The epitome of a great American Breakfast. Great omlettes, egg dishes, pancakes, and an endless coffee service, it reminds you of all the best diners in every city across America. I am so glad we found this place to go for breakfast. more

Our first morning, we were just checking out downtown when we saw Snow City on the corner. We had seen some reviews about it so we had to give it a try. It was great!!!!! We both had breakfasts and loved them. I had one of the specials that was a scramble. It was delicious. Also the coffee is great... more

Upon entering you are greeted with a smile and a question. We can seat you right away, or you could play trivia. We thought I was fun, and chose to play trivia. We "won", you don't really win anything, except your name on the winner sheet for the day. But, how fun is that? French toast, hash browns, bacon, reindeer... more

This place was always packed full of people when we walked by, so we stopped in for breakfast one morning. Our orders included the stuffed french toast, classic french toast, and pecan sticky buns. All were large and tasty. We also found out that the desserts we ate during our backpacking trip came from Snow City Cafe. All of them... more

Snow City is always crazy busy, especially Saturday and Sunday mornings! But personally, it is worth the wait. They have the best breakfast in Anchorage, for sure. The atmosphere has a totally local feeling and super casual. more

We ate a late breakfast here. The reindeer sausage is great. The coffee is awesome. My friend had the stuff french toast and said it was to-die-for. Great place to eat downtown before a souvenir binge at the nearby shops. :-) more

We searched and searched to find an "authentic" Alaskan place for breakfast in Anchorage. We were thinking of going to Gwennies until we read the reviews. When reading about Snow City, we were concerned that this was going to be a trendy, stuffy atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised! When I think of authentic Alaskan breakfast, I think of large portions,... more

It looks like everybody in Anchorage has breakfast here. On a Sunday morning, we were told it was an hours' wait and given a buzzer. Turned out to be only a half hour. So, hint number one is go late -- about 10:30 or 11 to avoid the lines. The atmosphere, such as it is, is that of a large,... more

Snow City is a locals places right in downtown Anchorage. Often with a wait unless you go to the counter - place looks like it was transported straight out of a New Jersey diner!! Great soup and sandwiches for lunch more

When I found out about this restaurant I had plans to get breakfast because that seems to be very popular at Snow City Cafe but I decided to try one of their lunch specials. I had a spinach salad with blackened salmon, an asian dressing and strawberry relish. Very tasty! I also had a delicious mimosa and tomato soup. I... more
