Mana Foods

Every time I visit Paia, I make a point to stop by Mana Foods. They have the best selection of holistic foods. I can always trust the products they carry are natural. The pricing is fair considering what other health foods stores charge these days. The coffee bar at the front to has great drinks.

This place is absolutely fantastic. They have such a great selection of natural foods. It’s very fairly priced and lower than in town. The only thing I saw more expensive was the pineapple was cheaper at Whole Foods super vegan friendly so many baked goods. I wish I could shop here all the time.

The store has a cozy, welcoming vibe that sets it apart from larger chains, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for Maui. Their bakery and deli section is a real treat, offering fresh, delicious options. However, parking can be challenging, so plan accordingly. Despite this, Mana Foods has quickly become a favorite for its snacks, drinks and dedication to quality, making it a must-visit for both locals and visitors seeking healthy, flavorful groceries.

What I thought was Paias best bakery turned out to be the worst. I purchased over $30 worth of cupcakes from the bakery and they were so dry you could actually choke on them. Extremely disappointed in the lack of flavor, especially the dryness, and the amount that I purchased them for.

My husband and I spent a week in Paia and ate many of our meals from Mana- their hot bar had a wide variety of entrees and salads- all prepared fresh daily with organic foods. It was certainly nice to be able to eat healthy while still enjoying the beauty of the island of Maui.

An alternative to whole foods in Maui that's what I would call it. Fresh food and salads to go in boxes, huge selection of organic selections like jams and chocolates. The fruits and vegetables are sourced locally and have distinct taste of Hawaii. I took my breakfast in boxes which was healthy and delicious. Also the leeches and mangoes were truly delicious.

A full grocery store with just about everything you need. Kind and helpful staff.

Great market and deli! The deli especially is great for vegan or vegetarians. Perfect place to pick up a picnic to enjoy on the road to Hana

Review is for the food bar. We got a couple salads and a hot eggplant parm meal. Excellent price for the area and the food was awesome.

This is a special store for food and nutrition in Paia. A village town. Today I came for ginseng vials I knew they had. Good for energy and stamina Daily with coffee.

A solid health food place with a good cold and hot bar. Pricey but definitely better quality than Whole Foods. Love supporting a local business too! In a cute area, parking can be hard. Got the tofu spring rolls which were packed full, only complaint is that they fell apart very easily.

As a resident of Maui for over 20 years I'm very sad to say Mans Foods customer service, quality of prepared foods and availability of local and organic foods has decreased significantly. Not to mention the complete lack of enough parking for customers. I will now be shopping at Whole Foods.

Nice Paia neighborhood grocery store and market. Has a lot of essential items, including anything you may have forgot to pack, and food in their deli. Could use some brightening up with a window or two in the front and kind tight and narrow in the aisles, but nice to pop in for a drink and a loaf of bread.

Great Little Hidden Gem for all things Vegan unless you live in Paia. Mana Foods is always a must-visit destination when we come to Maui. It is a hidden gem for those of us who are looking for delicious Vegan options. I highly recommend visiting here even if you are not Vegan. Eat, Drink and Be Merry, my Friends!!!

We were driving back from Hana and stopped in Paia to walk the downtown area which has a bunch of inviting shops, art galleries and restaurants. Originally looking for a place to stop and eat, I noticed this grocery store that had been recommended by our friends who live in Kihei. It's a very nice grocery store where you can pick up a lot of healthy, organic type foods both prepared and packaged. I got a pea salad and my husband an egg salad sandwich. The salad was zesty and refreshing and the sandwich was a little dry but it did the job. I was happy to pick up our meal here instead of spending an hour eating inside a restaurant. Don't get me wrong, this is a very cute area but sometimes you just want to get your food to-go quickly and continue with your afternoon.

Mana Foods in Paia, Maui, is a must-stop for provisions before heading out on the road to Hana. With a wide selection of whole foods and a tempting array of baked goods, it's a reliable spot to stock up for your journey. The store boasts a large honey selection, perfect for those seeking local flavors, and whole foods. However, don't count on finding Maui Onion chips or POG here. Overall, Mana Foods provides a convenient and satisfying shopping experience for travelers.

