We had the best food of our whole Alaska trip at the Barn Door! Don’t let the small walk up window fool you—the absolute BEST fried halibut (fish tacos and halibut sandwich) and cheese curds around! Great service as well, we were able to grab a seat and a beer at the 49er bar next door and the food was delivered to us there. I will come back to Ketchikan just for those tacos!

I recently enjoyed an outstanding fish and chips meal that I can’t stop raving about! The halibut was cooked to absolute perfection—crispy golden batter on the outside, with tender, flaky fish inside that melted in your mouth. The fries were equally impressive, perfectly crisp and seasoned just right, complementing the fish beautifully. Every bite was a delight, showcasing fresh ingredients and skillful preparation. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who were attentive and made the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re craving classic fish and chips done right, this place is a must-visit!

This place is INCREDIBLE! Our captain from our fishing tour recommended to eat here said it was the best place in Ketchikan. I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat here because I am gluten free but we found out the fish is battered in almond flour which made our day! I can’t remember the last time I was able to enjoy a fried fish I was so happy. 10/10 recommend! It is a must. Definitely get the halibut!! The coffee was incredible as well.

Our family and I tried the barn door once when it was out at Knudson Cove last year and we remembered really liking it, so we were excited when they moved closer to town. Today, my brother and I treated ourselves to dinner. We both got Italian sodas, which came with a cute gummy bear in the whipped cream.
I got halibut and fries. They were cooked perfect and the fries were delicious. Probably the best halibut in town honestly. Not super greasy and definitely not frozen like some restaurants in town.
My brother got chicken strips and he really loved those. Great seasoning and yummy. The portions were larger than expected and we were very happy.
Truly a great experience 🙂 Staff was friendly and attentive. There was only one other party waiting (and no cruise ships in) when we went so we got our food very quickly.
Hoping they do well in their new location and will be keeping an eye out for return of burgers to their permanent menu!

We were having drinks at the 49’er and they suggested The Barn Door next to them for food since they don’t serve it. We walked 10’ and ordered and they even brought it over to us. The food was amazing and great portion sizes. Now this isn’t a knock on them because it’s the same everywhere but the prices are a little steep. We loved the food and the service. It gets busy when there are ships in port as it’s right across from where they dock and buses drop off from delivering from the other port.

Locals say their food is made with love and it sure tastes like it! Coming from South Florida / Florida Keys and eating lots of fish, I must say their halibut tacos were the best fish tacos my husband and I have ever had… so tender, the perfect amount of breading and some delicious housemade sauces to top it. We also ordered some halibut and fries, which we really enjoyed as well and everyone working there was really kind. A must in Ketchikan!

Burgers by the water. Good food. The cheese curds are absolutely worth getting. The tarter sauce that comes with the halibut is on point. Tasty fish and chips. The burgers are delicious. Swiss burger and the captain burger. I hear the shakes are bomb. We will be back.

Took a chance while on our cruise to rent a car and drive out to the Knudson Marina for some less crowded fishing. The views were amazing, we caught a few flounder, and assumed we’d have to drive back into town for lunch.
Then we found the Barn Door Eatery.
BEST. MEAL. OF. OUR. TRIP.
The Halibut fish and chips was perfectly fried and lightly crispy. The calamari had an amazing spiciness.
The chicken burger? Fantastic.
Sliders & burgers? Outstanding.
Our group ordered half the menu and everyone left fat and happy— even those with dietary restrictions loved what they had!
Absolutely worth the drive if you are looking for a great meal at a wonderful little place full of Americana charm.

Run don’t walk for their halibut & sweet potato fries! The freshly caught fish was cooked to perfection with a very light breading that gave a slight crispness to each melt in your mouth bite. The kids loved their burgers & French fries too. We ate our meal next door at the 49ers bar with a local Alaskan white draft beer. Best meal on our trip!
