This was one of the few places open for dinner when my husband and I ventured out to eat. He was a big fan of his Halibut Fish and Chips and thought that the batter was perfectly executed and the pesto aioli paired beautifully. I had the reindeer stew and really enjoyed it. It was abundant with meat and the carrots and potatoes in stout broth really rounded out the flavor. We also found our waitress to be super friendly. read more

After having dinner at another restaurant which was sold out of dessert, they recommended walking just down the street to chattermarks for dessert. We are so glad we did! They had the largest dessert menu we'd seen in town! We ordered a hot brownie alamode to-go. When we got back to our Hotel to enjoy it, the brownie was still a piping hot, double thick, melt-in-your-mouth delight, with a big scoop or Icecream to go with it. Would definitely come back for this brownie again. We came about 20 minutes before closing and while we waited for our to-go order we observed at least 2 parties of 3 and 4 people tried to be seated within 15 minutes of closing, but they were already clearly at capacity inside for one server, and couldn't seat that many people so close to closing, which I felt like was completely understandable when everywhere in town is so short staffed. This place has always been busy when we walk by, so come early! read more

What a ****show. When we arrived off the train in Seward (at lunch time), this was literally the only open restaurant. As you can imagine, there was a very long wait to be seated here and everyone was starving. They had two people working and I have to give them props - they were literally running around the restaurant trying to serve everyone (this is the only reason this restaurant is getting more than 1 star from me). This was our first view of the crazy staffing shortages that Seward as a whole are currently experiencing. They, like most of Seward, had no gluten free options. They made us a burger with no bun which unfortunately wasn't very good. All in all, just not a good dining experience - especially for a GF eater. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]And please if you want to enjoy the orca going up and down sit down next to the window, worth it ![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Like many Alaskan restaurants, this was a mixed bag. The fish & chips was average, the grilled cheese standard and not very interesting, the sweet potato fries probably from frozen, the Greek salad had many of the right ingredients, but just didn't come together, had no flavor whatsoever. But the seafood chowder was delicious, the reindeer stew just fabulous - both clearly home-made. Also on the plus side, their selection of beers and cider was good: Whaler's wheat beer, various IPAs from Alaskan breweries, Angry Orchard hard cider ... so that was good. When you go to order, ask the waiter about the items - find out what's home-made and fresh, and stick to that. We'll go back when they re-open in the spring ... they've just closed for the season (mid-September). read more

Sub par at best. Anemic portions for the price. Gouging tourists is annoying. Hire more staff. You can afford it at these prices.

Friendly staff that checked on us regularly, especially the food runner. Food was very yummy and my boyfriend said it was the best burger he's ever had! read more

Great, attentive, and friendly service. Decent food. I went there because of the photos on here showing a pound of king crab for around $50. Market price has increased to $99 as of yesterday. Decided to get a beer and the scallop Mac and cheese. Not bad, but next time I'll try one of their burgers. read more

Burgers were excellent! The chowder was so good too! Definitely recommend if you stop when in town!

Great place to grab dinner after a hardy day outside. Highly recommend the chowder - it's served in a mug so it stays hot until the end. Very creamy but not overpowering, and there's generous portions of seafood and potatoes. Added the salmon LT on the side which was a good toasty sandwich too. read more

The service is friendly and reasonably quick. A cozy setting with golden brown wooden tables and a streetwise view. Open kitchen too, if you'd like to watch the chefs prepare your entree. I selected the Thai coconut curry fish soup and it was hearty and absolutely divine! It has a little spicy kick to it, which is pleasing to the palate. read more

