Red Onion Saloon

Red Onion Saloon Review

Whereas Skagway was once host to dozens upon dozens of watering holes in its gold-rush days, the Red Onion Saloon is pretty much the sole survivor among them. The upstairs was Skagway's first bordello, and you'll find a convivial crowd of Skagway locals and visitors among the scantily clad mannequins who represent the building's former illustrious tenants. A ragtime pianist tickles the keys in the afternoons, and local musicians strut their stuff on Thursday nights. The saloon closes up shop for winter.
