On a recent rainy day, my sister, mother and I ventured into downtown Anchorage to eat at a specific restaurant. After parking in the garage, we descended to the first floor, and saw the Midnight Sun Café. We decided not to go outside in the rain, and eat here instead. I am so glad that we did! I had the amazing Veggie Breakfast Sandwich on a croissant. If I could eat that every morning for the rest of my life, I would have a smile on my face all day long! My mother and sister also enjoyed their meals. The service was great, and I would gladly eat here again if I were ever in Anchorage.

Cozy and perfect. Great prices, and plenty of options. Everything tastes fresh and local, and it's a fun place to go in Anchorage. I got the Flying Pigs in the Garden on a croissant and I recommend.

Great food, mediocre cold brew depending on the barista. The prices are high I think and the service can be very slow paced. It's adorable keetcy cafe, It's like perfect for visitors and locals alike.

Stooped in for a quick lunch. Got the Italian vegetable goddess sandwich with chips. Very delicious little sandwich. Cute shop with lots of pastries and coffees. Staff was very friendly and welcoming.

If you're looking a place to grab a sandwich and soup, you've found it! Things I like: - so many hot paninis to choose from - great soup - good coffee - nice local art on the walls - friendly service - breakfast served all day: pretty good prices for grab-n-go breakfast sandwiches too This place is great if you're a tourist walking around downtown or a local looking for an early breakfast or a lunch on your lunch break.

I've been by this spot a hundred times and never really stopped in, I've been missing out! Such a quaint little shop with a nice staff and delicious food. I had the turkey bacon ranch panini and she had half a BLT and the Midnight Sun Salad. My turkey bacon ranch was DELICIOUS! Toasted multigrain bread with the perfect mix of turkey and toppings. Her BLT was equally delicious and a perfect addition to her salad which was fresh and well put together. This shop is a gem right in the center of town.

After getting into Anchorage late at night and waking up early with the time change and sunshine practically all day/night...we were hungry for breakfast. Nothing was open near our lodging so we walked into city center and saw this cafe. We ordered at counter and our eggs came in a big croissant; very good! Coffee was good too! Our server was interesting but friendly. I had to clean the table we sat at and we were the 1st customers so I dropped a star but since in Anchorage I've had to do this at several places?!? Not sure why other than Anchorage is casual...

One of my favorite bakeries I look forward to going to when I visit Anchorage. The variety of…read morepastries 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.

- breakfast focaccia with sausage: a bit on the bland side, it's missing something. Maybe a pesto…read moreor 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.

Our first visit so the staff member said they choose what you eat and if you don't like it after 2…read morebites, you can choose something else. What a concept "Try before you like it ". This establishment has been featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins & Dives (see photo) and is very inclusive which was super cool. You can write on the wall about your visit which I found to be fun and inviting. I had the House Omelette which was surprisingly flavorful and excellent. It was exactly what I was looking forward to for breakfast. I tried some of the chicken from Crazy Uncle and was amazing! I was so surprised and delighted as was the rest of my party. Now, I have to pay and that is where I will share my appreciation :0)

I've been to Waffles and Whatnot three times in just the past couple of weeks, and every visit has…read morebeen incredible! Leer (sorry if I'm spelling that wrong!) has been absolutely amazing each time--so kind and welcoming--and the same goes for the other cashiers and cooks. The whole team creates such a positive vibe from the moment you walk in. My go-to meal? The chicken, mac & cheese, and waffle loaded with cookie butter, strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. On my very first visit, they asked what flavors I liked, and I told them "sweet and savory"--and they nailed it. Ever since then, it's been my regular. I always think about trying something new, but I can't help coming back for that combo--it's just that good. Today, Leer mentioned they were exploring opening new locations, and I told her Fort Worth would absolutely love a place like this. With the owner being a veteran and Fort Worth having such a strong military community, I know people there would rally behind it. We love supporting our own. Also, if you really listen, the music playing in the background is all original--and every track tells a story about the restaurant's culture, energy, and mission. That level of intention just makes the experience even more special. All in all: great people, great food, great energy. Hopefully we'll meet again in Fort Worth! Editing to add a BIG shoutout to the man running the window that food gets picked up from. I saw him let a customer (who looked like he was wearing a kufi) know that the Mac n cheese was cooked in bacon grease. The customer was unaware of this and was grateful and changed his order. That kind of cultural awareness and honesty shows that place isn't just about great food--it's about heart.
