The Cajun penne and cheese dip were great. Waitress & the rest of the staff were super friendly

Amazing food, great service, and good beer selection. I took my nieces here when I was visiting and we had a great meal! I recommend the Cajun penne and 40 below chocolate stout cake. Amazing! read more

Second time eating here. Ordered a few apps, the potato wedges cajun style are really good but the pickle chips aren't chips at all. Whole spear battered and fried which makes them pretty tough all around. My date had a bbq burger which was cooked perfectly and everything was delicious. I ordered a miso honey glazed steak medium rare and it was way overcooked. It was super thin so it wasn't a surprise when she sat it down that it was medium well to well done. The cut should have been tender but it seemed like they boiled it then pan seared it for the sear marks. read more

Stopped by to get a burger to go. Was told the bartender could help me. I could see she was already overwhelmed. I told her I needed to see a menu. After that, I was put into second place to customers around the bar. Then I ordered my food. She asked me about a drink. Told her a Cadillac margarita with the smoothest silver tequila. She asked me another question. I said yes, it sounded like a style of margarita. When she found time to get to me. She put a shot in front of me. I was like can you make my margarita a Cadillac. Oh you dont want a shot. No I want a Cadillac margarita. Please hold on, took care of everyone else at the bar, then made me a plain ass pineapple margarita. I drank it, waiting for the pathetic want to be cheese burger in photo. All the way home, I asked myself, "why didnt i just go to turtle club, and get a good margarita and chicken tenders." Won't make that mistake again. Bad service, okay food. Bad margarita! The bar was very busy. read more

Silver Gulch Brewing & Bottling - Wannabe bacon cheese burger - Brewpubs Near Me - Fairbanks, Alaska

How cool is that, to visit the most northern brewery in America!!! It may have been our timing (arrived mid week during the day), and the gift shop was closed and the place empty. The apple ale was fantastic (still grieving that we couldn't take a can home!), and so was the root beer. Everything else didn't hold up, unfortunately. We really appreciated our super friendly waitress though. read more

Amazing food!!! Very flavorful. Worth trying out any of their locations in Alaska! Highlight of my trip. read more

This was the worst dining experience ever. We had reservations made at least 2 weeks in advance for a party of 9. When we arrived, we were told all the large tables already had people seated at them, but they could put us upstairs. We were seated in an area that is obviously not used very often. The hostess who seated us took some drink orders and said she would be back for food orders. After 55 minutes she had not returned, we had not gotten any drinks and also had no water. Another member of our party and myself went downstairs and carried our own water to the table,and also found the hostess and our server and asked them to please deliver our drinks. I also told them we were time limited because some of our party had to get to the airport. The server brought our drinks and took our app and main orders. Meanwhile, there was another large party upstairs with ours. They had been waiting 2 hours for their food. The other members of their group were downstairs and were already done eating. When the server finally brought their food, the manager offered them a 50% discount. They left all their food untouched and walked out in protest. She then offered us their food at a 50% discount. Yeah, like I want someone elses cold order that isn't even what we wanted. Our food came soon after, making our wait time 1 hr 45 min. The members of our party who had to get to the airport ate quickly and then left since they drove separately. We were not offered a discount by the hostess like the other table, only a discount if we took their cold food that had been sitting at their table. Once we had our order, the food was very good and the beer was excellent as always. Also kudos to our server Kristina who was literally on the run all night and tried her best to get us taken cared of. read more

Recommended by my Turo host for low key vibes and good beer. He was spot on. Place was easy to find and very nice. My friend and I went for drinks and appetizers. Got the Pub Pommes (my favorite) and fried pickles. I got the Honeycrisp martini and she got the taster size of Tinder Apple Ale and Iliamna Raspberry Ale. The latter was the favorite. We took our books and just hung out for a while. Was a really nice evening. The bathroom smelled terrible though. My only complaint. read more

Food was good service great the local brew was also good they also have growlers for any local beer that you want to take home

We loved the food, their service was great! The staff were all very friendly and polite! Although I feel like I could've gotten a little more for the price of my salmon plate. My husband liked his burger as well :). Overall wonderful dinner. We will be coming back read more

Found this place by accident and loved it - later came to realize it's famous for 2 good reasons. The most northerly brewery in the America, and was covered by Guy Fieri in the Food Network show why he was in Alaska! The porter beer cheese soup is truly delicious! Same for the other food, everything was fantastic. We tried their cider and it was smooth and refreshing. Apple pie is also stellar. Super friendly staff. Cool vibe.

