Meals are all-important on any vacation, and the staff and managers of Great Alaska Adventure Lodge want your experience at the lodge to be nearly as memorable as your time in the field. With our guests arriving from all over the world, serving fresh Alaskan Salmon and Halibut is a must, along with prime rib, juicy turkey and flavorful salads and appetizers. In house smoked salmon,

Executive chef Mike Walsh and his accommodating staff are happy to work with your specific dining needs..whether it be a vegan diet, gluten intolerance, kids who don't love the vegetable scene or reduced fat/sodium diet for those being extra "heart healthy".  Please let us know of any specific restriction you may have so that we may ensure that your trip is all that it can be.

Lunch

Our trips are active, so other than your first day, lunches are served on the trail or in the boats.  On your arriving day, lunch will be served in the lodge, along with a thorough orientation for your specific itinerary.  Clam chowder, fresh salmon or halibut fillet, garden salad, pasta salads and many other specials will make their way onto the lunch menu.  For the balance of your lunches while at Great Alaska Adventure Lodge, in the morning while you are enjoying breakfast, the kitchen staff will lay out a smorgasborg of lunchmeats, breads and cheeses, vegetables and condiments, so everyone can create their own "perfect lunch".  Homemade cookies, fresh fruit, chips and filtered water round out the "adventurers' lunch".    In keeping with our goal of imroved sustainability, we have given up the water bottles for reusable Great Alaska logo water bottles, which will be issued to all arriving guests.  We'll have filtered water coolers available in the lounge and the dining room for refilling any time during  your trip- the bottle is your's to take home.

Breakfast

In thirty years of showing guests the amazing Kenai Peninsula (and Costa Rica and Mexico!) we have found that a good old "American" breakfast is as popular today as it has ever been.  As long as there are some lighter options (granola, yogurt, fresh fruit, croissants and jam) the old standby's are still a big hit with the "up before the sun" crowd.  Great Alaska Adventure Lodge has been fortunate to work with the amazing "Chef Stanley" for ten years, working with our guests to provide the perfect breakfast for you.    Every morning there are vegetarian options and lighter fare, plus the "entree of the morning"- eggs benedict, fisherman's scramble, The "All American" bacon and eggs, blueberry pancakes, and of course Stanley's famous biscuits and gravy!   Stan knows that sometimes a great story or good conversation is "the perfect condiment", and our guests mention him over and over in their comments about Great Alaska.  We feel very fortunate to have him on our team.
