1606 is spectacular! Located in the magnificent Beauport Hotel.. the bar is large with special views of the harbor. Cocktails created by gracious bartenders.. indoors or out on the immense sea view terrace. The food is amazing-- delicious raw bar options plus an extensive menu with options for everyone. We were in a private area surrounded by windows to the water.. but the main dining room is lovely., Highly recommend! read more

If you find your way to the amazing fishing town of Gloucester, you need to go ahead and get yourself a meal at 1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar. This place is an absolutely elevated location in the Beauport Hotel right there overlooking the harbour. You have unbelievable views, food, and service. From local catch cooked just right or served the way it's supposed to, fresh or raw, this place has it all. It has delicious drinks. An amazing presence and atmosphere between the raw bar, the main bar, dining room, outside seating, and private room. I've done lunch or dinner at each dining spot and it's never disappointed. Do not miss this spot if you are in town. This place is fantastic. Make sure to try and catch Andrea and Arwen at the bar. They are fantastic and provide amazing service! Ocho Tequila on Ice - Perfect/10 Raw Oysters from Canada - 9.3/10 Raw Oysters from Massachusetts - 8.3/10 Conserva with Tuna Filets - 8.8/10 Quahogs - 8.7/10 Brussels Sprouts - 8.1/10 Only thing not good about this place is that they aren't closer to me in Florida! read more

There are a lot of great seafood restaurants in Gloucester, and while 1606 is definitely good it is not up to the same standard. I had the lobster roll and press not as large or flavorful as some of the others I had in the area. Not at all bad, but nothing special. The lobster was nice and fresh, though the bun was a little doughy. The fries were crispy but not that seasoned. Service was friendly but they barely checked on us and I was dying for a refill of my Diet Coke. Not a bad meal, but not fantastic. read more

Beautiful Friday afternoon. Tthere was a late afternoon wedding at the hotel. Bar had only a few people. People were also eating on the deck, but there was a cool breeze so we sat at the bar. We received menus right away but the woman bartender did not take our drink order right away. Once we ordered wine, some of the wedding guests came in and that was that. She never looked our way until we asked for the check. We took the rest of our wine to the deck where we had a very nice server. When my green goddess salad came the lettuce was all brown. He told me it was the variety of the lettuce but then agreed and took it back to the kitchen and the lettuce new salad was perfect. The lettuce on the bottom of the Caesar salad was also brown, but we let it go. The rest of the lunch, crab cakes and lobster roll was fine. There is no excuse for serving bad food. read more

BEAUTIFUL VIEWS! Service was attentive and friendly. Food was great. Highlight was the lobster roll - solid portion of lobster meat. Folks at our table got it both hot and cold - both ways were done incredibly well! Cocktails were all great. read more

This place is comfortable and classy. The views are worth the price of admission and the good, service, ambiance are just as good.

Sitting ocean front with great seafood and service, what could be better? Both Maine and Mass oysters, great cocktails and bread with onion butter, all good! Kody to take care of our reservations and Vanessa to serve us, both very nice. read more

Food and service were average. Best part was the view from our table on the deck. In the Beauport Hotel.

My wife and I dined there in January 2025 and then again in January 2026 to celebrate our winter anniversary. We stayed at the beautiful Beauport hotel and this place is right inside next to their incredible bar that must seat 30-40 people. Anyways, we love seafood and this has an ocean blue oyster bar which wasn't too well attended but most the tables were busy and full. Wife went with the swordfish and I had broiled scallops but a bit disappointed it was only 4 of them, although they were good sized ones. Served with baked potato and broccoli which I also enjoyed. Very kind to let us celebrate with a compiimentary glass of champagne which was very much appreciated. Service was solid and efficient. Must say that this is located overlooking Gloucester harbor and the ocean views are spectacular there. Very comfortable and pleasing place to spend time. read more

Perfect Holiday Party Venue We hosted a "friends" holiday party fireside at The Beauport Hotel and it was absolutely wonderful. Emily (Restaurant AGM) was fantastic helping with the planning, with Gail (Hostess Manager) stepping in seamlessly to ensure everything ran smoothly, staying way over her already long shift. Chef Jon and his team delivered incredible food, and our servers, Katie and Chelsea, were so attentive and went way out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful time throughout the evening. The Beauport Hotel setting is truly magical -- it genuinely feels like Christmas the moment you walk in. The décor is beautiful, the atmosphere inviting, and the team clearly cares about creating special experiences. We also hired local piano player Jack Favazza, who added the perfect festive touch. Our friends had an amazing night, and we're so lucky to have The Beauport right here in our backyard. Thanks for all you do! read more

