Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Fairbanks, the Yukon, and the Interior right now.
Most restaurants fly in fresh salmon and halibut from the coast. Meat-and-potatoes main courses, pastas and pizzas, and pub fare dominate most menus, but an increasing number of both ethnic restaurants and establishments serving healthier fare have opened in and around Fairbanks in recent years. The food isn't the only thing full of local flavor: Alaskan pride runs strong, so expect to see snowshoes, bear hides, the state flag, and historic photos incorporated into restaurant decor. As for attire, even in the most elegant establishments Alaskans sometimes wear sweats or Carhartts.
The Delta area is one of Alaska's few agricultural hubs, and this brewery makes the most of its location. Sandwich meats and salad greens come from area farms, and the thin-crust pizzas are crafted from local barley.
Located just north of the control tower of Fairbanks International Airport, this place combines Alaska's love of airplanes with the universal love of pizza. Grab a paper menu from the waiting area, circle your preferred toppings from the extensive list, and a made-to-order pizza will be ready in minutes from the 700-degree wood-fired pizza oven. Window tables at this third-story restaurant overlook both runways and the floatplane base.
