Located on the Homer Spit, this place is a hole in the wall that has been around since 1957. Little lighthouse on the building. Walk in through a small Hobbitt like door, dark, and you see nothing but 1000's of dollar bills on the walls and ceiling from all over, signed by tourists eager to be remembered. You have a... More

Anyone who has been to the Salty Dawg will tell you that you can't really say you have been to Homer until you stop by.

The Salty Dawg is an iconic relic on the Homer Spit. Cannot go to Homer without having a beer here. Very authentic feel to the place, good beers.

Every time I visit Homer I have to go to the Salty Dawg saloon. It's a cramped little bar with a jukebox in the corner and dollar bills tacked up with the names and places that people are visiting from. The barkeep is a great woman and I love to go in and catch up on the current happenings when... More

We had to stop here and grab a drink, since my nickname happens to be "Salty Dog", good cold beer is what they do best here, nothing fancy.

No trip is complete to Homer without a stop at the Salty Dawg. It is a very small pub that serves beer from the Homer Brewery Company and has the most distinctive decor--thousands of dollar bills (and probably other denominations) signed and pinned to every nook and cranny of the place (see photo). There are also other assorted items mixed... More
