    The Bar and a Tatunka.
    MaryJ N.

    Kool joint in Juneau, Alaska. It's double sided. You can enter through 1 of two doors. One door will take you into the Bar. There is a wall but the wall ends in about 20 feet. on the otherside of the wall you can walk up and order food and sit and eat. There is also a door you can enter from, it's right next to the Bar entrance. They have a pool table as well. They will bring your food to the Bar or wherever you are sitting. The Tacos were decent. The Buttery Nipple that the bartender made was bomb.

    Chicken tenders

    This might be what you're looking for if you're looking for a wrap, burger, or just something hot. Service has always been good with every visit. This is one of the few places downtown with a pool table. The lighting is poor but if you want to just sit and have something as simple as chicken tenders then this is the place for you. My tenders were the average out of the freezer bag BUT they were fried in clean oil and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

    Just a cool place to grab a beer! Bartenders are just amazing and wicked friendly. Good mix of locals and tourists. Definitely stop here every time I am in Juneau. Support local!!!!

    Oh my, oh my - the owner (Shelly) of this establishment is the prime example of what an exceptional shopkeeper should emulate! Shelly truly has it going on - she is friendly, knows her products and is kindly accommodating! The Imperial serves (much more than) tasty fun food - make sure to give it a try! Thank you!

    Great hole in the wall to watch football with a good selection of local draught beers. The bartender wasn't very friendly, but she was at least attentive.

    Long bar counter

    Place was empty but the bartender was cranky and preferred to spend her time at one end of the bar. The guy at the food counter was friendly.

    We really enjoyed Imperial Bar. Most tourists went to the Red Dog because it seems like the place to go since I suppose it's closest to the port perhaps? But me and my wife like to dig in and go have a brew with the locals. That's what the Imperial is. A little off the beaten path but gives you a great taste of a local Alaskan bar. Red Dog might as well have been an Applebees. Great ambiance and service.

    I went to this spot for my birthday. Not because I wanted to, but because we got into Juneau "late". And, like most of a Alaska, food options are almost non-existent in Juneau after 10pm. I walked in, saw the menu items and thought "alight, this is the classic 'anything we can make with a freezer and a frier' food" you find all over rural Alaska. Expectations set to: low. I am happy to report that I could not be more wrong! Despite the menu items all looking generic and plain, there is a lot of character here! I got a crunch wrap and it tasted exactly how my friends that love Taco Bell describe Taco Bell...I say describe because Taco Bell is very bland food to me, it's not even good in a 'guilty pleasure' way...it's just...plain. My partner got the burger, which looked amazing! Service and process were also spot-on. And, of course, this place is also a bar so you can drink while you wait!

    One of our stops during our impromptu Alaskan bar crawl , we came in & sat by the bar area. Drinks, Vodka & cranberry not bad & some local beer , good as well. we also got an order of Tater tots , the tots were good .. hit the spot while drinking. decent size bar, fun décor & decent music playing.. service was good we enjoyed our time here.

    See all

    Nice drinks and atmosphere mid day. The bar tender was friendly and we enjoyed popping in for a quick drink.

Mexican coke and a red wine perfected the meal. Thanks to the fantabulous staff of the bar and the grill. We will be back soon. I want to try the lamb gyro and partner wants a burger. Yum yum and so very affordable! Huge portions filled us ! And a cozy place to sit!

    Alaska's oldest bar! Well, it is an impressive bar along one wall and an independent vendor across…read morethe room makes a lot of good snacks and munchies for lunch or simple dinner. We were hungry for "something" but not a meal, per se. Asking around, we were directed to Imperial Grill. Very happy to find it. Yes, the bar had everything, and we did have some hard cider, but paid for the bar items at the bar, with the food vendor running a separate register. The grill menu is great. Look at it. Baskets ($8 - 10) of fries, chicken tenders, jalapeno poppers. An after school special ($2.75) is mozzarella, bacon and jalapenos fried in an egg roll wrapper with sriracha sour cream. Go for it! Mexican flair ($5 - 16) with burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, nachos and taquitos. Also an array of tacos ($2.75 - 6). Sandwiches and burgers ($~8) looked good. Very local in ambiance and everyone is very friendly. Keep this in mind when you are just looking for something good to eat, with or without a beverage.
