Over the river and through the woods to SEAVIEW CAFÉ WE GO. Seriously great, homey spot in this fun little historic town. Probably the only bar in town, but a great one. Great beer on tap, served in a nice mason jar. Food is shockingly good. They could easily phone-it-in here, but they don't. Bartender is always friendly and the bar is always filled with potential friends. I once chatted with a real-life gold miner for a couple hours. Fun shows here all summer long, closed in the winter :(

Hmm so my last encounter at the Seaview was great for me, but not for my honey.... an aquaintaince that just happened to be seated on the patio next to us ordered the halibut and chips. It looked beautiful, nicely portioned and tasty. So my love ordered it and when it came out it was literally half the size and the chips were just burnt dregs that were inedible. It was really shocking... I should have taken a picture of them side by side. I can't believe we paid 24 dollars for the pile of nonsense. On the other hand, my rueben was fan-ucking-tastic... as good if not better than the ones from the Jewish delis back home in Jerz. But again, my chips were just a pile of shit. Burnt dregs from the fryer...but it didn't matter because my sandwich was so frickin big. And our server was seriously taxed and it took forever for her to swing back around and check on us and eventually get the check and whatnot. But I was okay with the waiting cause its Hope and everything moves really slowly here which is actually kinda refreshing. We were there from the dinner to bar/live music transition so it was a little chaotic and entertaining to watch. The non bar dining side is very small and poorly ventilated so oce they close the patio for music, I would not recommend eating there unless it's a cool day and you don't mind waiting.

Holy hell, was this place fantastic! Was told by one of the guys that works for Nova River Runners to go here for lunch - and boy, am I glad we did. This establishment is situated in a small historic city - "Hope City" - that was originally a mining camp established in 1896. It is completely unassuming and so quaint, it was absolutely fantastic. The water is served in mason jars. The service was friendly and fast without that rushing you out the door feeling. The fresh Alaskan fish was plentiful and served every way possible. The food was just delicious. If you're anywhere near Hope - or driving down the Seward Highway - this place is certainly worth the 17 mile drive off the beaten path! Oh, and I hear they have live music on the weekends AND that the Nova guys hang out there - which is enough to make me want to go more often!! Go! Go! Go!

Seafood chowder was great. Halibut sandwich not as pictured - piece of fish very thin and didn't cover the bun, although it was good. Fries very good. Service a bit slow.

After attending a wedding reception at the Hope Social Hall, my girlfriend and I ambled down the street to the Seaview. It's definitely as described...an old wooden building with a stage/deck built off of it. Rustic. Charming. A good mix of Alaskan beers. Just don't expect any cocktails. Strictly beer/cider here.

Pretty good. A bit pricey, but supply & demand... Had their daily special, open face meatloaf with the in house made fries (great). Wife had the soup du jour being Texas style meat chili ( no beans). Is no bean chili really Texas style? I see bean on the menu as much as no-bean.

Entered with no expectations and left full and happy. The soup was delicious and just spicy enough. Small selection of beers but each one was a gem.

I was supprised looking at the other reviews that none are written by anyone from Alaska. Looks like it is time to fix that. We headed down to Hope for a weekend camping/hiking trip arriving Friday evening with the plan of grabbing some food and hopes of catching some music at the Seaview. So once we got ourselves set up, we headed into town around 7:00 pm. The Seaview Cafe is a quaint little place, that certainly has the look and feel of a sea side joint, perfectly eclectic and welcoming. We ordered a big cesar salad, some hot wings, and a halibut fish & chips with the plan to share it all. The food came out quickly, tastey and well prepared. The cesar was especially good and the portion was very generous. The wings were good, pretty spicy, but very wet with sauce. Very good if you prefer that style, but I like mine a little drier. The fish & chips was also very good, breaded in panko and served up with the darkest, crispyist fries I have ever had. That may sound like they were overcooked in frier oil that is overdue for changing, but I assure you it is not the case- these fries are great! After dinner we went out on the deck to soak in the sun and enjoy the two performers playing and singing and had a couple more beverages from the bar. The whole experience made for a perfect evening which is why I can't believe that more folks from Alaska aren't writting about their own experiencesenjoying this gem. Maybe no one wants to tell the secret. We'll be back sooner next time.

A lovely place. Gives you the taste of the authentic Alaska. It is a small restaurant. The guy that served us was very friendly and welcoming. The Halibut was very fresh. On your way from Seward to Anchorage it is worth stopping for lunch

This place is worthy of 5 plus stars. I'm not sure what any given traveler's expectations are for a small little establishment in a teeny tiny little town in Alaska, but I can say mine were definitely exceeded. To start with, how cool is it that this place is located in one of the town's original buildings, built in 1896?! They have done such a wonderful job of maintaining the charm and antiquity of this place, yet it's clean (so very clean!) and cozy. Our server was excellent right from the get-go, full of smiles, conversational, friendly, helpful, she deserves 5 stars on her own. Not to mention, she did a wonderful job putting up with some pretty snooty folks at the surrounding tables! The food was impeccably fresh and oh so tasty. We split the chowder which was superb and we each got a plate of fish and chips. The fries were some of the best fries we have ever had in a restaurant. Crispy on the outside, but nice and soft on the inside and seasoned perfectly. The halibut was perfectly cooked, and again crispy on the outside, yet flaky and moist on the inside. Also, it would be a shame not to mention the great selection of local AK beers on tap! We live in Anchorage, and my husband has wanted to check out Hope for quite some time. At first glance, I asked, "Why again?" but I would return to Hope just to eat at this establishment in a heartbeat.

I rode the Gull Rock trail (better hike it - not great for bikes) and I was hungry. The librarian recommended the Reuben at the Seaview and she was right! I am not one to order Reuben sandwiches on a whim, so I was a little nervous. But it was fantastic. The woman next to me was visiting a friend (bartender) and had been there for lunch and dinner. She ordered the fish and chips both times! Overall, this place has a lot of charm and great food. The views of Turnagain arm from this part of town are amazing.

This place is great! We came in directly off the gull rock trail, hungry and thirsty! Got a beer, they have some great ones on tap, and halibut fish and chips. There was a live band in the bar and they sat our group of eight all together. Great service!

This restaurant located in Hope, just off the Gull Rock Trail, is one of only around 6 buildings in the town...It is very laid back...water is served in Mason Jars.....I had a Grilled Chicken and Avocado Sandwich with sweet potato fries...the good thing about this restaurant is that gold is located nearby....

There aren't that many choices in Hope, so expectations can't be that high. Seaview is a small cafe with about 7 tables and, at the time we were there, 1 server. This was one of Hope's busier weekends because of the 5K race on Sunday (we were there on Saturday). I think prior reviews of this place may have been inflated because of hunger after hiking. We, too, came here after a hike on Gull Rock trail. I got the halibut sandwich ($16) which was a grilled piece of halibut. The portion was average and nothing special. The food took a long time to come out, and with one server, trying to get her attention for water was nearly impossible. She flat out disappeared for a while too, likely not her fault, but that meant the entire restaurant was without a server for a bit. The check also took a long time to come out. And then our friends who had hiked Hope Point (a really intense hike) came in to eat, and their food took even longer to arrive. It's a busy weekend, they should have more servers than 1. All in all unremarkable food, lacking service, but one of the only restaurants in town.

Well worth the drive off the Seward Highway. The seafood chowder was declared the best ever and the Reuben sandwich is towards the top of the list. Restaurant is nicely decorated and has a nice outdoor patio.

We went here after a long day on the trail and it was exactly what we needed! Excellent fish and chips, burgers and reubens. Serving sizes are big, I would recommend sharing. The bar next door had some hopping live music
