Very cute shop completely revolving around Christmas. Lots of unusual items along with the standard items. Hot Cocoa and Fudge shop are very good. Having Santa and Mrs. Clause on site for pictures and video greetings was not expected. Plan on stopping for 2-3hrs EASY.
Very nice place
I love Santa love ant …the boy your coming to see Xmas morning … marry Christmas Santa and good night
In Michigan we have Bronner’s, but this is pretty good.
Cute! Took our family of five to Alaska for vacation and our eight year old was so stoked to visit Santa’s workshop. It was so wonderful the kids got to see Santa. the Santa and Mrs Clause were so kind and darling with the kids. It was like a giant gift shop though (says my husband). I didn’t mind in the least! I got all our family and friends back home early Christmas presents from Santa’s work shop (score). So many cute ornaments, toys, even some really pretty dream catchers.
Everything Is so expensive and there are no products of santa’s house’s
This place has a problem with getting perverted Santas, they always are way too touchy with girls I’ve noticed.
never been but i found out reindeers were real! 1 star tho, one looked burnt.
This whole place although pretty it’s very expensive so no not worth the trip, you can find all at much better prices anywhere else.

I actually go to Pro Music for all of my small scale gold mining supplies. Their selection is continuously growing and Craig (the owner) always comes downstairs to help answer any questions that you have. He is very helpful and goes out of his way to make sure that you are set. After my experiences here, I am not going anywhere else!
I had a microphone that wasn’t working and thought I needed a replacement. After calling every store in town I could think of I finally found what I needed at Pro Music. When I arrived with the equipment I thought was dysfunctional in tow, the guys kindly pointed out that it took a battery. They tested out a new battery and the microphone worked just fine. I really appreciate that Pro Music didn’t sell me a new $100 item when all I need to do was change out a battery (and they were also very kind about my oversight). Kudos!
I’ve been a customer since 2001. Always great customer service. Very knowledgeable staff and decent selection of instruments and gear!
Good selection of mining equipment and friendly helpful employees, never bought music supplies. The owner is unfortunately both rude and condescending. Additionally, the prices on smaller items (pans, screens, matting) is extremely inflated. You can get the exact same stuff on eBay or Amazon for a fraction of the price even if you have to pay shipping to Alaska. It is a shame that a local store is so inattentive to customer service that we have to turn to online stores for mining supplies.
7. Music Mart & Studios
Address: 413 Noble St, Fairbanks, AK 99701 , North Pole , Alaska , United States
Service is Great, I loved our time talking to the experts about our banjo and they treated us like rock starts, I’m grateful for a music shop in our area that has good Services and prices on everything and even include rockstar Service! I can’t give these guy’s enough stars on this review, we will definitely be back!
Excellent customer service. I called to see if they had what I needed and they offered to pull the items and have them at the counter for when I arrived. Very friendly staff.
All I have to say is they have great service!
My kids love it.
Great little place for all your music needs. Just wish the people was a little more friendly.
Cute little shop that’s been there forever. Only down was being treated like I didn’t know what I was talking about.
Expensive
I came in with my dad to look at guitars and to ask a price on his old banjo. I know my instruments and how to find the correct prices on used items. The lady who helped us, gave us the correct price, but she was talking down to us the whole time. I have never seen my dad treated so rudely.
Not impressed by their customer service, although I did get what I needed done, thus the 2 stars. I’ve been a few times over a period of 7 years and both times they were rude. I’ve also known people who have said they were rude. I’ll try Pro Music next time perhaps.
8. McDonald’s
Address: 352 N Santa Claus Ln, North Pole, AK 99705 , North Pole , Alaska , United States
Slow but 7 out of 10 trips oir orders are correct, saddened the sausage mc.griddle was removed from the all day breakfast. We only eat the breakfast items from mc.donalds or get drinks so unfortunately, we will not be making a stop on our way to fairbanks anymore.
McDonald’s is suppose to be open 24/7 or at least the drive thru is. But they are never 24hours. Maybe it’s because they don’t have employees. But why advertise it if they can’t stay open. Maybe corporate should know why they aren’t open. Someone please report this higher and fix this problem. No all people work day shift. Maybe they would like food from our local McDonald’s as advertised
If you go inside this business they don’t even acknowlege the fact that you are there.I stood there by myself before anyone acknowledg my existence for nearly 10 minutes. I was the only one in the lobby.
this McDonald’s (off Johansen) really needs some help. can’t comprehend what you are saying at the drive thru and I have gotten orders that were cold. it’s the only place open late so if you are a risk taker this is the place to go. overall repetitive poor experience
9. Level Up Barbershop
Address: 667 St Nicholas Dr, North Pole, AK 99705 , North Pole , Alaska , United States
My oldest son, 9 years old, said it was the first time he’s ever liked his haircut. We were lucky enough to be able to get seen on a walk-in basis, but would highly suggest making an appointment.
I’ve been coming here for a few months now, with Jaron as my Barber. Hands down the best haircut I’ve ever had. I never have to question if it’s gonna be done right. I highly recommend this shop and Jaron!
Darren is a High level extremely skilled barber. With the professional ability to not only give a great haircut, but also hold excellent conversation while doing so. 10/10
Can’t wait for these guys to blow up, relaxed environment, classic chairs, hair wash chairs and plenty to keep you and the kids occupied while waiting!
While the haircut was perfect and I love the work/product. It was very expensive.
Not very good at all
What is the point of having the option to have an appointment, I left without a hair cut, appointment was half hr behind the time it was supposed to be, I hav e things to do and don’t have time to wait… last visit here
10. 1st stop shop
Address: 2439 Old Richardson Hwy, North Pole, AK 99705 , North Pole , Alaska , United States
I love this shop! Ben and Trevor are great mechanics who take the time to discuss the options with you and never cut corners on quality. Ben runs an honest shop and his rates are very competitive. You get better service with Ben than you do anywhere else in town. I’ve referred five people to him over the years and they have been happy with the service he and his staff of qualified mechanics provide. Furthermore, everything they’ve fixed for me, including my oopsies I’ve done trying to play amateur mechanic, have never resulted in further repairs.
I blew a tire and carried it in. They fixed it really quick. Were super nice and friendly. Even offered to give me a ride because I walked the tire in. Great shop and great experience here.
Seem like some good north pole mechanics
Called to get prices to replace my alternator. The lady on the phone was so rude, gave attitude cause I was asking questions on how the turn around time would be cause I needed the car for work. She continued to give attitude… so I just said ok right now I just feel like I’m just getting attitude from you… so I’ll call someone else.
I don’t want not need service from someone rude.
But thank you anyway.
Don’t have the right tools to be a tire shop had to go somewhere else to get tire sensors programmed to the car when I went somewhere else the new sensor I got from them it wouldn’t program so I just got a new ew one put on at that place and it was cheaper with better work I wouldn’t suggest them to anyone I wasted half my day with them
My Niece dropped her truck off and let them know it was still under warranty and asked if they could fix it? They said yes after having the truck for 7 weeks they told her she had to bring it to the dealership. I do not recommend this place of service. Who does that? She has two small children aweful service
