frappe. Is the quickest way to make me smile. Also for some reason that taste of fresh cut grass in the form of tea is actually surprisingly tasty. I'd recommend trying it a few times, before giving up hope on it because it really does grow on you.P.S. There's a cashier that deserves some kudos. So I just wanted to give her a shout out for your excellent customer service. You were friendly & good at your job. You made waiting in line quick & pleasant. Xoxo,ChelsieFletcher

We needed motion-sickness pills for our drive to Hana and this was the perfect place to pick it up, after filling up at the Safeway Express. It's so convenient to shop at this Safeway Pharmacy, as it's so close to the airport and convenient with all the necessities of home. Plus there is electric vehicle charging at the Safeway grocery store which is becoming more in demand...

When my wife and I are looking to really relax and reconnect, Hawaii is always at the top of our list. There is nothing like being in a place that takes you away from the "hustle and bustle" that takes place on the mainland, it literally forces you to slow down (the max speed on the highway is 45 MPH)! Upon arriving in Maui, my wife and I thought it would be a good idea to do some grocery shopping. Since we were staying at an Airbnb with a full kitchen, we figured that we should make the best of our housing and safe some cash by cooking our own meals (on occasion we did indulge in the local restaurants).We stumbled upon this Safeway store that was located 15 minutes away from our room. If you have ever been to a Safeway, you will not find anything terribly remarkable about this location. However, we were enamored by the alcohol section that offered some beer, wine, and hard liquor that is exclusive to Hawaii (unless you want to pay the upcharge fees of purchasing this at your local Total Wine). This not only saved us from running up ridiculously high tabs at local bars, but also allowed for us to travel back with some Hawaiian drank (sorry I couldn't help myself)!As a tip (I will add this to the official "tip" section later), I HIGHLY recommend opening a Safeway rewards account prior to visiting this store. The difference between the non-member and member prices are substantially different, especially when purchasing multiple items. Need an example? Prior to entering our Safeway Rewards card information, our transaction was $229. After entering the Safeway Rewards information, our transaction was reduced down to $134 (that's a saving of a whopping $95)....your welcome!

Topping off the car rental before returning it today. It does add a mile or minute or two to the drive to the airport is all. Of course there's a line for gas too. Ugh. Gas is $3.74 a gallon here, not too bad.

The first stop on the road to Hana to load up on snacks for the 10 hour trip.If you would have seen all our group bought for the trip you would have sworn we went grocery shopping for the week! It was a bit over the top.This grocery store was a nice mix of big and local. Great selection of fresh as well as the standards.There is a full isle of beer, wine and the good stuff too. I like it that you can buy alcohol in a grocery store. They have a Starbucks in here and a small floral area too. They are very clean and quick to get you checked out as well.A great grocery store that has a good selection.
