Trailside Cafe - Willow

Okay, so THIS place is a little gem. Stopped for some piping hot cider and butternut squash soup, which I cannot recommend any higher- I came back the next day for another cup to-go, it was so warm and cozy in my tum. Also, the 2nd time I went, there were fluffy siberian huskies waiting patiently in their enclosure to be adored while I waited for my soup. Totally worth the stop! A fun, quick, novel experience with delicious food and possibly the best cider around. This will be one of your favorite stops, and it isn't even a detour, it's right there on the main road.

A really unique menu of surprisingly elevated food! I had the roast beef sandwich, it was well above average, especially the bread it was served on. All the food our group had was yum! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to going back next time I am out that way!!

Amazing cute cafe. We had a grilled cheese sandwich and a beyond hot dog. Both were super delicious! And a big plus are the cute puppies outside. :

I am in Alaska visiting family and found this place by chance, and it was AMAZING. Honestly, the best wings I have ever eaten. I am kind of a foodie, and there are amazing choices in the Dallas area where I live. However, these wings were better than anything I have ever eaten.

A city menu in the country! I never expected to have a charcuterie plate, a muffuletta, and pulled pork in rural Alaska, esp not in the same location.! I'm a New Orleans foodie, and was blown away by how exquisite the food is. The deviled eggs on picked cabbage was next level, and there's even a menu for dogs! There is now an app that allows you to order ahead of time, and the double sided kitchen give you the option of eating on site or taking it to go. If you are going north on Hwy 3 from Anchorage, you'll see the sign on the left. You will not be disappointed when you visit this spectacular new restaurant in Willow, AK!
