Great spot to relax and enjoy your cup of coffee, providing the weather cooperates as there is no indoor seating affiliated with this business.

The lineup goes fast. Staff are quick. There is one staff in charge of taking order, one making the dough, one frying and one seasoning the dough and giving it to the customer.

So, imagine my surprise when of all the ports we stopped at this year by cruise ship, I would find it in Haines. A new food truck that just opened in time for this year's cruise season, Alaskan Bear Bread offers 3 different choices, the OG polar bear with just powdered sugar, the cinnamon sugar Grizzly Bear, and the Chili Bear topped with beef chili. For me, it was the OG that I was looking for as simple is often the best. For those who have never had fried bread, it is similar to a beignet but not as hollow. With it so close to the cruise port, gotta try this specialty.

SCORED AT THE LAST STOP! 4.8…read more The name alone deserves five stars! In 2017, founder Kyle Rush, a former U.S. Navy fighter jet mechanic, purchased a food trailer and renamed it Woadie's. The restaurant was named after a loyal friend as a tribute to him, but also as a nod to the group's tight-knit military friendship. The slang "Woadie" means a trustworthy friend; someone you can count on. Building an entirely new permanent structure, which began in 2019, proved to be a wise decision. We left our cruise ship for lunch on a mission to find some good Alaskan King crab, especially after our disappointing experience in Ketchikan. We walked along the main touristy street, but decided to meander a bit and stumbled upon Woadie's! So happy we took the "road less traveled". The construction looked brand new, having been completed in May 2025. There is indoor seating, but it was such a beautiful day that we wanted to take in the surrounding Alaskan scenery. We ordered at the counter and sat beneath the covered patio. While waiting for our food, I enjoyed a delicious draft beer and took in all the scenic beauty of Alaska. Then our food arrived. I couldn't really tell you whether the saliva at the corners of my mouth was noticeable, or if onlookers simply thought it was beer foam. No matter! One look at our dishes and we just knew we were in for a satisfying meal. Traveling to Alaska is not cheap. Everything from cruise fares and excursions to food can be pricey, but at Woadie's, the value is definitely there. For less than what we paid in Ketchikan, we got twice the amount of crab! Their clam chowder was delicious, too! For most cruises traveling through the Inside Passage, Skagway is the furthest-north port of call. If you're craving really good Alaskan King crab and are willing to wait until the Skagway stop, I highly recommend doing so, making Woadie's your destination. Sometimes, taking the "road less traveled" leads you to the best finds!

Everything was laid out nicely, smelled great, and was hot! The servers were so kind and prompt too. This was the greatest meal we have had in a long time!

This was in early September and the weather was perfect: in the 60s and sunny. We sat outside and both got the regular fish and chips (greenling) and it was really really good. Service was fast and friendly. They even had Simply lemonade and Pure Leaf iced tea, which is very uncommon. Skagway was my favorite port on the cruise and Salty was one of the reasons why. Would definitely go again if we're ever up there.

Sitting on that patio, having some beers and excellent food with that view, made me appreciate my life - no matter the ups and downs, I made it to Alaska to this very spot. :) Staff was friendly and it seems like this is a local spot, as I heard my server, Clark, greet some locals too. Clark was super helpful - I let him know what I was thinking (I wanted the 10 oz of king crab but not the side that came with, and also wanted an appetizer) and he suggested a swap from fries (I think) to a cup of chowder ($3 charge for substitution). He also suggested the peppered prawns. All of the food tasted SO GOOD. The peppered prawns had a punchy flavor that was tempered by the bread provided - and I used the leftover sauce to dip my crab into whenever I wanted to switch up from the provided butter. The crab was so much tastier than the one I had in Juneau with more meat! Felt like I got a good deal on it. Chowder was my favorite of the trip. Beer selection was good - I had stopped at Skagway Brewing earlier and really enjoyed their Spruce Tip Blonde, which was also available here. Skagway Brewing had run out of the Salty Siren lager (I have to assume it was related to this restaurant!) but this restaurant had it so I got to try it. Overall, I would come back to Salty Siren the next time I come to Skagway. It was definitely a highlight for my visit there!