An amazing Fairbanks restaurant located just outside town. The food here is great and reasonably priced (for Alaska). The atmosphere within the restaurant is very Alaskan and the journey to it is great to show visitors. The service here is okay, but the atmosphere, location, and food make up for it. Overall, a good choice. read more

Have been here several times now and it's a very consistent great meal. Today I tried the muscles for the first time because they were recommend by our waitress and they lived up the hype. A great post meal after snowboarding all day. This place always has great hospitality and food. Only knock it gets from me is they are somehow always out of whatever appetizer I try to order however I will be back. read more

Service was slow, apps came out before drinks (which had been sitting on the bar for quite some time). Some apps came out with mains. Salad came out limp and room temp. Medium rare ribeye came out charbroiled. No refills offered on soda. About the only thing that was executed at all well were the wings (app) which came out 1 min before main (ribeye). read more

Made a reservation, but there was no need - there were 3 small parties aside from ours. The waitress told us servers times she'd bring us waters and she kept forgetting. We ordered drinks and saw them just sitting at the bar bc the waitress wouldn't come back by, at the end when she brought our check she never came to get our cards so we paid with cash to leave, we found her chatting with a friend outside. Food was fine but service was as awful. Won't be back anytime soon. read more

Had a lovely time, all the staff were super friendly and attentive! Each drink was really good, especially surprised by how much I loved the pickaxe porter, smoothest porter I've ever had! Appetizers of fried pickles and scotch egg were really delicious, we'd definitely come back for those. Entree was a little disappointing because my fish and chips had the smallest amount of fish I've probably ever had for a fish and chips plate, but it was still very yummy and the Cajun fries were delicious. Definitely will be back! read more

The food was good I would give it a 7.5/10 would definitely go back. The service/staff was 10/10 they did amazing and were so kind. Everything was clean and tidy from what I could see 9.5/10. The whole experience I would rate a 8.5. I suggest checking it out. read more

This place use to be amazing, not anymore.. The food isn't as good as it was in the past. Their gift card system has conveniently been down for close to a year now, so they can't accept gift cards. Every time I call them to ask if they got their system working, they just tell me that they will post on Facebook.. still nothing. Do not recommend read more

We had a company dinner here on May 28th. We were welcomed by the hostess. Once the entire party, which was 8 of us and we all had our drink orders taken we took a moment for everyone to decide what to order. 6 people out of our party of 8 wanted their famous beer cheese soup. Not only did they not have any beer cheese soup, they had no soups available listed on the menu. Which was a disappointment as one person in our party was on a liquid diet per doctor's orders. One person ordered an appetizer and one had a side salad, and another ordered a salad off the menu which were all requested to brought out at once. During our wait times on these items, we noticed many tables that came in after us were getting their food. Some of the tables were finished eating and had left and we were still waiting on the appetizer and salads. When the one full salad came out and the appetizer, the side salad was not brought out. The full salad was not brought with any dressing. Within a couple of minutes of the appetizer and salad being brought out the entire was brought out. Not expedited very well at all. There was not time for the person with the salad to eat the salad as they had no dressing. Then when the full order came out, which was over an hour wait time, the side salad was given to the wrong person who ordered a full salad. So, the individual with the full salad with no dressing and the other individual who ordered a full salad ended up boxing these items to go. The person with the side salad did not get their side salad until after the entire table had finished eating their dinner. There was no real apology offered. No offer to take an item off that was not made right or messed up. No offer for free dessert or even a manager to stop by the table to speak with us. We all found this very disappointing as we work in the hospitality industry and know how much customer service means to people. We are always asked by our guests where to dine in the Fairbanks area. We have a list of restaurants we share with our guests. We also happen to carry Silver Gulch's brochures in our lobby. The food was good, but the mishaps and poor customer service left more to be desired. We were disappointed in the overall experience as a whole. read more

They are not accepting gift cards. Unfortunately, we found this out AFTER we got our meal. Our giftcard is worth $100 and they would not take it. They told us it was because their system was "hacked" and they hope to have it back up in a few weeks. I understand things happen but to not have a sign up or social media post, nothing, is a scam. The only "fix" the owner offered us was a free dessert. They told us to come back and use the giftcard but I do not trust they will ever accept it. Also, we called the anchorage location and they informed us that Fairbanks should indeed be taking giftcards. there have been multiple people saying they wouldn't accept their gift cards either and that was MONTHS ago. read more

Food was okay, service was okay. Neither were anything to make me really want to go back.

