Good Food

I love to sit in the bar here, the view is fantastic. They specialize in a scratch margarita and any of the mojitos are truly refreshing. We always get the appetizer sampler and deserts. I’m sure their dinners are excellent too! If you want to sit in the main restaurant, make reservations.

This is a busy place but it’s worth the wait. The pizza is excellent and they have a good selection of local beers on tap. If beer isn’t your thing I highly recommend the root beer they have on tap.

How can you go wrong with food, beer, and an inexpensive movie? If that’s not your jam, sit on the grill side and enjoy the excellent food.

Did you know that It is claimed that Alaskans eat more ice cream per capita, than any other state in the country? Go try some of our local flavors at Wild Scoops! They even have gluten free cones!

Alaskans are pretty passionate about our coffee. We have several local roasters, Kaladi is among our favorites. They have cafes all over Anchorage, the location listed here is .7 of a mile from The Boothby House.

Peter’s Sushi Spot is only 1/2 a mile from The Boothby House. We haven’t decided which roll is our favorite yet, but I personally always go for the Rainbow Roll.

This bakery has two locations, both tucked away in neighborhoods. This is truly a local favorite that’s worth hunting down. The pastries are worth the stop. They also have limited gluten free options.

Pssst....although we have lots of great sushi places, this seems to be where all the locals head for their sushi fix. They have a gluten free menu and provide gluten free soy sauce upon request.

Anchorage is known for its diversity. Alaska and Hawaii ave very different but we seem have a very special connection as the last two states to join the union and possibly because many companies won’t ship to us since neither of us is part of the contiguous states. Their Poke is a local favorite, but everything is delicious here.

Anchorage has some great bike trails. The Tony Knowles Coastal Trail is easily accessible from our home and the views along the trail are spectacular.

To develop a better understanding of the immense diversity of the native cultures of our state, this is a stop worth making. Make sure to go out to the courtyard to tour each of the traditional living structures.

This is a smaller zoo, but it’s worth the drive out to see it. My favorite exhibit is the polar bears. If you are here in the winter months, check into tickets for Zoo Lights. The winter, night time zoo experience is one I do every year.

My Favorite Places

Need a book for the plane? I would check out this nearby new and used bookstore. Right next door, grab a latte from Kaladi Brothers! This store is within walking distance (half a mile or so) of The Boothby House.

I know this seems like an odd suggestion, you probably don’t need cases of anything on your trip, but this is a worthy stop for certain local gifts. Costco carries some Alaskan made seasonings that are wonderful. There is a berry syrup made by Kodak Cakes that is deletions, I serve it on waffles or drizzle it on vanilla bean ice cream.
