Lynch & Kennedy - Skagway, Alaska

Taylor Lloyd

I've been into this gallery multiple times while in Skagway. I was looking at the Gold case for a while then asked "can anyone help me?" The store was empty and one of the employees brought it to the attention of an older lady working behind the counter, she kind of shook it off. Then I had to ask again.

This isn't the first time I have had this type of experience in this store. Customer service wasn't very good. I choose to take my money elsewhere.

The only reason they received 1 star it’s because if I give 0 it won’t let me post.
One of the most undesirable experiences!
As I was about to go in to the store with my 4 year old twins, a lady came to the door, put her hand in front of my girl, and told her, “you can’t come in”. I thought kids were not allowed inside, but there were no signs stating that. Then I look inside and other children were inside the store, none of them the same ethnicity or skin color as mine. This lady then had the audacity to tell another customer that my girls were “rambunctious”, and “she couldn’t let them in”. She didn’t know my wife was standing next to that customer. Sadly, some people still think they are superior to others. The only signs on the front door “Family Owned” and “Always Welcome”, don’t fit this business.

Worked with the team to purchase a gold necklace. We were able to negotiate a fair price and we walked out happily. Very helpful gentleman.

I bought three gold nuggets from Lynch & Kennedy ten days ago. 9, 13, and 21 grams. I brought them back to a gold dealer in Fort Myers and had them analyzed. The 13 and the 21 gram nuggets were unquestionably gold nuggets, based on their quartz content, and their "other than gold" content, ie, silver, lead, iron and copper. The 9 gram nugget was considered "likely" a nugget, suspect only because it was 98.83% gold, with only silver and copper as "contaminates". Essentially too pure to be a likely nugget. My people did not consider the 9 gram nugget a fraud, just an unusually high quality nugget. If I had brought it in without the other two obvious nuggets they might have been suspect. My gold dealer believed that the price I paid for these nuggets was well within the range of nuggets on the market.
I highly recommend Lynch and Kennedy. Spending big bucks like I did last week takes a leap of faith, but I would highly recommend them as opposed to other nugget vendors in town.

I was looking for some local artwork as a keepsake from my Alaskan cruise, and I was drawn to the unique and high quality collection at Lynch & Kennedy. Very different from the cheesy souvenir shops, I could tell the items they carry are hand selected and more meaningful - at least that's the vibe I got, modern yet authentic. I rarely travel and I'm by no means an art collector, so I was apprehensive at first. The friendly staff explained that I could ship my purchase back home to Indiana for a flat rate. It arrived in perfect condition, and I would recommend Lynch & Kennedy to any travelers in the area looking for something special.

Fabulous local owner and super friendly employees! They helped me hide something I purchased for my daughter who was right beside me the entire time. Their shop was busy when we were there but they made time for us. They carry an assortment of items besides jewelry. Don’t miss the knife case in the back with knives from local artisans. They also display mammoth tusks that are for sale. Very knowledgeable about the items they carry. They design a lot of their jewelry so it’s not the same stuff everyone else has in their case. Don’t miss this store if you are looking for something unique to Alaska to take home!

Their store is full of beautiful treasures. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the items sold. Highly recommend stopping in while visiting Skagway.
Love love love the Silver Glass Salmon I purchased to remember our trip to Alaska.
