Restaurants near civic center

Traveling into Anchorage in June. We need to go to the Civic Center to get on the Park Connection bus. What restaurants are close to the area? We can walk there and then back to catch our bus.

Anchorage’s Civic Center area is quite central, making it convenient to access a number of restaurants within walking distance. You’ll find a mix of casual spots, cafes, and slightly more upscale dining options, so you can grab a quick bite before catching your Park Connection bus or enjoy a sit-down meal if time allows.

Here are some recommendations close to the Civic Center:

  • Snow City Cafe: About a 10-minute walk, this local favorite is known for hearty breakfasts and brunch. Great if you want a filling meal before a bus ride.
  • Moose’s Tooth Pub & Pizzeria: Around 15 minutes on foot, this casual spot is famous for its creative pizzas and local beers. A lively atmosphere and generous portions.
  • Gwennie’s Old Alaska Restaurant: Roughly a 10-minute walk, serves traditional Alaskan dishes in a cozy setting, good for a quick lunch or dinner.
  • 49th State Brewing Company: About 10–15 minutes walking, offers pub fare with a focus on locally sourced ingredients. Nice option for grabbing a sandwich or a beer before your trip.
  • Humpy’s Great Alaskan Alehouse: 15-minute walk, casual dining with seafood, burgers, and a variety of beers. Popular with both locals and tourists.

If you’re looking for coffee or a lighter snack before heading out:

  • Middle Way Cafe: Cozy spot for sandwiches, coffee, and pastries, about a 10-minute walk.
  • Cafe Amsterdam: European-style cafe with breakfast and lunch options, roughly 10–12 minutes walking.
