We stumbled into this place by accident. We’re here mid September & I guess most places have adopted winter hours meaning they don’t open until 4pm. Halibut & chips 9/10 only because there were only 5. Maybe that’s normal, regardless they were really good. Hubby has the sirloin burger and also liked it. Great lil’ outside seating area with a couple fire places for warmth (& blankets upon request) and ambiance. Excellent, polite, helpful staff.

Great food Clean and pleasant atmosphere Wonderful vibe
The bartender run the whole front of house with precision and efficiency. What a wonderful woman!!!!
We were a group of 12, taking up her two booths and a couple of seats at the bar. She was a super star.
Drinks were cold, food was hot and delicious. Excellent sized dishes. Several is us had the chowder, yum yum yum.
Fish and chips, great seasoning in the fries. The fish was yummy, the batter was just thick enough to give a really nice flavor but not hide the nice fish inside.
The shrimp i think was the same batter, very nice.
And of course our picky eater enjoyed a very nice cheese burger.
Highly recommended.

It was exactly as advertised, accommodation above the 100 year old pub in Talkeetna. The rooms were basic but spotlessly clean as were the 2 shared bathrooms. The one with the claw bath was great! We were in on a Saturday night so figured we wouldn't get much sleep, but we lucked out as the band was excellent so we partied until 1.00 along with all the locals. Good fun!

Great place off the Parks highway about 15 miles. This whole town is a vibe and The Fairview is its epicenter.

The patio was great at first - we loved the fire pit and appreciated the blankets provided for customers as it was chilly, but (and this isn’t entirely the restaurant’s fault) the crowds of people coming in from the cruise line buses really put a damper on our experience. There was a very long wait for the bathrooms, food service was slow as there was only a couple of waitresses for the entire place, the food is cooked at a small food truck parked next to the patio so it took awhile due to the crowds, and there were tons of people crowding around the tables arriving from the buses. The menu was limited, with no kids menu as well and the food was pricey for what you get. Overall the taste of the food was decent and I think the patio and our experience would’ve been much different had we not gotten there minutes before hoards of people from multiple cruise lines arrived.

Rustic location with excellent cocktails. Didn't eat but the location has a nice bar, outside seating and a little museum inside.
This is the highlight and cornerstone of Talkeetna. Autumn, our bartender, was so nice and informative. The beers are cold, the drinks are great and the salmon chowder is to die for. The inside bar is quite cool/rustic and the outdoor space is trendy/lively/crowded when the bus loads arrive! (Insider tip….hang inside with Autumn! VictorB

We were greeted with friendly faces and served right away. The food option was slim and there is no kids menu. The food comes out in paper plates and the flavor mid. I was excited to try the salmon chowder and halibut but it was also mid. The chowder had no salmon chunks in it, maybe just a bit to flavor the broth? The fish and chips came on a paper plate and barely fill the plate, 4 small pieces of halibut and maybe a cup and half of fries? But for 29$ I was hoping for more. We order 4 pieces of chicken tenders which eventually found out (a day after) that it was 9$ per piece so 36$ for 4 chicken tenders and charged for a side of fries that I initially asked for decide not to get and was not taken out. Granted the waitress was busy towards the end, we waited for a bit to pay. Overall, will not come back for the food.

tourist trap! Don't let the looks fool you. The food is cooked out of a food truck and served on a paper plate, yet they charge upscale prices. Save your money and go to the brewery next door instead. This place is not for locals, and we certainly won't be returning.
