The 26 best places to go out in Seward

I've been to the Alaska SeaLife Center multiple times over the years and each time it never fails to impress. There is much to explore and learn here. Exhibits teach about impact of environmental changes on Ressurection Bay's wildlife, the life cycle of sea bird species, and how research is conducted to better understand this region Sea anemone, starfish, Puffins and Sellar Sea Lions (among dozens of other species) live in this sanctuary; it is incredible to watch and interact with them, to gain a new appreciation for Alaska and its beautiful denizens. The center also has a veterinarian/wildlife response team that cares for injured animals and tells their story. For a small town like Seward, the SeaLife Center punches well above its weight and is well worth a visit

You can see almost all kinds of Alaskan sea wildlife there, in something close to their natural habitat. Check out the pictures to see what you can find there. This place is perfect for anyone who wasn’t lucky enough to spot some of these animals in the wild. I especially loved seeing the puffins — they are such lovely birds.

This was a fun way to spend about 90 minutes of our day! We went in the afternoon around 4pm when it was much less busy than earlier in the day. What was great about going at this time is that at 5pm we got to see the puffins being fed! This was awesome especially because this was one of the animals we were most excited to see. We were told the lower underwater viewing of the feeding was the place to be. It didn't disappoint because we got to see lots of puffin action when they would dive for their food. Overall, a great way to spend some time in Seward. Very well put together SeaLife Center!

This is a small sea life center but it is full of great information on the sea life in the area. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable. We enjoyed walking around and seeing the sea life that was available. You start upstairs and work your way downstairs. There is a small coffee/snack area and a nice gift shop. We spent probably 2 hours inside. They have parking available for RVs, vehicles and handicap.

The SeaLife Center was so much fun. I hadn't been in years and even going without kids, I spent two hours there. So much cool sea creatures to see. From seabirds to fish to octopus to big sea lions, I was thoroughly entertained. The docent near the seals was very knowledgeable and full of great information. There was even a touch tank to gentle brush upon sea urchins and starfish. It's definitely worth a trip here when you're in Seward.

Wow I was impressed with this SeaLife Center! On the smaller size but you can easily spend 1-2 hours here given all of the k informational signs, animals to view and the interactive touch tanks. Our family really enjoyed the touch tanks and learning not only about the animals but Seward.

Absolutely spectacular!!! It was a bit crowded when we visited, but the tickets were timed so I imagine that helps with the crowd. We saw so many incredible creatures and learned a lot. We found the staff friendly and knowledgeable. They loved sharing facts about the animals in their care.

Absolutely adore this coffee shop that was recommended to us on our trip to Seward. This place has such a cool vibe. Super welcoming to all. Low key. Fantastic coffee and fresh pastries. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Alaska and would love to rent the parsonage on the property.

Neatest coffee house I’ve ever been to. Everything is made fresh and priced reasonably well. Local artists have pieces for sale that you can browse through. People that work there are very personable and friendly. Can tell they take pride in their small town. Definitely will be going back. Cozy atmosphere.

Sadly we weren't able to experience the coffee of this rad place, but I still wanted to take the time to recommend because they still deserve it. The line from the start was OUT THE DOOR on a Saturday morning in Seward, but my fiancé and I were able to tuck away in the upstairs loft area and take in the space. It is so unique! I might not have had a cup of coffee in my hand, but I know it would have been exceptional matching the environment. One other thing I noticed is that there is a separate line for the locals of Seward, and the coffeehouses appreciation to their business throughout the cold winters. Such a great concept. If you're in Seward, make a stop here, and drink a cappuccino in my honor :)

The coolest atmosphere! It's an old church converted into a coffee shop. There is lots of lovely art from local artists- and available for purchase! There is also an upstairs where you can sit on couches and chairs- it has a "Friends" coffee shop feel. Definitely worth a stop in!

Such a cute and cozy coffee shop! We looked around at the art for quite a while, enjoyed coffee, and yummy baked goods. Highly recommend the jalapeño bagel bombs!

Alaska has such wonderful coffee spots and this is truly a gem! Should be a must visit on a visit to Seward. I tried their Dubai chocolate special latte and it was so good. The vibe of this place is great and if you get a seat in the loft with that big window then nothing like it!

This was a great place - got my latte here which was good but we loved the vibe of this place. Lots of places to sit but we took a take out. I believe they repueposed an old church into this lovely place with great artwork all across the place. They had a community pay it forward board where you can pay for specific co.munity and support it.

We had an amazing time with the crew of Sunny Cove Kayaking and Seward Coastal charters. We did the boat/kayak tour to Holgate glacier which was nothing short of spectacular. Maggie and Amelia were fantastic kayak guides and Matthew was super knowledgeable about all of the wildlife we experienced along the way particularly the birds (definitely an enthusiast!) and our Captain, Brent had a super keen eye for spotting and finding amazing wildlife, including fin whales, porpoises, goats, humpbacks. This trip had it all. It was not a cheap excursion but I don’t know how you could pack much more awesome in a day

We did the Fox Island kayak adventure in June. Kayaking has always been a favorite excursion of ours whenever we travel and this trip was no exception. Our tour guides Drew and Maggie were fantastic and by kayaking it really allowed us to feel immersed in the beautiful Alaska scenery. Fox Island is a beautiful location that not many people get to visit so we felt special for having the opportunity to explore it's coasts. We saw harbor porpoise and even a puffin! Our only critique was the Resurrection Bay tour on the back half of the day. It was a bit too family friendly for the adventurous day we were looking to have. We would have much rather just have been brought straight back to Seward post kayaking, but not sure if that would be logistically possible. That said, they kayaking portion still made the whole day worth it.

I did the Tonsina Point kayak/hike tour. My guide was Drew & she was incredible! We had a great time on the water & on a little hike; saw lots of sea otters, river otters, salmon during their run, a porpoise, eagles; & we foraged for blueberries, salmon berries, and mushrooms!!!! She kept us warm and well nourished and was a delightful guide and pal. The day flew by too quickly. Thanks Drew!

My husband and I cannot recommend Sunny Cove enough! Especially our guide, Drew! We ended up essentially having a one-on-one experience kayaking around Fox Island because we were the only ones to sign up that day and we couldn’t have been partnered with a better guide around the island. For someone who has only been on the job for around 4 months, she was SO knowledgeable about all of the different wildlife in the bay and made sure to point out everything she could! We had an absolute blast just chatting it up with her as well, she’s just the sweetest! 10/10 would book with Sunny Cove again and cross our fingers that we got Drew again!

Amazing day with Zeke and Taylor on Glacier Kayak. Tour was awesome, we were so lucky with the weather and wildlife. Zeke and Taylor were both amazing. Shared lots of fun facts, full of energy, good vibes all around. Would highly recommend ❤️

We had a beautiful trip Kayaking in front of Holgate Glacier, and it was only possible because of the amazing crew! Our guide Zeke, Matt, and Captain Brent were knowledgable and dedicated, and made the entire experience one we will cherish forever. From welcoming us on board, showing us the beautiful landscapes and thrilling whales and other wildlife, to the well-equipped kayaks, and providing us snacks and lunch, everything was truly thought out and taken care of. They even went out of their way to help my husband surprise me for my birthday, and I am so glad to say I was able to celebrate my birthday in front of a glacier! This is a once in a lifetime experience, and the team at Sunny Cove Kayaking is who you want to go with for this adventure! Thank you to the entire team again!