The place has a little bit of everything and a lot of somethings (prepared/ready to eat food). There is a huge supplement area and all types of vegan/vegetarian selections. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable.

Chefs kisseverything you need and more. This lil gem saved me when I was super hangry and had so many delish options.

Wonderful selection of prepared foods, produce, home-made baked goods, vitamins/personal care and standard groceries- with extremely fair prices (particularly for Maui). We drive several times during each vacation in Kaanapali to Pa'ia specifically to load up @ Mana. I have never encountered any team Mana member who is not kind, knowledgeable and most helpful. Mana is yet another reason why we return to Maui again & again.

Great selections, The best prices, community oriented, local providers, been shopping there for close to 35 years- forget about Whole Foods!!

Always enjoy the baked goods and hot and cold deli items at Mana foods. We have terrible Diet Pepsi habit which they don't accommodate but I won't complain because everything else is so good. Today I enjoyed again the Cinnamon buns for breakfast, ham sandwich and a noodle salad at lunch. There were some great looking burritos and veggies on the hot bar and the make your own salad had fresh greens and extras as well. People are so nice and interesting. They have clean and bright bathrooms for customers, a family one with room to change the little one, and if you are patient parking can usually be found on street or adjacent lot. Be respectful of the lot and your time in store. Enjoy

When in Paia, life slows down a little, everything takes forever, traffic is always at a standstill, there's no parking anywhere, nobody answers their phone so you can't place a takeout order.....and I HATE IT. So if you are hungry/hangry after Haleakalā and irritated with the above situation too, stop at Mana Foods. This is a health food small grocery store, that is like Down to Earth mixed with a bit of Whole Foods. The hot food deli had a few unique items like quinoa nut balls, some type of vegan tofu curry thing, but also had real chicken Thai curry and rosemary (real) chicken! There was a cold salad bar with a few great salad options, I got the long rice salad and some tofu watercress thing. Not my ideal meal but better than fast food (which is non existent in Paia anyway). I also grabbed some interesting snacks from the shelves, a curry Mochi rice crunch snack, and some vegan "blondie" cubes in the frig by the register. Also grabbed a "zero sugar" cola since they had no Coke Zero for my hubby haha. He's not appreciative of the unique items they carry here. You won't find any brands here that have TV commercials. What you will find is a unique health foods store.

Nice guy who works in the deli. Some of the cashiers/juice girls are California-style rude, but the grocery and deli guys make up for it. . . Food is legit. Mana is OG.

This full service natural and organic grocery store is like a Tardis inside - it is much bigger and more extensive than you can imagine from the outside. They have a deli, bakery, full produce section, supplements, body care, bulk bins, food bar, meats, household items and all the usual brands of natural and organic foods plus many locally made food items. There is also a great selection of gluten free and vegan pastries and snacks and the prices are similar or only slightly more than in Kahului for the same organic items. I had a wheat free oat muffin that was very good, not too sweet and loaded with large juicy raisins and will make this a regular stop in the future.

In the center of Pa'ia town is Mana Foods - and thank goodness it is! It's a perfect spot to stop in amidst exploring the beautiful town for a snack or some mid-trip shopping for nutritional options and organic health items. I stopped in the cafe for a morning coffee and açaí bowl, which was absolutely delicious. It wasn't sugary at all, and was quite fresh and flavorful with all the fruits and flavors blended. The service was quick, efficient and employees were very happy to assist and extremely friendly. There were options for all individuals of all different diets. This is a staple worth visiting for locals and tourists in the area.

Not sure why this is such an often recommended stop on the road to Hana. Found the staff to be a bit abrasive. Plenty of off brand health food and premium snacks. Would've preferred stocking up at the Costco in Kahului.

