This place is amazing! The food was fresh, flavorful, and made with so much love and every bite was perfection. But what truly stole the show for me was their cardamom coffee. Smooth, aromatic, and just the right balance of spice and richness! The staff were friendly! If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and go!!!))) read more

We were a couple of Seattle tourists looking for something different for lunch and just happened to pass this place in the pouring rain on our way to the University of Alaska Museum. We split a whole, no pita and added a pita and a coke for $17 total. My wife and I shared the lunch and it was delicious. We are not vegetarians but we thoroughly enjoyed this meatless lunch. The surroundings are crude and the whole place feels like a popup but the food is good and the staff are young and energetic. read more

Quite honestly the best falafel I've ever had. It literally slides right down, there is so much flavor and textures it's great. Falafel's are not overcooked which is a huge thing for me because the roof of my mouth is sensitive. The pita is soft and the tzatziki sauce coats the entire falafel, which is great because then your mouth is never too dry. You can never go wrong at this local place in Fairbanks. I wish they were opens everyday but if they were I would be broke. Go visit the falafel house on college and get yourself a tasty sand which and their baklava dessert which is to die for. You can sit inside or outside with covering and they service is super fast it's like subway where you order it and they build it in front of you. read more

Super delicious food that is incredibly flavorful and fresh. My husband and I each got a whole white pita with falafel and all the toppings. We were completely blown away by how much flavor was packed into one bite. I don't think they have meat options but honestly, try the falafel. You wont regret it. For all my coffee people out there they serve Turkish coffee and me oh my is it strong. I highly recommend the Turkish coffee and baklava together. read more

My coworker has been talking about Pita Place for daaays and with my food sensitivities I thought I would try it. I was super happy that pita pit was so dairy and egg friendly. The sauce was free of those elements and my pita could automatically be a salad. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. This was a winning stop, staff was knowledgeable of ingredients, food was quickly prepared, and I had a delicious lunch. read more

Love the simplicity of this place and the freshness of the food. Their Turkish coffee is to die for

Despite being very small, this is one of the best restaurants in town. Their food is absolutely delicious, and the owner is friendly. I've been a fan of theirs for many years. read more

I'm not a falafel fan, but they seem to have a cute no -falafel option with eggs for people who can't appreciate it. My Greek husband loves this place and the people are kind. I wish they had high chairs for little ones. read more

After almost every person we came to meet on our trip to Fairbanks recommended this place. There was just one other customer in here when ee arrived. There menu is limited to 4 choices! Which in my book speaks volumes. The less choices, the better they are going to be. Focus is on fresh produce, house pickled cabbages, onions etc. I ordered the pita falafel with everything they had to offer. It was quickly put together and I began my first bite. I tasted bits of 10 different flavors in every bite, how can that happen you may ask? Well if you watch them assemble your pita you are to realize that they create layer after layer going thru each ingredient. I almost wish I lived here so I can come back to one of the best pita place on this state! read more

The place has one of the best falafels I've ever had! Fairbanks is richer for having such a spot!

I did not expect to come to Fairbanks, Alaska and have the best lunch of my year so far (and the year is almost over). My husband and I cannot recommend this place enough. Everything was 10/10. Food. Service. Ambiance. The works. read more

Pita Place - Half Pita Falafel (Half) on white. - Fast Food Near Me - Fairbanks, Alaska

Do you even like falafel???? Open during summer, Pita Place is a must stop for not only yum falafel, but a gigantic pita stuffed with toppins' and perfectly crisp falafel. You even receive a free beverage if you bicycle there! There are plenty of picnic tables and napkins at the tables. You walk up and order and they make it right there and you pay and boom your falafel is ready! The women helping me were very nice. I ordered the "Whole Falafel" on white pita. The "whole" is huge! Be hungry! It was stuffed full of fresh tasting lettuce, tomato, onion, hummus, and fresh sauce. I guess the best way I can describe it would be "fresh" and "flavorful." All the flavors really complemented one another, and none stood out too prominently over any other one. Nothing tasted like cheap ingredients. It was just an explosion of flavors! And all for $10 total! Ten bucks for all those fresh flavors, lots of food and a drink!? Wow! I would highly recommend Pita Place. Value, friendliness, taste, speed, overall a very satisfying experience! I will DEFINITELY return and would definitely recommend! read more

I love this place! Vegan friendly. Every time I'm going to fairbanks I am excited to order their pitas. I'll see you soon again!

