The Oldest Restaurant In Alaska Is A Culinary Masterpiece
If you’re looking for a restaurant with a history of delivering some of the best food in the state, you need to visit the oldest restaurant in Alaska. The White Spot Cafe, located right in downtown Anchorage, has been around since at least 1959. And filled with classic comfort food, this is a must-see if you’re looking for a little slice of Alaska history.

Mr. White opened the White Spot Cafe as early as 1946, and it’s possible it was even as early as 1941, according to its current owner. To date, the White Spot Cafe has had five amazing owners bringing it through the decades to today.

There’s a reason why customers come back year after year, decade after decade. The diner has a cozy feel that keeps people coming back to order their favorite meals.
