*Review is for food only since we got takeout and I didn't personally visit* Probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Bread was fresh and perfect, and the combo of ham, brie, apricot and apple was Devine - I'll be trying to recreate this at home!
Overall an amazing location with great bread! I would recommend going for bread items like the croissants and scones The sweets, namely the cake based items are drier The egg sandwich was good but not worth the hype in terms of flavor Absolutely loved the salami and pepper croissant it was deliciously flaky and savory The Alskan Berry Scone was also delicious with a great mixture in textures and flavors. Some parts were nice and crispy while others were doughy. Great mix between sweet crust, tart berries, and salty bread. The scone was soft and had a strong biscuit taste
My husband and I shared: - Alaska Smoked Salmon & Cucumber Sandwich - Goat Cheese, Artichoke Heart, Potato, Tomato Focaccia - Strawberry Shortcake Cupcake - Raspberry Danish I really enjoyed everything. The Focaccia was my favorite and my only regret is not getting the second one they had with different toppings. Salmon can be hit or miss for me depending on the preparation, but when in Alaska, you have to have salmon. This one is a hit. For dessert, I loved the cupcake. It was angel food cake making it very light with strawberry filling. Absolutely delicious. If we hadn't visited on one of our last days, we likely would have been back here many times on our trip.
Everything was delicious. The bread that came with the salmon chowder had a nice crust, good tang taste and soft on the inside. The scone was not dry and the croissant was moist. The salmon sandwich and the salmon chowder had similar flavor profiles so I would pick one or the other next time. We came here at 9:20am and was able to find seating. It starts to pick up and get busy at 9:30am. It's bright and well lit and there are cute shops in the same area.
Prepare to stand in line, but everything is made fresh on site in the open kitchen/bakery and everything is delicious. I got some savory croissants and they were buttery and tasty. Good coffee too! Some tables available or you can browse the wine and plant stores next door. Cute space!
If you're indigenous or Alaska Native, do not give this bakery your business. I visited this bakery recently and had concerns about the service I received. I shared my feedback directly with the business, hoping for a constructive conversation. Instead of addressing the specific issues I raised, the response I received focused on defending their staff and stating that they are "never intentionally rude or discriminatory," which did not reflect the experience I had. What concerned me most was that after expressing my dissatisfaction, the bakery asked me to "take my business elsewhere." This is not a typical or professional way to handle customer feedback, especially in a food service setting where listening and improvement should be part of the process. My intention was simply to provide honest feedback so future customers might have a better experience. Unfortunately, the way the situation was handled made it clear that feedback is not welcomed here. There is no WiFi for working. The line is unusual, and new customer experience confusion. This business operates with under the blanket of tax exemption from the municipality of Anchorage. I hope the bakery reflects on how it communicates with customers moving forward. I will not give this establishment my business.
The line is out the door here for a reason. We had the veggie egg sandwich and it was delicious. I was worried about how a cold egg sandwich would be but it ended up giving room for more flavors. The roll managed to be both light and hearty, and the poached egg was a great texture combined with the avocado. We also got a chocolate croissant which was buttery, rich, and amazing. We just got take out but the place is light and clean and housed in a small food hall with some other fun options.
Can I go back to Anchorage just so I can visit here again?! The line was long, and totally worth the wait. Service was friendly and fast. Everything was fresh and so delicious. If they have the bourbon bread pudding muffins when you go, you MUST get one. We also had the breakfast focaccia and a scone...it was all amazing. I love that the kitchen is open and we could see them making it all. 10/10!
We smelled this bakery walking by one morning, and we immediately knew we had to visit the next day. We tried savory breakfast focaccia and sweet berry scones, both of which had great textures and flavors. There was a line at the counter, but it moved quickly. Definitely get there early if there is a specific item you want to try! The building itself was very cute and had other great shops to visit, like a coffee shop and plant store.
- breakfast focaccia with sausage: a bit on the bland side, it's missing something. Maybe a pesto or red pepper sauce. The sausage was good though, and a bit salty, which might have balanced the seasoning in this item but the chunks were too few and big to be balanced. - messy egg salad sandwich: a lot of dill, heavy on the pickled flavor, and good red onion crunch. This was just ok. It looked better than it tasted, unless you're a fan of dill. Mainly got this sandwich to try their bread but the bread was an afterthought. - maple rhubarb muffin: hard pass. Can't taste the rhubarb and barely any maple. The bottom also was more burnt than anything. It seems they may have over mixed their batter, muffin didn't have a tender crumb.
This place was worth the hype! I went on a Saturday morning and it was busy with a line to the door, but the service is quick so it went pretty fast. It was really nice to see everything is freshly baked every day, and the quality shows. I got the sausage focaccia and a chocolate cupcake, but after poking my friend's scone, got back in line for a ham and cheddar chive scone. The sausage focaccia was amazing, perfectly soft bread with the right amount of toppings.. 11/10! I normally don't get scones because they're usually hard or dry, but the scones at Fire Island are super moist and perfectly crunchy where they should be.. literally the best scone I've ever had! They have a ton of tables to relax and chat, and they're right next to the That Feeling Co so you can grab a drink to go with your food. They offer a variety of sandwiches and pastries, all decently priced, so if I'm ever back in Anchorage I'll definitely be back!
The best bakery in downtown Anchorage along side That Feeling Company, Johnny's Market, and La Bodega. This small K street Market was hopping on a Saturday morning with a line out the door. It was well worth the wait and they did a fantastic job keeping up with the locals and tourists swarming to enjoy the goods. I ordered a loaf of the vollkornbrot, onion poppyseed rolls, and pecan shortbread cookies. All divine!
One of my favorite bakeries I look forward to going to when I visit Anchorage. The variety of pastries breads, soups and sandwich they have always look mouthwatering. It's just a cute place to vibe at and be around the community.There is a coffee shop, plant shop, juice shop and small market in the same building which makes it worth the stop. The seasonal ginger bread chia tea from the coffee shop is like Christmas in your mouth. The turkey sandwich is like thanksgiving with cranberry sauce and pecans. The sweet potato burban cupcake was actually to die for. The cake was moist with a carm filling of pecans and bourbon topped with a light cream cheese frosting. I'm never disappointed with fire island. A jem in anchorage.
Pastries before another road trip. We came for breakfast. There was a pretty long line, about maybe 10 minutes. The place is big, connected to a coffee shop. 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. read more
Will helped us and was an absolute darling. My group very much enjoyed our food and the atmosphere. It was quite busy but worth the wait! If you are looking for something to do in Anchorage, I would definitely swing by! My brother got chocolate cake, partner got the Alaskan berry scones, and me the egg sandwich. read more

