    Bucko's Coffee
    Kim R.

    Fast and fabulously friendly service with a great build-your-own breakfast sandwich, cinnamon roll, and coffee. We also got a burrito which had good flavor, just a smidge dry. Overall a great breakfast. :)

    Drive up ordering

    First time at Buckos and love this cute find! Tourists looking for great coffee to start our day and a little bite to eat and this was perfect! The lead pusher was a perfect strong hot coffee, served at the perfect temp so we could ACTUALLY DRINK it immediately without burning our mouths!! Mason, who took our order was so friendly and helpful and just plain adorable. He even gave us a one of the coffees on the house because it was our first time! Good variety of breakfast sandwiches and such. Drink menu looked fabulous for those who prefer fun, creative coffee drinks and smoothies too. Definitely check them out!! We will be back tomorrow.

    Cinnamon Roll for Marlo's
    Sarah A.

    Grabbed a quick breakfast before heading off for activities. The drive thru line was longer/slower than expected around 9-10AM on a Wed but there was a staff member who came up to take our order and try to expedite the wait. The breakfast sandwich was basic but I liked the warm cinnamon roll from Marlo's. Tried the seasonal Jack Johnson drink with banana, maple and chocolate but it was very sweet. Probably should have stuck with something simpler. Friendly service!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing! This place is busy and you'll see why after you go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a separate line for food and drink orders and both lines go quickly! The workers are so friendly too. If you've ever been to 7brew in the lower 48 then you'll love their Bucko's Freezes here. They already have the freezes made up in a slushie machine and you can add any flavor you want. So good! They have good breakfast sandwiches.

    Talk about fast service! My husband and I stopped for coffee this morning and were surprised how fast we were in and out! Super friendly staff and we even got a first time coffee discount! Latte was really good and served hot! We will be going back again!

    Super friendly, great drinks. They have 2 lines now; one for food and drink and one for just drinks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are popular so sometimes the wait is long & the lot can be tight.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They rotate specials monthly.

    Iced cinnamon and white chocolate latte, can't remember the exact name, one of the seasonal specials

    Great experience! We tried iced and hot lattes as well as the cinnamon rolls and breakfast burritos, and everything was delicious! Friendly service as well and nice they had two line options for drink only as well.

    Service is very friendly at this super busy coffee spot in Fairbanks. Bucko's has the same feel as Dutch Brothers in the L48. The Chocolate Orange mocha was chocolatey with just a hint of citrus. The locomo was very good. The giddy up and six shooter are also very good. I would be surprised if any of their drinks weren't delicious .

    Buckos has a long list of specialty drinks to choose from which helps you ensure you have a delicious coffee order. You can also customize your own drink if you don't want one of their listed specialty drink offerings. They also have monthly specials which rotate with seasonal flavors! Our car with 5 people was able to pull up, order, pay and receive all of our drinks and food within about 5 minutes. Compared to other coffee shacks in the area, this was super fast!! The coffee was delicious and the food was great too. The pretzel with Hoodoo beer cheese is a must.

    Great little coffee and breakfast drive-through in Fairbanks. Friendly staff and delicious drinks.

    Drinks: Today we tried the chocolate truffle cold brew and it literally tasted like chocolate covered raspberries. It is a tiny bit on sweet chocolaty side, so we split the drink. And the Bandit. The Bandit is hot chocolate milk (trumoo). Food: The Cowboy sandwich on a jalapeño cheddar bagel was the right decision for breakfast. It was so hearty and full of meat we split it. Staff: She was super sweet and helped provide tips of areas to visit and what to watch out for. Lines: right is food and drinks. Left is drinks ONLY!

    The girls here are so sweet and friendly! They even remember my order sometimes Im here all the time because it is the best matcha in town.

    Menu as posted but ask about secret items!

    The Crepery in Fairbanks is a fantastic spot for fresh, hand-crafted crepes. Their menu offers a…read morewonderful selection of sweet crepes, like Nutella and seasonal berries, as well as savory options with eggs, cheese, and fresh vegetables -- all made with care and full of flavor. The café has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed breakfast, brunch, or afternoon treat. Staff are friendly and attentive, making the experience feel personal and enjoyable. Whether you're a local or just visiting Fairbanks, The Crepery is a delightful spot that consistently delivers tasty crepes and a warm, inviting environment.

