“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!“
