“A great place for a drink with an awesome outside space.“

“The bartenders are very friendly and I love the sliders.“

“I visited Fairbanks around a month ago. This was one of the spots locals recommended I try. It was definitely a dive bar, but super cool bartender, and friendly patrons who frequent it. I had a blast, met cool people and the prices are not too hard on the pocket. I'll be back in Fairbanks, and will visit this bar again.“

“Goldie’s hosts most of my favorite summer events and the drinks are always delicious“

“Thank you to the staff and patrons of Tony's Sports Bar for the great time last Sunday! We were visiting from Wisconsin and stopped in to cheer on the Packers💚💛We felt very welcomed and received tips to visit the classic car museum which my FIL loved!! Alaska was a bucket list trip for us, but if we ever return, I would love to stop in at Tony's again!!“

“What’s Not Too Love? 🥰 Best Regulars EVER!! Absolutely Love It’s Dog Friendly ( As Long As Your Dog Is Friendly).“

“Just left this location on Valentines Day from out of state and food was impeccable! So grateful this restaurant took my reservation last week via Facebook messenger. Effortless! Great service!“

“Can't comment on the food but Alexandra the bartender absolutely made the last night of our hard earned vacation worth it. It was undoubtedly busy, but she was hustling with CVS receipt long tickets, handling the bar and two restaurants by her self. To the management, you needs a barback. Several tables were upset with service but as far as I could tell it was a staffing issue, not the employees themselves. Thank you for a fine farewell from Alaska!“

“OK. This might be a little long/different type post from me but I want to give a big plus to a waitress. We were in Fairbanks Alaska at The Pump House. We were taken care of by not just a good, not a great but my all time best server I have ever had. Her name is Jenna. I want to say that she is my all time best and favorite waitress in my 77 years of being. The food and ambiance were also good. But Jenna was fantastic Thank you Jenna“

“Went there tonight for a Pro Wrestling event and your bartender was fabulous! I didn’t catch his name but I will call him “Wisconsin”, he said he was from there . Very friendly and knows his stuff. Thank you! We left our mark on the wall ❤️ 5 Stars“

“Badger Location - I called in my order as I was leaving work on Friday. They told me that it would be about a 20-25 minute wait. I arrived roughly 15 minutes after calling in & they were taking my pizza out of the oven as I walked through the door. All the staff members were pleasant & inviting. Pizza was hot, fresh, & delicious! It’s so nice to have an option right up the street. We’ll be back!“

“Best bar in Fairbanks, music is always great and you almost always see beavers“

“They had a fire special for 18.50$ - 2 enchiladas, 1 chorizo taco, comes with rice and beans and a desert - chefs choice! Drinks were well priced. My wife and I spent a total of 61 dollars so very affordable for those on a budget. Server was great too“

“Walking around Fairbanks by the river we discovered Salty’s and so happy we went in. We had the Bruchetta and it was absolutely wonderful! Could have been my meal! Then we shared the 1/2 pound cheeseburger with fries and onion rings. So so good!!!“

“A must stop when in downtown Fairbanks. We were lucky enough to wander into it. The owner was in as well and was super enthusiastic about people stopping in and he loved telling about the business and his family history in Alaska.
I had the spicy reindeer sausage with fries, pricey but good!“
