Sitka's
restaurants
aren't exactly going to set gourmet tongues wagging, though there are several decent places to dine out. The best bargain in town is the
Sheldon Jackson College Dining Room
, David Sweetland Hall, a simple cafeteria-style place with all-you-can-eat breakfast (6.30-8am; $5), lunch (11.30am-1pm; $5), and dinner (4.45-6pm; $10): follow the road opposite the entrance to the Sheldon Jackson Museum. For great coffee, tasty sandwiches, pastries and light lunches duck through Old Harbor Books at 201 Lincoln St to
The Backdoor
(tel 907/747-8856) or try the small organic cafA© in
Evergreen Natural Foods
, 2a Lincoln St (tel 907/747-6944). The
Bayview Restaurant
, upstairs at 407 Lincoln St (tel 907/747-5440), offers great sea views and well-prepared dishes on its standard Alaskan menu, with additional Russian treats such as borscht; and the
Channel Club
, four miles west of town at 2906 Halibut Point Rd (tel 907/747-9916), is the place to go for steak: there's a free shuttle from downtown. For evening
drinks
, join the crowds in the
Westmark Shee Atika
's bar, or the down-to-earth
Pioneer Bar
on colorful Katlian Street. Other useful information
