My kind of place, away from the majority of tourists, frequented by locals and they have cheap beer. What more can I ask for?

Beer, served cold. Often great live music from the Potlatch Band. Food, not so much. Lots of 'local color'. I love it.

A nice little bar by the water. Beer and shots are cold, crowd is friendly, no nonsense. The perfect place for good drink and good company.

The tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. He made this pub crawl the best!

Nice karaoke joint, friendly crowd, nice spot. Very cramped with limited seating.

Just a great little dive on the water in Ketchikan. I can imagine it's just like home...

Unless your a local NOT very welcoming or friendly towards tourist… Bartender had less than zero personality… However Ketchikan businesses in general seemed to lack an appreciation for the tourist industry - I’ve looked forward for years to visit Alaska - however, I’ve found better hospitality in Afghanistan than in Ketchikan…. Stateside hospitality has not reached Ketchikan - no wonder the cruise industry is preparing to bypass Ketchikan… it’s establishments like this that hinder economic growth and development in what appears to be an already economic depressed area on the brink of collapse…

If you're looking to get a break from the Cruise and have some$5 beers this is the place. No taps but everybody was cool.

Still the same fisherman's bar it has always been. One of the few things that hasn't changed.