On a whim walking around town I stumbled across this amazing grocery store. Filled with local favorites, fresh fruit, hot food and cold food delights. For the vegan heart, naturalist and or the carnivore this store has everything under the moon. Although, it appears small don't let the outside fool you. Fully stocked with everything you need it reminded me of Trader Joe's and sprouts. After pacing through the aisles I grabbed some fresh fruit and local treats to eat at the hotel! It's always on my list to hit the local stores I always find such amazing treats to bring home. TIP: as a San Diego local the bitchin sauce is made in town and I was so pleased to see it in the store. It is made with almonds it's vegan, gluten free and kosher! That may scare non vegans but trust me it's amazing. Hot or cold severed in sandwiches, dip for veggies or smeared on chicken, fish or any protein! It's absolutely amazing!!! It was a slice of home while I was on vacation!! Enjoy!

What a great small food mart for food before heading over to road of Hana. They have the hot food section and drinks like coffee and smoothies. They also have a full grocery section with fresh fruits and convenient household items. All of the employees are nice and helpful. This is such a small town and packed with hecka cars

Hot and cold food bar in the back left area of the restaurant. Very pricey but so is everything on Maui. Literally best tofu I've ever had, in terms of texture and taste. Plus so many options to choose from. Not sure if they have a place to sit and eat anywhere as we couldn't find it and just gave up and went to sit in the AC in our car. Would definitely return.

This supermarket is better than all the organic health stores I've ever shopped in. I was staying in Paia for a few days so I frequented this grocery store many times. It's not huge, and all their items are affordable from hot foods, baking goods, and fresh produce. It's located in a tourists oriented area where shopping for items to cook at home won't break the bank. I had stopped to pick up a pepperoni pizza in the back of the store where they served hot items. It looked a little dried up from being under the heat lamp, but tasted wonderful. Never judge a book by its cover. The size was generous, and I think the ingredients were healthy:) It was big enough to cut into two slices and share with a friend. Another time I stopped in was to grab some of their hot items that were sold by weight. I believe it was a mix of chicken, broccoli, kale, coleslaw, and etc to bring to the beach. Oh it was goood! There is also wraps, sandwiches, and salads to choose from if your not feeling hot foods. I also revisited with my friend to show her the baking goods. She and I bought the lilikoi bar cake.;) I decided to stock up and grabbed the macadamia nut pie, spelt chocolate chip cookie, and vegan dream bar. I now wished I had bought more pies and vegan bars...lol The cashier and employees are friendly and very aloha. I will be back!! Love love this local grocery store!!

This was THE BEST! So many options out there at Mana's I love they still have a hot bar and serve you! I think it's amazing this store serves the best wholesome food! I always come back to this store when on Maui and go all the time to enjoy the coffee and hot food bar they have. They have things like Pizza, burritos, salad bar, EVERYTHING hot like quinoa, rice, beans and so much more!

Okay so first off this place has been a lifesaver since the shortage on formula. They had the EXACT formula I needed for my baby while every store on island that would usually have it was out of stock. Thank you thank you! Second, these smoothies I got were absolutely amazing! I wish I remembered the names :( but my husband ordered them. I wasn't very crazy about the spinach filo but it could be just pregnancy taste buds. All in all we really enjoyed what we got here :)

This store has the largest selection of chocolate I've ever seen! As well as a great selection of lentils, and dry foods in a dispenser. Fresh ground local coffee. Lots of healthy options here.

