Riverwest Bistro — Restaurant in Dawson City

We liked it so much we went there twice for breakfast. It's a nice bakery style cafe with an expanded savoury menu and convenience foods ready to take on the road. We grabbed chai lattes, coffee (so-so according to our coffee drinker), sizeable breakfast wraps, toasted bagels with creme cheese and breakfast muffin, all well prepared and delicious. We added danishes to our 'breakfast' and they were good, too. (Calories don't count while we're on holiday.) Not inexpensive, by any stretch, but nothing is in 2025.

Delightful little place!

The hours are great. It opens early if you want to grab something before starting your days activities. They have a really good breakfast sandwich & a decent cup of coffee.

They have some indoor & outdoor seating. The tables were clean. There was plenty of parking on the street if you weren't strolling or staying in town.

Recommend! Sorry I didn't get any photos!...