Our Kayak adventure into Resurrection Bay was everything we hoped it would be. We had gorgeous weather and felt safe on the water from our two guides, Zeke and Sven. We saw some Sea Otters, a porpoise, birds, and glaciers! This tour was one of our highlights in Alaska, we highly recommend it!

Came here for beer and dinner. I really enjoyed the Milk Stout and my husband was delighted with his White Fang Hefe. We decided to split the Tuscan Raider pizza. He loved it and I enjoyed the pizza, but found it hard to enjoy it with the burnt marks, but not really burnt marks? It was like black smoke dust on it. I would rip off the pieces and give it to my husband because it would just ruin the taste for me. The waitress was awesome, though. Amazing memory, checked on us, and was on top of it!

I came here yesterday for dinner with my husband and in laws. It was nice that we could get a table right away without a reservation. There weren’t many food items on the menu. My father-in-law got a glass of beer that smelled like fruit punch; I don’t remember what it was called lol but he loved it (he even bought the store souvenir glasses). We got pretzels and cheese fries as starters. The cheese fries were on the special menu. You have to scan the qr code on the menu to see it. They were good—not outstanding but good. I went with the Bao Down as an entree. The buns were soft. The fish was nice, not fishy at all. The others got pizzas. I didn’t try theirs but they seemed to enjoy it.

Great food with vegan and vegetarian options available too! Super friendly staff Worth a visit if you're in Seward

So walked in without reservations, with a large group. They very professionally got us a table and the service was top notch. Food is very good, beer is very good. It is worth a meal or two if you are in Seward.

I’m a little indifferent about this place. When I go out to eat, I generally expect to be impressed or just feel at least somewhat satisfied. We came to this place looking for the fish tacos that everyone had been posting about in the reviews, but arrived to see that they had changed the menu to be more of an Asian fusion and then there was also ‘gourmet’ wood fired pizza. I ordered the mango cider, and this was the only thing that impressed me from what we ordered on the menu. For an appetizer we had the loaded homies, and the Gorgonzola really ruined the flavor. It’s all we could taste. For an entree we shared the dad’s micro dosing pizza which, reading the ingredients, sounded amazing. But tasting it, it was just so plain. It’s missing the ‘wow’ factor that I really thought that these ingredients could deliver. Our server was very kind and attentive, so I greatly appreciate her for that. The food was just really lacking for us and made us disappointed to have spent our money here as the first dining experience for us in Alaska.

NOTE: They are currently closed for the season. They will be reopening in May 2023. Seward Brewing Company has to be probably my second favorite restaurant in town. We got food from quite a few places in Seward when we were in town back in June 2022, but SBC is probably my second favorite out of all the ones we tried. The overall vibe of the restaurant is gorgeous and modern. 2 floors of seating so they can accommodate a lot of people. The service was super friendly! Our waitress was very attentive to us, gave great menu suggestions since we were new people to town, and had a great attitude! As for the food, I got the Regular Rudy pizza and it was amazing! The crust is crispy and the toppings are crazy hot and fresh! Overall, if you ever make it out to Seward in the summer time, hit up this place! Great food, service, and beer lists! I’ll definitely come back here the next time I make it out to Alaska.

Seated our group of 8 quickly. Good beer selection on tap. Food was good, not great, but still a good option when seeking an alternative to high-end seafood while in Seward. My pizza came out well, but saw a few with a little more char on the crust than I care for.

Well worth the price and wait time. About $40 per person and 30 minute wait time. Their dishes are packed with seafood. Every single menu we ordered had so much seafood that it was so flavorful and protein rich. The salmon dip is a must-try, where the salmon dip and the cucumber combination is extraordinary.

This place is the top restaurant in Alaska! The menu is so balanced, tasty and not heavy for your stomach. You can see that the chef spend time to build the menu, spend time on every dish presentation. It has interesting positions, and my top is fish (both types), oysters and the deserts. This is the first place, where I got back twice during the trip. I think they are always fully occupied and there is no option to reserve a table in advance. I would highly recommend to come 10-15 minutes before they are opening and you will have a high chance to get a table without a wait

We spent four nights in Seward and, by far, The Cookery was the best restaurant we visited. If you’re looking for the freshest seafood Steward has to offer, cooked perfectly, then this place is a must. We started with the shrimp cocktail and the seafood chowder. For our main course, we opted for the fish of the day, which was salmon, of course. To cleanse our palates, we ended the meal with a shared dessert of Chocolate Coconut Sorbet.

Best restaurant in Seward by far. Enjoyed every dish we had. Went back for two nights! High quality ingredients, good preparation, unique and interesting recipes. Our server, Brandon, was friendly, efficient and attentive -couldn’t ask for better service. Nice contemporary space with a classy, relaxed vibe. A much-needed reprieve from the old-timey diner/grungy woodsy vibe at other restaurants in town. Prices are in line with other sit-down restaurants in town, but with much better food and ambience. Note that they don’t do online/advance reservations. That has its downsides, but it does allow for a much wider range of people to try their cooking. So factor in wait times if you don’t arrive by 5/5:30 PM. Their system for walk-up reservations was very efficient; you could track how many parties were ahead of you. Highly, highly recommend!

This was our favorite meal during our Alaska trip. The oysters were very fresh and naturally sweet, and the seafood dishes were all well-prepared. They have a fresh catch menu. The halibut we had was also nicely cooked and paired with sauces/other ingredients that were more thoughtful than other places. Overall, a very good dining experience and much better than some of the popular spots we tried in Anchorage like Glacier Brewhouse and Kincaid Grill.

Had a lovely dinner here with good service. A bit overpriced for its quality, which is expected of Seward. The oysters and spot shrimps were super fresh and delicious. The cream cheese ice cream was good as well. The (free) amuse bouche was very underwhelming. Not a fan of the shrimp n grits—shrimps and sauce were great, but the combination of grits and nuts did not work for me. Also tried the strawberry nojito, which will be a skip for me. If I go again, I’d order exclusively from the appetizers/seafood list and the fresh sheet Note that this place is extremely popular and does not take reservations. Tried to go right when they open and leave your name on the waitlist

We just finished our dinner at The Cookery, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Good food, excellent service and an overall great vibe! Our server was very warm and patient, while being very prompt with our food. Dishes were well put together and paired well with our drinks. We definitely recommend this place, as a great way to end a beautiful day in Seward, and further adding to your memories.

