    Carnivore Omelette with biscuit and crispy hashbrowns

    Thankful for a full belly from the Nugget at the Sitka airport after being turned away from brekkie at Mean Queen at 11:25am on a Saturday. The Nugget was out of chicken fried steak so ordered the corned beef hash, sub fries, biscuit, and side of gravy. Companion had a meaty omelette with biscuit and $1 upgrade to crispy hash browns. Crispy biscuits were actually super tasty dipped into the gravy, corned beef hash cooked to crispy perfection, gravy had decent flavor, over hard eggs were delicious, and omelette wasn't over cooked or brown. They've got breakfast down. Brought our own coffees from Highliner and they didn't bat an eye. Loved our server, he was so kind and apologetic regarding being out of the steak, it being busy, and I guess we got the last two biscuits in the house!

    Omelet with salsa & toast!

    Located inside the sitka airport, is a great place to have breakfast or brunch when you have a layover. Service was decent, food arrived fast and fresh. Omelet was good, toast was alright. Prices are pretty decent for airport! Overall no complaints!

    Chocolate chip pancakes, very mediocre, didn't ask for whipped cream, but got it anyway... I'll take it I guess

    Lots of expectations coming in to here. I was really looking forward to huge portions and good food, but was let down multiple times by lazy workers and a bad meal. Every time I go here the place is absolutely packed, filled with sports teams and adults. Our service was pretty bad, but the prices were cheap. My group ordered Shrimp cocktail, pancakes, and more, but we all got pancakes, must of been a miscommunication, because only 1 of us ordered pancakes. Our waiter barely spoke to us, usually bringing the wrong food/drink, but still had the audacity to ask for a tip. The prawn basket (also the wrong order), had 4 farm fished prawns in it, and had more butter than I could handle. The pancakes however, were very big, uncooked on the inside and burnt on the outside. The only thing here that was good was the milk, it tastes straight from the cow. I am honestly very frustrated with The Nugget, but I guess this is what you can expect for such a cheap price, as of for now, I'll stick to pop tarts.

    Classic Sitka diner that just happens to be in the airport. Food is good most of the time, pies are well known (wish they would make sure they are golden brown and not falling apart). The nugget burger is a monster of a burger, usually a go-to for me. Sometime speed is an issue here, workers are usually really nice.

    Great seafood. Love the fish and chips. We always eat there before we fly out of the Sitka Airport.

    This is the restaurant at the airport in Sitka. Nice menu, great breakfast and reasonable prices. Can't beat that combination.

Definitely recommend the avocado toast (pickled onion x sea salt combo goes crazy)! We visited like 3 mornings in a row, I think. Really big portions!

The kind of love that envelops you when you walk into a room, instantly making you feel welcome. That is the kind of magic that simple ingredients in the hands of those who actually care can have. Ma chère amie, please do not imagine that the menu is limited only to old-world gluten heaven. No. The magic extends to those who cannot partake. However, you must peruse that menu at your own leisure. For me, as I can happily partake in such hedonistic gluten, I had a special of turkey, pesto, avocado, and the ooziest, creamiest, most decadent cheese that, alas, I do not recall the name of. But the real superstar, nay, the Josephine Baker of pastries was a pistachio bun (?!?). This was heaven paired perfectly with strong coffee. I may add, it was the only good coffee I had in Alaska. One would expect this in Paris, in a small shop run by a husband and wife with an oven that has been lit for maybe a 100 years. But to stumble into this slice of heaven, accidentally. Divine. 10 out of 10, would recommend.

    Ludvigs is seriously some of the best chowder I have had in Sitka…read more I appreciate the chunky and meaty texture that hits the spot any time of the day! The soup itself is not too thick- and pairs well with the delicious bread it is served with. We also shared their prosciutto sandwhich - which was equally delightful and another "must try" when visiting. Lastly- its a good idea to try whatever desserts they have that day. We split their apple turnover and it did not disappoint! We wound up purchasing another to take back to the hotel. There is casual seating inside for perhaps 12 or so, while outside you can enjoy eating your food near the water. Ludvigs is truly a gem! From their delicious food to their warm and friendly service, I will definitely return the next time I am in Sitka. Thank you Ludvigs!

It's located at the gift shop next door to the Sitka Sound Science Center. It's where you can sit down and soak in the view of Sage Beach. It's where many people go to climb on the rocks and look for sea life that has washed ashore. It's amusing to watch them. You may even see Bald Eagles fly by looking for fish. We did. There was a line, but everyone was served quickly. The menu is very simple. The chowder with spicy chorizo is the star. We both decided to get the lunch special. I should have ordered a cup instead of a bowl. This chowder is very hardy. There's a lot going on in terms of flavor. It's very meaty. Hubby asked for hot sauce. She told him that he's not going to need it. He was initially taken aback by this response and refusal to give him any. He totally understood after tasting it, and he even ended up agreeing with her. We totally devoured it. The baguette sandwich was also quite delicious. My husband had some sort of sandwich with pepperoni because he doesn't like prosciutto. He said it was okay. I didn't try it because my baguette sandwich was huge. I couldn't finish it. My advice is to get a cup of chowder and split the sandwich if your significant other likes prosciutto. The price is high for what it is. It's like that everywhere in Alaska due to the cost of transportation. There's limited seating inside, but it's somewhat easy to find a spot if it's not too busy. There are benches outside as well. I would definitely return if ever in the area. It was a great pick-me-up, and very conveniently located on the waterfront trail through Sitka.
