“Ketchikan’s best coffee shop.”

“Kelly and Tim were amazing! they kept the drinks and conversation flowing. while you are there grab you a there from burger queen next door. it was amazing!!”

“Ketchikan Crab & Co. was the perfect escape from the Alaskan rain. Their clam chowder hit the spot—super hearty, packed with flavor, and full of tasty fixings in a rich, creamy base. It warmed me right up and was exactly what I needed after getting off the ship. Definitely a must-stop if you’re in town, rain or shine!”

“Great food, the seasoning is excellent! We have had one of everything over the last 12 days. Spectacular guys!!! Very friendly and personable! Super convenient location!! I highly recommend! We are looking forward to seeing you guys again when we come back!”

“Really enjoyed the chicken sandwich—definitely one of the best I’ve had in town. Everything else we ordered was tasty too!”

“Great steak, even better service.”

“We had an amazing experience here enjoying the local brews! The brew master made a point to talk with us about the beers...it was evident that he puts his heart & soul into his craft! This was one one our very favorite experiences in Alaska! Highly recommend!”

“Sherlin was the best! Gave us awesome tourism recommendations as well as amazing cocktails. Wide range of alaskan beers and liquors on board at this bar. A lot of history and definitely a must in Ketchikan!”

“We've now been here 3 times, and every time feels like we're in our hometown bar. Absolutely love this place! If you need any recommendations, Paula's got you covered.”

“Some of the negative reviews here are laughable!

For us, it was one of the best fish and chips meals we have had. We ordered the 3 piece halibut and while it was pricey, it was delicious, fresh and not in the slightest bit greasy.

The fries were crispy and well seasoned, the tartare sauce was lovely and the coleslaw was perfect!

Easy to look past the price when the quality is so good - don’t hesitate to stop by when visiting. The long lines move quickly too!

Also we shared a 3 piece halibut and it was enough for two of us. The quality made us wish we ordered one each but the quantity of food was plenty!”

“Amazing place! They even offer kid friendly flights and my daughter was in heaven. Great place for us because they have beer, cider, and wine! Truly something for everyone.”

“AJ's has the best burgers in town. I love that you can order online. They have a great selection of super yummy burgers, and they have a pretty much perfect classic burger. On a nice day, there's nothing better than getting a burger and a shake and sitting at their picnic table to watch the ocean.”

“Great atmosphere for dinner. Excellent cocktails and friendly staff. Traditional chips and salsa served before your meal and they always do fun birthday extras for customers. Its one of the best restaurants in town. Thanks Luis for consistently providing Ketchikan with a wonderful restaurant!”

“if you really want to know what it is to live on this island this is the bar you want to go to it's a great place to meet the locals it's out of town so you get a lot of traffic from the cruise ships”

“Always a good experience with them! rarely make mistakes and when they do, always willing to fix them! The food and drinks are always good, too.”

Food & drinks: This was a must local stop.”

“The Eagles Nest sits tucked behind Cape Fox Lodge, perched high above Ketchikan’s iconic Creek Street. Getting there is part adventure, part lesson. We took the tram up and walked down the wooden staircase trail after the meal, which turned out to be the better half of the experience. The tram itself was disorganized from the wait times to the less-than-helpful attendant, so if you’re able, skip it altogether and walk up.

Finding the restaurant can feel oddly unintuitive. There’s no direct entrance from inside the lodge and approaching from the front leaves you wondering if you’ve made a wrong turn. The trick is heading around the side of the building. Once inside, any confusion evaporates instantly.

The interior hits with surprise and confidence, an urban chic space that feels more city loft than mountain lodge. Step outside and the restaurant doubles down, offering sweeping views over downtown and Creek Street that easily steal a few moments of silence before the first sip or bite. Or if you spot whales breaching, as we did upon seating.

Thankfully, the food matches the buildup. The Neapolitan-style pizzas are the clear stars, with beautifully blistered leopard-spotted crusts and a gentle smokiness from the wood-fired oven. Freshness shows everywhere, especially in the tomato sauce, which tastes bright and alive rather than cooked down into submission. From the appetizers to the pizzas to the cocktails, everything felt thoughtful and well executed.