Stopped by here for a quick mini-meal and I thought it was cool that they let me order the kid's portion (places don't always let adults buy kid's meal options). It was super cheap at $2 or so and it was really filling - they say the only difference is 1 less falafel and less stuffing (so not as wide of a pita pocket). Their staff is really friendly and mostly young college people. The falafel was very flavorful, filling and perfectly portioned and the little spot is convenient, has nice little patio seating and I would definitely come by again for a quick lunch. read more

The best Falafel Pita I've had!!!! It is perfectly spiced, had the freshest ingredients, and a very hefty portion. I would recommend going with a half pita, just as big and filling. There was nothing I did not like about this place, except the fact that it's only open during the summer. Such a friendly staff, very clean and great atmosphere! !!! Bring cash!! They did not except credit/debit cards when I went. You will not regret stopping for a bite! Open Tues- Sat, 11-7pm read more

I have no idea how they make the pita or what they put in it but it is legitimately the best I've ever had - and I grew up eating Mediterranean food. It's not flat and dry like traditional pita can sometimes be, it is chewy and fluffy and somewhat dense. The Falafel are equally amazing. They are light but crispy and very flavorful. If you order a full size pita it is huge! A half size pita or certainly fill you up. The menu is extremely limited, serving only Falafel sandwiches and soup, but if you're going to do one thing it better be excellent. Mission accomplished. So far this has been our favorite meal in the Fairbanks area. read more

It's like Subway but Falafel. The sandwich was tasty but it was a little dry mid way through eating it. They put sauces on top (at the end) so it was expected. But the falafel was soft and flavorful. The staff was friendly! read more

This place is awesome!!! Super fresh. Filling. And simple yet quality options. Got a giant pita for just $8.50 and if I wasn't so full I would've eaten another. Their other offerings were equally as appealing so I'll definitely be back. read more

Local Fairbanksans anxiously await for the Pita Place to open every summer. Pita Place offers homemade pitas packed with fresh vegetables and tasty falafel and/or hummus at an amazingly low price. The owners are incredibly friendly and committed to providing a great experience. read more

Came here not knowing what to expect, after a long day of travel. Just saw a lot of great reviews, but didn't have time to read. Boy, we over ordered and had way more delicious food than the two of us needed! Like everyone else mentions, the menu is limited, but the customer service is great and everyone is so helpful to answer any questions and the food is so fresh and flavorful. The half sandwich is plenty for an adult. We'll definitely stop by more during the season. read more

LOVE! At first I was miffed there was no meat/lamb/shawarma but the vegetarian falafel and sauces are sooooo epically good here, who cares?! Pita bread is hand made/baked evey morning AND it shows. Not to miss if you're visiting Fairbanks! Also Gluten-free friendly if you forego the pita. Baklava was good. read more

Great Falafel Pita Sandwich. This place is great! Not a regular restaurant, since it is open during the summer, and seating is outside, but a good place to eat. Even though the lines seem to be really long at times, you get your food pretty quick. The people are very friendly, and the food is fresh. Since it is a pita place, there are only a couple of choices to pick from. White or whole wheat pitas are available. They also serve fresh brewed Turkish coffee and baklava for dessert. I recommend it to anyone that visits Fairbanks! read more

The best! I'm vegan so it's hard to find a place that I can make work. This was delicious. Everything was fresh. The servers were very quick and efficient. You even get a discount if ride your bike! 5 stars because of the ingredients, freshness, deliciousness, quick service and great ambiance. Thank you. read more

Once again Fairbanks rock at making fresh warm delicious falafel perfect size not too big or small. Lots of veggies and warm pita. Half a size is good enough for me. The price is perfect. I also had a baklava. Could have been more nutty so it was alright. read more

Simple menu with delicious homemade pita and falafel. I love eating here and the employees are friendly! Fun games in the sunny eating area and the BEST baklava this side of the ocean! Can't wait for them to open up again in the summer!!! read more

