Best spicy margarita in town!! I love grabbing a drink and enjoying the gorgeous mountain scenery. Rafters is always packed (lots of folks from the cruise ships, plus tourists and locals alike), but the drinks are great, and the food is worth it!
Fantastic lunch & view. We had a beet & cale salad, blackened halibut tacos, juicy IPA, and blueberry herb spritzer and all were excellent. Great view, vibe, and service as well. Highly recommended!
Nice place to get a drink while you’re staying at the Kenai Princess Wilderness Lodge. The bartender was super friendly and the drinks were great!

Rafters Bar, located in Cooper Landing, offers a pleasant dining experience with outdoor patio seating. The Reuben sandwich and veggie sandwich are recommended, served with a choice of regular or sweet potato fries. The staff is friendly and the lodge has a cozy atmosphere with wood furniture and fireplaces. The location is popular for Princess Cruises, with stunning views from the lodge deck. A shuttle service is available for guests, and there are walking trails and a gift shop on-site. Recent visitors praised the spectacular views and delicious food, especially mentioning the Alaskan Salmon Chowder and Pepperoni Flat Bread, which were so good they didn’t want to share. The restaurant is a top choice for travelers passing through, and the staff provides fast, friendly, and efficient service even when busy. The outdoor patio offers a wonderful setting, especially on warmer days, with views and ambiance that make for a relaxing experience while enjoying after-dinner drinks. Overall, Rafters Bar remains a great spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy good food and a cozy, scenic atmosphere in Alaska.
