They get busy. Tasty bites. Good coffee. Average Alaska prices. Tight seating. Quick grab case, but still have to get to cashier. read more

My review is specifically for the three bears convenience store in Saxman/Ketchikan. I'm not sure what happened three months ago but all but 3 faces are new and the store has went off a cliff. The deli is always empty. Coffee machine works occasionally and the counters are usually covered in dried slushie. I go there in the morning and instead of people getting ready for the day they s sitting around on their phones. I spent 30 bucks a day there 7 days a week during the tourist season and every was good. Now the staff has changed and it's for the worst. I have shifted my 30 bucks a day to another company and I'm sure I won't be the last to do so.​ read more

Went here last week to get some groceries as there is really nowhere else to go. Good selection of items. Went to pay and the girl at the register was absolutely miserable. I told her something rang up wrong and seemed very annoyed with me. After we paid, we went into the liquor/beer store attached. The woman at the counter started berating us for bringing our son into the store with us and "Why is he touching the beer?". Uh, what? I told her we are his parents and we are buying the beer, not him. She said he wasn't allowed in there. We seriously had no idea that Alaska was so strict with alcohol. I tried to explain to her that we are visiting and we didn't know but she continued to scold us. With that, my husband said she can keep her drinks and we left. This business must know that probably 90% of the people that come in here are tourists. She could have simply said, "Just so you are aware, minors are not allowed in the liquor store". I would have taken him outside with me and waited for my husband. A little kindness goes a long way. read more

Alaska is expensive and feeding a family of four without breaking the bank is a challenge when you are a tourist with no kitchen. Three bears is a decently sized grocery store though they focus on large bulk items for the most part. You can get a few sandwich basics, cooked chickens etc good for picnics but what you can also get are pizzas! If you go back on aisle 1 all the way to the end near the restrooms and turn left down what looks like the workers corridor you will see a pizza oven ( electric) and a tattered menu on the wall. One toppings for 13.99 in June 2023 and specialty like double pepperoni for 15.99. 14 inchers. We tried the supreme (just ok) and the double pepperoni (excellent for what it is) for the price of one pizza anywhere else in town. It's not gourmet wood fired stuff but it tastes like a cross between dominos and Pizza Hut. Hit the spot after hiking in Denali and was light on the wallet. For 40$ we had two cocktails from the liquor store, drinks for the kids and two pizzas. In Alaska. Go for the pretzel and some drinks. Not the meat. read more

Three Bears is the store associated with the Shell Station in Healy. The pumps are plastered with decals showing that Amex, Visa, Mastercard, etc. are accepted at the pumps, but that's not the case. The only options were: 1) paying inside 2) paying with a debit card 3) paying with a card after giving them your phone number and allowing them to send you SMS text messages None of those were either acceptable or appealing. I'll never go back. read more

Wide variety, clean, friendly, fresh meat and it is a proper grocery store not a general or trading store. They sell Alaskan grown potatoes and Alaskan caught seafood at good prices. read more

Three Bears Alaska - Outside of store - Grocery Near Me - Healy, Alaska

Well it's probably the only real grocery store within a 100+ mile radius. Three Bears Alaska in Healy has everything, a good selection of Liquor, Food, and Snacks. Good prices on gas and the aforementioned considering it's Alaska and semi-rural. The one interesting thing and almost a culture shock is the amount of Eastern Europeans working at Three Bears and all around Healy/Denali. Seems like everyone working in the area sounds like Boris and Natasha lol. Turns out they're all seasonal workers on Visa's. Definitely a surprise! read more

The famous Three Bears Market! I heard SO much about this market prior to visiting from all of the excited Healy residents. Three Bears apparently had opened recently, and it was the FIRST grocery store in Healy! It was such a big event that they closed the local schools for the day to celebrate! Apparently, prior to this store opening, Healy residents had to drive to Fairbanks (2 hour drive) to get the majority of their groceries. I HAD to see the excitement in person, and ended up visiting Three Bears several times during my stay! It was a great store, and I was very impressed with all the items they had! Lots of items were in bulk sizes, which I am guessing is very helpful when you live in the Alaskan wilderness. Their candy aisles at the checkout were particularly adorable, as they seem to stock mainly "vintage" candies with vintage wrappers - it was SO cool to see candies that I hadn't seen since I was a little girl! I thought this market was adorable, and I was happy to see how excited Healy residents were about it. Will definitely visit again! read more

This place is absolutely awesome! It is far from everywhere (in October... out of tourist season) but has everything we needed.

This is a true grocery store not just a trading post. Veggies and fruit by the pound so you can get what you want. It is attached to a liquor store and an ace hardware store as well as a gas station. The post office is very close by. read more

We stop here for gas. Better price than Fairbanks. Got a great brisket to smoke. It was so good. Such an improvement in the Healy Denali Park area. Thanks for coming. The people have been great when I shopped. Well stocked (better than Fred Meyer in Fairbanks) and as good if not better than Fairbanks prices on lots of stuff. read more
