The Best Breakfast on Maui That Nobody Is Talking About
I’m just going to say it…SixtyTwo MarcKet might be the best breakfast on Maui and almost nobody outside the local crowd seems to know about it. It’s tucked away in Wailuku, which has a great local, entrepreneurial energy to it but doesn’t get much visitor traffic. And honestly, that’s part of what makes this place so good.
The whole concept is farm to table and seasonal, and I mean genuinely seasonal, not just a buzzword on a menu. The name SixtyTwo MarcKet actually comes from the fact that the menu changes every 62 days so it always features whatever’s in season on the island at that moment. It’s a really cool concept. This isn’t your typical beachy, casual Maui breakfast spot either…it’s a notch more upscale (especially foodwise) than places like the Gazebo or Kihei Caffe, while still feeling relaxed and unpretentious.

Who This Restaurant Is Perfect For…
This is a perfect brunch spot if you’re someone who wants a slightly more elevated breakfast experience without it feeling like a big production. It’s ideal if you’re spending the day exploring the Wailuku/Iao Valley side of the island rather than parking yourself at a resort all day.
Side Note: If you’re looking for a rental car for your trip, I LOVE Discount Hawaii Car Rentals. They’re seriously the only company I ever use. They’ll give you the very best prices, you don’t have to reserve with a credit card or pay until you show up, you can cancel and re-book anytime if you find a better rate, and they usually have a special that adds additional drivers for no fee. It’s a no brainer. Click here to check rates for your trip.
Honestly, it’s an amazing post hike brunch spot. If you’re tackling the Waihe’e Ridge Trail (one of my favorite hikes on Maui, by the way) or heading out to check out Iao Valley, this is a great place to refuel afterward. It’s also just a nice way to explore a part of Maui that doesn’t get nearly as much love from visitors as it should.
Extra Details
Price wise, expect it to run a little higher than your average casual Maui breakfast spot, but it’s worth it for the quality and creativity of the food. Since the menu rotates so often based on what’s in season, I can’t really give you a “must order” dish that will always be there…but that’s honestly part of the fun. Go in with an open mind and let the seasonal specials guide you.
A couple practical notes…they’re closed on Saturdays, so don’t make the mistake of planning your trip around a Saturday brunch here. And if you’re going on Sundays, I’d recommend making a reservation just to be safe.
If you’re looking to branch out from the typical tourist breakfast spots and want to explore a more local side of Maui while still eating really, really well, Marcket 62 deserves a spot on your list. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re in on a little Maui secret, and honestly… I kind of love keeping it that way.
Want the full plan, not just this post?
If you’ve read this far, you’re probably actually planning a trip to Maui…not just daydreaming. So here’s the thing: what you just read is a small piece of what I know about this island.
I’ve been visiting Maui for years, and I put everything…the itineraries, the hotel breakdowns, the restaurants actually worth your time, the spots most visitors never find…into one guide. It’s 75+ pages, built around real day-by-day plans (not just a list of “things to do”), plus an interactive map so you’re not toggling between five browser tabs trying to piece your trip together.
It’s the guide I wish I’d had on my first few trips here.
