Soapy Smith's Pioneer is a local downtown restaurant with a great vibe, perfect for a burger, beer, and wine. The staff is friendly and personable, with the owner often on-site sharing his family history in Alaska. This restaurant offers local Alaskan beer and a good house wine. The atmosphere feels historical, with many cool artifacts on the wall, providing a unique dining experience. The king crab burger remains a surprising standout on the menu, and the spicy reindeer sausage with fries is also a tasty choice. The clam chowder has a yummy base, although some wish for more clams. While the service has been noted as slow, the taste is great, making it a fun time for diners. Portions may be on the smaller side for the price, but the food is freshly prepared. This is a must-try place when in downtown Fairbanks, especially for those wanting to experience locally owned businesses and learn some history.
