The Kobuk
504 W 5th Ave, Anchorage, AK
Crema's Take
“Tucked behind a charming gift shop in Anchorage, The Kobuk is beloved for its impossibly good old-fashioned donuts in unexpected Alaskan flavors like fireweed and birch alongside stellar specialty drinks like their signature samovar tea. The quirky, family-friendly vibe is enhanced by a hidden backyard seating area where you can linger with your coffee, pastry, and maybe even a beer, making it feel like discovering a secret Alaskan treasure.”

The old fashioned donuts here are delicious! I decided on the glazed blueberry and glazed samovar. I haven’t tried a donut this delicious in a very long time. I highly recommend trying both. I also got the spiced chai tea latte and it was also tasty. The winner here is definitely the donuts.
This is a quirky gift shop with a coffee/doughnut shop almost hidden in the back! They also have a backyard seating area for enjoying the coffee and apparently beer! Being a guy that loves doughnuts, I was hoping for a great one, but I have to be honest and say I was not impressed by their doughnuts. VictorB
We stopped in here twice on our visit to Anchorage. Once with a food tour, then again on our own to get another donut and the samovar tea. They have fresh old-fashioned donuts in vanilla, birch, fireweed, cinnamon. We had them all and they were all delicious. It is a great little shop with all kinds of gift and souvenir items.
Wowza- this place is a gem!! The donuts are THE BEST old-fashioned ones I have EVER had. All the flavors were amazing- especially the fireweed and blueberry!! Super fresh! Love the gift shop too- try the house made tea- it is phenomenal- they give you a warm, free sample as you browse the gift shop. They even have a back patio with fire pits- love this place!!!!
This was our first time visiting this store and I’m impressed! They have a ton of gifts from candy, to magnets, funny sayings/quotes, soaps, candles and more! We didnt get to try the bakery/coffee shop out though. Nina was super nice and gave the kids free candy samples as my wife shopped around. Great environment and friendly people, highly recommend!
