    The porthole was great super close to our location that we were taking our cruise from so it worked out perfectly to grab a nice sized breakfast before we hopped on the boat. Breakfast was great. We got the biscuits and gravy and it was delicious. The burritos looked phenomenal as well. This place can get busy there were 20 of us waiting for food, but they were still able to knock everything out fairly quickly. I would just plan accordingly if you're getting on a boat.

    Stuff your porthole.

    First time I tried this spot, and WOW!!! The service was great. I ordered the Stuff your porthole; amazing! My husband had the breakfast burrito, which he said was really good too. I will definitely eat here again.

    We got the "stuff your porthole" which was two buscuits with gravy, hashbrowns, two fried eggs, sausage, bacon, and cheese. We shared it and it was enough food. As we waited for our food everybody kept ordering the breakfast burrito. The hashbrowns were mostly shredded prices everywhere, not so much cooked together. The buscuits were very soft and the gravy had kind of a weird color to it, almost pinkish, had pepper but overall it was good. The hours are 5am to 2 pm. We didn't have to wait too long for our food maybe 10-15 minutes.

    The food is insanely good, the staff is friendly. And the early morning light at the port was gorgeous.

    Excellent Food Truck near the docks in Seward. Lots of breakfast and Lunch items that you can grab on the go. We were waiting for a marine tour and picked up the Hamburito and breakfast sandwich with coffee. The prep was quick and the food was excellent from the bread and wrap to the fresh items inside. No issues this was a quick meal and it met the needs. Very good and decently priced. Not much seating other than a picnic table. Condiments on another table. Very friendly staff! No long lines.

    Got the deckhand sandwich. Was delicious, meaty and cheesy but not greasy and the sautéed onions made it perfect!

The coffee & chai was amazing. The duffins (doughnut muffins) kept bringing me back and the service was kind, attentive and hospitable. The food came out in a timely manner, the simplest menu items had little twists that made them extra delicious yet approachable and the view was perfect to start your day in the right mindset. Our family loved it and even though we went to other coffee shops we kept coming back here daily to actually scratch that coffee itch! Also attached to a cute store that serves wine & has cute trinkets. Thinking it could be the perfect marrying point for friends that need an up and a down but still want to get together. The patio area is accessible to both and the hallway connects them on the interior. Very well done.

I got a bowl and I would agree. It was salmon chowder with clams, potatoes, and veggies and bread on the side. It was hearty, creamy, and exactly what I wanted. It was packed when we got here but soon after ordering a table opened up.

This coffee shop was the most recommended and talked about shop by guides, locals and other shop owners. It obviously is beloved by its community and the line to get coffee spoke to that fact. The coffee was good, the line long, but service was quick and we even got a few take-aways. The ambiance is cute... Is the line worth the wait? I'm torn here. Coffee was good but not necessarily the best, lots of herbaceous drink combos if you enjoy that, other coffees balanced and delicious and the team takes care. However, the space seems overwhelming there are so many people that want to try it and I get why, but the line winds through the tables and there's lots of bumping and crowing in an almost uncomfortable manner which kills a chill morning vibe unfortunately. Baked goods are acceptable but not to die for- though I think maybe this leads back to your & my personal preference, geared toward an earthy pallet. 4 stars for Asthetic and product. They could benefit from an online ordering system or a counter persons who's only job was to get the order quick so guests could wait away from the service area. Too bad the counter for order wasn't near the back, that would fix the flow of the whole store, make it more enjoyable for guests and probably increase sales dramatically. Just a thought. Definitely go, avoid peak hours and order according to your preference so you can enjoy every drop.

My wife and I both love Halibut and were looking to try some fresh caught, while our cruise ship was docked in Seward. We strolled up town a couple of blocks from the Alaskan Sea-life Center and saw that Gold Rush Bistro had some on their lunch menu and decided to stop in. Surprisingly there was no wait at 12:30 (lunch time) their smiling staff were happy to see us. We were greeted, seated and able to order very quickly. That being said, the place started to fill up pretty fast. As we waited, the lady that was sitting next to us when we sat down, had a god awful amount of perfume on, after a few minutes of choking, we politely as to be moved to another table and were happily accommodated, no hassle at all. I've had Halibut many times in the past, but none have been as delicious as what they serve here. One word, OUTSTANDING!!! The decor inside was beautiful, with a homey wood vibe (see pics). Looking out the front window there was an amazing view of some of the surrounding Mountains. If you find yourself in Seward and are a little tired of the food on your cruise or just happen to be in town for another reason, I would highly recommend Gold Rush Bistro.
