Our party of 6 celebrated a significant birthday by booking a lunch cruise in early February. We were seated in the dining room so all were toasty warm and had great views of the riverfront. The meals are not inexpensive but are well above the "hotel chicken" type of food. Vegetarian, chicken, beef, and fish entrees were all enticing and everyone could get what they wanted. Cocktails, appetizers, and desserts are available for a reasonable additional fee. Several of the party went topside (very cold wind) and were able to hear the captain's commentary on what was going by on the river. Included singing waiters! We'll go again in the summer when it will be more pleasant up top. Going on river cruises is one of the things I like to do best when I visit a new city. Can't believe I've never done it in Portland before.

I especially appreciated the friendly servers. We just stayed in our same seats that we ate lunch in and enjoyed hot cocoa and coffee. ( I wasn't sure how to tip though at the end of the event- I hope it was appropriate)

A beautiful fall day helped set the mood for a 2 hour lunch cruise on the Portland Spirit. Quick, easy boarding, fun safety demonstration, and we were off. Lunch was served immediately. Decent food for this type of attraction. Alcohol and dessert are extra, but not over priced. Live piano music during the entire cruise was a surprise treat. Gentle cruise up the Willamette. Great views of lower downtown, mcmansions, new apartments and condos and the floating homes. A few live-aboards, too, reminders Portland really is a port city. Quiet on the way up, but after turning around, there was a steady, interesting description of what we were passing through. Lot's of room, both inside and outside, which made moving from side to side to look at the scenery an easy task. Because the trip is kid friendly, it was great to see the extra webbing at toddle height on the railings. Good move here, Spirit !! Obviously not an attraction that requires a lot of activity, but fun and interesting nevertheless.
