Made Here

A lot of this starts right here.

Fresh-baked bread, from-scratch desserts, and honest Soldotna cooking.

🍞

Fresh bread

Baked for sandwiches and breakfast.

Bread is the foundation of our kitchen. We bake our own homemade potato bread in-house and partner with Europa Bakery for artisanal sourdough, hearty multi-grain, and classic rye.

🥧

Scratch desserts

Cakes, pies, rolls and pastries.

Our dessert case is filled with recipes made entirely from scratch — rich Turtle Pie, spiced carrot cake, oversized cinnamon rolls, and fruit-filled cream cheese croissants.

🥣

Local café cooking

Real food made by real people in Soldotna.

Small-batch soups, hand-tossed salads, and handcrafted sandwiches made to order. Real recipes prepared with care for our Kenai Peninsula neighbors and visitors.

HOW WE MAKE IT

The Reubenski.

One of Fine Thyme's signature sandwiches. We grill hearty Europa Bakery rye bread with nutty Swiss cheese, tender sliced corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, and Bobbi's house-made 1001 Island dressing.
