We went there for breakfast because of some of the reviews we read. As far as food, the pancakes and toast were a lot better than the eggs. The price was pretty good for Maui. The place was pretty worn and not very clean. Tables were sticky and so was the floor. The service was average. Bathrooms (I have a... More

Food is average, we had breakfast and dinner on different days and it was decent. Service at dinner was slow and it took some time to get the drinks. Live band was good. Overall and OK place to stop by for drinks or breakfast but there are better places to have dinner in Lahaina.

My title sounds harsh... not intended that way. Say it while shrugging your shoulders and you will have it down. :) My wife and I spent a few hours in Lahaina and stopped in the Pioneer Grill for lunch. We had a great table looking out on the Banyan tree and the boats parked along the marina! It is hard... More

We had breakfast at the Pioneer Inn Grill & Bar as we waited for the water taxi to take us to Lana'i. My omelet was average, but my wife's sweetbread french toast was pretty tasty. The one thing that kept us entertained was a parrot with a large vocabulary that was part of the ambiance. He was very vocal during... More

This is a nice, convenient place to have lunch or dinner if you're in the Lahaina wharf area.

We went to the Pioneer Inn for breakfast one morning. The main reason we went there was because it was a historic place, and a must see. Food wasn't the best, but for a quick breakfast it'll do. We enjoyed the location, but once was enough. Service on the day we went was a little bit off, but no big... More

My wife and I, and two other couples stopped at the Pioneer Inn after a day of deep sea fishing. The atmosphere was perfect. We were able to sit at a table large enough to comfortably seat all of us. We enjoyed wonderfully cold beer and delicious appetizers. The prices are very reasonable and the happy hour prices were even... More

Stopped in for Happy Hour. Beer for $3.00 and drink specials. Food was good and service was quick. View of the boats coming into the harbor was fun. Good place to people watch and have a cold drink.

After our whale watch we walked across to the Pioneer for breakfast. The prices were very reasonable w/good service. The food was good, with open air seating. It was a great place for breakfast.