Resurrection Roadhouse is a conveniently located restaurant within the Windsong Lodge area. The menu is somewhat limited for lunch and dinner, but the food was delicious! There is also a wonderful menu of drinks. We had a delicious dinner with very tasty dessert. The waiter staff is friendly and service is very prompt. The cherry on the top is spectacular view of the snow capped mountains! If it is warm enough, I would definitely recommend sitting at the outdoor patio!

Our server did his best to give us a good experience, but there was a massive delay from the kitchen. We arrived for an early dinner at five thirty p m., successfully ordered starters, and then proceeded to wait. As the tables around us filled in with newly arriving guests who also ordered, received their food, sat around for a while, ordered dessert, received their dessert, paid their checks, and left, we continue to wait for our entrees. The server professionally and apologetically came by every ten minutes or so to either profusely apologize for the delay and assure us that our food was being plated and should be out within minutes. 90 minutes after ordering, our entrees came out, and the surf and turf was stone cold. I hated to send it back because I would actually wanted to eat dinner sometime before breakfast, but I didn't feel like eating cold grilled meat with congealed mushroom and onion glaze. Another 30 minutes later, I finally received my food, long after the other members of my family had finished their meals. Sadly, we observed the same occurrence happening to another couple with a child seated at the table next to us and saw our poor server making the rounds to apologize to other tables nearby. Meanwhile, the additional condiments that my family members who did receive hot food had requested never arrived. Aside from that, if all you want is ice water, they have a plentiful, delicious supply of it, and the refills are very prompt and timely. The bread starter was a non-starter, and the halibut and chips had potential but when it arrived it looked like about half of the portion was missing.

Overall, this is a great restaurant, but it’s a bit pricey. We had to wait 40 min for a table of 6 and then 64 min to get our food. I wasn’t impressed by that but the food was really good.

Food was good but the views are spectacular. Good selection of AK beers. Prices are less than comparable restaurants in town and the food reflects that, but not in a bad way. Good value for money, excellent staff and the views are awesome.

This restaurant has the potential to be one of the best in town. Its quiet location, appealing ambiance, and excellent views provide a great foundation. Unfortunately, a lack of consistency and what appears to be a deceptive fee structure are significantly holding it back. The primary issue is a persistent inconsistency in service and food preparation. Small but critical details are frequently missed, including incorrect salad dressings, failure to accommodate cheese preferences, and serving food at the wrong temperature. These errors, combined with discrepancies between menu prices and the final bill, suggest a lack of attention to detail that is unacceptable for a fine dining establishment. A recent experience also raised concerns about a hidden charge. I was charged a "remote destination fee," which the server vaguely explained as being related to trucking in supplies. When I identified myself as a local, I was treated with suspicion, giving me the impression that this fee is a way to unfairly charge tourists. This practice is particularly disappointing given the amount of business I have personally directed to the restaurant through my work in the local tourism industry. A high-end restaurant cannot afford to get the details wrong, tack on hidden fees, and expect to succeed long-term. I hope management addresses these issues to ensure the restaurant lives up to its full potential and maintains a positive reputation within the community.

Get the seafood Chowder. It's the best! Skip everything else The grilled beef skewers were too salty The wagyu burger tasted so bland.

Wonderful restaurant with some outstanding service. They had a decent non-alcoholic menu, and a truly extensive beer and wine list. The crab cakes were spectacular (and gluten free!), and I don't think I've ever had such fresh, crispy (yet still oh-so-soft) halibut. Truly delightful.

This information and visitor center for the national park is located in the heart of the town amidst all the day cruise companies. It’s easily accessible and has about two rangers helping out with the maps and other purchases. They have interactive exhibits displaying information about the history of various glaciers, people living in the fjords, and more. Can easily spend an hour there. Amelia at the front desk gave us more information about the trails available around the park. Definitely recommend it.

Visitors center was a good source for information. We stopped in for some tour information and came away with alot more. They were friendly and helpful with information. They helped us locate a great place to say for the few days we stayed in Seward.

This was an amazing time and worth every penny! Ordering tickets online was easy and the staff and Captin greeted everyone as they boarded the boat and left the boat. You can tell they love their job. The captain was very knowledgeable and active in pointing out and showing us all the wildlife and landmarks possible. The food was very delicious. The boat was very clean and maintained. Heated cabins with a view and open decks allow you to move all over the deck to catch the best views. The crew and Captain interacted with us alot and were energetic to make us feel welcome. I can't wait to take my whole family next year!

This is a small visitor center that sits in town along the marina. They have some videos that run about every 30 minutes. Very informative. There is a small gift shop as well.

Beautiful views and thoughtfully curated park experience. Lots of useful signs to explain how glaciers are formed and how climate change has caused them to recede dramatically in last 150 years. Trails are very well maintained and sign-posted. Must visit for kids of all ages. I ❤️ our Park Service & Rangers!

Different from other visitors center this one is located in the small harbor of the town seward. So plenty of options to get food or drinks or a tour nearby.

A beautiful visitor center. I recommend watching the movie. Staff is helpful and friendly. There are many options on seeing g glaciers, wildlife, and the Harding Ice Sheet.

fun place to chill. definitely an old building and it smells musty when you first walk in but you get used to it. apparently the story behind the dollars is sailors would want to reserve money for drinks when they got back into port and would post money aside with their names. now it’s just a silly tradition! they will give you markers if you want to put a dollar up.

We arrived in town and some time to kill before checking into our Airbnb. The Seward Brewery does not open till 5. Yukon was pretty packed and only 1 bar tender but all in all it was a cool place to hang and people watch. Draft beer and shot if Crown $15.

The bartender there is very rude. Better go to bar which is next to it they are so welcoming and service is good too..

I had a great time at the Thursday night dance party with DJ Waitwat!! So much fun and the drinks are good too!

The Yukon Bar is Seward's local dive bar. There were a lot of locals - some colorful characters, all were nice to us tourists. We're glad to have stopped here because we had a great time. My drink (old fashion) was pretty bad, but the atmosphere was so fun. There is one pool table, a juke box, live music, a ceiling full of dollar bills from past visitors, a very eclectic collection of odds and ends that decorate the bar, offensive bathroom graffiti, and a small but cute highlight - a quarter-collecting panda that sits at the bar. I recommend stopping by if you are in town and dive-bars are your thing.

Tosh is an excellent bartender—she's incredibly friendly and enjoyable to be around. The ambiance is charmingly rustic, and the drinks are, as expected, superb. I highly recommend it!

Quite possibly the worst cocktail waitress of all time. We were there on July 3rd, they had only two employees working and the waitress ignored us. Did not bring us any drinks. And moved incredibly slow. So slow, that we found it so annoying, that we left. It’s a cool Alaskan bar but AWFUL service. Would never go back

WOW! We were so pleased with our experience! We had 9:30p reservations & we were not rushed at all! The menu offered a great selection along with the daily specials. We liked the suggested wine pairing. Justin H. was very attentive & professional. The seafood was fresh & cooked perfectly. We enjoyed the chocolate cake to go-don’t skip this!

