Lucky Wishbone

Average Rating

35

This Anchorage institution of half a century (in high school we called it "The Bone") is where the real pioneer Alaska meets families out for a delicious, not-too-greasy fried chicken dinner and famous milkshakes (try the hot fudge) and other delights from the fountain.

Lunch: Since 1960, Anchorage's best spot for burgers has been the Lucky Wishbone. These quarter-pound delights come smothered with the condiments of your choice, though the Swiss and Bacon burger is a particular favorite. "The Bone" also serves addictive fried chicken and hot fudge milkshakes that are sure to weaken the resolve of the most dedicated dieter.

Opened in 1960, locals love this place for the chicken and fabulous burgers. Burgers are 1/4 pound, Cheeseburgers, Swiss and Bacon Burger and BLT's are all part of its menu. But it is the chicken that people really want; and its here! No one has ever walked out of here unimpressed with its chicken. End your meal with some Strawberry Shortcake or a Hot Fudge Shake. No alcoholic beverages are...
