Griz Bar

Great local liquor served by friendly faces. Good times. The taco truck next door has the best nachos - open @ 11am. So good. Great view of the mountains too.

If I owned a bar, Griz Bar would be it! What an awesome place. View? Spectacular. Open Fire Pits to enjoy the Alaskan Arctic Chill? Spot On. Fantastic Beers On Tap? Check. But, for my money– I am all about two things: Cocktails and Service. Cocktails? Mastered. I enjoyed a bourbon beverage made from Boatwright Bourbon–which is made by hand, right here in southeast Alaska. (Plus, the packaging is super cool!). The entire experience was a love letter from Alaska. The bartender, Dida, was professional, knowledgeable and made me feel at home. I loved it so much that I brought my boyfriend back later in the week–to a repeat of the same stellar service and fantastic hot toddy–thank you Justin! Additionally, the taco truck next door ROCKS! Looking forward to visiting this open air bar, when the snow has gone and the sun has come!

Great little place to have a drink and just get a great vibe from the city. Our bartender looked like Ferris Bueller and was very friendly. Good times all around.
