What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bun on the Run is a long-standing local favorite praised for its delicious baked goods, particularly the cinnamon rolls, and its fresh sourdough sandwiches. While many customers rave about the quality of food and friendly atmosphere, some reviews mention slow service and a lack of customer service skills from staff, particularly at the food truck locations.
"My second time here and I really love the quality of the food, the drinks, and the atmosphere. I love the art/decore and will be excited to see hopefully more to fill it up more. A nice reprieve from the popular modern esthetic- flowers and clouds and color. I love it. Keep up the hard work! I know this building must be difficult to keep something consistent so I hope this doesn't leave. I had missed Gullivers Books. Now- this is my new Thursday hang out for this semester. :)"

"Food: 5 stars
Service: 1 star
The employees in the food truck are rude and extremely slow. No customer service skills or manners at all. Hire better workers pls!"

A Local's Guide to Food & Shopping in Fairbanks
After I’ve had my fill of sourdough from Bun on the Run, I head to my favorite boutique in town, In My Element. Sheryl is the owner and she always makes sure that I leave with high-quality, functional pieces that can withstand the Fairbanks elements while keeping me stylin’!. My last stop on my quest to celebrate another year around the sun is Trax Outdoor Center to browse at their amazing selection of LuluLemon and finish with a yoga class.
