  Great atmosphere, good coffee, BUT the food portions are very small. I paid $7.50 for a salad in a very small soup cup. (Salad would have fit in my 12oz coffee cup) It barely counted as a side salad let alone justified the price. Will probably think twice before I order food again. Tasted good though! Still giving five stars because I think it's a great business, just wanted to provide a warning to future salad fans.

  what a wonderful and inclusive space! as someone visiting from portland, OR, this bookstore felt like home. very comfy and laid back, with impressive breakfast and lunch options in addition to your expected coffee shop fare, plus alcohol options, which is always nice. i'd love to catch some poetry reading or live music here! in my weeklong stay in anchorage i visited here twice and enjoyed being there both times. my partner ordered their pelmeni and i had some matzah ball soup for lunch. his pelmeni was incredibly good, while my matzah ball soup was a little on the salty side, but still tasty!

  The Writer’s Block has added something wonderful to this city - for a place that likes to read and drink coffee as much as Anchorage does, it was a crime that up until last year we had no independent bookstore/cafe in town. Don’t get me wrong, I love Title Wave (and its proximity to Middle Way & Kaladi!). But as delightful as a secondhand bookseller near quality restaurants is, it’s not quite the same as a quirky independent establishment like this one, that is equal parts bookstore, bistro, and event space.
  
  The Block is awesome. The owners are often here, and almost always present at the plentiful (and awesome) events they host. You’ll encounter friendly regulars too, as well as folks on dates and others having meetings and others sitting solo with a notebook or a computer. The atmosphere could not be more cozy, inviting, and inclusive.
  
  And the food and drinks are outstanding. Quality local brews of both the coffee and the beer variety are always on offer, as are teas and creative cocktails - the Block mojito is simply perfect on a sunny summer night. To warm you up for those cooler times, the menu is full of hearty comfort food from around the world, especially Jewish and Latin American classics (drawing on some of the owners’ heritage). Basically, the Block as something for every season and every eater, and it’s all high-quality so you can’t go wrong!!
  
  The humans who established Writers Block are owed a debt of gratitude by Anchoragites. Thank you, Block, for shining a light on great books and using your space to promote the arts and marginalized voices, and thanks for the delicious libations and noshes as well!

  I'm a regular here and I absolutely loooovvveeee the block mojito and Ukrainian borscht. They hold events here and sell books, music, and art from locals. It's a great place to work on stuff, or hang out with friends, or just to relax.
