I'm confused...are you objecting to the food or the location
Just say it, beckoa, where are you hoping we'll end up going???
You're coming from Eagle River - there's not exactly much in your neighborhood. And if we go to the BR first, it's just as quick to get to Dimond as downtown or really anywhere else except Spenard...

Hmm, not a lot of options for a party our size next Monday night.
That's looking for a party of 8 (currently-confirmed 7 plus one more spare); if we add in a couple more people, we're limited to just Kinley's, BrewHouse, and Simon's.
Hmm, what about jplenny's new place? The Valley might be easier for beckoa to get to...
(j/k
)
- Kinley's
- Glacier BrewHouse
- ORSO
- Sacks
- Simon and Seafort's

IMO, it's on par with the Brewhouse crowd...and this is the part I may get in trouble for...just better food and lower prices... If that gives you a comparison point...

However, their prices start 20% lower to begin with, and they have an excellent beer list featuring beers from all over Alaska...not just one place.
If it's beer you're looking for, perhaps we should go to the tasting room at Midnight Sun - good sandwiches...relatively cheap...excellent beer selection. But it's pretty tough to get a table...

We could just rent out the ANC BR conference room and arrange catering @:-)

OK, party of 10 reserved for Suite 100 Monday, February 7 at 7:00pm under the name "FlyerTalk." Be there or be square. 
(And yes, Midnight Sun is phenomenal, but it's so loud there, we wouldn't be able to hear each other, and I don't think they do corkage.
)
Ah--just called Suite 100 back to ask about corkage. It's $20 (it has always been $20, come to think of it), but they used to do a $10 credit towards the food (making corkage be, in effect, $10). They no longer do so, so it is indeed $20 per bottle.
Darn...but still looking forward to dinner there!
