What happened after Man v. Food?

Man v. Food visited the Roadhouse in Anchorage, Alaska, in an episode that aired on 2009-11-18. Evidence gathered for this record identifies the business as Spenard Roadhouse, a restaurant and bar in Anchorage's Spenard neighborhood serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A 2026-09-08 check of spenardroadhouse.com found the site live, listing a current menu, gift cards, job openings, and an active DoorDash ordering link from its homepage. The restaurant's hours and menu pages were reachable without error during the same check. The site's navigation included dedicated pages for the menu, an online store, and contact information, but no explicit copyright year or dated review was visible in the portion of the page captured. Anchorage's Spenard district, where the restaurant sits along West Northern Lights Boulevard, has long been associated with the city's roadhouse-style diners and taverns.