We went on Memorial Day weekend. They claimed to have re-opened for the season just 6 days before we arrived. They were out of almost 25% of their menu items and discovered their "reindeer meatloaf" was still frozen from being shipped in. We settled on the reindeer soup with grilled cheese sandwich along with their salmon burger and "garlic Parmesan" fries. The soup was very watery. The grilled cheese was soggy white bread with a yellow cheese but for $6??? The salmon burger was cooked well but the pickled onions were very spicy and crunchy still. Not a good first meal in Seward. The garlic fries lacked garlic and were drowned in a mayo based sauce which was cold. The waiter was pleasant but never returned to the table after our plates arrived and only after we stood to leave. Then they are a no cash business!?! Who refuses cash??? Won't be retuning. read more

Food was amazing, I ordered the mac & cheese with a side of sweet potato fries. we had andrew as our server and he was extremely attentive and made sure to factor in my food allergy's and was still extremely kind and caring. he was extremely patient and nice even though it was later at around 8:00 pm.The mac n cheese was amazing it was not cheesy but it was super creamy flavorful, I could definitely tell they had spent a long time perfecting the Mac and cheese recipe. we also ordered a burger and a salad. It was extremely fresh and brought out in an extremely timely manner. 10 out of 10 definitely would recommend and go again. read more

So called Fish and chips with a taste of over used oil and the fries is still kinda cold inside! We need to pay extra coz they don't have Salmon only Halibut that's why we're charged extra although it is not the customers fault! That's how they make money! WILL NOT COMEBACK AGAIN! WILL NOT RECOMMEND! read more

Food was good, just very expensive. All main dishes were like, the desserts thought were more expensive then they were worth.

I have a hard time getting too excited about a hamburger. It takes very little to earn a poor review for such a humble offering. My hopes are not high when we arrived at the Chattermark as there were no other diners in the place. It is fair to say that the stage was set for a pleasant surprise. The dining area was clean, clutter free, and tidy. We were seated, menued, and watered immediately. The menu consisted mostly of hamburgers and a couple of other sandwich offerings. It was a pleasant surprise to see reindeer meat as an alternative two beef. My dinner partner, Fuzz, tried the Reindeer Stew and the Smoky Burger with the reindeer patty. I ordered the Seafood Chowder and the Smoky Burger with beef with fries. Our food came out amazingly quickly. Even though we were the only people in the place, I did not expect our food come so fast. It was so nice to have a plate full of piping hot food. French fries too hot to touch and a little bit of steam coming off the burger. I started by looking for what was wrong with the burner and was unable to find anything at all wrong. It was juicy, flavorful, served on a brioche bun. It was a simply beautiful hamburger. The seafood chowder was fantastic. It was full of tasty little bits from the sea, nicely seasoned. I truly enjoyed my dinner and would gladly return there at any time. Our server was a very soft-spoken young lady who gave us the kind of attention that I would like to see at every meal that I eat out. Thank you to the ladies at Chattermark for providing Fuzz and I with a wonderful dinner. See you next time! read more

Stopped here after an amazing whale tour. There were few people dining as it was early evening. The fish and chips were really good. The fish was fresh and the chips were crispy. Service was great too. read more

Very good service and attentiveness from staff. Burgers OK. Fish and chips were very good.

Great burgers. Quick and friendly service. Excellent sweet potato fries. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. Would return.

Fried "chicken" sandwich was actually a big chicken nugget. Chowder was good. Don't expect anything to amaze you.

This was one of the few places that were open on the Labor Day and all visitors really appreciated that!! The food was delicious, we tried their chowder, crabcake burger, and the halibut burger, all were amazing!! read more

Food was superb and staff was extremely friendly. We visited from Baltimore MD and we enjoyed the town and this restaurant

Nice restaurant, been there w wife several days and Oscar has been great, remember food is food for the most part and the food was good but the service by Oscar made the place worth comming back to and will continue as we as staying in the hotel Crown plaza. read more

Mom and pop feel. Waitstaff very nice and did an excellent job, though like everywhere in Seward they are understaffed. Fish curry soup was delicious. read more

The food wasn't even good and they couldn't bring it out all at the same time so my family and I all ate separately. They didn't even give us napkins and the bottle of ketchup was disgustingly greasy. Oh and if you get the fish and chips for $32, just know you're getting a plate of fries with two little strips of halibut. Will not be coming back. read more

