Kukuiula Market

Wish I would have discovered this place earlier on the trip. Great selection of foods (no personal products like shampoo or shaving cream) and pre packaged foods like salads, sushi and poke. There is also a juice bar and poke bar inside the market. Such a cute place and love the authentic vibes.

Absolutely love this market! There is a great acai bowl place inside and an amazing coffee shop!! This is the BEST matcha I’ve had on the Kauai at a great price as well! The donut was amazing as well. The burrito from da crack outside was also the best that I’ve had in Kauai! 10/10 You can also find poi here

Best poke bowls we’ve had on the trip! Generous portions too.

I go here for the little cafe in the back- the supermarket part is a joke. Random products in random places. I would never get meat from here. Most shelves were empty. The acai bowl from the back counter though was on another LEVEL!! WOW! Generous portion for a small. So good, will be back for another! Walk to the back of the supermarket by frozen items and you will see the counter in the pics I included. It is not the one by the door when you walk in. We got the funky monkey or something like that.

We came here multiple times during our stay in Kauai! The açaí bowls were so yummy! The poke was amazing. I loved the poke nachos - they use wontons instead of tortilla chips and the nachos had so much flavor! The best shave ice on the island is in the parking lot (The Good Stuff Shave Ice). We tried a lot of shave ice places around the island but none even came close to this place! They use fresh purées instead of just syrups (they also have syrups if you like them). Ours was also topped with honey and fresh fruit. Seriously this place was the best!

Locals market with local produce and meat in limited quantities. We found it to be more reasonably priced than other grocery stores.

Come here for the açaí bowls & friendly staff! The grocery section is limited but they still have great beach-friendly snacks and beverages 💓 I’m so glad I waited to get a smoothie bowl (poipu) here instead of the fancier / new cafes on the north shore that cost more and gave less. This was a GENEROUS portion of smoothie AND fresh fruit. Highly highly recommend if you want some refreshing smoothies or bowls!

This place is a real local market place. It has like 4 aisle. I went for the rest made lunches and by 1230 they were sold out. Like bare shelves!!! Not really a place to stock up either. However, they had some great meat options! Affordable grass fed beef cuts!

This market has everything you could need, including a juice bar that also serves acai bowls (Anake's Juice Bar), flower stand, and poke spot (Lawai'a Fish Co) inside. The acai bowl place as poppin', I'll definitely have to come back and try it. They also sold juice shots from Kauai Juice Co and mason jars with overnight oats in all different flavors. We opted to get the PB and banana one, excited to give it a try. They sell tons of local products and meats. Unfortunately no local Kaua'i eggs sold here, go to Hoku market for that. They also sell Gina's banana bread for $8.50 near the register, they are huge portions and she doesn't skimp on the nuts, very tasty!! Next to the poke, they also have a food warmer stocked with to-go hot breakfast bentos as well as musubi. Wish I knew that earlier during my trip!

This little market was such a delight! Incredibly grateful to have fresh green drink minutes away. Ginger shots, protein smoothies. Always in search of a good juice bar. This place has great fish, local beef, papaya bowls , breakfast egg rice Portuguese sausage and bacon to grab and go before we hiked sleeping Giant. And oh, my, the most amazing secondhand shop curated so, so well! I mean I left with a cutest dressy dress and a sexy bikini. They have lulu, free people, boho island vibe. 10-14$‍

Great funky little local grocery store. Don't miss the smoothie place inside in the back of the store. It's delicious. They also have a pop up clothing store in the back by the freezer section.

Fresh fruit smoothies, Acai bowls, refrigerated case full of poke from shoyu ahi to spicy octopus, sushi grab and go packs and bento boxes. Array of local food and fresh drinks, great service and soft serve ice cream,!local favorites such as Uber!!! Very casual but local ambiance and friendly vibes!!!

The acai bowls are very good. Our family really enjoyed the funky monkey. The store has shirts for sale, but they're hidden and in some cases still wrapped in rubber bands instead of being put out for sale

Walked just under a mile from my timeshare to this store, while waiting for my order from Da Crack in the same shopping strip. We couldn't find pineapples at Costco, and didn't have time to stop by Big Save on our first day in Kauai. Got the following: $2.89/lb for lettuce, $1.89/lb for red delicious apples, $1.69/lb for pineapple, $1.69/lb for bananas. No anjou pears, which were sold at $2.25/lb or $9 at Costco for a 4 lb bag. Surcharge for credit card use. A few days later checked the prices at Big Save in Koloa: $3.40/lb for lettuce, $2.39/lb for apples, $1.39/lb for pineapple, and $1.49/lb for bananas, and $2.69/lb for anjou pears. And you thought pineapple was cheaper in Hawaii than California.