Eagles Nest is the kind of place that rewards curiosity. Once you find it, you realize you’ve stumbled onto something special. A true hidden gem in Ketchikan, and absolutely worth going out of your way to visit.”

“Absolutely great place for dinner! Excellent service, excellent food, the building is very cool and there are amazing views. A bit spendy but the food is excellent! Definitely recommend a reservation.”

“Just good food that seems hasn’t changed in 40 years”

“The owners are great and always provide excellent service, I only go here everyday.”

“the best coffee, every time! 👌”

“Love the service and the shaved ice! Favorite place to come :)”

“We tried the salmon flatbread and crab cakes as a snack since we weren't too hungry. Service was great. Def worth a stop for eats of you're in the area.”

“The Sweetest people and my wife and I just moved here from Texas and the Breakfast burritos are PERFECT and HOT!! Double bacon with eggs and Cheese with Potatoes AND don’t forget the Refried beans!! Green sauce and BOOM tummy filled till Dinner time!! Just have to know how to order to make it personal!! Growing up with Tex-Mex yellow cheese cheddar and ground cumin makes a dish just right!! So carry some ground cumin to any Mexican restaurant and voila !! You have created the perfect tasting food!!”

“The owners are great and always provide excellent service, I only go here everyday.”

“Cool little bar with great pizza. Stopped in a few times & had the same bartender each time. Last time there 3/12/2022 and it will be my last time. The bartender has no business being in customer service. She was my employee, well, she wouldn't be my employee. Enough said”

“! This Shack here is very welcoming and the food is Delicios 10/10 ! If you are visiting Ketchikan this is the spot , try the Halibut fish and chips and the Chowder is Delicios !”

“The whole place had such a welcoming atmosphere.

The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, which made the experience even better. Sometimes the simple, local places end up being the most memorable.

If you’re in Ketchikan and looking for a good meal and friendly service, this spot is definitely worth stopping into.”

“Honestly, William earned these five stars! He was awesome, friendly, great service, just a pleasant person to interact with.
The food and atmosphere were OK but William sent it over the top.
I spent an entire week in Ketchikan and NEVER experienced the service and attitude he shared with every patron.”

“Great food great service great delivery! Highly recommend”

“Thank you thank you thank you for such a great sandwich! If you are in Ketchikan, take a walk for a great sandwich! Ketchi-club was yummy.”

“A Hidden Gem in Ketchikan, Alaska

Fresh off a cruise ship in Ketchikan, Alaska, I discovered a delightful Chinese restaurant that was the highlight of my trip. This small, family-run spot offers a warm, friendly atmosphere and food that’s cooked with love.

Each dish, from savory stir-fries to flavorful soups, was delicious and authentic, reflecting the chefs’ dedication and skill. Seeing the family eat the same meals they serve was a reassuring sign of quality. We ordered the chow mein noodles with just noodles and meat for the kids, and it was all devoured! The chicken wings are also a must, we loved the Thai soup as well! If we're ever here again, I will stop by!

This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking a comforting, home-cooked meal. The combination of delicious food and genuine hospitality made my experience truly memorable.

Kid-friendliness: My kids were super loud and the restaurant staff didn't mind at all. They made sure we had everything to make my kids comfortable, offered straws, plates, forks, etc.”

“You can tell the menu was very well thought out and cared for. So of course the food was delicious! We got the burger, gyro for our main calamari and vey soft pretzel sticks with I'm assuming in house made cheesey dip 😋 I wish I came a little later because they added cheese curds to the new happy hour menu! That just means I get to come again. The place was also just very well decorated and felt clean. Our server was also amazing and sweet and caring we really appreciate her helping us. And for the prices you really just cant beat it. Oh! And they even burn a little anchor brand on thier buns! They made it themselves. Just 10/10”

“We really enjoyed our meal and the service was great!!”

“Rachel was our server and she did an amazing job. The food was very good, the environment was comfortable and service top notch. Thank you Rachel!”
