lovesublime Posted June 18, 2008 #1 Share Posted June 18, 2008 We were set on dining at the Glacier Brewhouse, but have encountered some trouble. I called for reservations and couldn't get in for the evening we wanted. We decided on another night and were told that if we were even five minutes late we would be pushed back by two hours or maybe not get seated at all-and if we showed on time-we can only have the table for two hours. That's fine, I really doubt we would be there two hours anyway. Is this place really worth the hassle? We're thinking of just blowing it off and going somewhere else. Does anyone have any other recommendations for a good dinner? Price is no concern. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Glacier Brewhouse is also very popular and always crowded, that is the reason for their policy I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renebfl Posted June 18, 2008 #5 Share Posted June 18, 2008 A few weeks ago, we tried to get in and it was a 2 hr wait. The hostess said there was a table in the bar area that we could take. It was great,we walked right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious how far out you tried to reserve a table. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curry767 Posted June 18, 2008 #7 Share Posted June 18, 2008 What about the Snow Goose as an alternative? They have a great deck out the back and they brew there own beers. http://www.alaskabeers.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious how far out you tried to reserve a table. Thanks. We tried to book a week out. If you really want to eat there it's worth trying. Here's the phone# 907-247-BREW. We've decided on Simon and Seaforts and have already made a reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love their scallop lollipops. http://www.r-u-i.com/pdf/menus/Kincaids-Milwaukee-Dinner.pdf Notice that the prices in Anchorage aren't really that much more than in Milwaukee. A couple bucks here and there. Great food, too! Except I probably want to eat at someplace in Anchorage that I can't eat at back in Wisconsin.
