“First timer! Amazing food and amazing staff!”

“We loved this place so much, we went back twice in one week! Great atmosphere, beautiful view out the window, incredible service from the kind family that owns it, and exceptional food! We have enjoyed every meal we've tried immensely! You can show up in your Sunday best or post-project grungies and you'll be treated the same either way. We also enjoyed the gorgeous art displayed on the walls by a local artist. Thank you John and family for a wonderful experience! This place is awesome! Jeremy and Angie”

“Super friendly environment, wonderful service. The drinks and food have never disappointed.”

“Sweet Gypsy is a welcome alternative dining space in the Valley. I'm a big fan of all my menu choices so far, except for the disappointing meat calzone. The salads are superb! I usually take home dessert for later, and they don't disappoint. I especially loved their version of carrot cake, but I try something different each time, and they are all great. I live a long way from Palmer, and SG will continue to draw me back. Give it a try.”

“If you could hear me shouting from the mountains, I'd tell you go to The Fern AK! My favorite place, always!”

“Finally got a chance to stop by. Food was amazing. Will definitely be back.”

“Birdhouse Sandwich Co. has had my heart for years now — and for good reason. Every bite from this place reminds me why I keep coming back. The food is consistently amazing, made with care, creativity, and flavor that truly hits the spot. Whether it’s a classic sub or a specials on the menu, it’s always fresh, and filling, A big shoutout to Matt, the mastermind behind the magic. He’s the guy who brings the flavor — not just in the food, but in the experience. His dedication to quality and community shows in everything Birdhouse serves, all at a price that makes it easy to keep supporting. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on one of Palmer’s go to spots. thank you for feeding us well and making every visit feel like a treat! My favorite food items: Tacos, French dip, pastrami, chi-town Italian beef, loaded mash, Mary-J, Cordon Bleu.”

They go above and beyond for their customers in a way that makes you feel right at home, even if you’re just visiting for a few days. Thank you for taking care of us so well for so long! My family would never get anything done in the morning without you.

10/10, best coffee you can get your hands on.”

“We were excited to stop by the bakery after first trying some chocolate chip cookies at a local farmstand. We loved them! The bakery was even better, so many options and the owner was so helpful, friendly, and kind. Can’t wait to try the breads!”

“Lots of arts n crafts to do from painting, mosaics, pottery etc. Lots of knick knacks to do mosaics with. Little pricey in my opinion but fun for grandkids. Little snack bar with hot n cold drinks .”

“If you love a strong Caramel chocolate Frappuccino, THIS is where you need to get it from! It’s not like the expensive place makes(SB.) IT is sooo much better!. SB puts one shot of espresso in a Venti. BrewHaHa puts four! Taste so much better and, it’s cheaper than when I go to SB and ask for three shoots extra of espresso to be added. It’s in Palmer. On the main highway, exit the hospital or Trunk Road exit. Basically stay straight past the hospital as you go through the roundabouts. At the end of Trunk road is a Tesoro. Brew HaHa is in that parking lot. It is so worth it!!!”

“My husband forgot half of our order when he picked it up. We went back and the entire staff was do incredibly friendly and helpful. My initial shock at their very youthful appearance quickly turned to admiration for their ability to work together as a team. The kids are alright!”

“Very professional! Quick clean work great prices. $$”

“Sunrise is our FAVORITE family go to! Such an awesome family, great service, and the absolute best breakfast. Supporting a family owned and run business is important in our small town, and it’s super easy when the family is kind, funny, and easy going like theirs!”

“Between running kids around, juggling businesses, and trying to keep life moving, having a GREAT local pizza place nearby is basically a survival tool at this point. 😂🍕 This spot has become one of our family favorites! The pizza is always delicious, fresh, and consistently good — and the people there are just as wonderful as the food. You can feel the community vibe the second you walk in. As a local business owner myself, I absolutely love supporting other small businesses that pour so much heart into what they do. So thankful to have such a great neighborhood pizza place right here in our community! 💛”

“HANDS DOWN Our absolute FAVORITE coffee shop EVER. We currently live in rainier but drive all the way to Fresh start every morning for coffee and its well worth the drive. The coffee isn’t the only thing we look forward to about this coffee shop but the owner and employees are TOP NOTCH! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND 👌🏼❤️ Will forever have a special place in my heart!!!!!”

“Pretty darn good. The valley lack’s a bagel and coffee place as places do in the lower 48. I can confidently say Joe Bagel is that empty hole in the community. I loved the bagel I got the couple of times I went. And the coffee? Wonderful.”

“Cozy Cup is the best and Tianna is amazing! She has beyond exceptional customer service, such good energy, a positive vibe and makes the best drinks. Even when you’re having a tough morning her cheery nature turns it around. If you don’t live in that area, make your way over and try them out. They’ll become your new fave. I highly recommend.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“What a fantastic change from the mid 2000’s when this place was run by a couple running it into the ground. If you remember the place from when they were there, stop in and see the changes. I turned this place off my radar in 2007 when I gave the two owner couple money to pay an unhappy vendor. I assume they are gone because the place is a great hangout spot.”

“Awesome food! Awesome welcome!”

“Love this bar! Great regulars, amazing owners. Fun bubbly bartenders, CHEAP (AND I MEAN CHEAP!!) drinks! So many games and never ever a dull moment at The MooseHead saloon!”

The server was also very kind so it all made up for a longer meal. Best part is - it was kid friendly! 100% coming back again!”

“I’m on the fence with the Yes or No It’s 50/50 guess it depends on the day like most places… this one is definitely a hit or miss 🫤 Went years ago & ordered a Chinese menu item Really wasn’t impressed was Dry & not much to get excited about so I didn’t go back for more… Until June of this year bought a couple burgers & they were the Bomb… All young High School aged guys working & they did an awesome job holding it all together from the counter to the lobby I WAS IMPRESSED @ how smoothly they worked together 🙂 Great job fellas 🙂 & then last night happened around 7:30pm We decided to go back because our Previous experience was top notch but last night was the complete opposite 🫤 the young guys working did great the older lady working the counter was Stressed… We ordered & waited… Our food came out only to accidentally be served to a couple who came in well after us… they accepted our food & began to eat… the kiddo working realized the mistake after serving us a single meal which ended up being another customers 🫤 to my husband who didn’t realize it straight away that it wasn’t the one he ordered “ he was hungry after 10 hours of work “ as was I who had to sit there another 20 minutes roughly for mine 🫤 We asked for the other burger to be made to go Since we did pay for it… lady was a bit snarky because we asked for it to be made to our original order 🫤 I understand that mistakes happen but was far from impressed with the overall experience. When ya pay $$$ Roughly $33 plus a tip & the experience becomes a Cluster of WTF !?! They did offer a order of fried mushrooms THANX but really our order should’ve been comped or offered a Free meal next round… Something to make up for it All on their end… I remained polite & tried being patient 🙂 which is not easy when your Hungry & watching other people eat your food JS ! All in All it wasn’t a great date night Experience… they Should’ve done better about making it Right… kudos to they kiddo who atleast offered the mushrooms but come on REALLY 🫤🫤🫤”
