Leah is a communications professional and macadamia nut farm owner based out of Maui, Hawaii. Having been spoiled by the culinary scenes in New York City and Los Angeles where she lived before relocating to Maui in 2013, she has spent the past few years mapping out Maui’s best brunches, Happy Hours, and everything in between. When she’s not working behind her laptop or on her farm, you can find her at the beach with her husband and their two pit bull rescues.

Open at 5am, Kihei Caffe is one of the island’s most popular breakfast spots so expect a wait for large portions of pancakes, biscuits, and scrambles.

The Pint and Cork inside The Shops at Wailea is a sports bar, but one that serves some really elevated bar food.

South Maui Fish Company is just a food truck with a couple tables and chair set up around, but it serves some of the best and freshest poke.

Sam Sato’s is only open for breakfast and lunch, and if you’re hiking at Iao Valley State Park, it’s the best place to go for a classic plate lunch.

Nalu’s South Shore Grill
We’d eat three meals a day at Nalu’s in Kihei, a casual, open-air restaurant that’s family friendly and serves the best Bloody Mary on the island.