The menu looks great and the ambiance of the place is very nice, but here's my experience... I walk in and a sign at the door reads "Please wait to be seated." A quick glance confirms a ton of open tables and bar seating. A guy working the bar greets me and says "I'll seat you in about five minutes, just take a bench by the door" and he goes in the back. I ask a waitress walking by if it's ok to sit at the bar and she replies, "For sure." I sit at the bar across from four others seated at the bar and I look over the menu - the novel idea of loaded sweet potato fries with ice cream making my mouth water. After about five minutes the guy who was working the bar comes back and says, "I don't normally seat people at the bar. I know there are others at the bar but can seat you at a table in about five minutes? Is that ok?" No, musical chairs because you can't get organized is not ok. I walked out. Too bad I never got to try the food because it looked pretty good even though very pricey. In this post covid environment I would have tipped 25%.... if I could have gotten a seat. read more

I accidentally stopped in to get lunch after seeing that the place I wanted to go a few doors down the street wasn't open (a great place that features the "bucket of butt" (halibut) and wasn't until I was seated with my friends that I realized I had been there a few years prior and vowed never to return. Burgers were not great - $19.00 burger was small - same size as a hockey puck but thinner. Tasted like it was one of those heat and eat ones from Costco. Fries were scantly applied to the plate and made 1 layer on 1/3 of a small plate. Bun a bit greasy. Friends Wife had reindeer soup which she said was tasty. My wife had the Quinoa salad that she said was excellent. . Kitchen staff was s-l-o-w, and evidently not interested in trying to keep up with the clientele - as the place was near capacity. There was a family of about 8 I spoke to that waited over 45 minutes for their order. I was curious because they were there before we were and we were served first (after a 25 minute wait). The waiters were doing their best to be "charming" - probably to offset the ineptitude of the kitchen staff. If no other place is available and you feel like taking a chance - try it out. Otherwise, look around a little more before dining here... read more

Worst service. I know it's Covid but you don't leave a bunch of empty tables while you seat a couple, serve their drinks and take their orders when at least 5 groups of people wait at the door and in the rain. I left, as did 7 other people at least. Can't rate the food. read more

excellent service and really good food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]good atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] if you go to the bar as for dee dee for excellent service read more

We had a great lunch at the Chattermark! The food was phenomenal (if a little pricey - but totally worth it) - the reindeer meatloaf and mac and cheese was so much tastier than I was expecting. They were very busy at lunch, being one of the few places open in Seward on the later side during the weekend, but the staff was super attentive and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend visiting here for a delicious lunch! read more

Best meal so far in Seward! The chowder was on point and so was the fish and chips. My son devoured his burger and I did the wings as an app. I appreciate the extra effort in making the unique sauces and glazes for the wings. Skip Thorns and head here!!! read more

Loved this place! We felt welcome from the minute we walked in the door. Dario was our server and was very friendly and responsive. We ordered fish and chips and burgers, and it was all delicious, cooked by chef Meeckel. We'll definitely come back when we return to Seward. read more

Popped into 5 restaurants with long waits and pricey menus before we found this gem! We were sat and fed in a lickety split, by our awesome server Eugene. With an exuberant attitude and a great smile, Eugene brought us the best cinnamon roll style sweet potatoes fries and creamiest cup of coffee we have ever had. Reindeer soup was scrumptious, and desserts were decedent. Awesome service, great food and a fun atmosphere... We would rate it higher if we could! Thank you Eugene, the girls from Santa Cruz. read more

Halibut and chips was great! The burgers were amazing! The French fries were the good kind IMO nice thick cut and so good. Like everywhere else the staff is running a marathon to keep up. I think they did great and love they were open on a Tuesday. That's how we ended up here and I'm happy we did. Good kids menu too. Seriously the burgers are yum! read more
