Lahaina Yacht Club

We had an amazing lunch! I had the pulled pork sandwich. It was YUMMY. My husband had the reuben which was good, but mine was better. The mai tai was exceptional. We are counting the minutes until we go to the lobster feed tomorrow night. You do have to be a member of their yacht club or a reciprocal yacht club.

Went in for lobster night and was pretty disappointed. The view of the water is nice AND the server was friendly but the food was just so-​so and was 150 bucks for three people. The soup tasted like it was out of the can and I’m
pretty sure the coconut shrimp appetizer was from a costco frozen bag. My biggest complaint is that one of the lobsters we had was not cleaned properly and after we were done eating it and lift it up we noticed that the plate was full of lobster feces, the inside vain was never taken out we told the server who showed the cook she apologized and offered a dessert is all. It was really gross seeing pretty much lobster diarrhea on your plate they claim it was the only one that happened the entire night. I think they should’ve just taken that lobster off the bill. IT WAS GROSS!!!

If you live on Maui full or even part time and do not apply for membership in this club, you are a fool. Great food, cheap beer and fun, fun members and staff. Stacey is the best. Not sure of her title but she runs the place in my mind. No matter how busy she is, there is always time to stop by your table for a chat and a laugh.
In one week, I will play in a great LYC golf tournament, celebrate Octoberfest with dancing and laughter and go out on a girl sail on Snickers, our sailboat. If you are not a member, once again you are a fool.
By the way, I hate sailing just love the club! So no need to be a seaworthy captain.

Great view, better prices for delicious food than Front Street, you don’t have to plan around happy hour to get a good value, an oasis from the cruise ship mobs, and super people wait within.
And the same view as Kimo’s.
We had the lobster night dinner and it was great.
The bar staff, Yacht Club staff, and the other guests were all a lot of fun.
And at LYC, you meet people who live on Maui, not just tourists.
There are also tourists, but it’s mostly local.
And here you can find people who made the dream come true – moved to paradise.
Bring your coozie to get your beer cooler than «Lahaina cool», or just buy one on your way in.
But if you’re not in a yacht club somewhere, you sadly can’t get through the «John Wayne» cowboy doors for long, so join a yacht club and come on in!

My husband and I ate lunch here today… The food was great and so was the service. Our waiter was very friendly and gave us a great local beach to go to. We look forward to visiting the LYC again!

We visited LYC for the 2^nd time in a few years. This time we enjoyed the fish tacos which had somewhat of a zesty bite to them. We had a nice family lunch and while we were enjoying each others company it was hard to not notice that our waiter was sweating profusely. I held my breath as my food was served, hoping that a drop of sweat didn’t land on my tacos or anywhere else for that matter. The server was nice enough but out of courtesy should be carrying around a towel to wipe the sweat from his brow and maybe an extra shirt to change into. Pitt stains are not attractive, especially on the one reaching over me to serve my food.

We have a second home here on Maui and the Lahaina Yacht Club has been a regular stop for us every time we are on Maui for past twenty years. It is for Club Members Only so you need to be an active member at another yacht club for reciprocation privileges.
We typically book reservations on Thursdays for Lobster Night. If you want that you need to do it ahead of time as they need to know how many people are having the Maine lobsters flown in for dinner.
We had the lobster dinners shown in the photo two weeks ago and while the lobsters were cooked to succulent perfection they seemed smaller than last year.
Tuesday night is Prime Rib Night so the next week we went back and four of us had just that, the prime rib dinner. I had the end cut and it was so flavorful and so tender I could cut it with a fork. The other cuts were all large portions and cooked perfectly as they all ordered rare.
You can’t beat the view and while other restaurants on Front Street boast waterfront dining the Lahaina Yacht Club is not just water front, they are over the water literally. I like it when on the rare visit there is some large swells that roll up and break below the floor splashing a few drops of ocean up between the floor slats.
As fellow yacht club members at Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club in Corona del Mar, California having LYC to escape the crazy tourist crowds and get a table with a view is a perk that shouldn’t be missed.