We go for the baguette, the sandwiches and sometimes the flaky pastries. Muffins and scones and some of the cookies at mid, at best. Soup is usually fantastic. For those complaining about lack of coffee options, there's a place to get your bougie coffee inside the plant store. Photo is of the "chocolate" croissant we got today. Chocolate taking a holiday I guess. read more
This place was wonderful! I definitely recommend coming here if you're in town, delicious breakfast sandwiches and great hospitality! My partner and I ordered the breakfast sandwich and it was phenomenal! Even though it was cold, it was still great, I think you can ask them to warm it up but we took it as it is. We came around 10am? It was my favorite item from this bakery. The sausage isn't your typical McDonalds or fast food premade patty (which I cannot stand), I'm pretty sure they make this in house. The sausage was peppery (black pepper) and savory, highly recommend this! The holiday turkey sandwich was okay, it wasn't terrible but it wasn't WOW! I felt like the flavors were all over the place. This was not a good balance between flavors and I just didn't think it worked well together. I think it was too much cranberry sauce that just overpowered everything. If you want to get this and try it, you better love cranberry. BUT it is aesthetically pleasing. The roast beef sandwich was much better in my opinion compared to the turkey. The pickled onions gave it a nice crisp crunch and acidity that I really enjoyed. Everything worked well together and the flavors didn't fight against one another. I'd definitely would get this again! ( the breakfast sandwich was so good we came back twice during our visit) read more

The only negative thing about this place is that you cannot decide one best item. Everything is freshly made from scratch tastes and smells delicious. We visited twice during our stay in Anchorage even though we usually like trying new places. read more

A must stop if you're visiting in Anchorage!! The shop is very quaint & offers a lot different variety of bakery, breakfast, & lunch options. Everything is made from scratch & you can tell. The shop is also very cool because there are other business connected into the building. Was so good we went back twice! read more
Great looking and great tasting croissants! Fantastic bread sold too. Wish I can try all of it. So far, we have tried the scones, muffins and croissants. Will be back while we are still here in Anchorage. Service is quick. Lots of crew to help customers. read more
Scones were delicious and coffees were really good. Love the rustic ambiance and the counter is in front of the bakery kitchen. You can see the goods coming out of the oven. Service is from a counter, fast and had enough people. We didn't get to try the sandwiches because it was a Monday and Tuesday. But we'll be back for sure. read more

Great place to grab a morning treat! Popped in here to grab a few pastries before road tripping from Anchorage. What a great decision! The birdseed bars were great for travel and the muffins were delicious! Everything was very reasonably priced and happy to support a local bake shop. If you're in the area and looking for some treats, try Fire Island Bakeshop. Enjoy! read more

This place was overall great! I was about to give 4 starts because of how incredibly busy this place was + the anxiety of not being able to find a table to sit! (seat yourself place but we did end up snagging a table last minute!) BUT that is not the businesses fault and actually is a testament to how good the place is! This is NOT a quick pit stop place though, you will wait in line for a good amount of time if you come but I would say it's worth it. The sandwiches we got were pretty good and the worker I interacted with was very nice and gave a great recommendation since what we originally wanted was sold out. I got the ham and swiss sandwich which was perfect and the peruvian chicken sandwich was full of flavor! Since it is a little marketplace, just note that you do buy the food and drinks in separate areas. I don't think that is a big deal just something to note since you'll have to wait in two seperate lines! The atmosphere is cute and cozy and has plenty of natural light which is nice! And for how busy it was, I don't' recall it being overly loud in there! If you are looking for a cute place to check out in the area, I would check this place out! Plus, look how pretty the coffee cups are!!! read more
Loved this place. This place surprised me from the quality and taste of the food to the ambience. Super quaint. I'm vegetarian so I got the vegan and gluten free corn chowder with bread. On the spicier side but tolerable with bread. Perfect for those who can handle a little spice. I also got the beet sandwich which was surprisingly amazing. I can eat that multiple times. The cafe is great. Chat tea latte was perfect. They charge an extra dollar, I believe, for milk substitution. Love that this place has a bakery, cafe, and smoothie joint. Definitely a place to visit when visiting Anchorage. read more

My friends and I came here on a weekday and the place was packed! We were hoping to have a meal here but the kitchen was closed which was disappointing. There wasn't enough seating to sit down and work so we ended up just getting coffee and leaving. read more

Started our day with an amazing experience at this local bake shop! Easily walkable from most downtown Anchorage. Everything is baked fresh daily, in-house. While waiting to order, you can watch all the bakers perfecting their craft creating tasty treats. The ambiance is lively, bright and airy. My wife had the Croissant with chocolate. It was very buttery, flaky and tasty. I had the mixed berry scone. It was packed with strawberries, blueberries and rhubarb. Definitely need to check it out if I'm downtown Anchorage. read more
