This event facility is recently built located on Arctic Road…read more I've attended a community event, a private event, and concerts here. It is one of few Anchorage event facilities available to rent, that can hold over 150 people. Parking is ample and the building is secluded enough from neighboring homes. The facility includes a coffee shop/cafe area that you can choose to be open during your event. The facility kitchen is large and open. You have the ability to choose what spaces you want to rent, with the largest space being the gym. If your event has alcohol you will be required to rent the facility as a whole. I like that all rental information to include costs, deposits, etc is laid out clearly online. You will not need to contact anyone directly until you are ready. I believe they even have bouncy houses available to rent. Like most facilities, they have staff there watching. Sometimes they're cool, sometimes they're annoyingly saying the music is too loud when we in the crowd, can barely hear it. Gotta take the good with with the bad ya know?!

Sort of like the Spenard Rec Center, but smaller and newer. I'm not sure about all of the…read morebuildings offerings, but they have basketball courts, a coffee shop inside, a couple meeting or party rooms (you can rent for bday parties), and I think they run a daycare too. Coffee shop staff is super nice, decent/regular prices. If your kid is going to a basketball program (like mine is), make sure you sign them in. You have to- for liability purposes. We didn't for basketball games, but for practice yes. They host Halloween events (and possibly other holiday events) that I've seen too, just haven't been able to go to them. Bathrooms and pretty much everywhere in general is clean and staff is nice.

This is a private club during normal hours…read more However, this venue is available to rent and is perfect for metal, punk shows as well as a downtown throw down spot. The rent is reasonable and the owners are very accommodating. The upstairs is available for private events and features a small stage, sound system, kitchen, and patio. Great place to have a kick ass party without pissing off the neighbors.

I have had the pleasure of visiting the PCA two times in the last decade, once to conduct an audit…read moreand more recently to attend a dinner with a member. PCA is kind of an odd place. I have heard stories about how it was quite the place back in the day, but now it just strikes me as odd. They have less oil and gas folks than they once did which speaks to how anchorage has changed, but I never would have expected a baby to appear in the bar of the PCA but it happened. The food is nothing special and the service isn't the quickest but if you want to have an a good place to people watch, this is it!

I'm so happy the PCA is open for lunch again! Before Covid, it was my favorite place in town to…read moretake clients to lunch, and now it's back with even better food! It's private and exclusive, but not in a stuffy or bougie way... more like a quiet place to have a delicious, quick lunch and a meeting, where the staff knows your name and provides excellent service. They have brought back the soup and salad bar, which is the best in town by far. So there's a super quick lunch option for anyone working in midtown, without getting stuck with the same old boxed salads you're used to. If you're in for a bit more of the long haul, the wings, steak bites, pork bellies, and phillys are all outstanding. There seems to be a contingent trying to make the two-martini lunch cool again, and while I will not join them (until 5), I applaud and support their efforts. Still a private club, so not everyone can go, but getting set up as a member is cost effective compared to what I think people might be imagining. Check it out!

Crab Cakes were cooked wonderfully, with a great crust and savory interior. Almond Halibut was a very tender filet of fish. The Cheeks was equally as tasty, with a divine risotto. Although its fish was a bit more chewy. The sauces on every dish were so delicious and definitely stood out. Bratwurst had some solid sausages too. Easily worth the price!

Not only are there axes but there are all sorts of fun things to throw including ninja stars and knives.

Staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience and I will be back!

Wonderful place. Such a great center for educational instruction…read more The woods around this area make for a type of oasis in the middle of a very busy city. The woods cannot remove the noise of the city, but it does remove the scar of roads and urban slam. The space itself is clean, and spacious. It is well lit and architecturally, it allows for multiple meetings to go on without overhearing or even really seeing one another. The windows are also super cool. Complimentary coffee and tea available on both floors.

I know what you're thinking. "I ain't no Texas 'earl man!"…read more Well, don't sweat friend. This is a place that BP built to "give back". For you, and for me, and for the entire human race. It's actually a really nice facility. Reminds me of something Howard Roarkian in nature. It's in the woods, and it kinda blends in with the woods nicely. It's blockly. It's blocks on blocks, in the woods. Wood blocks in woods. With long rectangular windows through. Slotted wood blocks in woods. That's why I don't talk about architecture very often. Anyway, as yuppie-quinoa-and-kale-eating-urban-living-trail-running-expensive-stroller-with-suspension-owning-pasty-folks-in-their-upper-30's say: "It's a really nice space" And it's available to use, FOR FREE. I'm not 100% clear on the rules but, the way I understand it is: if you have a non-profit, and you want to use this facility during the week. Then, you can. For free. I go here once a month for the Mountaineering Club of Alaska meetings. If you use it on the Weekends, you gotta pay. Driving into here/finding it is VERY confusing. Make SURE you look at the map I uploaded to the Yelp photos. If you need to be here ON TIME: I HIGHLY suggest you scout it out or come much earlier than your event. You have been warned!

Tourists, if you're looking for a unique, handmade Alaskan gift, this place should be your first stop. I'm pretty sure 100% of their items are made in Alaska, by local Alaskan artists, artisans and crafters. Admittedly they don't have Native Alaskan Crafts, but they are very heavy on Alaskan themed art. Items range from under 10 dollars to several thousand and there's nothing pretentious about this gallery. It's all acessible and gorgeous. Items run the gamut: stationary, jewelry, glass, sculpture, paintings, textiles, home decor, photography, clothing, beauty products... so many things I can't name them all. Alaskan themes are abundant, birch, halibit, salmon, Denali, Anchorage, snow, mountains, moose, ect. If you wanna buy me something I'll love, start here. It's a shame it's so far down 4th Avenue next to the dusty old abandoned 4th Ave Theater, because a lot of people miss this place because of its location. Seek it out, you won't regret it.
