    Nice, quick little Espresso shack in Wasilla. They have all the usual coffee beverages. For food, they have classic carby-snacks and baked goods as well as fancier new ones: keto donuts, hiking bars, etc. The staff is insanely happy. Please compress what they have into pill form and gimme some!

    Got a 16oz vanilla latte and 16oz dirty Chai vanilla. The vanilla latte was on par with the rest of the shops. The dirty Chai was, in my wife's words "THE BEST DIRTY CHAI I'VE EVER HAD." Got it with two shots of espresso. Would definitely come by again.

    I was looking for a coffee shop in the area and stumbled across this place. Just looking at all the…read morepictures on yelp I had to check it out for myself. The service was great, the baristas were friendly, but how is the coffee and pastries? Grrrrrrrrreat! ( I had to do it!) the first thing I ordered from here was the cold brew, with sugar free vanilla and ( iced) and a cinnamon roll or bun. The coffee was smooth,and not too strong but still coffee. The cinnamon roll was otherworldly good! It was small but packed a huge amount of flavor. I think my favorite element was the fact that it was almost braided and a little sticky but perfectly balanced and not super sweet. The vibe of the place is one that you can eat your breakfast in comfort, have a breakfast meeting, baby shower, birthday party, etc. The space almost looks too nice to be just a coffee shop, the owner laughed when I told him that. The other pastry I have tried was is the pumpkin blintz. I'm not even a pumpkin guy, but they looked so pretty that I had to try one and that is the best pumpkin anything I've had. Light, crispy fillo dough with a light, airy, mound of delicious pumpkin whipped cream?! Crazy good!

    Quality drinks and exceptional pastries. The coffee house is clean and bright. The servers were…read moreextremely helpful with our large group. The sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits are the perfect grab and go meal. Also, I love a coffee house that will serve your coffee in a ceramic mug!

    I'm not exactly sure what it was that I was expecting from Karma Café…read more A cafe with fresh food? Lots of veggies? Unique and fun cafe environment? (Which seems to be missing from the valley) It's pieces of those things, but not really a "cafe" of sorts. - - Basically, think of a meal prep place. They're making meals that you can warm up in 90 seconds. Meal plans - if you're not into cooking and/or prepping your own meals, you can sign up for plans that allow you to pick up a certain number of meals throughout the week. The types of meals change every week Additionally, they are also a coffee shop using a roaster called Tony's Coffee. Whole beans for sale, too. Getting in and out of the parking lot is a little awkward. If you're coming from Palmer on your way to Wasilla, it's perfect. But if you need to head back to Palmer after leaving, it's a little tricky. When my schedule gets busy and I don't have time to cook, I will definitely be back.

When I went Jennifer took my coffee order and it was delicious! Karma cafe has prepped meals for sale as well as meal plans for each month. They have labels on every meal with the macros. The meals change pretty much weekly from what I've seen and they keep their facebook page updated. Great for gym goers or people who need some good healthy food in a pinch! Definitely going back.

Friendly service and I got a crème brûlée boba tea , regular sweetness and then a tiramisu to go. Husband later devoted the delicious treat, I drank my yummy tea on way home. The boba was the softest I've had (although I haven't been drinking bubble tea long at all) and when I got near the bottom the crème brûlée taste was super on point! Must have been resting in the top layer, and I had a bit of a hard time stirring because driving. I am definitely going to return here to try more of their beverages!!

The menu has a variety of options labeled as Taiwanese style, Japanese style, Thai style, Seoul style iced coffees & fruit tea fusions. The tea is brewed in house, and the Taiwanese & Thai style drinks you are able to customize the sweetness level. I love a spot where you can customize your drink. I also appreciate how the menu is divided by different styles. I ordered a 24oz creme brûlée brown sugar milk tea, and a 16oz kiwi jasmine green tea. I ordered them with a standard level of sweetness. If you like your drinks on the sweeter side you will definitely want to customize the teas to a higher sweetness level. The tea was really good & strong. The boba was fresh, and perfectly chewy. Service was quick, friendly & attentive. The spot does have a few tables if you want to sit & enjoy your drinks. It's clean & very open with wood accents. I can't wait to try more of their menu. The Seoul style coffee drinks were also calling my name! If you want a traditional boba spot in the valley you need to check out Hana's House!
