    Becoming one of our traditions when in Juneau. Nice little outside bar with wonderful fire pits. They feature Alaska made spirits and the bartenders are very friendly and helpful. Great place to grab a local cocktail on your way back from your daily adventure.

    Cute place with outdoor space and fire pits in the heart of downtown. Great to gather a big group and mingle, easy to find on the corner. Park downtown and walk. Lots of drink options including canned cocktails for people who want something that's easy to order but not beer.

    After dinner near by we stopped at this bar for some drinks, as it usually is in Juneau it was a drizzly evening with light rain & cool temps. For drinks we ordered the Hot toddy this was perfect for the night as we sat by the fire, good music playing. The bar over looks the pier & water at night it was nice since the fire pits are on great to just relax & enjoy some music & cocktails. This was the perfect outdoor spot for our night . the Bartender was nice & friendly , good drinks, service & prices great spot for enjoying a nice evening or day.

    Nice Chuli Stout, warm fire pit,,

    Fun place to warm up on a brisk Juneau afternoon, luv the fire pits, down side is chairs a little low, had a nice stout, did not get the waitress name but she was on point, a taco truck is next door that's another review. Meet up with a local friend and had a nice visit, will stop in again.

    An excellent grapefruit gin and tonic from a local distillery.

    Perfect spot for outdoor happy hour on a sunny Juneau day. The views are spectacular: snow capped mountains, water everywhere, boats, and float planes. Fire pits for when it gets chilly. For drinks, I only had the Juneauper, a canned grapefruit gin and tonic made by an excellent local gin distillery. Very tasty. Nice energy from the bartender as well!

    This is easily one of the best bars in Juneau. Its simple outdoor location is one of the top spots in town to meet up with other locals.

    Now Thursdays are a kicker.... They got an all you can eat deal for $50 so there will be one heck…read moreof a line but don't stray! Stay! Cause good golly, wow the first few bites of the crab bisque were insanely delicious!! Probably the best I've ever had. One bite and my eyes were wiiide open like I'd seen a ghost... You know when they say, "save the best for last"? This crab bisque was exactly that. It was so rich and creamy, really incredible. If money wasn't a thang, I'd serve this to every single one of my guests at my wedding (if I ever got married.) I only had a few bites of this bisque cause I knew it was too good and I had two make every bite count so I moved onto the sliders. And the sliders were cutely arranged. They had the perfect amount of spice. The large picks were perfect to keep the sliders in tack. If I had to choose being a slider girl versus breaking up a crab open. This is the way to go. I'm not breaking the bank and I'm enjoying my meal just as much. And I'm not making a mess of myself. But don't let me stray you from getting the whole crab if you're looking for a lot of meat in your mouth. Honestly, I don't know how people do that 'all you can eat' thang on Thursdays because the sliders and crab bisque was more than enough food for me. But if you're looking for a good mixture of coleslaw, spicy sauce, crab n' crabcake then this IS the right choice. Now, if you're a messy eater like me, you'll probably have a lil' bit slipping out of your sliders, but that's fine! This is when you grab yourself a fork and then you got yourself a lil' crabcake coleslaw salad afterwards. Now let's talk about the view, well hot dang! It's like something out of the travel channel! Hello National Geographic, you have a beautifulll view of the water with the mountains in the background. There are tourist traps, and then there's a tourist's paradise, and right here up in the harbor on Whittier Street is a lil' slice of heaven like you ain't never seen.

    The first location of this restaurant is renowned for its amazing crab. A local told us about this…read morelocation, where there was no wait. We ended up tasting the Red King Crab, the Gold King Crab, the Snow Crab, the "limited special" shelled seafood cup, the lobster bisque, the crab cakes, the rolls, the fries, and the queso. We also had the iced tea cocktail. I personally prefer Snow Crab and it did not disappoint The Iced tea cocktail was also really good. While it is not my preference the Red King Crab leg was also outstanding. Had these been my only items, I would have given the review 5 stars. The lobster bisque, queso, fries and rolls were good if you are in the mood for those items specifically. The seafood cup, which you would think came from the same crabs, was disappointing. It was dry and required the cocktail sauce and lemon. The photograph made it look like there were big chunks, but it was pretty much shredded. I asked the older lady cashier about it when we first ordered the crab legs and then ordered this in our second round. I feel she could have given a little more infirmation about it. Either way, I would not order that or the crab cakes again. If I am even in Juneau again, I'd definitely save my money up fir a stop here!
