The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful. You can really tell that there's a lot of care and passion behind the food. It's a great place to stop by for a delicious treat, coffee, or a relaxing meal. I am slowly trying all the items Benji's has to offer and I can honestly say I have not had anything that I haven't enjoyed. My favorite thus far has been the pistachio crumbly danish. I highly recommend Benji's Bakery & Cafe to anyone and everyone, definitely worth a visit!

The ambiance of the Pantry Cafe is really cool, it has a semi-Polynesian, semi-Pacific Northwest vibe, which fits this hotel really well. They have a nice selection of items, and I definitely appreciate how they have a "paleo" breakfast plate with a lot of veggies and some eggs. I had that and also a side of reindeer sausage, all of which are dairy free. While the price was just a bit steep for the amount of food I got, I was otherwise very happy with the taste of the food. They only have plain coffee, no special coffee drinks, but I saw people bringing in coffee drinks from the attached coffee bar. Service was pretty fast, and they open at 5:30AM, which is great if you have to leave the hotel early.

Didn't matter. Carolyn had the ham and cheese croissant. The same, good ingredients well prepared. Small cafe with counter ordering and delivery to table.

The gentleman who to took the order also did the coffees, cooking and table service, as a result he lost our order and had to scramble to get it out to us. In spite of that...we will return.

You can see them bake the pastries and bread. Our first time in line, I decided to get their sausage poached egg breakfast sandwich and an Alaskan berry scone. My friend got their breakfast focaccia came with egg, cheese sausage on a focaccia. My egg sandwich was not good. I was surprised they didn't heat the sandwich. Not even sure if I had to ask? The egg wasn't that poached, the inside was just gooey and not runny, which was fine by me. Since it was not heated, the sausage patty was so cold, egg was cold, the bread bun they used was so big, too much bread, stale/hard and not proportional. It was pretty bad, not a good breakfast sandwich. Skip it. They made that up in the breakfast focaccia. The focaccia was warm, soft, and the egg and sausage was warm and just right. That's what you should get!!! We came back in line and got additional items bc they put our more. I got their fruit danish, my friend got their chocolate cupcake and an ham cheddar scone. Their danish was delicious. And their scones were very flakey and soft. Everything was great except that breakfast sandwich. Skip that and get the breakfast focaccia.
