The most basic of roadside stops along the Kenai highway - hot food, drinks, ice, firewood (not the best deal around), and a liquor store. I would have given them all the stars if they'd just had a lemon for the fish my husband was catching, but we can't have it all! Super nice people, friendly atmosphere and for a roadside stop - surprisingly clean. read more

Welp, before Covid I probably would have been a fan of Wildman's. I always stop here when I blow throughCooper Landing. And Cooper Landing is a town that has been through A LOT so I always try to make a point of supporting businesses here. WILDMAN'S provides kinda a hodge podge of the basic essentials. But um... they are making ZERO attempts to mitigate the Corona Virus. No masks. No social distancing. Just ICK. If you're fearless, go for it. I'm tapping out on Wildman's. From now on I'll plan to bring extra snacks and pee in the bushes, its safer. read more

Our bus stopped here for ice cream so that we did not arrive to the lodge too early. The store is small and certainly not made to fit 30+ people descending upon it at one time. Instead of an ice cream, we opted for the shake. It was thick and creamy and was finished far too quickly. read more

This is the one stop shop everyone needs. The line for hot food stretched all the way through the store. The bus driver reported it's a great place for ice cream. Even though it's 58 degrees, people were getting the ice cream. They have reasonable prices on souvenirs and merchandise. A little bit of everything. Liquor store is attached so it truly is a one stop wonder. read more

Wildman's is a one stop shop! They have a liquor store, water and drinks, GREAT food, car supplies, hardware.. they have it all. We get their breakfast sandwiches and breakfast burritos. Home made and so so good. This morning we got the bacon, egg and cheese sand which. Bacon is thick cut with plenty of it in there, they use a nice thick cheddar cheese. We got the southwest breakfast burrito, holy cow it was big and so flavorful. Eggs, potatoes, Italian sausage, salsa, cheese. Damn good burrito, beats out every Mexican restaurant I've had in Anchorage. The ALSO have showers and laundromat as well as a coffee hut. Really awesome service and people here, will be back. We stop here a lot when we are hunting and fishing and it's always great. read more

How can this place NOT get a 5-star review! For one... they have the best.ice.cream.ever! And the portions are HUGE! Secondly, they offer showers, laundry, beer/alcohol, made-to-order snacks/sandwiches, movie rentals, wifi, and pretty much anything else you could need while driving through the Kenai Peninsula. It is impossible to drive through Cooper Landing and not stop at Wildmans! read more

We love this location the staff is incredible super nice and helpful. Best shakes I have had and they can customize it I got the caramel mocha added oreos and they use real warm caramel!! Real Expresso shoots! Also got one scoop of ice cream with waffle is so huge! read more

Great place to get an ice cream cone--soft serve or hard packed, a quick rest room stop and maybe a soda. If you need more they do offer laundry and showers and even a latte or americano. Liquor available too. Sandwiches are made to order. Great stop. read more

Great fresh sandwiches and burritos (and other feeds) in a town with very few options.

This is a good stop at almost the halfway point between Anchorage and Homer. Big parking lot, easy to get in and out in a 35 MPH zone with good views in either direction. An important feature if you're towing a boat or driving a land yacht. A little bit of everything in here, including clean showers, laundromat, etc. The bathrooms are clean, and there's no pressure to buy something in order to use them. On my way down to Homer, I inquired about the sandwiches. The clerk convinced me to try one on my way back, so I did. I liked the fact that the bread was locally made by the Moose is Loose Bakery in Soldotna. I ordered my roast beef with extra cow since I like my sandwich meaty. It was nice sized, and came with all the condiments I indicated on my order form. I sneaked a peak at the soup, beef and barley, and it looked yummy as well. For sweet toothers, a selection of eight different Dreyers ice cream flavors await. read more

Wildman's - Roast beef, double meat. - Convenience Stores Near Me - Cooper Landing, Alaska

One stop shop for all your convenience, coffee, latte, breakfast, snacks, conversation, WiFi needs. We stopped here during off season (thanks for being open!) on our way to homer for a pick me up cup of brew and some breakfast. Breakfast sandwiches were on par. Skip the breakfast burrito. A little too burrito and not enough breakfast inside. Most definitely with a stop if you are in the area. read more

Get your supplies before needing to stop at Wildmans. They are not practicing any social distancing measures. They aren't cleaning pens, they took my credit card for payment,don't have any plastic up between you and the check out person, and actually have to close two days a week because people don't want to work there. I wonder why?! read more

Okay, so here's the deal. Wildman's is a combination Convenience-Store-Laundromat-Ice-Cream-Shop-Espresso-Joint-Sandwich-Shop-Liquor-Store-Shower-Fishing-License-Renewal-Stop-and-Free-WIFI-Hub. I found myself at Wildman's every single day this summer. You can buy a mug for $9.00 and drink free coffee for the rest of your LIFE. It has every single thing you need between Anchorage and Soldotna. read more

Great breakfast burritos & specialty coffee drinks beat Starbucks hands down! No better place to catch up on laundry AND have a great, affordable breakfast. People were great too!! Gotta stop here!! read more

I as a frequent customer to this establishment have never been so poorly treated as the way Tracy has treated me. He continually acts as if it's a burden to use the register. Don't go in within an hour of closing without getting a negative attitude from Tracy about making a purchase. read more

Ice cream TO DIE FOR!! Be careful though, a "single" scoop is equivalent to 3 scoops and a double is like 6 scoops! No joke!! Don't get the waffle cone, not good at all. But the ice cream is amazing! I think it's umpqua? Yummmmmm read more

I have been driving by this place for years and stopping elsewhere. Big mistake. They serve Black Cup coffee, deli foods and huge scoops of ice cream. The prices are the best in town. They also have showers, laundry bathrooms and a liquor store. My biggest regret os that it took me. All these years of stopping at another place in Cooper landing that had horrible prices and rude staff. If you stop in Cooper Landing this is the place to go. read more

