A pleasant surprise for me as a non-dairy, non-gluten eater. I ordered the breakfast sandwich without cream cheese on gluten free bread, and was touched that one of the employees gave me a yummy tomato-based veggie paste so that my sandwich wasn’t too dry without cream cheese. so thoughtful!
I was disappointed, first time in anchorage and I waited over 30 min for a breakfast sandwich, when I kindly ask the lady dropping off food to the table that arrived 20 min after me if she knew when my food would be done she rudely said “you have all these people ahead of you” I nicely said “I actually was here before all these people”. When she brought my food she set it down on the other side of the table and didn’t even look at me when I said thank you… I’ve worked in the customer service industry for 14 years and wouldn’t treat someone like that even if they were an as*hole. Matcha was good though. Need help in the kindness department.
Nice place. Good food and excellent coffee. Great atmosphere and friendly staff
I found my spot! Favorite coffee shop so far. Quaint with a great atmosphere. Decent prices, and they had Nicaraguan coffee not the Sumatra based coffee! Eat in and they serve the coffee in a ceramic mug, not paper.
They serve excellent coffee and pastries with a smile.
I really enjoyed my 20oz Americano and chocolate croissant. Others in our party enjoyed their latte and cappuccino along with an almond biscotti! Apart from the quality of what we consumed and the friendly staff, I can't say enough about how much I appreciated the staff caring for a few unhoused people in the community. If I was a local, I would make sure to consistently support Dark Horse Coffee Co and other businesses who provide acts of kindness like this!
No more! I have been coming to Anchorage on business for several years and often have stopped here for coffee. It used to be great. No more, the staff was so rude and not customer friendly on my recent visit that I actually left before ordering. Not sure if they changed hands or hired the wrong people, but I will be telling my fellow business associates not to patronize this establishment anymore when they are in town.
I have been a repeat customer and I was so hopeful that when the inevitable return of the mandates came they would maybe resist like many here…but at least be gracious about it. However sadly, they are smug and arrogant and pushy about mask application. I can [somewhat] understand a place being afraid of reprisal from a government off the reins, but I cannot abide being mistreated as a customer. I won’t be back and I hope you don’t go either.
Environment are nice. They made excellent coffee latte with various flavors. However, food quality are not taste standard meal. I ordered burrito and it's dry. I personally not like mushrooms and asked them to removed it. "Sorry, its already included prep food". I have nothing say to it... My wife ordered egg sandwich, its not impressed either. Yet, their bread with blacken are taste great but not what is inside...
Swanky little spot for a cup-o-joe. Conveniently located in the heart of downtown. Quiet spot to do some light reading, work, or study. Good selection of sweet treats to pair with your drink of choice.