While on an Anchorage tour, a couple recommended Ray's as a good place to eat in Seward. They were not wrong. My husband and I shared oysters, seafood chowder and fish with chips. Everything was delicious and tasted so fresh. Stan, our server, was professional and friendly. He provided excellent service. Atmosphere was very pleasant. Music was just the right level so talking was very easy. And the view is incredible.

Stopped by for a large family style meal with friends. We tried many items across the menu, as well as the suggested wine pairing — everything was super delicious. We stopped in around dinner time with no reservation, and as a group of 5 we were seated in one of the best seats in the house immediately. Service was fantastic, and the whole group regarded this meal as one of the best we had in AK. I will be back given the opportunity!

We got a great booth overlooking the water and had a wonderful time!! If you are visiting Seward you should come here. HOWEVER…if you ARE NOT in a hurry, you need to intentionally order slowly because the food comes out fast. So if you’re trying to relax just order a couple things at a time and do not put in your order all at once. We ordered slowly and they didn’t rush us and we had a great time! We had lots of wine and super yummy seafood. The staff was friendly and we would def go back!

Great experience at the restaurant. Food was great, but perhaps some plating would be an elevation to the experience. Most fish come with an Asian-infused style of cooking which was really refreshing and surprising to us! Server and ambience is great nonetheless, definitely a recommended place in Seward !

We were hesitant to go based on the mixed reviews but ended up with great food. Food in Alaska is expensive, but this was by far our most expensive meal of the trip. The food was good but the presentation/plating was very sloppy. Sablefish was outstanding. A tiny basket of bread came before the meal and we were told if we wanted more it would cost $6, go the price of the meals more bread should be included. Service was lackluster.

Excellent seafood and very kind wait staff. The drinks were all excellent, we enjoyed the Miso Sablefish and Chowder the most. The fisherman’s stew and ultimate seafood linguine were also excellent. The restaurant was not overly loud, it was easy to talk to everyone at the table. The views from the restaurant were excellent and it was easy to access downtown. The waiter made good recommendations for our food and also helped advise on what to do while we were in town.

Fantastic place to take the family out for a day on the water.

The harbour is well located on the main Seward street, however, it doesn't have a good arrangement for people standing in queue and you will get drenched in rain while waiting to board the cruise. Carry an umbrella and it will definitely be of help. The place itself is very scenic and beautiful, so a must visit!

Port Harbor in Alaska is a stunning spot, surrounded by mountains that seem to hover over the water. The cruise ship anchored in the distance added a majestic touch. We even spotted a sea otter right at the port. Truly a beautiful and memorable location.

Very nice place with all kinds of restaurants and little shops! Best shop is a family owned business Lighthouse gifts! Best prices!! And loved this memorial to those who died in the 1964 earthquake.

Lots of resturants, hotels and places to pickup souvenirs

If you're looking to launch your boat or watch some wildlife then the Seward Boat Harbor is a great place to visit. The Seward Boat Harbor is a great place to launch a boat or even a kayak. The boat launch is located near the Kenai Fjords National Park Visitor Center on 4th Street and the kayak launch is located at the Northeast corner of the Seward Boat Harbor. Parking is a pain, so you will need some coins or a credit card to pay for time. The Seward Boat Harbor is home to wildlife including sea otters. If the sun is bright you can see fry swimming in gigantic numbers below the catwalks. Occasionally a bald eagle will sit on a tall light pole looking for fish too. The Seward Boat Harbor is a great resource, but the sad reality is the expansion many years ago removed a significant amount of beach. The beach was a great place to snag King Salmon. While the fishing near the Seward Boat Harbor isn't the same the expansion did modernize and expand the Seward Boat Harbor capacity.

The color of the water here is so beautiful! Try to plan your visit on a sunny day, you won't regret it!

Had such a good experience here that I had dinner twice here while staying in Steward! No wait to sit down, and attentive wait staff made for a good dinner. The Tuscan Salmon was amazing! The portions were generous and the flavors were wonderful! I highly recommend Gold Rush Bistro!!!!

Wonderful staff. Tasty food that also looks delicious. Fun restaurant/wood cabin vibe. The food here, although a little more expensive than other options, was very good and presented well on the plate. We were not disappointed at all. We had some desserts that came in larger quantities than expected, but that was a welcome thing! We were some of the last guests in the restaurant and we weren't made to rush or anything. The staff were very nice and easy to talk to. They gave us some recommendations on some good local shops to visit. A very fun place to eat, excellent fish dishes!

Such a great place! Small, but great atmosphere. We came in as a party of 5 close to closing. We asked if they could seat us. We waited about 15 minutes for another party to finish up, and were seated and served. The Tuscan Salmon was some of the best I’ve ever had! Fantastic char, and seasoning with the rice. Didn’t need anything else. Would highly recommend and these folks are trying to earn business.

Man, I really don't like giving low ratings, but the Pasta Alla Salmone that my husband and I had were so bland. Not only that, but the bell peppers weren't cooked long enough. We had to ask for salt and pepper and add it to every bite to make it taste better. Cute place, nice service, but not for me. And the water tasted weird to me.

Great place for a reasonably priced seafood dinner in Seward. Family owned and family run business that uses local ingredients. Very professional with simple yet elegant dishes. If you are looking for a drink with your meal, be advised that they don’t serve alcohol, but that did not inhibit the experience for us

The Gold Rush Bistro halibut fish and chips, chowder, and salad was my top meal during my trip! It was all very fresh and well seasoned with very generous portions. I’ll be thinking about that meal for a long time!

Food a little dry and bland but the wait staff were very helpful in getting hot sauce and lemon. Nice Italian soda, liked the vibe here too.

We were pleasantly surprised to find so many vegetarian options at Woody Thai Kitchen in Seward — and even more surprised by how amazing everything tasted! We ordered the Panga Curry, Pineapple Fried Rice, and kids’ noodles, and every dish was packed with flavor and clearly made with care. The taste was far above average — absolutely delicious 🤤. Prices seemed a bit high at first, but the portions are huge, so it’s actually great value. No wonder this place is so popular — it totally deserves the hype! A must-visit for Thai food lovers, especially if you’re vegetarian

Good Thai food. Portions are larger sized but apt for the high prices. Service was good, friendly but slow. It took us close to an hour to get our food, although there wasn’t any wait time to get a table. They had a separate vegan menu, which was nice to see. Would recommend this place while you are here in Seward and craving some delicious food!

Really tasty Thai cuisine! I got the chicken pad thai and appreciated that I could customize the spiciness level (I got level 5- the most spicy). The food has a nice kick and the portion size was large. Perfect for anyone who is looking for a big meal to fill up on after a long day of activity. I'd happily come back and it's definitely worth a try if you are craving Thai!

Our Airbnb host recommended Woody’s. It was excellent! Portions are large and more than enough for a couple to share (if you can agree on a menu item;-) ). Was a busy time but the staff and kitchen staff were extremely efficient and we received or order in a timely matter. We definitely recommend!

The atmosphere was very nice. The spring rolls were tasty and crunchy. However, make sure to check if dishes are spicy before you order. Many of the dishes are quite spicy or sweet. Pretty good overall though.

