We were visiting Talkeetna in August and had lunch. It was very busy. The hostess was very nice and let us sit at the bar while we wait. Our server was very friendly. We enjoyed our food, drinks, and the restaurant’s ambiance.

This is just a real nice casual restaurant in town here.
I think our server was Helen. She’s the one that makes the homemade sangria. She was really friendly and just nice as could be. The other server was really interesting, kind of loud but in an entertaining way.
The food was well prepared and very fresh. Just a solid meal out in the middle of nowhere. If the prices seem a little high, remember, they are literally hours from civilization. I imagine just about everything needs to be trucked or by train from Anchorage or trucked down from Fairbanks!
The place felt incredibly clean and warm.
I’m sure they have rushes but if you get there early for lunch, we were one of the first table seated. It was pretty packed by the time we left.

A favorite! Great food and service. Can get busy due to bus tours depending on your timing, but staff does their very best! We went here for breakfast, lunch and dinner and made yummy noises each time! Lol!

Fast service & the food was good!! We each had a cup of coffee, we shared a (real life-size) Bear Claw & an order of Reindeer Sausage. SUPER YUMMY 😋 I didn't grab a pic of the Large Bear Claw - We dug in immediately!!! LOLOLOL

This is a small, cute restaurant where we went for breakfast. The food was fresh and good, and the service was fast. Please note that they add a small surcharge to each bill to cover costs

Absolutely DELICIOUS dinner - we got the homestead pie with the ground elk, the chicken n dumplings and the seafood hush puppies. Every bite was so good! The perfect meal on this chilly, rainy night. Highly recommend!
wonderful place on Main Street. If you’re looking for standard pub grub there are plenty of options in this cute little town. However, if you’re looking for a unique dining experience with very good food this is the place. They have a number of really unique apps to choose from.. The Swedish meatballs were something special because they used a raspberry rhubarb glaze. I heard the chowder was amazing by some guests next to us. The Elk sloppy Joe was very unique and delicious. The seafood gumbo was outstanding. Do yourself a favor and add the cheese dip as a side if you get a sandwich that comes with homemade chips. It’s perfect for dipping. Don’t forget to order the rhubarb skillet with a scoop of vanilla custard on top to finish off the meal.

We came to Homestead Kitchen on a rainy day, and gumbo sounded like the perfect comfort food. Our large non-white group arrived a few minutes before noon, and the servers told us the kitchen was transitioning for lunch until 12. That was fine—we said we would wait and started sitting down. Another server even told us to stay put while he checked when food would be ready.
But then, an older man at the bar suddenly yelled that we couldn’t sit because they “needed to do a turnover,” even though there were already people eating inside. As we were leaving, one of the staff made a comment: “Good, it’s going to be quiet here again.” The way it was said felt extremely unwelcoming and discriminatory.
One of our group simply said “bless you” as we walked out, and we decided to take our business next door to Fairview Deck Restaurant . What a difference—friendly service and the salmon chowder there was absolutely amazing.
Sadly, our experience at Homestead Kitchen felt rude and racist. If you’re looking for good food and good service in Talkeetna, I’d recommend skipping this place and heading to Fairview instead.

Great food. We had appetizers for lunch, seafood fritters and meatballs. Both were super yummy and just enough for a small lunch. Meatballs could have been hotter but definitely fully cooked, the sauce was perfect.

Delicious food! I had the broccoli and bean salad, the hush puppies, their outrageously amazing blueberry cobbler and a tasty IPA. Service was very attentive, helpful and super friendly. Would definitely recommend!
