Kilauea General Store

This was the closest market to our rental in Volcano. We didn’t feel like eating out and there is no fast food restaurants nearby.
This market is expensive. But, you are paying for convenience and the fact that you don’t have to drive to Hilo. They have a very small selection of goods.
We picked up some frozen burritos and a $ 5 bag of Cheetos. They also sell gas.

A solid stop to get what you need here. Fuel for your car, for your stomach. They sell a bit of everything. We picked up an energy drink, coffee, and a hot cocoa. Glad we got the hot cocoa because it was chilly back in Kilauea!

This place has amazing sandwiches and mac nut bars. Really a shocker. Get the sandwiches, bread is awesome. We grabbed teo as a snack for kids and after trying a bite went in to get two more. 7 bucks each

It is as advertised, general. They have a few of everything, if you’re willing to pay for it.

Stopped for gas and snacks at the great little spot. Had honest service and delicious local treats!

Perhaps before you start bashing tourists, you should check to see if any are about to spend over $ 100 there before you tick them off and cost yourself a sale. The woman who was going off at the lip walked between me and the clothes (with their logo on them) with her empty crock pots several times and seemed to do it to shoo us out of there. Not a problem lady. After that attitude, there’s no way in heck I would pay $ 40+ for your zip up fleece to advertise for you!
Go up the street to Volcano Store where you’re treated like ohana whether you’re local or not. We went there 4x and were always greeted with a smile and their prices are much better too.

This is such a cute little store. They have it all, even the cutest little red mascot kitty who lives in the parking lot. Go for the coffee and snacks, stay for the kitty :)
PS: Damn good lattes too :)

Kind of a cute little place with a nice variety of local foods for bringing home with you — mac nut candies, jams, curds [or fruit butters] — and otherwise basically your normal convenience store, but with some stuff we don’t see on the mainland. Attached to it is a little deli with some baked foods — I hear the pastries are excellent but we didn’t see any the day we were here. We did get subs to take with us to the park, however, and at about six bucks they are average priced, but they are pretty big sandwiches. Choice of meat, cheese, veggies, condiments, and bread — not special maybe, but worth the price, definitely.

Great place to stock up on anything you need while in the Volcano area. Lots of food, snacks, frozen food, pharmacy items, wine… I think they even had movie rentals. I had one of the best lattes ever at the coffee window where they will also make sandwiches for you that you can take to go to the park. Behind the coffee window there is an area where they have delicious looking homemade breads — banana macadamia nut, pumpkin, etc. Wish we would have gotten some!

If you are on your way to the see the lava flow at Volcano National Park, this is one place I suggest you stop along your way. They have a variety of local products/​specialty foods that tourists like… tropical fruit jams, Kona coffee, etc. One of my favorite finds here was the passion fruit butter spread, «Liliko’i Gold» for $ 5.69 a jar. I wished I had gotten about a dozen to ship home, as it was delicious. If you like passion fruit, pick some up. They usually have some local arts and crafts for sale, as well.
If you are looking for the essentials, you can find them here, too. They sell gasoline (usually a little pricey) You can also grab a cup of coffee to go… freshly brewed Kona coffee… and it was the most affordable cup of coffee in the area. Definitely worth checking out.