I’ve been to this Thai restaurant in Seward twice now, and both times it was packed, which says a lot! It’s clearly a local favorite, and for good reason. I tried both the Panang and Red Curries, and they were absolutely fantastic. I like a good kick, so I went with spice level 4, and it hit the perfect balance—hot enough to satisfy but not overwhelming. The Drunken Noodles were just as amazing—bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and cooked just right. What really stood out was how helpful the staff were. They made great recommendations and took time to explain the dishes and spice levels. That kind of service goes a long way, especially in a busy spot. On top of that, the prices were very fair—something that’s hard to come by in Seward, where restaurants are usually pretty expensive. Highly recommend if you’re looking for flavorful, authentic Thai food with great service and solid value.

One of the best restaurants in Seward. Great for a group setting or intimate dinner. Cute ambiance and art. Amy Winehouse was playing over the speakers. Appreciate they have vegan & vegetarian options. Portions are HUGE. Quality, great tasting Thai!

This is a very cozy and inviting place! Food was great. Cocktails were creative and delicious. We went around 8pm and had about 20min wait, which was not bad. A talented local artist was performing there. The volume was just right. We were able to enjoy the music and had conversations at the same time. A must stop when visiting Seward!

Here in Seward AK, the other restaurants are overpriced tourists traps. This place is not! Fabulous brews, outstanding food and good service in a very cool nautical/ocean theme with very reasonable prices for what you get. We will be back!

We had such a great time at Tidewater Taphouse! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The beer flight was a great way to sample local brews (highly recommend doing that!), and every pour was crisp and refreshing. What really stood out was the atmosphere: warm, welcoming, and laid-back, with friendly staff and a cozy vibe that made us want to stay longer. Whether you're coming off an excursion or just looking for a place to relax, Tidewater is a must-visit while in Seward. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town!

When you are near the end of the earth, in a remote town, surrounded by snow-capped mountain peaks and glaciers, you can't set a super high expectation for food and service. So when a local place delivers, over delivers even, it's a real treat. We were sat immediately at 7:15 on a Thursday evening. The service was on point, prompt, friendly and helpful. The setting is great with both indoor, outdoor, and loft seating. Last, and certainly not least, the food shined. Everything was delicious and they had some creative options. We aren't drinkers and they even offered some delicious mocktails. Whenever I come back to Seward, I'm coming back here for sure!

Tidewater Taphouse in Seward was recommended to us by our tour guide and so glad we went. Long wait to get a table which is always a good sign, but was lucky to snag two seats upstairs at the bar. Bartender was very friendly and the burger and tots were very good!!! Nice place!!!

Just stopped in to try some different beers. Beer selection was great and the tot appetizer was a perfect match for the beer. We didn’t order any other food, but we got a look at the desserts, which looked delicious. Also, there’s a great, dog friendly patio in back!! Service was good and friendly!

We didn't have any food and only stopped in for a drink. The view of the Seward Harbor from the 2nd Floor bar is awesome! 5 star views and service for sure. Great octopus decor throughout! Great service! Great local beer and the offer flights! Worth a stop when in Seward.

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while, and I finally got a chance to go. The ordering process was super easy, and the wait staff was really friendly and helpful. Everything seemed to be set up for a great experience. The seating area is outside, under a building cover, so dress appropriately for weather. The tables and chairs were nice, though. The only downside was the food. It was really bland and didn’t have much flavor or taste. I even tried the BBQ sauce that they had on the table, but it tasted just as bland and watery. I ended up drowning it in hot sauce halfway through to at least have some flavor. I was honestly surprised, considering all the positive reviews I had read.

When you think Alaska port town you think seafood, but this is absolutely some of the best BBQ you will eat in the country. I grew up in CA and now live in FL. I judge a joint by it's smoked turkey and brisket. The turkey was so moist and flavorful tossed in the House made BBQ sauce. I wish it was sliced though. Didnt get brisket but they had BEEF RIBS smoked to perfection. Beans and Coleslaw were okay, Potato salad excellent.

We visited in mid-August. The outdoor setting was pleasant with nice weather. We ordered a plate of brisket and brisket in a loaded BBQ potato. The portions were a bit small for the price, but the food was tasty

This place has a great vibe. The owner is out and about the entire time making sure his guests are happy and fed. Gluten free food!!!! Owner told me everything is gluten free except the toast. Such a blessing for my allergy! The portions were very generous! The loaded baked potato was absolutely amazing. The potato salad is delicious! The bbq sauce was good but not exceptional. They also have heaters outside for the ones wimpy to cold like me since all searing is outdoors. The vibe in general helped make my review. Incredible vibe, incredible service great food. I highly suggest you all try Mad Jacks in Cloudcroft NM if you enjoy this place.

Treated ourselves to snow crab legs and they were the best price we found in town. Crab was amazing! The pork belly and brisket were also tasty. At one point they brought out extra ribs and passed some around to the customers so we got to try them. I think as far as the meat goes, the ribs were the best. Sides were ok but the main dishes more than made up for it. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here and service was great

The atmosphere feels very laid back and relaxed. The table seating is all outdoors, however, there are heaters so it is not chilly. The food was very tasty and the service was very quick. The food is also very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

We went here because Chat GPT told us this place had the best crab legs! Smoked crab legs cluster and a glass of beer was what we got! The chef gave us our crab but without any butter or sauce. We tried the meat nekkid and it really didn't need any saucin'. It was naturally salty and the smoke from the BBQ was chef's kiss. The owner and everyone working there were super kind and warm. Very happy with the food, service and vibes. They were busy! We highly recommend this place. One of the top 2 places to eat in Seward. (The other is Miller's Landing.) Wishing them continued success.

Very good tacos! My personal favorite are the Rock Fish, tacos with beans and rice. The carne asada tacos are pretty darn good as well. This is a small restaurant, but they have plenty of tables. The customer service is good and the food comes out pretty fast. One of my new favorite places to come for dinner when I’m working in Seward.

Awesome rockfish tacos! The best bang for your buck in Seward, super reasonably priced. Service was great and very fast order fulfillment! Tacos were so good we had to order more! They also have a cooler with cups for free water which was a nice touch. We didn’t check this place out until the last day of our trip, but if we had been there sooner we would have been back!

Had pescado (rockfish) burrito ($13), husband had pollo (chicken) burrito ($13), and we shared a carne asada (steak) taco ($4.50). All of it was delicious. The burritos are large. The taco is small so you will need a few of them to make a meal. They have a small area where you can choose your salsa. The mild was also delicious. I didn’t try the others. I gave four star for atmosphere only because of the death metal music.

EXCELLENT fish tacos, and the staff were very kind and quick and the music was super fun! they had delicious unique taco sauces too. seriously can’t recommend enough!!

At first, I thought the Tacos were a little overpriced. But man, they were fresh and damn good. You can tell this food isn't from the freezer! Only down side is you have to go to the pub to get a beer and there is extremely limited seating. They will call you through a window on the pub side if you want to hang out there and eat! I had the hot rod!

