This place is serving some amazing craft cocktails! The decor is moody and speakeasy vibes. There's a king bar with some tables along the wall for parties of 2, as well as a couch lounge area in the back. The decor is awesome. Stuart/Stewart was our bartender and he was fabulous! He is very attentive and knowledgeable. If you don't know what you want, tell him what you normally drink and he will make something for you. Just loads of talent. We were a party of 6 and ordered 11 drinks. They were all beyond wonderful. Perfect size as well. Quality ingredients. Great flavor profiles. Highly highly recommend this gem!!!

I recently returned from a lovely 10 day Alaskan cruise. My wife & I had a great time checking out…read more4 different ports along with 6 days at sea. The ship was the epitome of modern luxury and the port cities catered to all the tourists needs. But at some point, I needed to get a little down and dirty, to get away from the crowds of visitors. To me, Alaska is still frontier, and I needed to experience just a taste of it. From the recommendation of a grizzled cruise staff, my wife & I found ourselves at the Alaskan Hotel and Bar, enjoying a pint and taking in small piece of history. While a few tourists did wander in, most of the patrons seemed local and knew each other and the staff. We watched from the far end of the bar and soaked in the atmosphere while enjoying our beers. Though there was a single acoustic guitarist playing from the stage, the bar was mostly still and quiet, a welcome respite from the throngs of outsiders on the street, veering in and out of the jewelry stores and tacky souvenir shops. Both of us needed this time to recharge, to enjoy a different side of Alaska than we'd seen, to be around normal people again. Does this bar have all the amenities? Are fancy cocktails the standard fair? Is the furniture new? All those answers are no. But the drinks are strong and the bathrooms are clean. And for a tired tourist, this is the most welcome sight.

Just do your research in advance as prices fluctuate and save up. We came a week after the second location closed for the season so we waited probably 40 minutes in line. The line would have moved quicker if there was someone inside helping herd patrons I think and make sure they weren't sitting like every other seat at the bars or using the seats to stow belongings which I found to be a bit annoying but that's not the shack's fault-- that's just selfish American culture for you. My husband and I got a medium and the bisque. I heard the crab is usually caught and frozen and steamed so usually tourist season it's just rewarmed but honestly the red king crab we had wasn't chewy at all. It's chocked full of protein so even the three legs for big eaters like us and three claws plus the bisque which had plenty of crab in it as well was filling. The legs were partially cracked so for us so accessing the meat was quite easy. Honestly, all in all, a bucket list meal fulfilled.

We could not stop talking about how fresh and delicious everything was! The chowder was hands down the best I've ever had. Thick, creamy, and loaded with fresh chunks of wild Alaskan halibut or salmon. I'll genuinely be mourning this chowder until my next trip to Alaska, which will be who knows when. Believe people when they tell you to skip Tracy's and come here instead. You won't regret it! 1000000/10!!!!

You do have to walk about 15 minutes, but the dining room by the water really is the best spot. As we head to the tented dining room, a bald eagle swoops across the sky and lands on a post in the pier. While this is regarded as the best king crab in Alaska, eating king crab in Juneau is actually insanely expensive. Well if you have come all this way, when in Rome? You can order the king crab legs per leg or in a combo that also includes 4 mini crab cakes, a cup of crab bisque, and rolls. If you have a group, get a bucket of crab legs. They offer both red king crabs and golden king crabs. Go with the red and don't bother with the golden. The red king crabs have more meat and have a sweeter flavor. (Also, if you bring cash, you can avoid the 3% credit card fee.) We get a couple combos including crab chowder, crab cakes, drinks, and red king crab legs, plus legs for the rest of the group. They give you a crab cracking tool. There are a couple prongs on top for holding the top of the shell in place and a sharp edge for ripping the shell open from the bottom. Watch out for the sharp pointy spikes of the shell, so tread carefully. You sort of rock the cracker up and down in a straight line lengthwise until the entire cylinder of crab is free. There are three main pieces. The biggest leg segment has the sweetest and firmest crab meat. The smaller leg segment is more tender and even juicier. The body segment has a big bundle of flaky flesh. I can't remember if I've ever had a red king crab leg all to myself, so this is definitely the most and best king crab I've ever had.

At nearly $100 for a single King Crab leg, it certainly is one of the highest "cost per bite" you'll ever have. And to be honest, it didn't taste much different than the frozen King Crab available at our local grocer's meat counter. Some folks will stand line for nearly an hour to score a seat at a shared table. The crew are friendly and once you finally order the food comes quickly. The room is small, cramped and loud. But, again - it's an experience you'll not get anywhere else. I'm glad we finally crossed this off the list, but I doubt we'll do it again.

The coleslaw was too spicy for me. They do have malt vinegar at the table. The dish comes with tartar sauce that could've used a little bit more lemon. I ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc.
