Fisherman's Daughter Hoonah: Menu, Hours & Location

Q: Do I need a reservation?

No reservation system is currently published. Guests can call ahead to check current wait times.

Q: Is The Fisherman's Daughter locally owned?

Yes, it's run by a Hoonah family and is a founding member of the Hoonah Off Ship directory, independent of the cruise port.

What's on the menu

Local seafood, hearty breakfast, real comfort food

The Fisherman's Daughter runs a full breakfast-through-dinner menu built around whatever came off the boats that morning: fried fish sandwiches, fish tacos with mango salsa, chowder, and fresh salads, alongside burgers and comfort-food plates for guests who want something familiar. It's the closest thing Hoonah has to a full-service, sit-down restaurant, with outdoor seating overlooking the harbor.

On Wednesdays only, the kitchen runs a "Mornin' Bite" grab-n-go bakery counter from 5:30–7:00am with housemade bagels, scones, muffins, cinnamon rolls, and a chicken salad croissant — a good option for an early excursion or an early ship departure.
