The Best Places to Drink in Maui, by the Record

9 places in the record

The best places to drink in Maui, by the professional record: Food & Wine, ʻAipono Awards, and The Pinnacle Guide have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Esters Fair Prospect comes out on top, and the record runs deepest in Kihei and Lahaina.

Pilina and Tikehau Lounge hold the next two places. ʻAipono Awards shows up on more of this list than any other guide, with Bon Appétit next.

          Best Place Score