I wandered into this sorta "health food market", as it was just next door from the Bank of Hawaii (Paia Branch). Been up since 4:30 AM, and when 11:30 AM rolled around.................I was really HANGRY man, as I didn't eat anything before I rushed out of da house to catch a early flight to Maui that day. Mana Foods is located in the heart of Paia town, and walked into this little supermarket, I could clearly see that this market features organic, gluten free, vegan options, & dairy free types of grindages. Well normally, it's not the type of store I would regularly shop at, but since I was so hungry I was hoping to find something I could just grab and eat quickly. Lucky for me, this health food store has a pretty sizable pre-made "hot food" section within the store. Hell, health food or not.................I hangry, so I gonna EAT, Period! Upon looking at the pre-made hot food section, I decided to get some Egg Fried Rice, Organic Mixed Vegetables, & some Turkey Meatballs in Marinara sauce, and for dessert...................I got myself a Vegan Chocolate Cake. What can I say about the grindages - The pre-made food from the hot food bar was OUTSTANDING my friends! If you didn't tell me it was healthy, organic, or whatever...............I wouldn't have even known the difference! And the Vegan Chocolate Cake I had later for dessert................this is vegan??? You Coulda fooled me my friends, cuz it certainly tasted like a regular chocolate cake.............even the texture of the cake tasted like a regular chocolate cake. Who is this baking master????? I wanna shake your hand, cuz that chocolate cake was outstanding!!! Well, sometimes you just gotta try new things..................and I must say Mana Foods certainly serves up some yummy pre-made hot foods!

I love that this local grocery has halva and some of my most favorite imported foods. Sometimes you just need a specialty item and mana offers a great selection of local organic produce as well as fine imported delights! I'm also very impressed with their supplements department. Truly a blessing on the north shore.

Hippy, healthy, and vegan deli market; at the (clock-wise) jump-off for the ROAD TO HANA. On Maui's laid-back north shore.

Mana Foods is the best value on Maui compared to Whole Foods and Down to Earth. Sure, there are a lot of hippies and it seems like those hippies whip out their EBT cards and talk about how "bad" the Mainland is. It's irritating; but, I'll ignore and tune them out whenever I go there. It's similar to Berkeley Bowl on the Emeryville/Berkeley border in the bay except Mana Foods is much more cramped and much smaller. Still, their prices are competitive and very affordable for Maui. It's worth the drive wherever you are. Remember, it's not that far from Kahului, Upcountry, or Kihei. Heck, when I lived in Napili; I'd drive to Mana Foods periodically. When I was pregnant with my youngest five years ago, I stocked up on vegan/organic/GF prenatal vitamins here because it was cheaper than any store in the bay and Amazon!

While I appreciate the vegan options they do have at this location, nothing really mind blowing when it comes to their hot food and sweets. Hot food options were non existent in general at 4:30 when the store front closes at 8:30. The bakery department was completely closed as well. Pricing is a bit higher than traditional stores and we were able to find a coconut and a chocolate vegan cookie that was delicious as well as a dream bar. Other than that a lot of their vegan options were very underwhelming. A nice small market that caters to all, just a bit underwhelming and disappointing when it came to selection with four hours left until close.

I really enjoyed this place. It had all of the groceries and specialty items that I wanted (and could ever dream of) and everything was very reasonably priced. It reminded me of Whole Foods (my love child and fave place ever) but...like the original Whole Foods! The staff was super friendly and helpful. There was a parking lot as well as street parking available. They have a deli with hot food, a whole vitamin/supplement area, a whole refrigerated section of Kombuchas and other health elixirs, and a smoothie area. I grabbed a cocoa pod, fresh lychee and lognan berries and a fresh beet and berry blended juice. I also got a sandwhich from the deli for the picnic I was en route to! #Allpraises I.Love.This.Space.

I grew up on Maui, but I've never actually gone to Mana Foods up until a few weeks ago. Haha! I've heard lots about it, read the reviews, and fiiiinally, I made it guys! After a spontaneous dinner in Paia which honestly left me feeling like I wasn't even in Hawaii (lol), I just became super curious about my surroundings and Mana Foods was part of that. I didn't even have anything specific in mind to buy, I just wanted to see what it was like inside. It's an older establishment. The aisles are a bit more cramped, but not claustrophobic. They've got you covered on all the basics like fruits & veggies, dairy, drinks, meat, baked goods. They even have a hot food line, a bakery, large selection of health supplements, and an incredible selection of bulk food items. I guess it's the biggest bulk food selection in the state of Hawaii and features things like organic coffee beans, baking supplies, grains, beans, pastas, Mana's own mix of trail mixes, organic freshly ground nut-butters. It was all very foreign to me, but really interesting nonetheless. It's a health food store and there are so many different options. I'm not the healthiest person and this isn't really my normal, but I still found a lot of things that I would get and the prices weren't too shabby. I was actually surprised to find Loacker Vanilla Wafers there which was perfect because I was craving them for some weird reason. Hehe. We also got some cheese and cured meat that we don't normally see in other stores and my family & I enjoyed it over the course of a few days. Yum! All in all, good market that should meet most of your grocery shopping needs. It's like a Whole Foods, but you'll find more local grown/local made things here!