I think this place is probably highly rated for their açaí bowls and poke and not so much on grocery options. We visited here as it was the only grocery store located near our condo. We set out for groceries and were a little saddened to see most of the shelves were bare. It was later in the day, so maybe they hadn't restocked and there had been a rush earlier that day. Not sure. I didn't even see Spam! But we ended up opting out of purchasing anything and went the Instacart route instead. I'd be willing to check this place out again for poke or açaí bowls, and perhaps groceries if it's earlier in the day.

Undeniably the best Açaí bowls on the island. We discovered this gem through a local recommendation, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. As seasoned açaí lovers, our expectations were high--and this place exceeded them. Pro Tip: Try the Funky Monkey. It's so delicious, it'll have you questioning whether you're eating chocolate mousse or açaí. Truly unforgettable! The team is extra professional and knowledgeable açaí makers. And honest :)

Great market, great Poke bar and little restaurant/bar inside. Expensive but, high quality stuff

For some reason I just have to visit this store each time I return! This visit was full of changes! The shave ice place relocated, there are independent vendors selling Hawaiian poke and goodies at the front, breakfasts are available in addition to baked goodies available for your day! At the back there is a juice shop that makes delicious acai bowls, smoothies and fresh juices. This was very busy. There's also a little shop selling gently used clothing. Great pieces at great prices! The store still sells groceries but when you can share space with other vendors everyone wins, especially the customers!!!

We loved this place. Stopped for the Poke the first time when the Koloa Fish Market was closed. The Poke was really good. We came a little late in the day so the gluten free options were somewhat limited but I still managed to eat well and it was delicious. We also got a smoothie. I tried the Lava Flow, a vegan coconut cream, pineapple, strawberry and coconut mixture. It was delicious! I went back for another one, on a different day and I watched them make it the second time around. I want to try it at home. There is a little coffee shop in the grocery store too and they threaten to have gluten free cakes but I could never get there in time to try one. I hear that the owner of the coffee shop makes them daily. The one day that I managed to there early was a Sunday and it turns out the the coffee shop is not open on Sundays. That was a bummer but it is what it is. I'll try to go back on our next visit. There will be next visit. We had so much fun exploring Kuaui. This little market also has a small consignment/used clothing shop inside. What a neat idea. Local art, consignment shop, coffee shop, smoothie bar, poke bar inside of a grocery store. Love love loved it. Went there many times.

Little market near Poipu Beach that sell groceries and produce, and local products such as hot sauce. You can get the essentials, but at a price tag. There is also a poke stand, a smoothie/juice bar, and a coffee stand inside. We came almost daily for poke and smoothie. People who work there are super nice.

Got a large Poipu Paradise acai bowl & loved it. All the toppings were delicious & the smoothie base was the perfect sweetness and consistency. There's also bench seats inside which was nice.

It's a simple grocery store with some basics. Nothing fancy, but convenient to have if you're staying in Poipu. I will say the banana nut bread was so yummy and the pineapple fritters reheated was delicious. I was hoping to pick up some spam musubi, but at 11:00 am they were sold out. I was told to come early so I went back the day of my flight home and picked up a local meats bento box and spam musubi, both of which were delicious and hit the spot. They also have an acai bowl and poke place inside if you're looking for a lunch or dinner option. All in all a great grocery store to pick up the basics with friendly staff onsite.

This is just a simple review. A must go to for fresh fruit, but best of all is the poke bar inside.

Awesome açaí bowls for breakfast. The medium size is huge! Start your day with a healthy dose of local fruit.

This is a super convenient marketplace! We needed some groceries for breakfasts and lunches this week and their selection was decent! We were super surprised about how many gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian items they had in stock (including creamers, cheeses, breads, and various snacks). There are also a couple food vendors in there including an Açaí Bowl stand and there was even a little clothing boutique in the back. The only thing I wish were different were the prices. It seemed kinda steep even for staple items such as bread and lunch meat. But maybe the prices here on Kaua'i are just a bit more? Idk. Overall, very cool setup and selection - definitely worth it to shop for a few groceries while you stay here on Kaua'i

Literally de best Banana Bread with chocolate chips on the island! Get it before it's gone! Plus the açaí bowls in the back are massively huge for a large! I couldn't take it down! ALSO the poke store up front is crack'n off at 11am. One stop shop.

