A really cute store with a nice selection of groceries. Be sure to swing on by to pick up your next meal items. There are also art pieces and assorted items to pick up as gifts too!

Great experience at Locavore. We were able to stock up on all-local supplies for a couple of meals at our rental. Fresh fruits and veggies are available along with frozen, well priced meats (wonderful ribeye), etc. There are plenty of packaged items for snacks, gifts, or souvenirs. Super friendly service to boot!

Mask obsessed shop. Also one of the employees asked me if I ever tasted avocado. Weird.

Very local, pretty original. It is my go to place for delicious organic Family Farm apple bananas. Ripe, full and firm. But they also have local beauty products, frozen meats and fish and even local granola, to go with local fresh fruits and veggies.

Amazing assortment of local produce, healthy packaged foods and local gifts and artists by localilians. You will not find anything here that is not local so don’t even ask lol. And if you are not local enter at your own risk. No but all jokes aside this is a very cool little store packed full of treasures. Team is super loving nice and filled with an abundance of aloha spirit. I had some of the most amazing local kava cacao in the island there. Was pretty splendid!

Great local produce and other items. I recommend the berries, bok choy, lettuce, dressings and coconut chocolate. We will be back to try out other awesome products soon. Clerk was very kind, patient and knowledgeable.

I found this store while staying in Hilo for a few days. I bought one shampoo bar, one conditioner bar, one of their foaming face washes, a bar soap and some fruits and ice cream. I loved the bar shampoo and conditioner so much I reached out to them to put in a small order to be shipped to me. I love when I find products that work and the quality of their stuff is wonderful.

The Locavore Store is worth a visit. High quality local produce, local bath and souvenir products, and kindly employees. We found that their papayas, eggplants, apple bananas, and rambutans were higher quality than what we got at other stores. We especially enjoyed their roasted macadamia nuts and well-priced grass-fed beef (we grilled ribeyes and NY strip steaks).

All local products at great prices, although I initially thought they were expensive but after roaming around and also checking out some shops in Kona definitely great prices. We got the toffee chocolates which were delish.

I was really surprised with this one and was very disappointed about my recent experience. Ive been a customer for almost year. The boutique style shop offers items at a higher price point but that is OK for me since it products are local and of quality. The store attendants were also very nice.Recently, I bought an ice cream that didnt quite agree to my taste; it was so tart that I couldnt really enjoy it. I called the shop thinking that it wont be a big deal since I am already paying premium for its products. I assumed part of their mission is to provide a full positive customer experience.Unfortunately, the owner in a passive aggressive tone told me that they wont do an exchange or a refund because its falls under customer preference and she was VERY SORRY. This was the first time I requested an exchange. Sadly the boutique facade doesnt live up to the hype. In my book any business willing to lose a customer over $8 is trash. Even Aldi takes exchanges without question. I was talking up this place to my friends and family, but not anymore. BYE LOVACORE!!

An awesome store and great idea: features produce and products from local growers, backyards and workshops. Glad to know my dollars go to local people and businesses. How local? 70 some odd pounds from a neighbors avocado tree graced the produce bins. Thanks giving indeed. Awesome avocados!

This little grocery store is awesome. The fruits and meats are so good. We went twice. If you see something that you like get it while you are there because it might not be there a day later. Great variety for a small store. Prices are comparable to the close by Safeway or even cheaper.

My favorite place in Hilo and one of the things I miss the most about the Big Island. Locavore is THE place to get truly local products and to be embraced with kindness and excellent service. The store is beautiful and the owners are true gems. Stop by and get some purple sweet potatoes for me okay?

Wow. I mean, wow. I just had the best shopping experience of my life...from thousands of miles away! The Locavore Store had the perfect selection of locally-produced items for making a Big Island gift basket we wont forget...they hand-wrote my personal message into the card and coordinated handing off for delivery. Prices were incredibly reasonable for such exceptional products, and customer service was absolutely the best. So very happy to have had this shopping experience!

A lot better than the Hilo Farmers market. This place sells local spices, teas, produce, dairy, and meat and there is no sketchiness about it. Also, its clean and not a single drop of rain fell on me.

If you are looking for unique, fresh, and delicious foods that are all from the Big I, this is the spot. I always come here for gifts, they have local grown spices and great tinctures, essential oils, and body are products as well as fresh, all local foods including hard to find varieties of fruit.

The no doubt best shop for local quality produce. The quality of ingredients in this place far exceeds the so-called Hilo market and Island Naturals: this IS the shop for THE best veggies and fruits and more in Hilo. I am just a tourist. If I was living here I would shop, shop , shop this place empty!!!! to stay healthy.:-)

This is by far the best place to get the best produce in Hilo -- the owners are committed to serving their community as well as supporting farmers on the East side of the island. Ask them how they came to start this store!! Come shop here for delicious aina-grown foods, perfect gifts & grab and go items, and know that your are directly contributing to our local farming community and promoting local agriculture at large!! So grateful they are here!!!!

This is my #1 grocery store Hilo side. Grown not flown! If you shop anywhere else you are supporting the corporate, globalist paradigm. I just cant shop anywhere else than here. I vote with my dollars.
