S/: Alaskan Cruise Port visits
Many people recommended eating aboard the ship before setting out on port visits; or if the stop was long, returning to the ship for a meal and then heading out again. Some would take a few items with them (extra muffins from breakfast, a sandwich made the day before and stored in your room’s fridge/cooler, fruit) carrying it out in a purse or backpack.
People would also bring along GF snacks packed from home, such as GF cookies, chips, pretzels, protein bars (Lara, Think Thin, Bumble Bars, chocolate bars, Shar or Mr. Krisper crackers, dried fruit.
Many mentioned having no problem finding GF food at restaurants in ports, though I got no specific restaurant recommendations for Sitka, Ketchikan or Juneau. In Victoria, British Columbia two people highly recommended a place called The Pizza Joint, which is on Wharf Street in the tourist area. Someone also had a great meal at Pescatore’s; she attached a list of restaurant and shopping options for Vicoria that she recommended printing and bringing along:
