The Alaska Cruise Port Food Guide: Where to Eat in Juneau, Ketchikan & Sitka
Skip the buffet on port days: Step off the gangway directly into Alaska’s finest waterfront crab shacks and artisan bistros.
Cruise ship food has its place, but the moment your ship docks in Southeast Alaska, the real feast begins. The ports of Juneau, Ketchikan, and Sitka are home to some of the freshest cold-water seafood on planet earth. In Juneau, walk straight down South Franklin Street to Tracy's King Crab Shack for giant steaming clusters of Bering Sea red king crab dipped in hot garlic butter. In Ketchikan, head to the Alaska Fish House over the harbor for whole steamed Dungeness crab. And in Sitka, reserve ahead at Ludvig's Bistro for Mediterranean wild black cod.
