Based upon our recent visit June 2022. Mostly based on Our Poke order - other groceries items we purchased were fine. Tried Original Ahi Poke & Ahi & Avocado. The Ahi w/Avocado was fresh - not the deep red Ahi we look for but we enjoyed it. The original/regular Ahi Poke was NOT good, when we opened the lid there was an unpleasant surprise a fishy smell -- unfortunately one bite confirmed that the Ahi was not fresh, very fishy w/an off taste, we threw it out. Disappointing, the price tag they stick on the lid says, "100% guaranteed," not sure what that means - take it back for a refund? We weren't planning on going back as we had just arrived in Maui. Just finished our Costco & Safeway grocery provision run so, going back to Lahaina (traffic) for a refund is massively inconvenient (wait in line) and not worth our time - when on vacation time is a valuable commodity. How about Safeway & their Seafood/Poke team just do better. +1 for the Ube Bun w/Ube custard filling from the deli section - wow YUM! *Pro Tip: You can USE your Safeway/Chevron REWARDS POINTS at TEXACO GAS STATIONS

Quality/Quantity - Back to one of our favorite places to get poke, a hidden secret! And since Costco did not have the beer I wanted, I got it here!! Atmosphere - Good size parking lot, but always full, so be safe. Propane, business delivery, DMV kiosk, Redbox, Western Union. Drive up & go, curbside pick up. Bakery, Deli, Starbucks, Produce, Meat & Seafood, Floral departments. Service - Open 24 hours. Liquor department closes at 11:59pm. Price - Hawaiian prices, be prepared to pay more than the mainland. Owner Comment - We will come here often to get our fresh snacks and meals throughout our stay in Maui. Congrats on your success at this location since 1963. Congrats on your success since 1915 with your 904 locations in 17 states. In 2015, Albertsons purchased Safeway. Safeway has a long history, which I will not get into.

Very big and clean store. There are plenty of prepared meals available, including a fully stocked deli counter. I especially like the local options. Pop and adult beverages are abundant. As there are lots of timeshares around, the store gets crowded I'm the early evening so it's prudent to plan your trip around it.

This Safeway is pretty cool! I've never been to a Safeway with such a Large wine and liquor selection before! They actually have wine cellar here. Lord have Mercy! Bought a loaf of bread here and it was baked fresh per usual. Safeway have 2 types of French breads nowadays - crispier kind and chewier kind. Depending on what I'm eating, I like each for how they complement my food. Both are good bread:)

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!

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.

Well-stocked, clean, and has friendly staff. We always stop by here on our vacations in Maui for the convenience and accessibility. They also have plenty of souvenir type items to purchase for friends back home!

Safeway has the best poke selection. They also have meat, fish, and huge variety of fresh produce and liquor. The deli selection is huge. And plenty of sushi rolls to take home. I will choose Safeway over Times anytime because of quality, cleanliness, and selection. I will also pick up from Safeway rather than driving for 45 min to Costco or Whole Foods.

Shame on you Safeway Lahaina!!!!! I have noticed on my recent trips in your store a least one or two unmasked shoppers. Tonight there were at least four. When I pointed this out to the cashier on my way out he said" we keep telling the manager, but they won't do anything! They are afraid of getting fired" seriously?!?? Our numbers are spiking and you can't do the bare minimum to protect our community? Shame on you!

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.

Never thought of writing a review for Safeway. But it is only coz we stopped multiple times to restock our grocery during recent trip it was our Safeway from running out of time to sit at crowded places for meals!!! It sits next the touristy area of kaanapiali and Lahaina and must stop to replenish your sticks of beverages, cereal, picnic food specially if you are staying longa vacations. They do offer huge parking and are really convenient specially when you are running out of option and time to get something to eat in crazy crowded summer of 202.

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!!!

We already knew the local prices would be a lot higher so I won't even complain about that. We were prepared. It is typically frustrating shopping in a grocery store you aren't familiar with. Fortunately the whole store was clearly marked and organized. We were able to find everything we needed in a timely fashion. They have a full alcohol selection as well.
