Sitka has come a long way since I left in 1993. These are the places where you will most likely find me when I am back in my old stomping grounds. 
Highliner Coffee Company – I love this place because the coffee is good and because you consistently get service with a smile. The setting is pleasant and clean with no frills. A fishing vibe is reflected in framed photographs of boats covering the walls throughout. You might even have the good fortune to stumble upon an impromptu jam session, as we once did. My husband (center) even got in on the action.
Ludvig’s Bistro – This itty bitty gem makes their own bread and and serves up outstanding cioppino, chock full of fresh fish. Just about anything in the seafood category reigns supreme here. The wine list is pretty great, too. I love that they feature organic produce from Full Circle Farm, in Washington State. The bistro’s warm walls and eclectic decor are inviting but not pretentious, much like the city in which it dwells.
Back Door – This pleasant cafe makes homemade breads and bagels, delicious sandwiches, soups and baked goods. They are located on the back side of Old Harbor Books which conveniently merges my two great loves. The downside is that their hours are sporadic and they only accept cash and checks.