Oh this burrito was GOOD! I will be thinking about it for a while 🌯 seasoned to perfection, cheese melty and gooey, smoky and sweet elote, soft tortilla with a bit of chewyness.... literally nothing more I could want in a burrito, 10/10 would recommend

Quick service and good tasting good. The salsa bar had some very interesting options and they were super flavorful and spicy!

Not bad at all really. Had the fish burger and it was pretty good. Just a relaxed little place to grab a bit to eat. Prices are comparable to the rest of the places around the area

I’m not one for writing reviews especially bad reviews but this was quite the experience. Got lunch here today. When we first walked in we thought it looked like it used to be a really nice pizza place. You have to order before you sit down, the person at the register was really hard to understand. We went to sit down at a booth and the whole booth had not been cleaned, there was food all over the seats, we tried to find a clean seat and had to settle for one with food still, unsanitary. It should be cleaned in between each customer. Started on the food we got the fish and chips which looked like it was served on a small cookie sheet pan, the fries were bland had no seasonings and tasted like frozen fries. They don’t tell you how much fish comes with the meal, it was just two pieces, and the fish was raw in the center. Stopped eating right then. Service was just ok, they didn’t check in on us once while we were there. Don’t recommend this place at all, I wish I had read reviews before I ate here.

The people that work here are really nice and we're working so hard to do a good job. They were very confused and unorganized about the orders and where they are supposed to go. We had a party of 3 and our food all came at different times. The shrimp and pasta wasn't very flavorful, the grilled cheese with buffalo chicken was 2 slices of bread, a couple slices of unmelted cheese and a chicken tender tossed in the middle. It actually tasted good though. This place has a lot of potential and I would go back!!

Crab is the only reason patronize this establishment. The king crab legs are delectable. Other items? the fries are greasy and limp, the breading on the halibut is wimpy, tasteless, and slides off the fish, finally, the fish itself is standard issue frozen halibut.

Food was mediocre at best. Prices too high for the quality. No ketchup bottles, just packets which had ketchup on the outside of them. Gross. Bathrooms weren’t maintained. Would definitely try somewhere else.

I try the shrimp Diablo new item on the menu!! And was sooooo good!! Also different types of crab legs!! You guys should come and try... soooo good!!

Garlic butter shrimp potentially the worst thing I have ever had a restaurant. Service was so weird. Girl behind counter barely spoke. Had to ask her everything.

GF and I saw it from Rt 1 and said to ourselves "we gotta stop there." And we were not disappointed. The character of the place hits you on the face with 52 years of nostalgic local dive bar history. Kills me to know it's turning into a Mexican joint, such is life. I'm glad I got to see it when it was open.

My cousin hung out here and told me about his good times. He bugged me to come visit him in Alaska but life got in the way. He passed away unexpectedly and I never got to see Alaska from his eyes. I went two years later and was blown away by everything I saw. Would have been better to see it on two wheels with my cuz

There was some confusion when we rolled up at quarter of four: the website said it opened at 2; there was an LED sign blinking, "closed;" a placard set to "open;" an open hours sign indicating they open at 4. We pushed through and found a half mopped bar readyish for business. Friendly service, dive bar atmosphere, but the real winner was the barbecue. Half a pound of smoked pork at $14.99 was the closest we had to cheap eats in a town where a $13 cheeseburger is a bargain. It came with 4 tortillas, two portion cups of sauce and one of mustard, and while one ideally has some kind of vegetable with dinner, it was filling enough for two people and very good. No regrets.

We stayed a short distance away from Pit Bar while we were in Seward. Walked there a couple nights during our stay. Drinks were priced PHENOMENALLY and Mitch made me one of the best long islands I've ever had. Its open real late, they have outdoor seating area, a pool table, and shuffleboard. I wouldnt go to Seward without stopping here.

Perfect place for after hour drinks. This bar also offers and outside area. Big shout out to the staff and the owner. I left my card over night and they held on to it for me and were super friendly about it. Big thanks.

This place feels like home. I walked in and was immediately greeted with a big ole smile and welcome from Angel who is actually a real-life angel probably. It's also a liquor store which is convenient, also convenient is its location. Locals are waaaay too much fun, drinks are good and cheap. Ring the bell to buy a round for the locals y'all! I came up here in 2019 and got hitched, but also to try salmon vodka. Don't be put off, please go here and get a bloody Mary with salmon vodka, you won't regret it! I hope to return this summer! <3

Great place to have drinks, chill out and meet all kinds of people. The place (and the city) gets crowded during the cruise ships season. Alaska controls strongly the alcohol in open areas, so be careful if you are visiting the place and decide to take a drink outside of the bar...

It is absolutely amazing the amount of love and dedication this brewmaster puts in his product.

Excellent beer and a nice place for the locals that live in Stoney Creek and Bear Lake and for visitors alike. Cozy inside but with a welcoming environment, there are often food vendors set up outside to help pair delicious meals with the delicious beers on tap. Offers growlers or pints and usually has a variety of brews to choose from – from sours to fruity and everything in between. Go check it out!

Loved the IPA and the klosch. Wish the had an open tap room! I tried 5 different breweries in AK and this was my favorite by far!

Great! Good beer and unpretentious atmosphere. BYO-Food (recommend: Red‘s Burger around the corner) and a bunch of board games around. Would go again!

Glad to finally try some of Stoney Creek's brews. Well crafted, all-around solid beer. I'm looking forward to next time!

Greg is an amazing brewmaster, and a super friendly person, just like all the staff! The Squirrel’s Den Hazy IPA is the best IPA I have had in a 12 day tour of Alaskan brewery’s!!! A must stop in Seward! No food, but you are welcomed to bring food into this spacious brewery setting.

What a wonderful opportunity to have a GREAT beer at the Gateway Hotel in Seward!! After a long day of travel and activities, it was perfect just to relax at the hotel with a beer or a glass of wine. Thanks to the Stoney Creek brewery and the hotel for offering this! We will be back this evening after our cruise. 🐳 🦅

As good a Real Ale style beer as I have had outside of the UK. All enjoyable but my personal favourites are the dark ones - superb. Authentic English style community pub feel - excellent beer, games, everyone welcome, very chilled. Home from home

We stayed at Gateway Hotel in Seward to find each evening at 5pm Stoney Creek sets up shop and offers quality microbrew selections and root beer. Even popcorn for the kids along with branded gear for sale. Super friendly folks behind the brand and made each night even more fun after dinners. We would get some beers, get the Jenga board out and just have fun as a family. My favorite is the Saison since I'm into ambers. Highly recommended!

camping Oceanside, fire pits right on the boardwalk sites, flushies and showers. There were no doors on the washrooms which included the showers so not that secure. I stood outside the washroom entrance so my wife felt comfortable showering in that environment. Absolutely beautiful vistas and walking distance to downtown! We would stay here again for sure!!

Very nice boardwalk! Well maintained & accessible. Saw some sea lions. Nice and relaxing.

