Wonderful food & fantastic environment. Definitely recommend the rockfisf! The peanut butter pie is a must for dessert , it's like nothing I've tried & positively delicious#

Marc

"just know that GBH is the place to be" Great crabs , ton of delicious brews, &even some pretty good pizzas ; Definitely stick with the seafood , which is highly impressive even by AK standards

Edmar Carrillo

I usually get the flat iron steak when we come here delicious and doesn't break the bank . Weekend brunch is surprisingly affordable AND they have a Bloody Mary bar !

Peter Berg

King crab legs are fantastic. Salmon entree was good, if a tad dry. Great fish & chips (get the halibut if they have it). Fries are really addictive! And of course, great beer .

Christina Chin

Friendly bar staff , really good salmon and hot choc torte for dessert . Good but a little too rich and dense for me

Cheryl Barnard

Ribs and cornbread were very good. Seafood chowder was tasty. Nice comfy booth . Would eat here again if time permits. Only downside is it is a bit loud if someone in the group is hard of hearing.

Lucas Zarlengo

Incredible meal. Anything is a great choice. Excellent cocktail too. Favorite item - smoked salmon dip .

Charlie Tiller

Crowded at 5pm on a Tuesday but food was great. Seafood fettuccine was delicious. Salmon special also terrific.

Road Unraveled

The beers are excellent. The Blonde and Amber Ale were especially good. The pizza is great too, can't go wrong!

Michael Cabot

The food was inconsistent. The fish and steak were great. The fries and slaw were not good. The peanut butter pie was delicious.

David Brumlow

No reservation is needed at the bar . We always get the calamari , ribs and the peanut butter pie . The food is the best in town and the beer too!

Vergil McCadney

The seafood chowder was delicious and I highly recommend the crab cakes . Had both and I am in love with Glacier Brewhouse!

Suzanne Stevenson

The halibut was to-die-for. The salmon was a bit overcooked, but still delicious. Will definitely come here again next time I'm in Anchorage.

Michelle Kappel

Flat Iron steak with root beer demi-glace -- medium rare & an oatmeal stout . Outstanding!! Can't miss

Josh Jones

Great beer , and possibly the best fish I have ever had. Get the sockeye or halibut , both incredible!

Arun Nair

Though not on the menu they do have an option for you to create beer flights . You can pick any 5 you want.

Yonatan

Try the salmon dip . The beef burley soup is amazing. I love this place.

Barrett A.

Great beer . Try the sampler. Food is above average but I didn't think it was as good as some other comments did. Calamari was greasy and salmon not that fresh for Alaska. All the ales were great!

Ryan Josephson

Great food. Amazing portions . Blood Orange IPA good, pumpkin ale no so much. Reservations help

Son of Emhak

The root beer is amazing and the new spicy nuts appetizer is a fresh change.

Andy G

The amber is great.. Served a little too cold. Barbarian hefe is an excellent rep of style. IPA is full of simcoe, love it!!! This place makes goodbeer, they just need a few guest taps.

Jenelle Melchior

Really good blue cheese and balsamic ribeye , snow Cosmo , seafood chowder , smoked salmon and bay shrimp Caesar salad .

Charles Koch

Impressive beer selection . Try whatever they have casked ...always a perfect pull.

Timothy Ralph

Crab Legs : Soft, Mushy, and over cooked. Wagyu Beef sliders : Cold and Flavorless. Server was great, manager compt'd all three. Disappointed, still hungry so I went to F-Street Grill food was amazing

Mark Bennett

Fish and chips , appetizers , beer , soup . Everything just amazing

Erli Dioses

Ale battered cod , Calamari and the king crab legs are the best. It's cheaper if you order two half pound king crab appetizer than the one pound meal.

Paige Cronin

Try the sampler of beers , halibut and the salmon wedge are amazing!

Jr Couch

Make reservations or you can wait over an hour for a table. Greay fried calamari and jalapeños .

Jamie Locklin

Flat iron steak was amazing. Well worth twice the price.

Krzysztof L.

Halibut is like nowhere else! Love it!

Jesse Ricciuti

Fried calamari was delicious and the herb crusted halibut is the way to go. Unbelievably tasty.

Alice Ferris

Try the Blue Cheese Wedge Salad - Close up of the wedge part of the Salmon and Blue Cheese Wedge Salad .

Barbara Begg

Alaskan Seafood soup is rich and delicious. Our server was excellent

Nicole Kasten

Local seafood . Good beer . Taster tray. Make a reservation .

John Krogman

Had the Fresh Catch of the day and it was great!

Rusty Ward

Try the Reindeer Sausage Pizza . If Santa knew how good it was, Rudolf would be looking over his shoulder on Christmas eve!

Dave Oestreich

Fresh caught Halibut...oh my.

Derek Sims

Bacon & Blue Chips are a genius idea and delicious!

Joe T

They have an IPA beer flight .

Cecily Sorensen

Must stop if in downtown Anchorage. Nice bar . Custom brews and hip crowd.

Helen Hickmon

The halibut fish and chips , Thai chicken pizza and the cocktails

Jim Cabral

If they have it, you must try the pumpkin ale - be careful, it's 9%.

MGA

Food is delicious and waitresses are gorgeous!

Kelly Carder

Can't wait to come with my best friend and prep ourselves with your fine food, drinks, & ambience for the new year of 2013! Num num num...

The kalamari is incredible and so are the beers

Superb salmon , but leave room for the peanut butter pie

Jeff Ludwig

Great service. Good food. Tasty beer .

Alice Ferris

Try the Wedge Salad W/ Salmon - HUGE. Generous portion--enough to share.

Emily Mehlman