Was just ok experience. Service was spotty. Food was ok with very good mussels appetizer, gussied up Brussels sprouts and burger that was marginal and uninspired. 2 1/2 stars. read more

The service and the view were excellent. The food was also very good. Our issue is the recent changes to the menu. We visit several times per year and always enjoy having a few drinks, taking in the view and sharing small plates from an extensive selection. This week's first visit since January found a new chef and a significantly shrunken shareable menu. Stuffed clams, gone. Crab dip, gone. Meatballs, gone. Fish croquettes, gone. The food we had was still very good, but we absolutely missed the variety of options. Will we be back? Yes, still a beautiful restaurant with great views, but we definitely left a little disappointed. read more

Beautiful views, friendly service, great drinks, wide menu selection, and delicious food! We especially loved the funghi pizza and the fried calamari. The tuna nicoise salad special was tasty but the color of the tuna was a little off-putting. Overall we had a great experience and cant wait to come back! read more

1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar - New American Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

We called a 2 weeks before 7/3 and made reservations for 6 for our anniversary. They called me the day before, to reconfirm. I also spoke to them in between with specific questions on valet parking. When we arrived in Gloucester...the city was shut down due to a horribles parade. A parade which anyone that lives or works in Gloucester would be aware of. The 1606 failed to mention that all the streets would be closed down and there would be no way to get anywhere near them. We spoke to police at several blocked roads, and they all said the same thing, you're getting no where near there. You can find a spot and walk ( Over 1 mile- 97 degrees out ). We called the restaurant to ensure they weren't going to charge us for missing our reservation... and the woman that answered the phone, had no clue what was going on... acted like it was business as usual. I know that the 2 other couples had ALSO called and asked if there was any alternatives, a later reservation perhaps... and had brought up the blocked streets to this same person. Absolutely horrible customer service. Get a clue, and start telling people for 7/3 reservations.... about a late evening parade that will shut down the streets for hours. Ridiculous. read more

Considering this restaurant is inside a hotel, it is very unfortunate how little they care about offering a menu that has options for those with dietary restrictions. I called and talked to a manager Emily who sounded like she could care less about making accommodations for a vegan diet. I was basically told we are not a vegan restaurant and you can have the falafel. It takes so little to have a menu that has an entree for all. I will take my money elsewhere. read more

Great food, even better views! Service is good too, we went for brunch on a Tuesday morning. The menu is varied and comprehensive for a hotel breakfast, there was also a buffet available. I picked a croissant sandwich with bacon on thee side and avocado added, we also got an everything bagel with lox added. They forgot to put the bacon on the side for mine, noticed it before I said anything when the food was brought to the table, and redid the egg for me which was very nice. The croissant sandwich and the side potatoes (seasoned to perfection) were each very good, they happened to have excellent croissants which is a rarity on the north shore. Parking was also very easy, they have their own lot and there's another public lot down the street. The ambience is spectacular. The view is amazing and there's ample outdoor seating. read more

My partner and I celebrated our anniversary at 1606 and wanted a very special evening. We got it! When we arrived, we were greeted by our server, Libby W., who knew this was a special occasion, and we got a very private booth. Libby is one of the best servers we have had! We had already decided that this would be a night to try the Champlain Tower, with assorted seafoods including clams, oysters, shrimp, haddock ceviche, crab claws, and lobster tail. It was fresh and delicious. we drank an Austin Hope Chardonnay, perfectly crisp for the seafood. We were served warm oatmeal bread with sweet onion butter as well. After the seafood tower, we completed the meal with the Korean chicken meatballs and fried calamari with peppers. For dessert, we took Libby's suggestion and had the Banana Trifle. It was extraordinary. Throughout the evening, the pace of the service was excellent. We had time to completely enjoy the seafood, and when we had enjoyed it, and only then, were we asked what else we might like. Although we did not NEED a dessert, we devoured the banana trifle with pleasure. Our meal lasted 2 hours, and we appreciated the opportunity to have a leisurely meal in a beautiful setting. read more

We've dined at the 1606 a handful of times over the last few years and it's such a gamble. We've had an awesome experience with brunch in the summer outside on the deck with our young kids but then last night experienced subpar service and food when out with friends. I wish the consistency was there for this to be a solid choice always but that hasn't been our experience. Last night items were missing from our seafood tower and our waitress forgot to bring drinks a few times, our table had a few folks unhappy with their entree dishes but some pleased. For the location inside the Beauport and the prices I would expect a higher caliber of service. read more