Great place for kids and dogs. Walk along the west shore of the Resurrection Bay all the way down to the Sea Life Aquarium.

Waterfront park is an absolute gem in the town of Seward, Alaska!. The park offers panoramic views of the surrounding water and snow capped mountains. Beauty beyond words. Definitely worth visiting

It's nice area to walk around, lots of boats, cruises, people cycling walking around, camping on the side, some people did picnics , chilled, flying drones,nice chilling place. Also public toilets are there, was clean on my visit. 4th July was beautiful fireworks 🎆 😍 I absolutely loved seeing it. The mountains ⛰️ around are absolutely stunning view !

While in Seward I had no car to get around. So Waterfront Park was a great walk to get to downtown. It's so beautiful and sometimes you can catch a whale in Resurrection Bay, Harbor seals, Sea Otters, Salmon in the stream, Eagles and some cool rock finds.

Great views, good parking and close to town

We had a great time. Daryl was our guide and was an enthusiastic ambassador for Alaska, Seward and mushing. We had a nice short ride with our 16 dog pack who were extremely anxious for us to get going. We then met the dogs and a young litter of pups. We were educated on mushing and the Ididerod. We then hiked out to Exit Glacier which was an easy hike for healthy legs and a beautiful sight to log into my memory cache.

Absolutely loved every second of this experience! The staff was incredible—so kind, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell the dogs are living their best lives—happy, healthy, and so excited to run and meet everyone! It’s not just a tour, it’s a full-on Alaskan adventure. From learning about the Iditarod legacy to riding with these amazing pups, it was unforgettable. Huge respect to the Seavey team for creating something so fun, educational, and full of heart. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Seward—this is a must-do!

We loved our experience at IdidaRide! Micah (not sure if I spelled that right) was an awesome musher- provided tons of knowledge and was very passionate about these dogs. They provided a video of us mushing AND a bunch of photos, which I loved. Plus the puppies!!!! They were only 3 days old and the cutest babies I’ve ever seen. All the dogs were such good boys and adorable. Very cool to learn about mushing!

Neat little experience just outside of Seward. I'd recommend this tour if you're interested in dog-sledding or the history of the Iditarod race. Tour includes a 1.25 miles ride on a wheeled cart through the forest. Our musher, Noah, was very helpful with any questions. Upon returning to the kennel we got to say hello to the dogs and even got to hold some puppies! The tour guide Caitlyn was really knowledgeable and showed us how the dogs and mushers and dressed during the race.

We visited Seavey's last week as part of our one week inland tour of Alaska. We learned a lot about the dogs and what it takes to get them ready for the Iditarod and how grueling that is for both the dogs and the musher. The dogs were so friendly and receptive to us strangers. Of course, we all loved holding the puppies too.

Fabulous tour! Learned a lot about the Iditarod Trail, sledding and especially the dogs!!! So glad we did this. Friendly, professional staff. Highly recommend!!

Phenomenal experience! They are so attentive and informative. It was so much fun riding the sleds and the kids loved the puppies! Highlight of our trip!

The fly-in fishing trip to Crescent Lake was definitely a highlight of our trip! The company was easy to work for, answered any questions I had. The pilot of the seaplane was amazing...even took us on a detour for better views of the mountains. Our fishing guide, Luke, was absolutely incredible. Super friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and made sure we had an amazing experience! We caught fish, saw bears, and enjoyed the amazing views. Worth every penny!

We did the ice climbing adventure which was very fun! Our guides Natalie and Collin were very knowledgeable and kind. However, make sure to dress warmly as it does get quite cold on the glacier. All in all, this was a great, memorable and family-friendly way to spend a day in Alaska, and we definitely recommend this tour to everyone!

We had an excellent rafting 3 hr experience down the Kenai River with Brandon. The weather cooperated with only a few sprinkles. He was so informative & fun to be with. We saw lots of Salmon swimming upstream. It was peaceful when we were in the calmer areas and fun & exilerating when we hit the class III waters. He was extremely knowledgeable and experienced in guiding. He nicely stressed the safety portion of this excursion for us. I could have rafted for hours more-I loved this adventure.

We had an amazing time ice hiking on Exit Glacier. Caroline and Natalie were knowledgeable and thoughtful guides who knew all the best places to go and enjoy the stunning beauty of this hike and the glacier. Highly recommend this unique experience.

What an amazing experience! The hike was challenging but very much worth the views and the opportunity to hike the glacier. My younger son who is autistic was not able to hike the glacier so the 2 of us had to separate from the group and stay behind. Dylan, one of our tour guides, stayed with us and made special accommodations for us to walk on the glacier and then took us on a short walk alongside the glacier to see the blue cave while waiting for the rest of the crew. I highly recommend Kenai Backcountry Adventures.

I definitely chose the right company for our hiking tour! Kenai Backcounty Adventures is 100% professional with everything - from the check-in, to the safety review to the hike itself. What an amazing day! My daughter and I are not regular hikers but wanted to get out and experience the Alaska nature safely. Lochlan was the guide assigned to us. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience! Lochlan made our day great… he’s patient and so smart about everything outdoors. We learned a lot during our 4-hour hike! Don’t just think about doing a tour with them- book it!

Derek was an awesome guide who really enjoys what he does! He was very kind and was more than happy to stop when anyone asked. He was also knowledgeable and dropped us off right at our bnb — it was an overall great experience! This is a must do, it is wonderful memory to have.

Nice little fall right at the end of the road in Seward. I believe there was some construction and cars were not allowed beyond this point. It is right on the road. There is

It was voluminous and wonderful waterfall right at the edge of the town. We spotted it from our cruise trip to the glacier. You can take your car right next to it. The water gushes down with force and it’s impossible to miss it. Check it out if you are in town.

Beautiful waterfall! It’s amazing to see the sheer force and volume of water cascading down from the mountains—truly astonishing.

Cool little urban waterfall. Even though its man-made, still impressive especially due to where its located

I guess we stumbled upon this one by accident we were driving down the road and noticed the waterfall coming out of the side of the mountain. So we took a minute to pull over take some pictures and enjoy the beauty of the site

Worth the quick stop! Just right along the roadside.

Fun waterfall to check out when in Seward! You can either drive here or take a walk to enjoy the beauty of this powerful waterfall!

We did the Aialik glacier landing flight and to echo what everyone else has said, it was truly one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I almost chickened out right before the flight, but I’m so glad I didn’t. I felt totally safe the entire time and I can’t imagine having missed out on this experience. Getting to chat with Joey and learning about the area from him was a treat - one of the many bonuses of supporting a local family business. If you can only do one adventure during your time in Seward, make it this one. (But if you can do more than one, do this and a kayaking trip to bear glacier with liquid adventures - it was so cool to see the glacier lagoon from both angles). I’d also recommend scheduling your flight early in your trip in case they need to reschedule due to weather (this happened with our flight which underscored their commitment to safety and we ended up flying on our last day in Seward). Book the flight and don’t look back!!! 100000% worth it

Joey was fantastic! My first time to Alaska and my first time in a Cessna and it did not disappoint! Joey and team were accommodating when scheduling our flight around other travel plans and day of was super smooth. Landing on a glacier was a wonderful experience but the real highlight was just enjoying the views during our flight and getting to hear about the Seward area and glaciers. I would highly recommend booking with this company- specifically the Aialik Glacier Scenic flight and Glacier Landing.