I was visiting a friend in Lahaina and she had a two week pass to the Yacht Club. I am always a fan of the Yacht Clubs, wherever they may be. Cheap prices and friendly staff and Lahaina was no different. Our bartender was super friendly and gave us a bunch of recommendations for food nearby for breakfast. The drinks are tasty and so affordable. We wanted to stay all day to enjoy the gorgeous views of the ocean.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again; «I love Yacht Clubs!» Some day it is my goal to open one! The Santa Barbara Yacht Club is in the harbor, every Wednesday they have the races and the racers come in after to brag and drink! The Lahaina Yacht club is nesteled between tourist restaurants at the absolute best location in Maui! Weekly races? I don’t think they do… but they still have the people who come in to brag and drink! They have a solid group of regulars. They have movie nights and fishing tournaments!
We are occasional members taking full advantage of the temporary memberships which I wholeheartedly reccomend! They are extremely reasonable and all you need is a member to sponsor you. With it you get to proudly walk past the «members only» sign and eat and drink for half of what you would be paying next door. We enjoy the kayaks that are free to members and most of all we enjoy getting to know the people who are lucky enough to call Lahaina their home.
See you next year LYC!

Dec/​12. Dinner. Been coming for years. Be a member (inexpensive), get a guest card from a member or be a guest of a member.
Be prepared to enjoy yourself and have some fun. Thursday lobster by reservation.
The club sponsors many charitable events.
Relax, enjoy yourself and your friends.

Great place to grab a Mai Tai. Hands down the best Maui Tai in all of Maui. However the catch is you need to be a member. This means either becoming friends with a fisherman or dealing with a drunk sailor. Oh, the foods pretty good as well.

The Yacht Club store is a sublet that is lacking.
It has standard «fill in the blank» t shirts for sale. You can buy them in Alaska, Boston or Miami.
Too bad.

A welcome rest amid the hustle and bustle of Front Street. Members or Reciprocal Members only. Reserve for Lobster Night on Thursdays. A favorite of locals and visitors. My fav is the Ahi Tuna BLT at lunch time. Charlie is now a manager and she has a hands on ability to keep the service in top notch order. Great spot that we frequent several times on our visits to Maui. Great job!

If you’re a Yachtclub member this is the place to be, They’re fishing tournament they’re selling contest their benefit to charity never boring down there. We come every week for their famous lobster night. Dave and Charlotte take care of us very well. I love how their menu would changes every six months to keep the food fresh and exciting.

We have been there twice and both times we felt like family! The service is great and the food is top notch. We have had the hamburgers, caprese salad with ahi, the Thursday lobster as well as many appetizers and a few deserts. The drinks are always on the mark and the wait staff very helpful. If your a fellow yacht club member you owe it to yourself to duck into this oasis on Front street, relax and let the great crew there take care of you!

How can you complain about a place that exists in paradise and serves both great food and tropical adult beverages???
Reciprocal privileges to other yacht club members or get a guest pass from a current member of LYC.
The standard greeting is «Welcome Home!»
Da kine

A Members Only Club, but visiting yachtsman and other Yacht Club members are always welcome. The Staff is very friendly and there to see you have a good time. Nice place to duck out of the hustle and bustle of Front Street. 8 beers on tap and a full (very full) bar will help quench your thirst with the cheapest drink prices in town and the (very) small Galley puts out terriffic food at a very reasonable price. Prime Rib night on Tuesday, Lobster night on Thursdays — Reservations a must. they sponsor a Junior Sailing program in Summer which is open to all the Youth of Lahaina, and I just heard they donate scholarships to Lahainaluna High School students. Oh, and 5 flat panel TV’s with a 50″ right over the bar makes it great for watching your favorite sport. No Children on Sundays as the Galley’s closed — thanks to the local Liqour Control Board.

Enjoyed the amazing views and friendly service! The crab stuffed mahi mahi and monchong specials were wonderful. Loved the mashed potatoes. Great prices. Would definitly come back!

Re an earlier reviewer, the store is no longer inside the club and is now a separate store on Front St. They do have some unique hats, shirts and other souvenirs different from the rest of the stores in town.
The bar is fairly lively, more so on Friday nights. Food is pretty good and very reasonable. Very friendly members. Best of all: it’s a great location smack in the center of Front St., right on the ocean with beautiful views of Lanai, etc. Rustic old Lahaina décor. Members only, unless you’re visiting from another yacht club.

Probably the most commercial yacht club I’ve ever visited. It’s all set up to sell merchandise for visiting tourists. In fact, it was so crowded every time I tried to go there that I’ve never had the patience to wait out the crowd. Then again, I chose to go there in prime tourism hours. But nonetheless, it has a great location right by the water and a table by the deck and enjoy a cool drink with the blue Pacific Ocean right there would have been great. So reluctantly, minus two stars for being so inaccessible.
