Bearfoot Bens in Talkeetna

AMAZING! The burger was heavenly and perfectly cooked, sweet potato wedges crunchy and perfect. The pesto pasta was so fresh tasting. the blue berry mojito is a must have, definitely took a 4 pack home. The service was amazing! Everyone was so friendly. I would go here again and again.

Cozy yet hip brew pub with a ridiculously impressive beverage menu and very tasty food. We had the root beer which was rich, crisp and strong as well as the Braggart of Mead and the Agave Gold (the half beer and half mead split was light and really brought out the flavors in the mead). The fish and chips were very solid, buttery fish.... the breading was on point with zesty tarter sauce. The reindeer meatloaf was hearty, very much soul food for those hoping to get a slice of Alaska.Thanks for warming us up and the hospitality!

The bar tender and server we chatted with were so friendly! The Twister Creek IPA is amazing and they let me choose a birthday dessert (we ordered another to share), which was also amazing!

Always good food and drinks and friendly service.

Lovely patio. Great food. Great beer. Great service even in these trying times.

Very good food! There was quite a bit of dog hair on the ground of the outdoor seating but it wasn't in the food. That's what counts. Their pulled pork sandwich and sweet potato fries were delicious. No complaints!

They were friendly and service was fast. I had the reindeer meatloaf and it was the best meatloaf and gravey I have ever eaten. They had nice portions.

Awesome food! Get you some. And a beer.

If you like pub-style food, this place does not disappoint. As well, if you like beer, the beer is very good. Personally, I find myself having a slight bias towards cheap deals @ pubs, so I found the prices a tad high here, but they are far from unreasonable. I'd say they're about average. As well, if you go during summer, it has a bit of a frantic vibe to it. You also may have to wait a while to get a table. When I visited during March, I had a much better experience. Much less crazy busy, and the place felt less claustrophobic. In sum, I have very little in the way of true criticism, but a $3 beer happy-hour + more relaxed atmosphere would have made this place a 5/5 for me.

Nice place with nice atmosphere, good beer list and selection of food. My wife & I shared the pretzel bites/cheese dip and a large ceasar salad. The salad and the pretzels were very good, but the dip was bland.

Decent burger. Good location. Relaxing atmosphere.

The food was phenomenal. Breanne was an exceptions waitress, too. We loved the pretzel popper appetizers with heated cheese, cod and chips, burger with Swiss and Sriracha chicken sandwich.

Great food & service! It hit the spot! I had the Wild Cod, he had "Rudolph"...🤗

Delicious food. We were seated very quickly on a Saturday night. Ordered/paid from the bar and they brought food to our table. Easy way to keep distance during covid. Also made it REALLY easy to escape with two under 2 who were so ready for bed. Their sweet potato fries are the best I've ever had!!

Super expensive hut staff was friendly and food was great

Beer is great, and they are making the best of tough times. Support these local folks.

Great food, great brew, timely service, I visit most times I make it out this way.

This place is amazing. Unique beers, great cocktails , good atmosphere and even better food

Stopped in to look at merchandise and buy beer. Tristan's customer service was amazing. She was extremely professional and nice and was the correct choice to be the front of the restraunt as a hostess. She had such a welcoming attitude that I instantly regretted eating else where and wanted to call the restraunt one of my favorites despite never sitting down. If that is the hottest I can only imagine what the rest of the service is like.

This place is great, even with their Covid measures in place. Had a great meal with the kids and wife, even though their is no table service and you have to order everything from the bar. Draft cocktails are solid and pack a punch worth the $10 price tag. Don’t miss the blueberry mojito. Also had a round of beers, Missus loved the Mother Ale and I’m a big fan of the Single Engine Red. Big props to TRISTAN! We left our daughter’s hoody at the table (I blame the mojito) and she chased us down on our way to ice cream elsewhere to bring it to us. Big win for the brewpub, since we were so grateful for her thoughtfulness we returned with her for dessert, I bought some merch for a buddy and a bottle of their craft whiskey for my pops. Win-win! Kids couldn’t get enough of the brownie, which was gone in like 1 minute. This place is a perfect mix of authentic and touristy, which is great to see. Don’t miss it!

This is always our first stop before hitting the shops in town. They have a new blueberry mojito that is delicious. Love the smoked provolone cheese sticks!

Our server was kind and timely, thank you!

Amazing food, and great staff. Great cozy atmosphere, and a perfect place to get out of the cold, and unwind. The food was amazing and you can't go wrong with a beer. I would definitely stop in again for the fish and chips! They also have some great shirts, hoodie, etc.

Delicious spot to grab dinner at Talkeetna! We had a veggie burger and a chicken sandwich. Big portions and phenomenal flavors!! Due to covid restrictions, you have to place the order for food/drinks inside and then they serve you outside (outdoor patio seating available for dine in). Great weather, great food, great drinks (ordered an old fashioned cocktail which was also on point)

Great food and many drink choices. Salmon do was delicious and unique. Short rib was a big meaty portion. Pretzel sandwich had amazing flavor and great au jus.

