They serve Kaladi's coffee and the Kaladi's coffee shops in Anchorage could learn a thing or two about making coffee from Meghan's. It's a perfect place to stop and enjoy the beauty of Cooper Landing, which has become one of my all time top favorite places when it comes to scenery. I remember on a trip back to Anchorage last summer I stopped by and they had just closed and the girl (sorry i didn't get her name) came to the door and told me they were closed but she would make me something if I wanted it. I declined because she was close to being done cleaning and she offered me the remaining drip coffee she had and I said okay. You don't get service like that anywhere. Thanks for that because I was soooo tired on that drive. I'll catch ya on my next trip.. They also have ice cream and snacks. I tried to get the address as close as I could so if you stop by and get the correct address please update it for us!!

From now on I'll plan to bring extra snacks and pee in the bushes, its safer.

Additionally there were actually several restaurants and convenience stores in the area which was a change from the remote RV parks we had stayed at previously. The staff inside the store were EXTREMELY friendly. I have seen some negative posts about religion which I do not understand. Not once did I encounter anyone trying to push religion down my throat, nor did I notice an inappropriate amount of bibles laying around. Also, who cares? You don't have to read the bible in the bathroom just because it's there. I would highly recommend staying at Grizzly Ridge! Also there is a beautiful brand new metal deck area with steps leading down to it right on the river. I'm attaching pictures. Must see! Plus: water, sewage, and electric hook ups!

She clearly didn't speak English. Looked at sandwiches in the cooler and as best as I could determine, the egg salad was made 5 days prior! I know this is Alaska but that's no excuse for old dated stores and sour attitudes. And this is another store that has religious quotes posted. Stop it already!!!!

Tldr During my travels in Alaska, i had the chance to stay in cooper's landing. Its a pristine area with stunning lake, views and even moose sightings. Only on my last day did i take a chance to visit Sunrise Inn. Though we originally planned to do have the breakfast there, we had reached late and it was time for lunch.. Im reminded of one of the staff who was a native of Kodiak Island and insisted that if at all, we planned to travel to kodiak, we should consult her :) . Hopefully that comes true one day Till then.. cheers!

We stopped in today on the way back from Homer. We knew they had been up for sale for some time,…read moreand our server confirmed it was now under new management. The menu was different but I was happy to see they still had the chicken wrap on there. It went downhill from then. I asked for a Gold Medal Chicken Wrap, with crispy chicken (ranch was not an option, previously it was my go-to choice) you could have hot wings sauces, or honey BBQ - and this is my bad, I initially thought that it said honey mustard, so I said honey mustard. It came with a choice of tater tots onion rings or fries. I chose tater tots, but changed my mind to fries. Husband just ordered a piece of carrot cake. I was very disappointed with this wrap, not just in comparison to the wrap that used to be available, but just as a wrap being offered by a restaurant in general. The honey bbq sauce (I had asked for some on the side, to dip it into) was red. And I couldn't taste any BBQ smokiness. It was very tomatoey. I queried about my honey-mustard error, and she showed me the menu, and that mistake was definitely on me. I asked if she had some ranch I could use as a dip, and was brought some. So anyway, the wrap - loosely wrapped and quite floppy, and warm, as though it had been grilled or broiled, which rendered the lettuce leaf and tomato slice warm, limp and floppy. The previous wrap from Sunrise, and most other wraps in restaurants where I've had them, will serve an unwarmed tortilla with raw crunchy vegetables. The Sunrise previously did so - lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, shredded cheese, julienned carrots and crispy chicken in a cool creamy ranch dressing, it was a tightly wrapped, crunchy delight, and out of this world. I recommended it to anyone passing that way. The best thing I have to say about this one, is that there was plenty of chicken and it was tender. There was too much of the honey bbq sauce in it though, and the chicken wasn't crispy anymore, the breading had gone very soggy. It was a disappointment. As were the tater tots, when I had requested fries. The server was pleasant enough, and I tipped her well, but I wasn't happy with the food at all. Won't be returning anytime soon

The single story buildings are very…read morewell spaced with good sized buffers of trees separating them, giving a sense of isolation that you don't actually have. Well done. Further there are a couple of easy, scenic walks on the property. A 1 mile fairly flat nature trail through a wooded area and a 1-2 mile walk to and along the river, also fairly flat (albeit there is a hill with a phone at the bottom, Princess will send a shuttle to retrieve you). We used it as a base for walking the Russian River and Russian Lakes trail (to the first lake), both highly recommended. With more time we would have headed to Juneau Falls...there are a ton of hikes in the area, all which sound tremendous. Could also be used as a base for Seward and exploring the Exit Glacier/Harding Icefield hikes. Have fun! Oh. The rooms. Kinda rustic but clean and spacious, a wood burning stove and TV (used neither), balcony, and very importantly a laundry. Which we made good use of. Check in. We arrived at ~1:30 and lying in wait was a sugary sweet desk clerk who *very* sweetly and in no uncertain terms told us that check in was 3PM. The only thing missing was a "Bless your Heart". No wi-fi in the rooms, it is available in the lodge where there is a balcony tailor made for sipping wine and enjoying the river views.

The attic has a great view and just a couple of tables. Plus, an amazing large chess. The kids and we loved the place.

That eliminates drive thru espresso. And there they are! Kaladi Brothers! In a store front Im SURE was a pizza place no less than a month ago. I ran in, ordered the day's special with soy and asked for a bag of their finest, ground. Holy Moses, my cup was ready before they had finished grinding my beans! It was so fast that I actually wandered around looking at paintings (chinese laquer pieces) because I didnt think it was possible for that cup sitting at the counter to be mine! I felt a little bit like an idiot because the barista LET me wander around instead of calling out when my order was ready, but I am still impressed. You have won me back, Kaladi Brothers. Coffee addicts and coffee snobs alike are sure to enjoy your newest location. Well done.