Ug find all things needed. Cheap Tall Boys, frozen treats for young ones. Ug don't know if food place inside is connected with store but recommend the poke bowl and sushi. We tried all 6 (that's right only 6) options and all were of "would eat again" quality. If in a rush or solo get a bowl and roll.

This a local market that sells almost anything you could need when visiting Kauai! We came in for water but found ourselves buying sunscreen, snacks, AND vegan soft serve!! While looking around they had a pop up shop for women's bikinis, vegan meats, bakery treats, alcohol, and almost anything else you could imagine lol! The soft serve is located in the way back of the market and it's SOOO good. Today they were serving ube and passion fruit flavors. We opted for the ube with cocoa nibs and their house granola. The soft serve was lightly sweetened which is perfect for adding toppings. Don't skip out on trying this! They also make açaí bowls.

So my girl friend aquired some coupons for Poke.When she told me where we picking up the poke I was very surprised!.The last time I've been here they didn't have the fresh poke section.So I got the spicy salmon n my girl got a poke bowl with I think it was oyster or Shoyu poke n side order fresh fern shoots.So the Spicy salmon that I got was wow!.It's the 1st time I had it made like that!.The spicy sauce that was on there was boomin!Also my girl enjoyed her poke bowl she finished her bowl n also the fern shoots was the perfect side dish.So when I'm on the south side I'll be definitely be stopping here for some poke,So They offer a variety of poke taco poke,scallop poke,Ahi poke n more!.Also cold drinks,Picnic supply's,hot food's,fresh sandwiches,local produce,meats n more!.Also they have a coffee place n also a juice bar n more!!.It's a 1 stop shop!.So when on your way to the spouting horn,Poipu beach or just wanting some Ono food?.Stop by and the friendly staff will be happy to assist you.Oh,My girl ordered from the coffee place that's in there and she liked it!..

Convenient local market. Stopped in to buy water and picked up a few things. Friendly and helpful.

We came here specifically for the poke at the little counter on the inside of the market. There were only two choices as we came late. We got the garlic ahi poke and spicy ahi poke. The garlic ahi was very good and the spicy was good. This was a good stop in Koloa.

Not the biggest market in the Koloa area. The market is smaller than Sueoka in Old Town. There's a juicery in the back of the market where there was a line. It looks like they were backed up with only 2 people working. Definitely need more help for sure. There's also a sushi counter, but it wasn't open when I was there. I think they are open around 10am.

Great food. Service was good even on weekends with a long wait line, they tried to move efficiently and get the orders out. The acai bowls were all great and worth it. Would definitely return.

Awesome little market with tons of food options around. Best poke I had inside and to the left with sushi options. This is the only shaved ice I got on the island and I regret not getting it every day, located right outside.

Good place pick up breakfast or snacks for the day and even eat your breakfast if you're staying at hotels nearby. The bento box was surprisingly fresh and there is a juice and açaí bar in the back

Local market, a lot of things were not available or open when I stopped by in the morning. Prices were not exactly cheap. They have some basic items to buy (drinks, snacks, meat, etc.) but the options are limited. I wanted to try the seafood but those areas were not open yet when I came in. Maybe next time!

The poke bowls and rolls at the kiosk just inside the entrance are amazing. Made to order and lots of options. Lots of food for a reasonable price.

Nice little market on the road towards Pouipu beach. Friendly staff, and has a juice shop inside and small eateries inside, not to mention the Mexican window order type restaurant right outside to the left. Delicious, can't go wrong. Has a limited Organic section.

We loved this place! Would totally go back and highly recommend to anyone visiting!! Great place!

Came here on a weekday and the store was maybe 40% stocked. Everything I needed to buy led to an empty shelf.

Amazing poke! Probably the best on the island! Poke is on the left side as you enter through the doors..

Super glad we found this market. If you are in the search for shave ice, poke, and a market to get your basic necessities (eggs,milk,rices,fruits,meats,etc.) You've come to the right place. This local shop has all you need, and what a plus :) for supporting your local owned shops as opposed to shopping big retailers. If you're going to vacation here, you should support the community who are local to the island. That's my belief. I truly recommend coming here for what you need.

Came here for the sushi but ended up not staying since it's not a sit down restaurant and it was raining outside. However, we ended up walking around and bought a number of goodies. They have a number of local seasonings (flavored salts and hot sauce etc) at a decent price. For one I can tell you the salty wahine spices are cheaper here than at the factory store. I ended up also getting some li hing gummies as souvenir. Li hing is powdered plum which is salty sweet. They also have a number of diamond bakery cookies which I have become a fan of since my visit to Hawaii. I had already bought the Costco shortbread pack as souvenir but wanted to try other flavors. The shortbread cookies are so good! The dark chocolate chip cookie is not really dark chocolate fyi. The kakimochi with rice bits was good and mildly sweet. They also had organized, decent priced fresh fruits and veggies.

