I think we have new hobby. Tudor bingo. The union invited us…read morefor a night out and it was a lot of fun. Having not played some of the patterns or on the computer, we had to figure out some things. The hall supplies experts that help you through. They walk around answering questions and help to make the night a positive. If I've done the math correctly, for $10 you get five games of play. Twenty-four cards each. They also sell pull tabs and offer a 50/50 jackpot. Sadly, they've discontinued the progressive option. Blaine's Kitchen is inside and available for dinner or a quick snack. It's not great tasting but will suffice in a pinch. They have many choices, mostly burgers and fries. Each game paid out $1000, which we did not win. It ran for two hours, 7:30-9:30. We enjoyed the night out and it wasn't a strain on our budget. 03/23

I've heard her say things to the workers on the floor that is suspicious and she is the only person I've ever met who's so concerned about "who's calling the balls first" next.. and or last. Like it shouldn't matter. Went to bingo Monday night and during the 7:30 session she won twice (not out of the normal for her) then Rama started and Hayden was calling the balls. We were already past the "it's possible" point and I was done dabbing my sheet, looked up and he was looking right at her and then said quietly "that's the next one" I know most people didn't hear it but.. I did. Then next ball rolls up and she won. I know she pays them good because they always reference her wins as "their pay day" or "they need to get paid too" Idk. Something sketchy going on at this place.

When I reminded her i said $10 dollars she said well it too bad there os nothing i can do. I asked her to get her boss on the phone she told me no all sales are final. I kept insisting that i talk to someone above her and she finally called someone then told him never mind ill take care of it. While she was on the phone i said out loud sir please tell her to let me talk to you. She finally told him what she did and he told her how to fix it. I told her its the customers right to complain if they have a complaint and she shouldnt say no if a customer want to talk to anyone in charge. The emplyee started to cuss me out calling me names and threw my ticket and change and told me to get the Fu*k out. I will be reporting this to the lottery commission and i would recommend people dont go to this location to get tickets.i

I do not ever think to come to Williwaw for food on my own…read more We stopped here for an evening event on a Tuesday and ordered some food with the entertainment going on. The table service was very friendly, and the food was so so. I think the drinks are little pricy, and it's really loud. We were here around 8pm and the bouncer had to keep sending certain people out, and then they kept sneaking back in. I know it's not there fault, but it put a damper on our experience.

Williwaw Social feels like the physical embodiment of "all style, no substance." Walking in, I was…read moregenuinely impressed. It's a gorgeous venue in the heart of downtown Anchorage, sitting in the middle of so many memories for my brother and me. We were back in Alaska after so many years and wanted one last night out before leaving the state again, so we thought this place would be perfect for a final hurrah. At first, it felt refreshing to see something new instead of the usual old Anchorage staples like Koot's. Rough around the edges, sure, but at least there you can usually get acknowledged by a bartender without having to perform an interpretive dance for attention. That excitement evaporated the second we went to order drinks near the stage. My brother stood in line waiting to buy us drinks, only to be repeatedly ignored while the bartender served people who walked up after. Not once. Multiple times. He tried politely flagging someone down like a confused NPC in a video game with broken programming, and still nothing. The cherry on top? The same bartender who refused to serve him had absolutely no issue continuing to serve two girls who were visibly beyond drunk, stumbling around, nearly falling over, and spilling their shots all over the bar like a deleted scene from a low budget reality show. Watching that happen immediately after being ignored was honestly mind blowing. Not only was it rude and unprofessional, it felt wildly irresponsible. Overserving people who can barely stand is not "good vibes nightlife," it's a liability waiting to happen and something that should genuinely be looked into. What makes it even more frustrating is that both my brother and I work in the service industry. He's a restaurant manager and I'm a cook, so we fully understand how stressful and chaotic these environments can get. We know what it's like to be slammed, exhausted, and juggling multiple people at once. This wasn't that. This was just flat out dismissive and uncalled for. We finally gave up and went to the food side, where the service was actually fantastic. The bartender over there treated us like human beings, so we tipped well because competence deserves recognition these days. Honestly, the only reason I'm giving this place two stars instead of one is because of the service on the food side. Without them, this would have easily been a one star experience. And that's what makes this place so frustrating. Williwaw has so much potential. It's the kind of venue Anchorage desperately needs. Lively, modern, full of energy, in a location that could genuinely become iconic. But the rude, dismissive service drags it down like combat boots in wet cement. A beautiful bar staffed with the customer service equivalent of an eye roll. What a shame.

Downtown Anchorage was pretty dead the day after Iditarod, with no food carts in sight. The carnival was a little small and there weren't that many food options (they had the reindeer nuggets advertised, but said they weren't doing them that day).

Where else do you see dog-sled races, outhouse races, snow sculptures, a carnival, and other things all in a small area?
