All food tasted great and the colors and presentation were awesome. Skip being an animal product eating little [censored] for 1 day and stop in here for some great vegan food!

Pros: All vegan

Awesome!!

Great place to go for good vegan food. Everything was made fresh— I had the avocado toast and soba bowl and they were both delicious! The staff were super nice and so was the restaurant cat. Definitely recommend trying smoothies as well, really good.

Amazing

Love it! Cute seating, flavorful food, and love that they are super eco conscious. I tried their daily special which was a croissant with cheese and meatballs. Absolutely divine and filling!

Pros: Flavorful food, Lots of dessert options

Cons: Bathroom located outside in the strip mall

The Hype is Justified

After a trying vacation with my husband’s family where their dietary preferences were in constant opposition to ours, we decided to ditch them and treat ourselves to a’a Roots Cafe for breakfast. We could not have made a better decision. The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and colorful. I played with a charming shop kitty while sipping the best smoothie I’ve had on the islands to date. After enjoying an indulgent chocolate croissant (dessert always comes before breakfast, right?), my husband and I chowed down on two warm breakfast burritos. This place is a gem and well worth the visit. Don’t hesitate!

Pros: Delicious, Healthy, Fresh

Cons: No hot tea 😢, But there’s a lovely cafe next door! 🍵

This place needs a sixth star!!!

If you want to feel great on your vacation eat here! Lots of vegan and gluten free options. I wish I found this place on the first day of our vacation. I really wish this place was in my home town!!! Although I’d probably just quit cooking if it were.

Pros: Lots of vegan gluten free options , relaxing fun place, Huge portions, amazing value!!!

Peaceful & Delicious

We found A'a Roots Health Cafe on Happy Cow. My family and I made sure to visit while staying in Ka'anapali. This place was a delight. Funny thing is that we met an employee two days before while in Lahaina. We saw him again at the restaurant. This place is heavenly. Very eclectic and unique. Each of us tried something different. We enjoyed everything we ate. I would probably eat here everyday if I lived in Napili. This place is a must if you want to eat healthy.

Pros: All delicious, All healthy, Awesome customer service

Most Beautiful Food

I want to move to Maui just so I can be a regular customer here. The food was really beautiful--a feast for the eyes. It was delicious, and the staff was super friendly. Great vibe. I went back to my hotel and told the concierge to send everyone here!

Absolutely a MUST

This cafe is absolutely phenomenal!!! The food was so delicious (I got avocado toast, but tried some of my family’s meals!) & the atmosphere is really inviting!! With the entire restaurant being vegan, it’s so nice to be able to have such a variety of delicious options! Everything was fresh & cooked perfectly & the staff were so friendly! The only downside was that near the t-shirts, there were piles of fresh bananas that were home to many large spiders, so if you’re scared of that, avoid that area! A little pricey but that’s to be expected with a place sourcing fresh produce! I can not recommend enough!

Pros: All vegan menu, Variety of options, Friendly staff

Amazing!!!!!

This is without a doubt one of the best restaurant/cafes I have ever visited, not only when it comes to food but also the service and the overall vibe. When this place came up on Happy Cow while I was here on vacation, the great reviews already set my expectations very high. Yet, when I actually visited the place, I was still beyond impressed, and ended up going there every day for 6 days in a row. Everything from the smoothie bowls and Sunday waffles, to the bagels and Buddha bowls tasted absolutely phenomenal, and everyone was super friendly. If you’re in the area, DEFINITELY stop by!

Pros: Everything is vegan, Delicious food, Great vibe and friendly staff

The only vegan place in Maui. The portions are big and filling.

If you compare this place to the other vegetarian places close by, this one will fill you up for about the same price.

Pros: Dog friendly

Great Fresh Food

Yummy food. Everything is fresh and the environment is super friendly. Honestly everything was amazing, the only thing that bugged me was the smell. It smelt really bad in there. Maybe I just went on the wrong day? I don’t know. It was just hard to eat such delicious food while smelling something so gross. But if the smell doesn’t bother you- go and eat here! The food is amazing and so fresh!
