Chilkoot Charlie's

Fodor's Review:

Chilkoot Charlie's, a rambling timber building with sawdust floors, 11 bars (including one bar made of ice), three dance floors, loud music (rock or swing bands and DJs) nightly, 2 DJs every Thurs., Fri., Sat., and rowdy customers, is where young Alaskans go to get crazy. This legendary bar has many unusual nooks and crannies, including a room filled with Russian artifacts and serving the finest vodka drinks, plus a reconstructed version of Alaska's infamous Birdhouse Bar. If you haven't been to Koots, you haven't seen Anchorage nightlife at its wildest.
