General:

Bear Track Mercantile
“Downtown” Gustavus Alaska consists of a hardware store and a general mercantile, plus a cafe that might be open, (might not), and a picturesque gas station/ gift store down the road, (one of the most photographed gas stations in the United States!)

Just down the road in either direction is a post office, the airport with several charter plane companies, the harbour with a few fishing and touring boats, a K-12 school, a library, a few art galleries, a resale shop, sometimes another cafe or two, (maybe open, maybe not)...

The Bear Track Inn's dining room features a great family-style atmosphere for breakfast and dinners...

Choose between locally brewed beer or an extensive wine list to compliment the dinner menu and between three to six entrees that could include steak, salmon, halibut, pork tenderloin, chicken, buffalo, caribou and vegetarian dishes.

If this does not tempt your tastes buds, there will also be nightly specials, such as Halibut Parmesan, Excursion Halibut, Salmon in Parchment, or many other Inn specialties. Combine this with Alaskan favorites such as Dungeness Crab, Alaskan Spotted Prawns, seafood soups and salads, homemade breads, freshly made dressings, and finish with dazzling desserts. It's a dinner to remember.