    I was really excited to try The Crepery since the menu listed vegan options. Unfortunately, when we…read morearrived, I noticed that all the crepes were being placed on the same skillet once finished. That meant egg-based crepes were potentially touching the vegan ones. I asked if one skillet could be wiped down so I could safely order, but they weren't able to accommodate that (it also wasn't very busy at the time, which is why I asked). Because of this, I decided not to risk ordering a crepe. I did end up getting the hot chocolate, which was actually excellent. It was really well balanced, rich, and chocolatey without being overly sweet. Everyone else in my group ordered crepes and loved them, so it's clear the food is good. I just wish there was a bit more flexibility around cross-contact for people ordering vegan options or with dietary restrictions. Based on my personal experience, I would lean toward a 2, but since others really enjoyed their crepes and the hot chocolate was great, it feels fair to land on a 3 for my rating.

I asked her which she preferred between 2 items and instead of giving me her opinion, she told me we're going with the 1st one because I said it 1st. She also seemed annoyed when she came to give me the hot sauce I asked for. The other server was cleaning the table next to me and asked me if I wanted the hot sauce before she put it away. I actually thought my server was going to grab it from that table to give to me, thought that'd be more efficient, but I guess she needed to walk away and do other things 1st before bringing me hot sauce. -C. F. S.: the gravy is good! One of the better ones I've had in quite a bit. The chicken fried steak was crunchy even though it was drenched in sauce. Delicious! I'm surprised that a bread item (was really hoping for a biscuit) didn't come with this dish for being almost $30. - Cajun salmon Benedict: delicious! I thought the salmon was overcooked but it was perfect! Hollandaise sauce was delicious. Not sure how it's Cajun though. The marinated tomatoes were tasty too! I would eat them on their own! Yum!

The atmosphere was chill, our server was patient, and the food....was seriously fantastic. It is one thing to have food that looks good, but when it tastes even better than it looks - that's huge! I ordered the shrimp and grits and it was the best I've ever had. Perfectly flavored and just enough spice. The honey cornbread on the side was the perfect compliment. I didn't think I'd be able to finish the entire meal but I made it happen because it was that good. My friend ordered the Dunker sandwich and it was equally delicious. The au jus was perfectly flavored and the consistency was spot on. I actually ate her leftovers for dinner, and if the leftovers were delicious, you can only imagine how it was freshly served. Very happy we came in and highly recommend!

    I wouldn't say I'm a breakfast snob, but I love a traditional breakfast that reminds me of going to…read moremy grandmothers and eating her home cooked farm style breakfast. With that said; Waffles and pancakes were amazing. I do like a light waffle, crispy on the outside but these were different. full of flavor, thick and fluffy and didn't taste like batter or flour. Everything was made to order and perfect. Helpings are a little bigger than I'm used to but that will be good warmed for later. The restaurant is a little outdated - but clean. The lighting is soft. At first they were not busy but as it got closer to an hour opened, they started getting busier which still was not very loud. We were seated, drinks and menu given quickly. Order taken and food provided as it was made hot - which took less than 15 minutes to get all of it. The waitress was nice and had a lovely smile. She made sure we were taken care of and we didn't feel forgotten. She did seem to be the only server, yet she seemed to be good at her job. We would definitely come back here. We got; waffle combo with over medium eggs, & reindeer sausage. French combo, and hot chocolate. Strawberry waffle combo, bacon, and sunny side up eggs.

My husband had a normal breakfast sandwich, and I had a gluten-free one. We were comparing the textures and consistencies, and they looked pretty close. Best gluten-free ciabatta I've ever had, though I've never had gluten-free ciabatta before lol. Texture was soft and fluffy, and didn't fall apart in your hands as you were eating it. Coffee and Matcha were very tasty, but slightly not warm enough. Overall, a great experience though. I ended up buying a couple of pastries to go, which all were gluten-free. There was a large selection in their Bakery case of all gluten-free items. Some dairy free Options too. One of the pastries I ended up taking back home with me to Florida and it held up. It was an almond cake. Though I had it in my bag and it completely fell apart. It was still super soft and delicious several days later! Definitely the spot to go if you are gluten-free!
