Nice local bar with a good beer and swag selection. Right on the water and in the heart of Ketchikan! Indoor and outdoor seating and the themed bears are hysterical! We would definitely go back!

The oldest bar in Ketchikan! Est. in 1937. We are a waterfront bar with a covered deck for an outdoor experience. We have 19 draft beers on tap and the best bloody Mary's in Alaska! We are locally owned and operated. Come down and meet Paula who has owned the bar for the last 22 years. She's a hoot!
