I was so pleased to see the expansion that took place here a while back. It was definitely needed! Now it is lighter and brighter!! I love the adventurous menu at Snow City. GREAT breakfasts!! Nice counter service, too. The "in-between' tables are a bit busy to sit at, but with good people to share your meal with, who cares? more

The crab omlette- very good. Blueberry pancakes- fantastic! There was a wait so be prepared or get there early. We were in no hurry so the 20 minute wait was not an issue for us. Casual diner so dress as you like. Just be sure to go hungry! more

We ate at Snow City Cafe twice while in Anchorage, what a great place to eat with bargain food prices for Alaska. The pancakes are plate size and you can hardly stop yourself from eating the whole thing, especially with the blueberry filled pancakes. We took a carry out of Carrot cake and did not eat for two days, it... more

I was there with 5 of my family members and we had a little wait, but it was worth it. The place reminds me of someplace you would find in a cute little college town like Lawrence. Big portions were a plus for my midwest family, and the variety of the menu meant everyone found something they liked. more

We got takeout from Snow City Cafe a couple days ago. Their staff was pleasant and efficient. They had our order ready on time. They are at a good location and were very busy. I had the meatloaf which was good. The mac and cheese was just okay. Overall I was pleased with their operation. more

Since the restaurant expanded over a year ago their food quality has gone downhill. This is to be expected as they now have more orders to fulfill. They should have stayed small. I'd rather wait for a great meal than sit and have a so-so meal. more

Snow City is loved by locals and it's a must for tourists. Great food, fun atmosphere (you're bound to see some friends), great service, and perfect downtown location. Try the eggs florentine for breakfast or the meatloaf for lunch. You can't go wrong! more

Missed breakfast, had an early lunch instead. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We ordered the sandwiches recommended by our server and were not disappointed. more

This is where you go for breakfast in Anchorage. No wait if you get there by 7:30 am on a weekday. Saturday and Sunday are really busy so definitely get there early. Best oatmeal in town , great egg dishes. Haven't been there for lunch so your on your own. Kaladi brothers coffee served so you have the miracle of... more

Great breakfast, but I don't visit anymore because I despise one of the owners! more
