Alaska

I grew up coming here every summer to visit my grandparents. I love how wild it is, the fresh air, and the adventure.

what to eat

  • Wild Scoops Ice Cream

    The best ice cream in town with classic Alaskan flavors like Fireweed.

  • The Bridge

    Come here for a classy dinner! The restaurant gets its name because it crosses the river.

  • 49th State Brewing

    On a sunny day, go to the top deck and look at the view of the town and the water.

  • Kaladi Brothers

    This is the main coffee spot in Alaska. Everyone sells it, but its made best when you get it from their own coffee shops.

  • Fire Island Rustic Bakery

    Homebaked delicious treats and breads and famous for their cookies. I especially love their blackberry cupcake and raspberry lemon scone.

  • Arctic Road Runner

    Coming here is an annual tradition and a local secret. You can sit outside by the river while you enjoy your halibut burger and blackberry milkshake.
