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.

If you're craving a sweet or savory treat with a cozy, local vibe, Original North Pole Crepes in…read moreNorth Pole is a delightful stop. Their crepes are consistently fresh and flavorful -- the sweet options, like Nutella with strawberries, are rich and indulgent, while the savory crepes, packed with eggs, cheese, and veggies, make for a hearty breakfast or lunch.

Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and each crepe is made with care -- a perfect little taste of comfort in Alaska. It's a charming spot that feels personal, not just another tourist stop, and keeps locals and visitors coming back for that perfect, hand-crafted crepe.

During our trip to Fairbanks, we decided to venture to the Santa Claus House because this girl loves all things Christmas. Anyway, rumbling tummies and a quick map search brought us here. And I am so happy it did! North Pole Crepery is quite obviously a family-owned spot serving up very tasty American-style crepes at a very reasonable price. Our crepes were served on deli-style wrappers with plastic utensils and I wouldn't have it any other way. I looove sweet crepes but for brunch, I went all-in on savory. I ordered the turkey pesto crepe and my husband ordered the Buffalo Chicken. We both thoroughly enjoyed our choices. If we didn't have plans later in the evening, my husband probably would've stopped in for round 2 on the way back to Fairbanks. Nonetheless, I absolutely recommend stopping in while you're in the North Pole. Don't forget to stop and admire the candy cane light posts while you're driving through town!

Ambiance: Very casual diner experience that was really cute…read moreand retro inside. Not a lot of tables, but there was also a bar top with stool seating. Service: Attentive, friendly, and fast. Lots of regulars came in and they automatically knew their orders. Food: The cup of gumbo was so much larger than I anticipated. I would not have ordered this had I known the size. I'm not sure if it had any seafood in it, since I couldn't taste or see any of them, but it was still hearty and delicious. The bison burger was good, but a bit dry for my taste, so I added a bunch of condiments to it. I asked what the buffalo chips were, which are potatoes with Cajun/buffalo style seasoning that's slightly spicy, so I opted for that and it was worth it, since they didn't have curly fries in stock. Overall I'd come back again, but maybe ask for the burger to be cooked medium rare, if that were an option. It seemed like a nice, friendly place to have good food with friends

Friendly service and it was so nice that they split our food onto two plates when we said we were sharing. The Alaskan skillet was great and a big portion of food. The kids enjoyed their pancakes and bacon, which they were nice enough to make just after the 11 o'clock cutoff time. We were very entertained by all the funny/sarcastic quotes on the walls. Would be a regular if we lived in the area.

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!

PARKING: free in the lot in front NOTES: mosquitoes are a thing everywhere, even in restaurants, so spray yourselves with a bit of essential oils to steer clear of bites! afterwards, go to The Santa Claus House, take a free pic with a real Santa, and pet the reindeer!
