Reviews for Snow City Cafe in Anchorage, AK
Stopped by lunch after spending time on the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail. I didn't have a reservation and there were people... waiting, but was seated within 15 minutes. The wait wasn't bad as they have the coffee bar up front, so was able to grab asmoothie and tea while waiting. Upon getting seated, Jamin was our server and he did a great job. He was very friendly,helpful, engaging, and made some good recommendations. Everything looked good on the menu, but finally decided on the Farmer'sOmelet, Soup & Salad combo, Tundra Scramble, and Salmon BLT. The Soup and Salad combo was the Berry Salmon Salad and Cream ofTomato with Pesto Soup. Everything was very good, but my favorite was the Soup & Salad combo as it allowed me to try twodifferent dishes in smaller portions. All the food was very good, made with fresh ingredients, and plated well. The soup wasmy favorite dish as it was very creamy and flavorful. Overall, very good service and food. It was crowded, but the tables weremoving quickly. Use the wait time to enjoy a coffee, tea, or smoothie. Read more
The pecan rolls are phenomenal here. I also had the best eggs Benedict on top of salmon cakes. Expect to wait awhile for a table... so don't come too hungry. Make sure to order hash browns as they were perfectly salted and crispy. Read more
Great breakfast restaurant with delicious food and friendly staff. Everyone in my group loved their food including Sticky Buns,... Eggs Benedict, French Toast, and Hash Browns. This is a popular spot, and people were waiting 90+ minutes to be seated. Wearrived at 9:00am and weren't seated until 10:00am. Would recommend, but plan to wait on the weekends. Read more
The wait was TOO long so we put our name down and they said 2 hrs. We went to do some sightseeing and souvenir shopping. Came... back and ordered a few drinks to keep us occupied. The food was OK? the kids ordered chicken and waffle and it was not good. Ihad the salmon berry salad (salmon portion was small and a bit dry), but the creamy tomato soup was very good. The chicken andwaffle had a THICK layer of batter and drenched with sauce and the waffles were soggy. The manager comped us and we orderedcinnamon rolls to go. The waitress was very nice and attentive. We would not go back. Read more
We came here for brunch before departing for the airport. It is a busy place, but the wait was less than 15 minutes. The four of... us split a large cinnamon roll with icing. Extraordinary! Warm and melting icing. Our brunch choices were, The Cluck Norris(chicken apple sausage, fresh spinach, caramelized onion, tomato, white cheddar), Snow City Oatmeal, and Eggs and Bacon. Not abad thing to say for any of them! Great tasting and nice portions. Great server with an even better attitude! Try this spot forthe atmosphere, flavors, and friendliness. Read more
I was a solo traveler in Alaska for a few weeks? i only spent a night in Anchorage and grabbed a meal here- based on a... recommendation from a local. It was a great choice as I would absolutely love to have another of these burgers now that I?mthousands of miles away. I got their spicy jalapeño/avocado burger and it was super flavorful. I couldn?t choose between twodifferent items on the menu and the waitress strongly suggested this burger and I am thankful? it came with hash browns and theywere also amazing! Fun, happy, colorful place in a convenient location. If i lived here, this would likely be a regular forme. Read more
A nice local spot that travelers like as well. Nice atmosphere with a little bit of a wait. Big portions fir the price. ... Pancakes are huge. Lots of French Toast with the Polar Express. The jam on the table hit the spot, very nice surprise. Theirbrew tea wasn't great was the only complaint. Read more
Although this restaurant is styled a a cafe, I think the better description is an upgraded diner. Although we got to Snow City... before 9AM, the place was packed. I think we got the last table. Service was fast and friendly. Coffee and tea were good and thechoices were numerous and it neighbors food all looked tasty. We really enjoyed the eggs Benedict and the bagel with creamcheese and smoked salmon. Eclectic decor and they have plastic dividers between booths which is a very nice feature. Great placefor breakfast/ brunch, but expect a wait if you're later in the morning. Read more