Anakes Juice Bar is located in Kukuiula Market. Açaí bowls were delicious and workers were friendly. I recommend coming here if you're in the area. Perfect snack after the beach!

A good place if you don't wanna go to far for a market everyone is always willing to help and happy to do so.

Friendly local market with reasonable prices and a poke food stall that is excellent. Good selection of items and an obvious favorite of local residents. Mahalo!

Good breakfast burritos! Definitely recommend if you need something fast and good!!!!

The poke and açaí bowls are hands down, delish. The customer service is top notch as well! If you're expecting something very similar to what you see on the mainland as far as small local markets go, think again. This is as homegrown Hawaiian as it gets and I love it. It's an all-in-one type of deal. You can get local foods, get some standard "grocery store" type of items, and get a new outfit if you wish! 10/10 would recommend

I am giving this 5 stars because the owner is a big hearted woman who works her butt off and believes in giving local entrepreneurs a chance to establish or grow their business. This is reputed to be the only mom and pop shop left on the island and she is doing her best to fend off the corporations. From what I could tell, the prices are reasonable by Hawaii standards. Maybe everything is not as clean or upscale as the corporates like Safeway, but if you shop here you are supporting not only the family but the other businesses associated with it. The fish selection was better than what we saw at so-called fish markets. We tried some kind of bowl at Anake's Fruit bar, and it was pretty good. There is also an onsite sushi place that I cover in a separate review. Parking is hard but you deal. Support this food store.

Came here to get açaí bowl before we go back to the mainland hours in yelp said until 630pm and actually only 530!!??. Was so excited to order and walked to the back where the counter was to order and the sign read we are closed . So disappointed . However, in the front of the grocery store I ordered sushi roll and poke nachos and wow!!! Was the best tasting we are since on this island. Hole in the walls are the BEST!!! Service was fast and friendly

The store has some groceries but offerings are slim. The gem is the acai bowls at the back of the store. You order and can eat at the seats they have out next to the refrigerators. Recommend if you are on Poipu,

This unassuming market is one of my all time favorite places to visit in Kauai. Perfect place for the family as there's something for everyone: açaí bowls, poke, coffee, overnight oats, and so on.

I wish we knew about this market right when we arrived. Went to a market similar to this one first to buy some essentials for our villa (food, beer). We heard about Kukuiula Market from a local and then went there to find some fresh poke and a few other things. The poke from the stand inside was extremely fresh and tasty. Some of the best poke I've had. Also, their beer prices were more reasonable than the previous market we went to. Also, there is a fresh smoothie and acai bowl place inside here that has some of the best acai bowls you will ever have. So good!

SUPPORT LOCAL SHOP AT KUKUIULA MARKET!!! Makai Sushi and Anake's Juice Bar are also inside- I suggest supporting them too! The market has an incredible selection of groceries that meet SPECIFIC DIETARY NEEDS! So important when you're traveling. Not only that, the independent sushi and juice vendors are the bomb too! Makai Sushi has super fresh fish- and their poke bowls and sushi are delicious. Anake's Juice Bar also does açaí bowls if you're into that! Highly recommend stopping by to grab all the goodies. They even have a shaved ice vendor and Mexican food served outside the market. Literally the perfect one stop shop in Poipu Beach! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT HERE! Great customer service, friendly staff, delicious/mouthwatering groceries and food!

Quite short on supplies and very expensive even in Kauai terms, about 25% to 40% compares to other small markets in the area.

This mom and pop shop has amazing fresh local meat and fish! They have local goods from salt, honey, hot sauce to even soap and skincare. looking for some vegan products or dairy free yogurt? They have it. Don't forget to grab coffee and a bagel or an açaí bowl in the back of the store and poke bowls in the front. one of my favorite grocery stores where I can trust fresh meat and fish :)

This place is sooooo yummy. I got a large for $10 it was huge and very filling. I had the Dragon one and it was so special topped with lili koi honey. It was the perfect combo of flavors. 5 stars for service, the young lady was so sweet I changed my mine twice and she was pleasant throughout. 5 stars for quality and flavor 5 stars for the cost! It's hard to do that on an island. Oh and every bite of fruit tasted exactly as it should. ripe and delicious