I usually tell anyone that is going to Maui to go to Pa'ia and stop at Mana Foods. I tell them that it's my FAVORITE health food store EVER. It feels like an old school, original health food store with great produce and products. This trip I went into Mana 3 times and had a negative experience 2 out of the 3 times. It was the staff, super cranky and rude. Couldn't get a smile out of the 2 different checkers I had. This bums me out beyond words. I don't know if the tourists have been super rude lately, in that case I get it, but man, it sucked to be iced out and frowned at like that.

Stopped I here to get a few items and a healthy cold drink. I was amazed at the selection of organic and health wise drinks. The hot food trays were well prepped and did make me hungry despite me just eating a hour earlier. Wish I had of come here. Aisles are very narrow which did remind me exactly of the aisles of a Vons store on Catalina island. I did like the little antiquated registers. Kinda reminded me of an old country store as well. Did admire the enjoyable service This is a great health food store.

This place has the best produce and also the tastiest "healthy" chocolates (better prices than other places!). Also love their supplement section and the wonderful folks that work there!

I'm obsessed with this grocery store and wish I could have brought it home with me! We were staying near downtown Paia and someone from our family came here at least once per day every day of our week-long trip! Some of my favorite parts: - I think the food options and prices are the best I've seen on Maui. The selection is like mainland Whole Foods but I think the prices are better. - The $7 Paia Sunrise bowl with lilikoi blended in and lots of fresh fruit and granola on top was such a good breakfast option - The hot and cold salad bars offer delicious choices from curry tofu, to papaya salads, to artichoke ravioli, to tons of other amazing options - There are good options for sunscreens, etc. in their pharmacy but those seem a bit pricier Also worth noting that I don't think they sell alcohol but there's a good liquor store just a couple blocks up the street. Enjoy!

I've been shopping at this store for just about 30 years. It continues to be the BEST store for organic produce, supplements and surplus. They have the best prices of anywhere on the island. I drive down once a month and stock up on my grains, pastas, sauces and asian ingredients. Also, their salad bar and entree bar are wonderful. Did I mention their deserts? TIP: Paia is busy, thus for parking, you can either use paid parking and always get a spot (east of the store) or get there before 10 or after 3 and park in the parking lot right next to it. Good people, knowledgeable people and if they don't have what you need in stock, they'll get it asap!

Best healthy products business in all islands. Buyer savvy. Building fits in community theme. Supports the local ambiance.

I'm considering moving to Maui just for Mana. Picture... the original Whole Foods? Or your local co-op on steroids. I walked in for juice* and spent nearly an hour wandering, mostly in the produce section. DID YOU KNOW... there are dozens of types of avocados native to Hawaii?! Neither did I, til I stood shivering in the vegetable crisper aisle of Mana reading an informational poster on the varieties before stepping over to the avocado shelves (!) to make my selections. White sapote. Seaweed asparagus. Apple bananas. Jackfruit. Oh my god, those Maui gold pineapples. Less pineapple than spiky, golden orb of perfectly pH-ed sugar. I'll never eat a pineapple like that again. *Go! get the juice. Even if looking at produce for an entire laundry cycle of time isn't your typical Saturday afternoon, at least pop in for these heavenly nectars. Beet celery ginger? Oh yes. But above all the ginger-laden mixes I tried during my week in Paia, I kept coming back to the pure grapefruit juice. Don't under estimate the power doing something simple, well.

