Enjoy the view as well as a pre-made sandwich or a slice of pizza at this
gourmet market perched on the side of the volcano. You'll also find wine, chocolate,

crepes $4-13; 7am-9pm Wed-Sun)
One of Maui's top pastry chefs hangs his shingle here.
Even if you're not hungry, swing by to pick up a ham-and-cheese croissant or some flaky
chocolate-filled pastries for that Haleakala picnic. The chèvre green salads are a Kula
treat to savor. Coming from Pukulania, turn left off Hwy 37 onto Kaa St then turn right
onto Lower Kula Rd and drive ¼ mile.

The airy and welcoming Kula Bistro offers a globally inspired
menu, with an emphasis on pasta and Hawaiian favorites. The menu is a bit too eclectic -
from Chinese chicken salad to Cajun-style mahimahi on focaccia to dry mein to shrimp
scampi - but the food is solid and filling after a day of exploring the national park.
Crater Coffee
COFFEE CART

morning climb to see the Haleakalā sunrise, it's nice to see a smiling face. Especially if
that smiling face is selling a hot cup of Maui Coffee Roasters java. This friendly coffee
cart parks in front of Kula Marketplace on Hwy 377. There's a bathroom in the building
behind the kiosk.
