There is no place to sit in this place, but there is a place to stand and wait and also they give you a buzzer to take to your car which is what I did as I waited for my food. Lots of options and the staff was patient in explaining the menu and the different choices. A bit pricier than I expected, and they had run out of bread for sandwiches but I was there for the Mac and Cheese. She said it might take 20 min for food but it took 5 minutes. I got the spicy Mac. Huge portion, addictively yummy sauce. Came with a free fountain soda. Will return for Mac and Cheese until I have tried all of them. Yum! Note they are open past 4pm on Sundays, I got food at 6:40 on a Sunday. They are also at the Fairbanks fair! There is no sign on the outside indicating that it is here, so be brave and go thru an open door! They do have one picnic...

When we walked in, there was no one at the counter, then a girl walked over and was not friendly at all! We asked her questions about the menu because we had never been there before. She had no idea about anything and said she would get someone else with more knowledge. The guy that came over next was also not that friendly, and he didn't know about the menu either! All we were asking is what was in the mac and cheese. It was waaaaay overpriced for what it's worth. I normally finish my meals, but I only ate about half of this one and now I have leftovers. We got the classic mac, the Buff Chick Sandwich, and the classic grilled cheese. The taste was mediocre, and I will not be going back. The tots that came with the sandwich was sadly the best part. We also, had to wait outside for our order, thank goodness it...

This little hole in the wall is tucked in right next to a cannabis dispensary, so be careful and read the sign on the door your about to walk in. Lol

But, this is exactly what it advertises. Cheese, cheese and more cheese. Super crunchy and delicious grilled cheese sandwiches, the tots are even better than the sandwich and the Mac is big enough for two or three and even more cheesy. They do strange mixes for their favorites, but with what they are next to, I’m sure the munchie folks come over and are like cheese, tots, chips, pork, ranch…. Mixed all together…. Yaaaaaas

They have a couple outdoor seating tables, but this is a to-go eatery. It’s a small little hole in the wall. Also, there will be a bit of a wait, but again it’s really small with a small staff. Still came out fresh and tasty. Also,...

We are from out of the States and saw all the great reviews for this spot and decided to try it and were left disappointed. The cereal shake was nothing special, and the Mac and cheese left us disappointed, which led to us not finishing the food. The only thing that was pretty okay was the grilled sandwich. This location doesn't have anywhere to sit inside, and it's literally connected to a weed shop, which the smell seeps through to the order room. We were going to meet some people, and the last thing we wanted was to be smelling like that.
