Haines: Eating and drinking

Mountain Market 312 3rd Ave at Haines Hwy tel 907/766-3340. Combined natural food grocery and espresso bar that's one of the best morning spots in town thanks to a $6.50 bagel breakfast, similarly priced tortilla wraps or just a muffin with your mocha.
Fireweed Bakery and Café Building 37, Blacksmith Road tel 907/766-3838. Coffee, pastries, breakfasts, sandwiches and great pizza served inside or out. Closed Sun.