Super awesome selection on organic, gluten free, dairy free grocery. Very reasonable prices. Also a solid hot food bar. Had some of the best Pad Thai ever there last week. Workers are helpful and knowledgeable. Parking can be nuts but if you're smart or willing to walk you should be fine, although if you're not familiar with Paia or the Paia-type good luck ;)

We love this market! It's such a loving place. As soon as you walk in the door you feel like a local as everyone working there is so kind and helpful. They have an excellent and seasonal produce selection in addition to everything you need to prepare a meal. They have excellent already prepared foods ready to go pretty much all day. I do wish they had more options in that section however that were vegan but I'm not complaining. They did open a completely vegan/raw restaurant kitchen inside the market called Maka by Mana. It's outstanding to be honest. The bowls here are so amazing, fresh, hearty and filled with love during their making. I cannot recommend visiting this space within the market more highly. The bowls we had, nearly every day of our stay in Paia were so amazing. I wish I could have one right now! They have great smoothies and cold brew they make in-house that's just fantastic. Love to this place and everyone working there. We'll be back as soon as we can.

This amazing and stocked well organic-health food market is located in the beautiful town is Paia and was our meeting point when biking down from Haleakala park. We came here to get drinks and locally made baked good such as banana bread and muffins. Staff is very friendly and the baked goods were delicious. They have a hot food area with different alternatives to satisfy anyone's particular taste and many popular brands for whatever your needs might be.

Mana Foods is a local grocery in the town of Paia. It's easy to miss because of the small entrance door. It's great for specialty coffee and locally baked goods. I wish it had more locally grown produce when I visited it. Prices are reasonable and cheaper than Foodland.

Love coming here when in Paia, great selection across the board and good prices depending on what you're looking for. Prices are better than Whole Foods on certain items. Love all the specialty items and local brands! I am taking off one star unfortunately for the vitamin/supplement room. It's been a handful of times where the energy of the staff there especially this one woman, I am not sure of her name but she has very angry and rude energy. Every time I step foot into this room and see her, I immediately want to leave because of her tone of voice and the looks she gives to me and other customers. I was even starting to think she just really hated me!

To not give Mana foods five stars would be kind of a travesty it is a unique grocery store in a world of formulaic cookie cutter corporate grocery distributors.they have a large number of unique alternative products non-GMO organic grass-fed they have one of the more extensive vitamin and supplement rooms on the island they have a decent bakery which really is an end cap near the checkout counters they have a unique meat department with venison from Molokai their produce department is probably the best on the island with a mix of conventional and organic products they also have a unique chocolate section candy section more teas than anyone could possibly choose to drink in their lifetime now we go on to the staff and I think there's a ying and a yang the checkers are extremely patient people for work with a wide range of paia customers. The people who stock the shelfs are more like warehouse and distribution workers they're sociable but with each other they can be helpful but they're more interested in putting the products on the shelf. This is a for-profit business it is not a food co-op but it has a bit of that food co-op vibe. Really a unique compact grocery alternative business in the heart of paia.

Fairly affordable for a health market. Wide selection of different products to choose from, including a hot foods bar that's efficient and has tasty yet healthy options. Very easy to spend a lot of time in here!

Love the food bar -- different every day with some staples and always delicious options for all kinds of foodies. Thank you!

LOUSY PRODUCE...bought oranges and lemons and just should not have...they were outright OLD and pithy...they didn't look that hot in the box but I was thinking, 'well, says they're 'local'...', maybe not pretty but should be ok, this is Mana Foods. right? oooh wrong...who ever is running the produce either doesn't know his/her stock or really just doesn't care...I'm opting for the latter because when I called, the produce guy was just 'yeah, ok' meh....I can get better organic at ol Safeway...get it together, Mana...show some PRIDE!!

Amazing little store! Looks small from the outside but is much bigger once you enter in. Lots of delicious and fresh options. Friendly staff, great location.