My fiancé brought me to this hotel for our anniversary and 1606 (the hotel restaurant) was strongly recommended to us by friends. Make sure to call ahead to make reservations if you're heading there for dinner especially on a weekend! Okay so...where to begin. Everything was so good we came back twice already and I'll bring every Boston visitor I have here!! We ordered the crab cake which was large and had a hearty amount of crab meat. Between the two of us the crab cake and delicious clam chowder (large size) were sufficient for dinner and we ended up having to take our entree to go we were so full! The house tartar sauce was perfection. We loved the half bottle of wine option and views were amazing despite a bit of a stormy weekend. Complimentary bread was delish and served with a house made fig tarragon butter. Can't wait to come back. ;tldr order the crab cake and the clam chow you won't be disappointed. read more

We did dine there on August 15, 2026 to celebrate my husband's birthday which we had specified and also had requested outside seating for that. We got there we were told we would have to wait for an outside table or put on a waitlist. We did get outside, but it wasn't out on the open deck. It was under a covering which was OK. The food was OK appetizers were oysters claims and the shrimp cocktail which were pretty good. My sister and I shared a seafood scallop dinner, which was very good and our husbands ordered the pizza which was not good. The crust was really dry. It was taste like cardboard and almost taste it like if it was frozen. We wanted to go up to the rooftop to listen to the live music but the hostess when you first walk in told us that we needed tickets for that and we didn't have tickets. She wasn't very helpful at all so the next day we came in and we wanted to listen to music we were looking for dance music. She told us there was live music up on the rooftop and that was that she said that we would have to pay $25 for a wristband cover charge but neglected to tell us that it was a two man or two piece acoustic and whoever was up there had already left. It was no ambience. Nobody was there. There was a few people floating around the pool when I went down to tell her when we were leaving I said to her that it would've been nice if she had told as well it's life acoustic music if you're looking for something more lively, you know that's not playing tonight and we would've never purchased the tickets so with that I was very disappointed. Her response to me was I'm sorry I don't know. read more

This restaurant more than likely doesn't need my review because it is a well known spot in Gloucester. But I have been here many times now and not leaving a review feels rude. First, I would like to say that all of the wait staff is wonderful. They are very nice and top notch professionals. The indoor ambiance is nice and comfortable but the outdoor deck is the place to be with fireplaces, heat lamps, mushrooms and personal table fireplaces. The mood is rich and waterfront property. But that doesn't mean a regular Joe won't have a great time here. Things to note: the appetizers are gargantuan in size so be ready to share. The short rib appetizer can easily be a meal and you must have the pear salad or the fig salad. These two dishes will convert any carnivore into eating clean. But the short rib is reasonably priced and a creatively delicious dish. The dinner offering change because the seafood is fresh. So over the summer I had a tuna meal that was caught the same day. I have never tasted tuna so fresh and I love sushi. I had a pasta dish once and it wasn't my cup of tea but the haddock carousel is delish! But to be honest the appetizers are very creative. The dinner options are delicious seafood and steak options. The vegetable pairings are also to be praised. Go 9 months of the year when you can be outside. Nothing beats the beach view and the whole beachfront atmosphere. The food is worth it but the entire experience is a must. I forgot to mention, if you're a fan of Wicked Tuna, you have a good chance of seeing the captains eating here. My friend visited from NYC and I brought him because he is a huge fan and BOOM! Wicked Tuna was right behind us! read more

Made a reservation for 8 in advance a week prior for my cousin's night before the wedding celebratory dinner and overall it was a wonderful time! The oysters were delicious, the lobster roll was a bit pricey BUT coming with a great serving of side salad was perfect. The pasta options my friends ordered were plentiful as well. Our server was wonderful and very attentive to our large party. read more

1606 was unbelievable. From the service to the food to the view, everything was fantastic! The homemade crab cake was the best I have ever had - the bean and corn salad and avocado was a lovely touch. We also had the lobster bisque, clam chowder, scallops, Bianco pizza, and caprese and Caesar salads. Every single item was to die for. And the drinks were lovely, and the service by Livvy was phenomenal!!! 12/10 experience, and will be returning! read more