Great server great beer. I just happened to be there at beersthirty and was able to quench my thirst.

Great beer selection and delicious cocktails. Hamburger was great and enough to share. Fish and chips were good. A lot of batter on the fish, I ended up taking most of it off as it was a bit much. Sweet potato fries are the best!!

It was nice, the building is nice, the staff is attentive. The food is nice. You might want to go early because they were out of a lot of options, they run out of food due to high demand when we went. They don't have many gluten free options if that's something you need to know. But if you are passing through Talkeetna, it is a good watering hole. They have lots of beers with fun names and high percent alcohol. Alcohol is definitely there strong point which makes sense, since it's a brewing company. So if you are into fancy drinks I'd recommend this place.

Great beer, food was delicious, albeit it took almost 45 min to an hour because our 'ticket didn't print' to the kitchen. Service is strange setup, if you've never been. It outwardly appears like a regular full service restaurant, but it's not. You order at the counter, and they deliver to your table number. No servers. No one will check on you, so be sure to go inside for anything you need.Smoked provolone and the Sriracha IPA grilled chicken are 🔥

Good place! Most restaurants are decently rated on this road

Fantastic mead, bear and mixed drinks! Great barvarian pretzels and the brownie was sick. We're definitely coming here next time we come out here!

Yummy food, very diverse beer selection, LOVED their sours and ciders.Staff is friendly and keeps everything very very clean. Definitely would go back.

Wonderful TKA dining experience. Lots of wonderful brew choices. Matt was a great server. We had a party of six and we ordered a bunch of choices... All were great. I added a bunch of pictures with captions. Salmon dip was great appetizer.

Food was great. Service was great too! Not a large menu but the food they do have is excellent

We are from Homer and have been to the Brew Pub about three or four times. We have always had a great experience even when they have been slammed. Great food, beer & service! Our last visit was in March of 2020 right before the chaos hit AK. We went the the pub on two separate occasions that visit and had Matty as our server both times. Shout out to Matty - YOU ARE AWESOME! From long-time service workers, thanks for what ya'll do and keep it up!

Great cozy brewpub with all of Denalis finest brews. Food is top notch as well, great fish and chips! They have some soul warming mixed drinks as well. Even if you're not hungry, stop by for a drink and check out their decor and photos.

Their dog-friendly deck is a summer favorite of ours. Our first visit of the summer revealed that they are taking reasonable Covid-19 precautions with increased spacing between tables and other measures. Great beer selection and good food.

Great food, house whiskey is amazing and they have a giant outdoor seating area.

Plenty of outdoor seating. Must try the blueberry mojito it's no joke. The fish are fresh too! Make sure you carve out enough time the service is not that fast. But worth the wait.

Amazing food in an amazing setting. Love this little restaurant in such a beautiful location. The sweet potato fries were amazing so was the reindeer meatloaf, worth trying both. Friend had the rib eye dip. The desserts were very good as well.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and the views were exquisite!

Excellent food and great service. Had a long talk with the owner about why he opened the business. Very personable and interesting story. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Worth every penny. Great local beer and if you never do anything else for yourself... Get the brownie!

The food is great and the atmosphere is rustic and comfortable at the same time. I'm looking forward to getting back there when I'm near Talkeetna.

Good food, great beers and friendly staff, what more could you ask for in a rustic small town. Located in the small Alaskan Town of Talkeetna AK, which is sort of a halfway stop for tour buses to and from Denali and the tourist train stop when they are returning from Denali National Park. It is a artsy type of town that is loaded with collectibles of all kinds. It does have a stop sign, a few paved roads as well as the railroad. It is a fun stop and enjoy a cool one or two or.... since more than likely you'll probably be a tourist and not driving anyway. Enjoy, we did.

Part of our tour with Salmon Berry Tours included a lunch stop here, where we were offered a predefined menu. The food - especially the “Fish ‘n’ chips” plate was waaaaay too oily. Didn’t enjoy much... Otherwise the place is charming and warm.

The reindeer meatloaf was spectacular! My husband really liked the 2 beers he tried so we bought a 6 pack of one of them for the evenings in the RV. Everyone was nice but our waiter went above and beyond to tell us fishing tips and a spot to go try. They sell glasses, clothing and a few other items with their company name on them besides some of their beer. We also shared a slice of blueberry cheesecake that was really good. Nothing disappointed. The majority of the food is made from scratch in house. I'd eat there more if we were staying in the area!

The pretzel bun cheeseburger, kids grilled cheese and chicken teriyaki bowl was really good. We were very pleased.

Even in the off season, the service is TERRIBLE! And I have had a job in the service industry. The employees never know what's going on and you will wait an hour for a table and then get restricted on how many people can sit there. The ONLY great service we got was from the bartender!

Great place to go for a blueberry mojito, reindeer meat loaf and Tristan!!
