Picton is small and the ferry terminals sit right on the waterfront, so almost everywhere to eat is within a short walk of the wharf. This page lists the places we can put on a map within about fifteen minutes on foot of a terminal, nearest first.
Walking times marked with ~ are estimated from map distance to the nearest terminal, at a gentle pace with luggage. Times without ~ have been walked and confirmed.
