4 Best Cocktail Bars in Sitka

“Ernie's Old Time Saloon is a classic local bar with great vibes!

We stopped in while in Sitka, and it was the perfect spot to soak up some local charm. Of course, we had to try a Duck Fart—it’s a must while visiting! The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, making it a fun place to relax and enjoy a drink.

If you’re looking for a no-frills, authentic bar experience in Sitka, Ernie’s is definitely worth a stop!“

“A true authentic local bar hiding from the tourist! Thanks to one of the park rangers that we met on our explorations and having good conversation recommended coming here as we didn't want to follow the herd. And so glad we did. The history and the photos on the walls of this place says a lot of the people and fishermen of this town. And the bartender who will be unnamed...?? She is the favorite bartender by all and I can definitely see why! Loved her feistiness!! If you can manage to step out of your norm and enjoy the true people of this town, stop!“

“Kevin, the manager, was very helpful and kind. The room was space and very comfortable and clean. The restaurant was right there and it was open for breakfast and dinner. It closed at 9 am and it was very quiet and easy to sleep at night. The shuttle to airport was right on time at 5 am and it was easy and convenient.“

“Wasn’t a beautiful experience! Wonderful staff and amazing Pizza!!!“
