Feels like a locals only hideout. Great food friendly service and I was made to feel welcome. The sourdough pancakes definitely have a different taste, so please don't order them and then say they taste funny. They were great and they keep real maple syrup on the table.

Went three days for breakfast. All the food we had was steaming hot and good. Good espresso options. The atmosphere is loud, good music playing, staff friendly. Would likely expect $20/pp as far as cost. Tons of skiers stopping in for a bite as it is next to a resort and I visited during the snowy season. Parking seemed a little limited due to snow piled up everywhere, not sure how that would be in there he summer. I would definitely recommend, and would stop again if I’m ever in the area in the future.

Breakfast ends at noon, not 1pm as the official description from the restaurant states here! We got there and got in line a few minutes before noon but they unfortunately told us no when we got to the counter. They did give the guy in front of me pancakes after noon but not me.

We were heading back from Alyeska and wanted a quick snack, so we stopped here. So glad we did! Great croissant sandwiches, cookies, and apple fritter! Also, I highly recommend the Alpine Latte! Unfortunately, there's no place to sit and eat, but well worth stopping for take out.

Always closed and never consist times. The only good thing is the bottomless soup. If the soup wasn’t offered I’d never go here and recommend against it.

The best breakfast spot in the area, absolutely loved the pancakes, but don’t order their espresso drinks (their drip coffee is decent though).

I loved this place for it's amazing sourdough pancakes, and I would get them all the time! But now, they've changed their recipe!! Their pancakes are now normal pancakes! I just CAN'T with that! But otherwise, I would reccomend the bake shop! It's actually a really nice place. I do note that the sourdough bread loaves that you can buy are literally splendiferous. Buy one.

You ever been to a place that feels like people who are growing up in the town work there? It's hard to describe the energy but it's pleasantly relaxing, even when crowded. I'd suggest getting there early-is as we entered into a line and walked past a line on the way out. It's THAT popular.There's a reason for that: the food is consistent. Everyone's toast came out perfectly, the bacon was cooked fresh, the eggs were fluffy, and the drinks were good.Recommendation: Cinnamon bun. Oh. My. Gosh. Not too sweet, crunchy on the top and so delicately light and soft inside. That was the highlight of breakfast, aside from peripherally observing the kitchen staff jamming out to 90s/2000s punk/skater rock and curse at a few fringe toasts.Sure, if you're a person of color you may get some side glances but it won't be from staff. The food is worth it.
