Vagabond Blues — Restaurant in Palmer

Not from the area and always enjoy supporting a local business vs chain. This place is near our nephews home in Palmer. Food: my Ruben was tasty. No complaints. The scone was alright. A little on the dry side but it was still good. Coffee was delicious. Not a drop left behind. Atmosphere: pretty much what you would expect of a local cafe. Nothing notable. Service: needs work.

The burrito was nicely pressed to give the shell a crispy texture. Overall, it was a great quick stop and a nice way to support a...

I could eat The Matanuska everyday - so delicious! The cookies were just ok - if you want the absolute best cookies around, walk a couple blocks to The Baddest Batch!

A little frustrating that when we ordered the Lunch Combo, we were asked if we wanted a cup or bowl; we chose the bowl, then when the order came out we didn't get any bread and we found out we had been charged separately for the items and no bread was offered. If the bowl isn't an option for the Lunch Combo, don't ask if you'd like a cup or bowl.

Plenty of seating inside if you want to dine-in, plus there's a little shop across the hall if you're looking for some unique and local...