Absolutely stunning! We did the scenic ride with the bear glacier landing and it was breath taking. The pilot likely took our Christmas card photo! The plane is small but thanks to the incredible staff and pilot we felt safe the whole flight. We saw wildlife, the beautiful glacier, and all around Seward! We would recommend this trip again and again! A special shout out to Cessi the pre flight pup!

Awesome experience!! We did the Bear Glacier tour and had a great time. Joey is a really good pilot and got us right up close to the glacier, icebergs, and wildlife including mountain goats. Highly recommend!!

This flight tour is highly recommended! Joey is incredibly knowledgeable about the area and took us to see several glaciers, spot bears catching fish, and discover a stunning emerald-green lake. It was absolutely beautiful and an unforgettable experience.

This tour was top notch !! Joey runs a very updated skywagon taildragger that’s very dependable and super safe!! He’s done this so many times and it’s obvious when you’re cruising around as he knows all the cool routes in and around the canyons, passes and glaciers! We saw 3 separate glacier calvings and a grizzly eating salmon in a little creek!! You’ll have the time of your life!! Guaranteed!!!! Obviously as long as the weather cooperates!! Thanks a million Joey!!!

We had a great time! You get to see amazing views and land on the glacier - so cool. The pilot was super kind and we felt safe the whole time. Cessi was pretty cool too!

Unforgettable experience with some of Alaska’s most incredible wildlife! Our guide Anna and Captain Ryan were fantastic—they gave our family a memory we’ll treasure for a lifetime. We saw countless puffins on the way out and then had the surreal experience of kayaking beside a glacier. The grand finale? Watching humpback whales bubble-net feeding right in front of us. The included lunch was delicious, and the homemade brownies were a perfect touch. Don’t hesitate—book this tour now!

Our kayaking trip to Bear Glacier was AMAZING!! Our guides Kristen & Nora were so knowledgeable and kind. They took lots of pictures of us & even offered brownies and hot chocolate. We had plenty of time to kayak, take pictures, and take in the amazing views. Thank you liquid adventures for a great trip.

Liquid adventures was an incredible tour company. We'd rank the #1 activity to do in Seward, Alaska is the Bear Glacier Kayak Tour with Liquid Adventures. We were in a small, 6-person group that had the entire glacier and icebergs to ourselves. We felt like we were on a different planet! I don't know many places in the world where you can have such a unique experience in nature. Kristen, our guide, was patient, knowledgeable, and talented. One set of people in our group were not the strongest kayakers and she navigated the gaps in kayaking skill effortlessly. I would say it'd be helpful to have kayaked before if going on this trip. While it is not a requirement, it'd make it much more enjoyable. Overall, I cannot recommend the Bear Glacier Kayak Tour by Liquid Adventures more highly. A wonderful "must-do" activity!

Vacillating between a boat or kayak trip we opted for kayaking despite the overcast skies. In the end, we chose right. Given that September’s weather can be sketchy we didn’t want to make a reservation. Jaxson, our guide was friendly and low key. We took a boat to Bear glacier which took about 45 minutes. From there we geared up for paddling and were in the boats headed for the glacier. We paddled in and out of icebergs. Along the way, we saw porpoises, harbor seals, bald eagles, puffins and mountain goats. This is definitely a winner especially if you like being up close and personal with nature.

A MUST DO!!!! Absolutely loved it. My Dad, son and I did the Emerald Coast Trip. We were super lucky to have James as our guide, he was amazing. He taught us so much and was great with my son talking to him and answer every question. We had a porpoise swim up next to us!!! I can’t recommend Liquid Adventures enough. Also the boat ride out and back was great.

We had an unforgettable experience with Liquid Adventures on the 6-hour glacier kayaking trip! Our guide, Quinn, was fantastic—super personable, knowledgeable, and made sure we got the full experience, tailoring the pace to our group's skill. He answered all of our questions and shared his expertise and in all things glacier. The stunning scenery and smooth organization made this a truly special outing. Shoutout also to Captain Derek who is also very personable yet professional and highly skilled in navigating the boat. I would definitely recommend packing snacks & water (although no bathroom is available) and bringing sunglasses, hat with a brim (to keep rain out), a winter hat, and several layers for under the dry suit as it did get cold. Wool socks are definitely worth it! Highly recommend this tour if you're looking for an adventure that combines stunning nature with top-notch expertise.

We went on a liquid adventure Kayak tour in the Bear Glacier Lagoon. Our guide Sophia was amazing. She made sure that everyone was safe and brought out hot chocolate and brownies for everyone. Liquid adventure also had dry suits for everyone and I felt warm and dry the whole trip. Lastly, the tour boat captain James got us safely to the lagoon and back in the company jet boat. Would highly recommend!

What a great waterfall for a less than 3-minute hike! Must see while in Seward.

Beautiful spot for family gatherings. BBQ pit, fire rings, and an ice-cold lake. Easy 1 mile loop or climb up for more of a challenge

Great hiking, lakes, grills, even an area for horseshoe! Bathrooms and seating areas as well as crystal clear water with salmon swimming all around! Must visit!

Cool hidden gem within Seward. Quick one mile hike with pretty waterfalls. Also nice to have horseshoe pits and fire pits for out-of-town guests to use.

Beautiful, short hike that includes views of two different waterfalls, right near the edge of town. Lots of mushroom varieties!

Easy trail with lush greenery. The first lake is magical with a hint of blue. The second lake is peaceful and rewarding.

Wonderful hike, ate many wild salmon berries and wild blue berries + watched spider on web catch bugs and wrap/eat them

Great food!!! Airy melt in your mouth donuts, super cheesy grilled cheese! Husband was skeptical about crab roll but he loved it!!

Everything we got was Sooooooo good! The crab roll is amazing and the lattes are very good as well. Definitely coming back for more before we leave.

A new twist on mini donuts with great specials like the Peach Crumble special we had today. Incredibly good. Maple bacon is exceptional as well. Great coffee and friendly folks too!

Was our first stop post cruise- had 6 each of the maple bacon, and fruity pebbles (SO YUMMY) a melt, and a few drinks. Perfect comfort food with great attention to detail. Hit the spot- big time. It was so good we didn't even take a picture before it was gone!

Just a little food truck but the crab sandwich was exquisite. Thick crab leg meat on a perfect grilled piece of toast with just a dash of sauce and herbs. Juicy, flavorful and delicious

Wow some of the best iced coffee in Seward! Many options, friendly staff and an affordable price as well. I wish I would have had room for food as it looked great as well.

Great place to grab fresh coffee and food! Great customer service too! Owners love what they do! 😊
