3 Best Bars in Ketchikan, Juneau, the Inside Passage, and Southeast Alaska

Background Illustration for Nightlife

Ketchikan is a bit of a party town, especially when crews stumble off fishing boats with cash in hand. You won't have trouble finding something going on at several downtown bars.

The Asylum Bar

With 30 beers on tap, including many regional varieties, this downtown favorite has four indoor and outdoor spaces and free Wi-Fi. Hungry patrons can order food from the Burger Queen and have it delivered to their table.

Fat Stan's Sports Bar

Young locals pack into lively, informal Fat Stan's, a cute spot with a decent selection of beers, wines, and spirits. You can snack on pizza as you sip.

Uncharted Alaska Distillery

Craft distilleries are popular in Southeast, and Ketchikan's—housed in a former firehouse near the docks—highlights everything good about the enterprise. It's locally owned, distinctive, and welcoming, and the drinks featuring several varieties of gin and vodka are superb. As with all of Alaska's distilleries, there's a two-drink limit.
