Reviews for The Rookery Cafe in Juneau, AK
Excellent spot for breakfast or lunch or a to-go coffee/pastry. It is a popular spot, and gets busy quickly in the morning, so... going early if you want to sit and eat is recommended. Otherwise, the line moves fairly quickly, and the wait for to-go itemsisn't too bad. Waiting for food only took about 10 minutes for sit-down. For our breakfast, I had the Eggs Benedang, and it wasterrific. The chicken was crispy and flavorful on the outside, plus juicy and tender inside. It paired very well with theperfectly poached eggs and ham, plus hollandaise with the right amount of spice. My other party member had the Breakfast Sandowith spinach, tomato and bacon, and thought it was the perfect size and tasted great. We also split an excellent sticky bun andeach had a coffee. Staff was all efficient and friendly, and very on top of the constant flow of customers. Read more
The Rookery Cafe is a quaint cafe with delightful food options. My husband and I shared a cinnamon roll. It was flakey and full... of cinnamon and sweetness. I had the Bravas potato; it was savory but not overpowering, and the pouched eggs were donewonderfully. My husband had the BBQ pork potato bowl; the pork was juicy and the sauce was savory with a hint of sweet. At thiscafe you order and then sit at a table. I suggest asking for silverware as you are sitting, because we needed it to share thecinnamon roll and had to go ask. The reason for the 4 stars and not 5-The person rolling the silverware seemed very annoyed,and that I was bothering her. She needs to learn how to be a customer service person. She also put my husbands plate of anEnglish muffin on the table and the muffin fell off the plate onto the table. She didn?t say a word, and I had to put the muffinback on the plate myself. Besides the girl with long dark hair who served our food and was rolling the silverware, the rest ofthe staff was very helpful and pleasant and answered my questions to help me figure out what I wanted to order. I wouldrecommend this cafe, but realize it is a counter service kind of restaurant not a table service. Hats off to the cook- food wasdelicious! Read more
This was a cool a little place to eat. We went for breakfast. When you walk in, you'll go up to the counter to order. They had... some good choices like your typical two egg breakfast. They also had different types of Sando's and variety of fresh danishes.The coffee was pretty good too. Two thumbs up! Read more
Excellent turkey sandwich with balsamic onions and excellent seemingly homemade tater tots. Good stop for $12. I would revisit.
Best coffee shop in Juneau! I had a latte and a chocolate cinnamon croissant. Both were the best I?ve had here. The atmosphere... is very relaxing and cozy. They also offer a full menu with breakfast and lunch and to go options. The staff is very friendly.Located downtown near lots of cool, local shops. Read more

I really love the atmosphere here, I could spend all day sitting at the window and just watching the passerby. The Korean... Chicken Sandwich was also really good, with just the right amount of spice and crunch. Read more
The Rookery is a must try here in Juneau. A down to earth atmosphere mixed with great coffee and tea with the bonus of a... fantastic focused menu. Everything that comes out of their kitchen is wonderful and fresh. There is obviously a lot of pridethat goes into their offerings. In addition to their menu offerings they have a small selection of pastries that should beexperienced. Their croissants, whether sweet or savory, are delicious. The wife and I highly recommend this establishment andmake it a regular little date for ourselves. Read more
