Maui Marketplace

Located five minutes from Kahului Airport on the busy Dairy Road, the Maui Marketplace is a center to get value and convenience. This marketplace has popular chains like Borders Books & Music and Starbuck's Coffee (with wi-fi access), Sports Authority, OfficeMax, Pier One Imports and Eagle Hardware.

Interspersed with the chain stores are smaller independent stores, such as The Vault and Hawaiian Island Creations. You can sample local foods at the Kau Kau Corner food court.

A great place for lunch is Aloha Grill, a 50s inspired nostalgia grill with movie posters on the wall. You can find the classic burgers, fries and hot dogs, or take the chance to try something more unusual like a taro burger, made from veggies, herbs and spices. All the burgers are served with a side of be-bop sauce, ketchup, mayo, mustard and relish mixed together. The “Bone Jar Shake” is a favorite, made with chocolate and peanut butter.