Friendly and attentive service, good beer and funny Fairbanks jokes on their cups and in the gift shop. Had the potato poppers as an app they were tasty, the special bbq pizza didn't have the cheese fully melted and crust was floppy and without flavor. Will definitely come back for beer and apps! read more

Food was good, beer was good but our waiter really needed a shower! Very off putting smell. )-:

Good beer, and food was good. It was cool to eat at the northernmost brewery in North America.

Very disappointed in what is usually a decent place. Stopped here on our way back from Tolovana -- oddly packed for a Thursday night (including a tour bus party) so we didn't exactly expect fast service but WOW this took forever. Started off bad when it took about 15 mins just for our waitress to come by to ask if we wanted drinks. Then, after we ordered, it took another 15-20 mins to get cups of their famous beer cheese soup that two of us ordered. When they did arrive, they didn't come w the pretzels specified by the menu (the reason I had personally ordered the soup - for dipping!). The waitress made it seem like she was doing us a favor by going to get us some... only to come back to tell us they were baking but she'd bring them out soon. By the time she did, my soup (aka dip) was gone. Finally our mains arrived - I had ordered the burger medium... there wasn't a spot of pink to be found - nor juice for that matter. It was dry and unimpressive. My side of mushrooms was equally disappointing - being mushy. The only saving grace was some excellently crispy fries with Cajun seasoning. My friends did seem to enjoy their burger (which was cooked accurately) and the halibut. We didn't see our waitress at all during the meal and it took a bit to even find her to get the check after we had finished. This experience kinda ruined it for me... I don't think I'll be back nor will I recommend it to friends now. So sad. read more

Silver Gulch Brewing & Bottling - Not the best photo but you can still see it was over cooked (past "medium" that I requested) - Brewpubs Near Me - Fairbanks, Alaska

The price: a bit high like most other things in Alaska The location: middle of not much like most places The food: oh so good! Got the pesto halibut and it was effing awesome! The halibut was slightly on the salty side, but mellow creamy pesto pasta helped balance it out well. The potato halibut looked pretty good and the burger and fries were darn good as well. I later found a branch of the Silver Gulch in the Anchorage airport. Wonder if it is as good or if it has the same menu. read more

The northern-most brewery in the Americas, why wouldn't I go here when I'm in Fairbanks? Our party of five took up seats at the bar, where we were ably served by a bartender who goes by the name "Ski Patrol". Beers all around and then we dug into menus. I could not take my eyes away from the Pear Gorgonzola pizza. And how could I when the menu said they included pears, Gorgonzola, bacon, onions, walnuts, prosciutto and then topped with mixed greens and more Gorgonzola cheese dressing on top. The food took a while, but we satisfied ourselves with more beer in the meanwhile. When it arrived, it was excellent. Really tasty thin crust with lots of toppings. Lots of great flavors and textures and while drinking their Coldfoot Pilsner or Hefeweizen, excellent. Silver Gulch does not have any televisions in the bar area. They also do not have a wifi network. When I asked the manager about it, he said that it was an intentional decision. They don't want people here looking at tv's or their iPads; they want people to be enjoying the beer and conversating. So there's that. read more

Silver Gulch Brewing & Bottling - Loved it - Brewpubs Near Me - Fairbanks, Alaska

This is my favorite restaurant in Fairbanks. I came here because I met a local on my way here, she worked at a restaurant in town and told me that if I wanted something nice and good, try here. I came here twice. First of all, $1.75 tasting for their house brews, Seriously delicious. Hush puppies are with shrimp and shredded coconuts. Ale cheese soup is delicious despite how strange it sounds. Alaska halibut was sweet, flaky and plenty for what you pay for. The next night, try fish and chips. They use large flaky halibut as the fish, it's easily sharable with two or more people. Beer battered onion rings are out of this world. The ale bathed shrimp as an appetizer is more than enough to consume as an entree. For people from major metro areas, Alaska native food prices are beyond reasonable. The real thing that I have noticed that locals there do not use Yelp often. The review ratings are not necessarily reflective of its food quality. The restaurants were very crowded and filled with locals here. You have to really do your homework and get your arms around the real eats to make an educated assessment. Don't be disturbed by its 3.5 star rating. Silver Gulch is also in the Anchorage airport so you know their bier is well known. Did I mention it is the northern most brewery in America? Oh yes I just did. And let's not forget, this is a Food Network darling, with a super cool rehabbed building. read more

