A nice place very close by to have a picnic lunch, straight up the hill on Congress! I highly recommend walking straight up and over the hill, down the promenade to the water and taking the eastern trail East, (to the right when facing the water), to go in town to the central shopping district, ferry terminal and Commercial Street! There are outdoor restaurants along the way right next to the water and food trucks lining the prom!
