Not a sit-down restaurant, BUT the best Spinach Bread you've ever had (plus some daily specials you shouldn't miss either) served from a little, silver Airstream trailer. Located on Main Street. Sit under green umbrellas at the picnic tables, to watch people walk by while you munch, munch, munch delicious food.

Great food. Nice atmosphere. Huge outdoor deck. Local beers and spirits. We like the Mother Ale and their Pilsner and the veggie burger with sweet potato fries.

You may have to be a little patient, but you may see a bush plane fly in for a landing — almost touching the top of the Fairview Inn, and then touching down at the Historic Village Airstrip.

Go to the end of Main Street, to see the Susitna River rushing by. Enjoy a breathtaking view of the Alaska Range including Mount Foraker, Mount Hunter and Denali. You are standing at the confluence of three rivers: the Chulitna, the Susitna, and the Talkeetna River. Walk across the railroad bridge to get a different perspective, and follow the Chase trail some more if you are looking for an easy hike.
