Very limited vegan groceries

Very limited vegan groceries but they do have a variety of plant-based milks for coffees.
A little expensive, and no vegan bakery items.

limited vegan options

April 2017: I needed provisions while in Seward for a couple of nights, and was underwhelmed by the choices in the store. The worker- who was very nice- did not know if any cafe and bakery goods were vegan, though the small cafe menu contained one soup that appeared to be vegan. I found an interesting flax yogurt in the dairy section, but unfortunately had better luck at the chain supermarket in town and would have stopped there first had I known about the limited vegan selection at Frontier.

March 10, 2020 I had almost the same experience as 3 years ago and maintain almost all of the above, but no vegan yogurt this time, and confirmed no cafe items were vegan on this day. We found some vegan chocolate truffles that we bought for a special treat- $10 for a 6-pack.

Pros: Bright, clean & organized, Some vegan coolers & shelf products, Very nice, friendly staff

Cons: Not enough vegan choices in cafe or coolers, Expensive

Better than nothing

This is a small store and really doesn't have a lot to offer. I was hoping to find some vegan food at the cafe but it was mostly just drinks. I did see a good amount of vegan products in the fridge though. I was in and out in five minutes.

Cons: small store, no vegan deli

Limited vegan options

No vegan milk or yoghurt. Only vegan food, which normally isn't vegan, was a $9 burger.

However, lots of choice for people looking for bio or gluten-free food.

I have only checked the food, they also have a lot of other items, which might be vegan aswell.

Pros: Lots of bio/gluten-free food

Cons: Limited vegan options

Surprisingly good selection for small town store

It was great to find this option in such a small town in Alaska. Although the store is small (not surprising in a town of approximately 2,500 inhabitants), and not exclusively vegetarian/vegan, it had a nice selection of vegan and/or organic options, including a large variety of legumes and grains, canned items, household items, frozen items, vegan treats like cocomels, chocolate bars, vegan marshmellows, etc. Also, some days they prepare vegan soups.

Pros: Natural food store in a small Alaskan town, good selection for a store not exclusively vegan, Has hot and cold drinks available

Cons: Prices are generally higher than in lower 48
