This restaurant features a truly unique menu with surprisingly sophisticated dishes! I tried the roast beef sandwich, which was exceptional, particularly the bread it came on. Everything our group ordered was delicious! The staff was also very friendly and accommodating. I can't wait to return the next time I'm in the area!
What a charming little cafe! We tried the grilled cheese sandwich and the Beyond hot dog, and both were absolutely delicious! A definite highlight was the adorable puppies outside.
I'm in Alaska visiting family and stumbled upon this restaurant by accident, and it was incredible! Honestly, these were the best wings I've ever had. As a foodie, I’m used to amazing options in the Dallas area where I live, but these wings surpassed anything I've tried before.
A city-style menu in the heart of the country! I never imagined I would find a charcuterie plate, a muffuletta, and pulled pork in rural Alaska, especially all in one place! As a foodie from New Orleans, I was truly impressed by the exceptional quality of the food. The deviled eggs served on pickled cabbage were out of this world, and there's even a special menu for dogs! They now offer an app that allows you to place orders ahead of time, and the double-sided kitchen lets you choose between dining in or taking your meal to go. If you're heading north on Hwy 3 from Anchorage, look for the sign on the left. You won’t be disappointed by this amazing new restaurant in Willow, AK!
This restaurant is an absolute hidden gem! I visited for some hot cider and butternut squash soup, both of which I highly recommend. They were so warm and comforting that I returned the next day for another cup to take home. During my second visit, I was thrilled to see fluffy Siberian huskies waiting patiently in their enclosure for some attention while I waited for my soup. This place is definitely worth stopping by! It offers a fun, quick experience with delicious food and possibly the best cider around. I'm sure it will become one of your favorite spots, and the best part is that it’s conveniently located right on the main road, so there’s no need for a detour.
