We loved this bakery - wish I had more of an appetite when we arrived. I had a great latte and a big piece of coffee cake. Great menu to chose from and service was very friendly.

Had a good meal of pizza and salad. Good service, cute place. Bread looked delicious although we didn't get to try any. Would not hesitate to return to sample some of their other offerings.

Great healthy tasty options. Only place in town where you'll find such attention to this. Family / locally owned. Love the pizza too :)

Best "secret ingredient" brownies I have ever tasted. And they are vegan too. Don't drive by the Flying Squirrel on your way into (or back from) downtown Talkeetna! Healthy breads and lunches, vegan options, pizza nights... fancy coffees (fair trade) and yummylicious deserts.

We read about this cafe and decided, as it was pretty much lunchtime when we were approaching the relevant mile marker, to give it a try. Really glad we did. The food is fantastic - the soup was genuinely homemade and packed with flavour (nothing artificial); the accompanying bread was amazing; and the carrot cake muffins and the cookies were... More

Worked in Talkeetna the past two summers and loved to send all my rv traveling tourist to this place,especially the Euro's. They ALL came back and thanked me for telling them about the place. Not one person in two years complained and most raved about it. Not what you would expect in out back Alaska,as the baked goods are all... More

I hadn't had a scone as good as these since the UK. And the combos on sandwiches .... a treat for the taste buds! So glad i could visit this place when I was in Talkeetna. I was never disappointed!

I love the idea of the Flying Squirrel - fresh-baked bread, tasty and healthy lunches, and coffee in a slightly out-of-town locale. It's just that my three experiences there haven't lived up to my expectations. My peasant stew looked wonderful but was actually pretty flavorless, I've found the cookies to be too dry, and the seating area leaves a lot... More

Their baked goods were so good it was amazing. They are just outside Talkeetna, so maybe thats what makes it even more rewarding to find them. Our only regret is not stopping on our way out of town to stock up for our road trip. My scone was the best I ever had and was still warm.

Followed the GPS to this quaint cafe. From the moment you step through the door the aroma of fresh baked goods fills your senses. We ate lunch, a delicious chicken salad with grapes and walnuts on bakery fresh grain bread. We made a point of stopping back even though it was a little out of our way because we enjoyed... More
