Timber & Tide

We were in Alaska in September and we had a wonferful meal at Timber & Tide! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, food was fresh, flavorful and perfectly cooked. We had salmon taco, shrimp taco, halibut and chips. 10 out of 10!! Highly recommend this spot if you're in Alaska and want a delicious, relaxing dining experience.

Stopped here on our Norwegian cruise, this stop was our last town and my partner and I decided to get some coffee and have some food, Angela was so sweet, the coffee is so good, and the food is fantastic, the coffee is locally roasted, and the creme brulee donut was exceptional! We also tried the Halibut Fish and Chips and a Scallop taco everything was so good and fresh. If you want good seafood, great service and warm coffee stop in downtown Ketchikan!

LOVED everything about this place!!! Service was awesome. The young man who served us was so lovely. The food was delicious, fresh and tasty. The chips are unreal and the breaded halibut was the best I have ever had. We loved it so much we came back in the afternoon for iced coconut coffees, also yum! Well done team, keep being awesome!

Revised Aug. 15, 2025: What locals want from dining establishments in town right now is consistency, and Timber & Tide has it! We’ve ordered the Halibut & Chips multiple times now and it’s consistently fantastic every time. The staff are also consistently fantastic too, haha! Original: The staff here is super friendly! This was my second time ordering the Halibut & Chips, and it didn’t disappoint. The halibut is incredibly fresh—definitely the best in town. The breading is spot on: perfectly crispy and not too thick. And the chips? So good. You can tell they’re made from hand-cut potatoes, crispy with just the right amount of coarse salt. The tartar sauce is excellent too—great flavor that pairs perfectly with the fish

Eat here in Ketchikan!!! Definitely accurate 4.9 rating! They are new and FANTASTIC! The fish & chips are incredible and the fish tacos looked amazing. (The person next to us got them.) This is where the locals are eating their fish & chips! It’s also less expensive than the other restaurants. It’s across from Berth 5 in the cruise dock. Very close and convenient. Note: It’s the opposite direction from Creek Street. But eat here and then head to the shops and historical features on the other side of town. Or eat here before getting back on board. It’s worth it!
