Our Story
Located downtown Anchorage, we're a favorite of locals and tourists alike. Known for our hearty breakfast, creative benedicts, vegetarian options, and great coffee, we've been serving Alaska since 1998.
Everything is made to order, from scratch, using the freshest local ingredients available — from health-conscious to indulgent, there's something for everyone. Our mission: be the best, be fair, be fun, give back, and move forward.
We're also famous for a 2015 visit from President Obama, who purchased our entire sticky bun inventory. We can't promise he'll be back — but we can promise the sticky buns are just as good.

We believe a restaurant can be more than just a place to eat. Since 1998, Snow City Cafe has worked to be a positive force in Anchorage — supporting local farmers, celebrating our community, and employing good people.
We prioritize local ingredients and vendors when feasible, accept donation requests for community causes, and strive to be Anchorage's employer of choice — a place where teamwork, mutual respect, and continuous learning are the norm.
