Cute little cafe with light healthy-leaning options and good coffee. This is the kind of place to come and work it seems, all of the tables were taken by single individuals with laptops so our group of 4 ordering food didn’t have a table.

This cafe is very cute and cozy, that we loved it so much that we ended up coming here twice! ❄️ the staff were very friendly, the pastries we had were delicious and our drinks hit the spot. We had chai latte, pour over coffee, hazelnut cookie, and granola tart which were all extremely yummy! For the second time we came, we gave the cinnamon roll a shot and even though I was hesitant because I thought it looked dry, it wasn’t at all!

I live in Seattle and I can’t find anywhere with allergen-friendly food as good as Little Owl. Whenever I visit, I go straight to Little Owl. The food, the coffee and the staff are always consistently amazing. I had the Rosy Outlook latte and the vanilla cappuccino cupcake and definitely recommend both

This café is definitely a hidden gem in Fairbanks! The food is delicious and affordable. The staff is friendly. The environment is cozy. I really like their waffles, but I suspect that they have some quality control issue on it. The first waffle I had was crispy and brown (the most perfect waffle!), but the second waffle I had several days later was pale and soft (not very impressive)… If I will buy waffle from them again, I will make a note to them that I want the crispy and brown version. Other items are all pretty good (“castaway” smoothie, kale salad, English muffin with omelette inside, latte, chocolate-banana “mocha monkey” smoothie).

Went into Little Owl Cafe for Christmas bakery. It’s awesome they carry vegan bakery options. They were pretty busy so I was in and out quickly. The atmosphere is comfortable, nice place to sit and have one of their coffees or teas. Clean little cafe, quiet place to read or enjoy company with a loved one. Many desert options to choose from, all homemade. I like that they carry their logo hoodies and goose neck tea pots, very hard to find in Fairbanks.

I ordered a smoothie an hour before they opened and the estimated wait time was an hour out. I arrived first in line as the store opened to make sure they knew I was there to pick up the order so I could get it and leave as soon as possible. The girl said they were getting it started. I sat and waited for that smoothie for another half an hr. Watching a long line of people come and go after waiting in line and then receiving their food. They never called me even though they knew I was waiting. I finally got a chance when the line had died down to ask again about my smoothie, thinking the one I saw them make just them was mine. But she grabbed a smoothie that had been sitting in their fridge for awhile probably. It was runny and watery and missing the ginger that was in my order—this ginger add-in the main reason for me going out of my way to come to this cafe. She didn’t give me a label or receipt with the smoothie. I had to come inside and wait again to be helped, asked them to remake it but they refunded me instead. I didn’t need a refund, I just wanted the smoothie I paid for and waited an hr and a half for. I will not be back here. But at this point my blood sugar had already crashed and I was late for work. They threw in a minuscule amount of ginger into the watery smoothie, didn’t even mix it in, and I left for good. Their smoothies are good when they make them right but this place is too hectic. Waiters walking around dressed in printed bootie shorts and bras and massive piercings—highly unsanitary and a safety hazard in any food service—more concerned with their non-gender-conforming individualism and gay pride than communicating or making orders right, super unprofessional and I wasted far more time than it was worth here today for one bad smoothie and superficially friendly but totally nonfunctional service. The last time I ordered was a similar situation; they made my turkey wrap…without the turkey. I had to sloppily remake it myself in my car and hury to work after they handed me a few cold cut slices after I went back in. It really surprises me that a restaurant this busy has such a problem making basic menu and frankly pretty everyday food items correctly. Their greek yogurt tarts and chia pudding cups and all their other advertised gluten-free delicacies are always out of stock. I live in my car but I am going to buy a blender and find an outlet somewhere and figure out how to heal my body with smoothies my own way. Little Owl Cafe is not worth it to me.

The raspberry latte was truly amazing! And the place is really nice. I usually get disappointed by waffles in most places but this place makes them perfect for my taste.