Love love love the falafel. I always get a whole pita (half to eat here, half for later), white flour pita. Everything but pickles and onions :) Perfectly fried chickpea balls with good spices. The outdoor eating area is so cute (even if it does only overlook a very dusty parking lot). Hansen's soda of all flavors to choose from. I've never had a bad meal here (nice claim to fame). read more

By far the best Falafel anywhere I've traveled. They even take credit cards now, although I enjoyed the numerous times people would pay it forward if someone new didn't have cash. read more

1. Fantastic falafels. I know falafels. These have the perfect texture and crunch and spice... *Deep sigh* 2. Super comfy atmosphere. Stay and eat at one of their picnic benches or floor cushions under the shelter..or don't! The wraps are great for one-handing while you rush off to another place. 3. AMAZING service. They make you feel welcome and ensure that you are satisfied with your experience. 4. Free drinks for people who bike. Yeah. read more

Before I visited the Pita Place, I had only ever eaten the pita bread that you buy in the grocery store, which is tasty enough and makes a tidy pocket to hold your lunch salad. I had no clue how delicious fresh pita could be - and Pita Place pita is AMAZING! I love the falafel with "everything" and spicy, but the pita is what I think about happily long after the meal. I've since visited a couple of other restaurants that make their own pita. Also very enjoyable to eat, but light years away from the excellence of pita place's. I was super happy last winter to find that the Coop Grocery sells Pita Place hummus and pita. The Pita Place restaurant was closed in the winter, but I could still get their tasty tasty food - yay!! read more

I ate here several times in years past. On this recent visit, the pita and falafel and the works are all just as good. What has gotten even better is the expanded and improved eating area. In addition to wood tables, some with built-in shade and some with umbrellas, there is a covered area with low seating. On this visit I had borrowed a toddler and said toddler enjoyed the low seats that we just his size. Looking around, there were families as well as adults having in-depth conversations. They also have some outdoor games, which I love. They have giant chess and giant connect four. These were also heartily approved by the toddler. The giant chess pieces are great for knocking down and banging together. read more

Had another great lunch at The Pita Pit. As always the falafel pita was fresh and delicious, I love summer when we can sit outside in the sunshine and enjoy this great food in Fairbanks. read more

OK, I don't want to over use the word but this place is just amazing. The falafel are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and filled with flavor. Then the collection of sauces and veggies just kicks it over the awesome top. They are fresh, fast, scrumptious and, sadly, only open in the summer. I will admit to having falafel from the Pita Place for both lunch and dinner in the same day. I have also bought the frozen falafel and the hummus and the labane and the bread. I failed at reproducing the deliciousness at home. I have had falafel from four different places in Fairbanks. These are easily the best. Hands down. read more

Totally excellent. Homemade pitas. Fresh, local ingredients. Friendly staff. Covered and uncovered seating. Service is quick. The price is right. No complaints. Definitely one of the best places to grab a bite in Fairbanks! They also have low cost mini-meals for younguns, and if you have a big group coming, you can call or text ahead with an order. read more

Best falafel in Fairbanks IMHO. I've tried several different falafels around town and have been disappointed with how dry/flavorless they were. These did NOT disappoint. Their pitas and toppings are so good and the falafel is moist and flavorful. The price point is great too. I can only eat half of a half-sized one before I need to take a break because they are so filling. Their ordering process is super simple and customizable, you can buy Mama Bear Kombucha to drink along with your meal, and they have great outdoor seating to enjoy during the summer. read more

Probably the BEST Falafel in North America! Great atmosphere in the place, and really good food.

I love falafel and they are masters of their craft indeed. Perfectly made falafel balls with all the flavorful toppings. I love that you can sit outside to eat. If I could go there everyday I would. Perfect summer lunch spot! read more

Falafel sandwich or platter is spot on!! Delicious. Great place. Everything is made fresh and service is quick and friendly.

This spot is legit! If I was blindfolded, and ate this falafel, I would have guessed it came from somewhere in NYC, not Fairbanks Alaska! Cheap, fresh & quickly prepared, I shall return... read more
