Not a sit-down restaurant, BUT the best Spinach Bread you've ever had (plus some daily specials you shouldn't miss either) served from a little, silver Airstream trailer. Located on Main Street. Sit under green umbrellas at the picnic tables, to watch people walk by while you munch, munch, munch delicious food.

Great food. Nice atmosphere. Huge outdoor deck. Local beers and spirits. We like the Mother Ale and their Pilsner and the veggie burger with sweet potato fries.

Go to the end of Main Street, to see the Susitna River rushing by. Enjoy a breathtaking view of the Alaska Range including Mount Foraker, Mount Hunter and Denali. You are standing at the confluence of three rivers: the Chulitna, the Susitna, and the Talkeetna River. Walk across the railroad bridge to get a different perspective, and follow the Chase trail some more if you are looking for an easy hike.

An hour drive north of Talkeetna, you will find a slightly different angle of Denali — "our" mountain. A close-up look from a viewing area that also offers several free-to-use binoculars.
