The Pioneer Bar

  • November 4, 2003
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Colewade from Asheville, North Carolina
An Alaska Maritime theme is found in the thousands of framed pictures placed throughout the bar. This is a bar that is sure to have a local contingent. It is down on Katlain Street past the Pioneer's Home and near the packing houses and commercial harbor. It is a more seedy part of town full of broken down buildings, canneries and the docks full of small boats and fishermen. The place was crammed with crusty guys in colorful fishing-rubbers. They were downing shots of whiskey and marinating their whiskers in pints of ale. There is also a large bell. Supposedly whoever rings it must buy a drink for everyone present! It is just down the street from Ludwig's if you want a nice meal with your walk. The bar serves hot dogs, sub sandwiches, chips, and nuts.
