Explore Port Gamble Historic District

For a date night that begins in the afternoon and then turns into a fun evening, consider charming, historic Port Gamble.

For a larger meal, you could stroll over to Butcher & Baker Provisions. A locally sourced farmhouse restaurant, butcher shop, and bakery, this place is often busy with locals and tourists stopping in before or after hitting the Port Gamble trails. So, consider ordering online to ensure it’s ready when you arrive.
