Hyder has a fish and chips stand, two stores, and a bar. We visited them all! When we got to the fish and chips stand she was taking a break. We placed our order and went exploring. "Hyders Hides" was a fun stop. They had an amazing collection of pelts, mostly hunted by the owner! The fish and chips used to be in the bus, but post-Covid moved into a cute little wood shack. The food was incredible! By far the best fried shrimp and the chunkiest pieces of halibut we have ever had! We highly recommend it if you are in the area! After lunch we got some fudge at the little shop on main street, peeked into the bar (there are thousands of dollars in bills tacked to the walls) and then we had seen it all! Hyder is a strange little place- no official US presence (no police, customs, government) except the Post Office and they depend on Canada for pretty much everything. 26 residents last winter makes it a pretty small isolated town. As the sign on the road says, "The Friendliest Ghost Town in America".
