It is definitely a good place. I stopped by 20 years ago. I was an exchange student living in Fairbanks and went on a trip to anchorage with my host mom. We stopped by the roadhouse on the way and until this day I talk to people in France about this beautiful, welcoming place I spend a night in, in a beautiful little town. I loved chilling in the living room near the wood stove and if I remember well I had a chicken soup with a biscuit. It was my first time tasting a biscuit and it remains my favorite side dish. I’m definitely planning on coming back to Alaska after all those years especially to the roadhouse. Thank you so much for those wonderful memories
Been to Talkeetna a couple of times. Stayed overnight at the Roadhouse once. The next time was in a little yellow cabin, ABB, close by. We had meals at the Roadhouse and enjoyed. A special treat, desert, we had there was the RAZZIE, a raspberry flavored, giant sweet roll, almost as big as the plate, split it between wife an I, loved it. The Roadhouse is special.
I spent a night at The Roadhouse in September of 2022. Very nice place. Trisha made us breakfast, and the sourdough pancakes were so good. She was very nice and so was the staff. It's definitely a place to visit if you have never been.
Roadhouse was our favorite part of Talkeetna and Talkeetna was our favorite town.
I love this series. Makes me want to move to Alaska.
Talkeetna is the absolute best place in the world! I've been to the road house quite a few times and have met you! I'm doc Yates' granddaughter ❤️ it was so geat to see so many people I know in this video! I miss talkeetna so so much. I'll be back one day ❤️
Thank you so much for the beautiful kind words!
Was Dr Yates the one who always wore a sidearm whilst walking around town?
@@Harold710 That don’t narrow it down
I smiled the whole way through. I miss and love the Talkeetna Roadhouse. I was there in 2008. I missed you every day since.
One of the very best in this series.
I love this! I'm just starting to put together more Alaska videos! Thanks for sharing!
I love me some Talkeetna... I used to live here!
Visited Talkeetna Roadhouse in May 1992 and it was quite an experience. Stayed 1 nite and had breakfast.Returned to Whittier in 2013 to board Diamond Princess ship for a cruise to china.
Wow, that sounds like an amazing adventure! :-)
I fondly remember stopping at the Roadhouse on a trip to Talkeetna in early October 2013. I had rented a car from Anchorage and driven about 120 miles or so. It was just me and the open road. The fall colors were riotous; absolutely gorgeous foliage! Nice lunch, intimate surroundings and lovely people. Now I am back here on the east coast dreaming of returning! Alaska is truly a world unto itself! The Roadhouse is an iconic landmark in "downtown" Talkeetna. lol ;-) P.S. I was also told by a local shopkeeper that the t.v. show/series Northern Exposure was based loosely on Talkeetna, even though the show was shot in Washington State.
I love the Talkeetna Roadhouse. The food is so delicious! Just the homemade apple butter alone is worth the trip!
🖤 this! Definitely stopping here one day!
It's closed :(
Probably one of my favorite places in Alaska.
I can hardly wait to go there summer of 2023!
I love this place! stayed there on labor day weekend and had an amazing experience! try the BLUEBERRY Pancakes!
We have been looking for property here, and I can't wait to come! I'm so excited and just watching this video has made me want to come even more!
Loved that place, CAN'T wait to go back!
Love your place, even saw some real locals in your video,
Cheers from Canada.
Love me some Roadhouse!
love it thanks !
I have a circa 1945-46 photo of my father, a US Army Air Force pilot visiting the Roadhouse with his flight and ground crew. They flew up from Elmendorf to get some time away from the base and its chow hall food. He flew into the Talkeetna airport that was built in 1938.
Back then it was known as "MacDonald's" Roadhouse. He loved Alaska, and was good friends with Bob Reeve, who wanted Dad to stay and fly for Reeve Aleutian Airlines, but my mother wasn't having any part of that. Sad, because I would have been born an Alaskan!
Charming af.
Direct and to the point :)
@@indiealaska 🤭 keep up the great work.
I wish I can go there in Alaska 😭😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
DudelikeHELLA sent me here : )
Would love to get there one day!!! But its a long long long way from where I live!
Unfortunately, the roadhouse was closed because of Covid. Hope it reopens next summer. Looking forward to their pies.
I am moving here soon ;)