The food here is amazing! Probably the best brewery food I've had. See photos. Drool! How often do you get to visit a prolific brewery, the most Northern brewery in America? I'm not sure but usually, places with fancy fun facts are mediocre in other things. Not the case here. The selection of beer is WIDE. They even had a large selection of sours which was impressive. I will note the apricot sour while good was not as sour as I expected. My favorite beer on draft, and I had tried a few (they were so patient with me), is the Northern Light. It was light and refreshing. I don't usually love beer and prefer ciders but that went down way easy. There is an abundance of parking - could be because I visited during the dead of winter but coming from the Bay Area, that is a huge plus. Fun fact I learned about the Executive Chef, he trained at Buchón in San Francisco for a couple of weeks and had worked at other renown restaurants around America. It explains a lot when I saw and tasted the food. Seriously, the best brewery food I've had and I travel quite a bit. For my experience, I sat at the bar with friendly locals. The bartender was awesome, bathrooms were clean, food was amazing and beer was good. I'd definitely come back. :) read more

Came here on a Monday night, not too crowded, no wait to be seated. Ordered the pizza and bbq burger, Brussel Sprouts for our app. All the food tasted very good as well as their beers. The only downside to our experience was the wait for our food to arrive. Guessing that since it was a Monday day night, maybe they were running with minimum back of house staff? Like everywhere we eat, sometimes it takes a little while to be served, and we get it. But, having to wait beyond a reasonable amount of time brought down our dining experience a bit. read more

amazing and good in both food and drinks and ambiance . so good keep it going and i will be back !

Potato "encrusted" halibut This was a delicious dish despite the overcooked fish. But the thing that gets me about this dish is the wording. The menu claims potato encrusted, so I would assume the entire piece of fish would be wrapped in some sort of potato crust. Nope, my assumption is wrong.... What The Silver Gulch claims as a piece of encrusted fish is 4 very thinly sliced slivers of potatoes set on top of the fish. I would call this a garnish at best, but I'm not a chef at The Silver Gulch... Im really big on misleading menus, simple words to describe a dish and yet something else is served to you. Just leads to a disappointing meal no matter how good it might be. Beer is good, some very tasty appetizers as well... It's worth a trip to eat and drink though. But if I'm driving out this way it might as well be Turtle Club, best prim rib ever! read more

Silver Gulch Brewing & Bottling - a truck parked in front of a restaurant - Brewpubs Near Me - Fairbanks, Alaska

Good food. Gawd awful service, for timeliness. The waiter was as helpful as he could be, I think. The waiter does not control the output from the kitchen. Our experience is similar to Cory's. We went for dinner. It took us 45 minutes and a few tables turning over near us that were empty when we sat down, before 2 of the 8 of us at our table decided to ask for the manager. Meanwhile, a waiter for another table fell and spilled French Fried potatoes coming from the 1st to the 2nd floor. The serving actions, for the other tables did not slow down much and the taters stayed on the floor,(all the workers and waitstaff just stepped over the mess) for at least another 30 minutes until one of us advised the manager that the taters on the floor were a safety issue. Duh........ I would have left if I had been driving. Alas, I was not. Neither the food nor the beer is so exceptional that customers should except this level of service. Summarizing, the manager's explanation was "growing pains". She was new, hired in last 2 weeks, so she said. Also the business is expanding so fast, that the kitchen is understaffed. Wait! Us customers can help solve this problem. Just stay away until they can work out the kinks. If the process is broken, fix it! Please. If you must go, do not go on a near empty stomach. Eat a snack before going to dinner. (Life is full of irony.) The cheese soup is excellent. Ask for a cup instead of a bowl if you only want a reasonable amount. The portion sizes tend to be huge. Unless you are a big eater, consider sharing meals, especially if you are a tourist like us and want to taste more that a one main entree. read more
