Great for a quick breakfast and much better price than the hotels. Had a breakfast croissant with eggs, bacon and cheese inside for $15. He does prefer cash. Lots of local atmosphere.

Giant breakfast croissant is a must order. Owner was the sole worker/cook/server and was amazing at balancing it all. Excellent homemade food with a local feel.

Owner-operator with great personality does it all. Order at counter and get a comedy show for free. Spacious and clean. Glad we found this Alaskan treasure.

Best to come with cash! Cute cafe, pretty clean and great food! I appreciate the owner making a modification for me, but this may be due to the time. Being a one-man show, obviously the owner may be a bit short, so if you're actively ordering, don't hem and haw, or he may come across a bit curt. He's just pressed to make all food and coffee drinks to order on top of waiting, bussing and taking said orders. I do hope he finds suitable help during the summers, but if it ain't broke don't fix it ??‍♀️ you just have to know what to expect.

Vegetarian options: Clearly labeled veggie editions of nearly every dish, primarily avocado and tomato in place of meat. Just be clear and know what you want.

We ordered the reindeer sausage scramble and the breakfast sandwich, a combination I would highly recommend. Brinb a friend and split those two plates and you'll have a large, diverse, delicious meal without the wait and pretentious vibe of other nearby breakfast joints. It's a simple dive diner with a "homecooked meal" style food that outshines its building.

Asked if the quiche was available after seeing the large sign on the entry wall. Was rudely informed "no" (I guess they don't have an eraser ?). Bacon was extremely salty and potatoes dripping in grease. No butter or jam for the toast. Service was non-existent. Apparently he was having a bad day. Found a 6" long hair in the blueberry muffin on a previous visit. BIG mistake to go back.

The food here is really good. The bldg is a bit rundown, but there were nice plants and large windows for daylight, and friendly customer service.