Wildman's is a must stop in Cooper Landing. They have the best ice-cream, and the waffle cones are delicious, they even have a little bit of fudge at the bottom of them to keep it from leaking. One scoop is 3 and two scoops is 6. It is true they are not practicing any sort of social distancing or sanitization measures here. None of the staff are wearing masks, most of the patrons are not wearing masks either, there are no protective measures being taken. So if you do stop be aware of that and take your own measures. Wear your mask, bring your own sanitizer, sanitize everything that was used and touched, social distance yourself as much as possible, etc. I still think its worth it, I just make sure I'm careful. read more

First off, let me say that I didn't want to write this, I was hoping that I could've written a positive review about my experience working for Wildman's. But alas, I can not. I feel it is important to let others know how poorly they treat their employees. I started working for Wildman's in March, I am originally from Virginia, and came across the country to work for them. I was excited at first. I did let them know before coming up that I had to leave mid-June to go back to my other job. They said they were fine with it. However, during a staff meeting, I had to remind them of my departure. They decided they weren't too pleased with that. About three days later, they decided to lay me off. Their excuse: "Lack of Motivation." which is full Malarkey. If you knew any of my coworkers of past jobs, that is a false statement. I wouldn't of come all the way from Virginia to work for these people. Yes, I made a few mistakes, My background is working in Museums, so naturally I would make a mistake here and there. No more than others, no one is perfect. They said that I had two weeks to make enough money to get a plane ticket home. I did manage to find a friend to stay with so I can stay the length of my time in Alaska. The manager asked me when I was leaving, I told her my answer. I figured I'd give my friend enough time to notify her lnadlord, and get things situated. A day or two later, they decided to lay me off 6 days earlier then promised. Which, I believe they were trying to make me homeless, which is pretty heartless. Before I left, I had to work 9 days in a row, 8 hours a day with only a 15 minute break. Even then, there were times my break was cut short. In Virginia, it is mandatory that all state facilities must give their employees a 45 minute break (Unpaid) if you are working 6 hour shift, an optional 30 minute break (unpaid) or a paid 15 minute break. I'm not exactly sure what the laws require for private businesses', I noticed during the end of that stretch that my feet were literally turning blue because of the constant running around, and standing with so little break. The owners expect us to make sure everything is perfect and expect us to work in the place of three people. I'd also like to add that I do have a heart defect, called "Tetralogy of Fellot" and had three open heart surgeries. I have given the owner my medical records and explained what comes with this defect. All she did was print an extra copy, but didn't even take a look at my medical records. The owners and upper management do not treat their employees with respect. There is a high turn over at Wildman's. I've had to say good bye to two employees because they feared for their health during the COVID-19 situation. They took no precautions when it came to the health and safety of their employees. They didn't even shut down the dining room when it was required by law to all restaurants to shut down their dining rooms because of the pandemic. I've been in the customer service field for about 10 years, I know the difference between management and leadership, I can honestly say that the owners show no leadership what so ever. A leader is someone who encourages their staff and fellow employees, when someone makes a mistake, a leader is someone who teaches them the right way to do it, they don't belittle and embarrass their staff for making a mistake. A leader is someone who works among their staff to make sure the day is successful, instead, they sit in the office the majority on their behinds and very rarely helped their staff members on a busy day. I just thought I'd let people know how they treat their employees. With disrespect, and they use people like people use toilet paper. Once there is no use, they toss them out. read more

We stayed outside of Cooper Landing on our Kenai hiking adventure. We were in an RV and this place was a perfect stop both in the morning and the evening. They had typical convenience store staples, showers, laundry, bathrooms, ice cream, wifi, and a little deli. This place was an awesome discovery on our Alaskan trip. read more

I stopped by here on my drive from Anchorage to Homer. I should of known better but I was starving so I figured I'd try there Philly Cheese Steak. The service was terrible! The cook was rude and condescending, but that wasn't even near the worst part! The Philly I received was nothing short of the foulest thing I think I've ever eaten! It was a hoagie with something resembling meat covered in fake nacho cheese that was luke warm! I had 2 bites choked back puking till I could make it to the bathroom where I purged what little I had in my stomach! If you're thinking about eating here SAVE YOU'RE $! You would be better off eating outta you're dogs bowl or finding a road kill animal on the side of the road!! read more

This place had a great Alaskan feel. Stopped in several times, each time there were tons of people in all stores, some socializing outside too. This place has everything you need essentially. Beer, wine, and liquor on one side. Deli counter and ice cream bar. Convenience store. Laundromat. Friendly staff. Prices were reasonable for area. read more

All purpose location as noted in other reviews. Staff is exceptionally friendly. Best deal is the ice cream cone....huge serving for a single scoop and a great price. If you stop only for the ice cream you made a wise choice. read more

This place is great. Food, espresso, ice cream, showers and laundromat all in one place. Prices are super reasonable, which is rare in Alaska. Plus, it's centrally located and everyone's friendly. Will definitely go back. read more

I went to Wildman's to shower because our water was busted. It was a nice, hot clean shower. I ended up getting some ice cream while waiting for some laundry. They give you quite large scoops. The staff is very friendly. I ended up going here frequently while I was in town. I got everything there: advil, tea, sandwich, ice cream, laundry, shower, beer, etc. I think that they have everything you could need/want at Wildman's. The place seems a little slapped together but it is a good all in one stop and one of the better ones I've been to. Its location is also very convenient. I'm not from Alaska so I think that everything in Alaska is expensive but Wildman's seemed to have fair prices for the area. read more

Some really nice people work here. Open very early for fisherman. They just need to do something about that bathroom smell.