We ventured up to Gloucester on Sunday to enjoy the slightly cooler weather. It was mid-70s and perfect to sit outside overlooking the water and have a delish breakfast! We were too early for "brunch," but their breakfast options were very satisfying; we actually ordered too much, *gasp*! We started with juice and water, then ordered the fisherman's omelet, which had tri-colored perfectly sauteed bell peppers, onions, lots of cheese, and spicy linguica! Along with that, we had to try the lobster benedict, which was a lobster cake, perfectly poached egg, more lobster meat, and a Newburg sauce. The "home" fries looked like homemade potato chips at first glance, but they had a neat "puffiness" while still being crispy; what the what?!?! And the seasoning was just right; we didn't need to dip them in anything, but we found out they are super yummy in the Newburg sauce! The yogurt parfait is quite large! Lots of seeds, granola, nuts on top of mixed fruit, and vanilla yogurt with honey! We def could not finish everything and probably could have done with one entre and the yogurt, lol. Sitting out on the deck was the perfect way to start this lovely Sunday. The service was impeccable, and def somewhere I would take friends and family! read more

I had my wedding dinner here and it was magical! Jessica helped prepare for the evening and was in touch a couple months before, sorting out details with me. I had an intimate dinner with 12 people in the private room and Arwen was our server. She was so excellent; she was warm, attentive and knowledgeable. The table was set beautifully and met every expectation. Everyone really enjoyed their meals, especially the oysters and french fries! I love this restaurant and will be back and recommend to anyone in Gloucester. What a gem! read more

1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar - New American Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

Been coming to this restaurant since the hotel opened. Food has always been amazing with a unbelievable appetizer/small plate selection for seafood and non seafood people.Just recently came to dinner here with friends who have never been here and was so disappointed with the menu. Appetizers catered to people who like seafood, we had some non seafood eaters with us. Found a cheese board and oredered that. MOST disappointing if you like lots of blue cheese and a goat cheese (it was very strong, if that makes sense. I guess just not a really good one), cut up sweet pickles lots of designer lettuce, few almonds, and crostini for $27 then go for it. The type cheese is not listed on the menu and i guess from what I was told its whatever the chef has at that time is what will be on the cheese board. So I recommend you ask. 2 years ago the cheese board was outstanding 4 types of cheeses (the goat cheese was amazing) and it easily was shared among 6 adults. We were told there is a new chef when we asked about things that use to be on the menu. 2 of us got the haddock and it was dry, how in Gloucester can you mess up fish! I could go on. The food was not up to the elegant hotel standard you would think u are going to get and its on the higher price side. The 3 stars are for the restaurant, I recommend going to another for dinner there are so many great less expensive ones down the street. I recommend the restaurant/owner look back 5-6yrs at the menu, it was amazing, even the locals ate there a lot and recommended it highly. Not sure why it has continued go downhill over the years. I will however say the hotel itself and the workers (valet, desk, hostess, bar, and wait staff) are a good 5, very attentive pleasant and a joy to be around. The bar itself is great and all the bartenders know their stuff and come up with some great cocktails. My recommendation is start at the bar for a great cocktail and view (oyster bar is very good) but head downtown to another restaurant for dinner. read more

Ocean front seafood restaurant with big portions! We loved the chic aesthetics and upscale yet laidback vibes of this place. The interior is spacious and perfect for large groups or celebratory occasions. The food was great and the waiter was knowledgeable about the long list of wines they offer. We will definitely be back in the summer when it's warm enough to sit outside. read more

Located on the lobby level of the magnificent Beauport Hotel Gloucester, with its charming, warm décor, a relaxed yet upscale ambiance, and delicious food, 1606 provides a stunning Cape Ann dining experience with more to be desired. Chef de cuisine Jon McKechnie elevates & celebrates with a delicious menu filled with pure elegance meshed with an abundance of fragrance, flavors & finesse. Along with an oceanfront deck displaying the gorgeous New England costal views, you simply can't go wrong An absolute pleasure dinning at 1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar and staying at the beautiful Beauport Hotel. Also, a pleasure to meet Chef Jon who took the time to visit every table to personally show his appreciation. Clam Chowder Absolutely delicious with the right flavors & textures. Made with fresh locally sourced ingredients, a must try. Salmon Crudo From their special Valentine's Day menu, this dish screams freshness beyond measure. Absolutely incredibly cut & delicious salmon serviced with blood orange, fennel, Olive lemon confit & radish. The most exquisite flavor profile. Seared Sea Scallops Watch out Chef Ramsay, this Scallop dish just may rival yours. In fact, it certainly does. I have spoken! Seared beautifully & served with Root Vegetables Hash, Duet of Leeks, Bacon Lardons, Celery Root Purée and Beurre Rouge. An explosion of delicious flavors and textures. 14oz Dry Aged NY Strip Cooked beautifully at the perfect temperature of mid-rare, this must be one of the best NY Strips I've ever had. Absolutely glistening & simply seals the deal with an abundance of flavor. Served with Duet of Sunchoke, Foraged Mushrooms, Crispy Shallots & Sauce Au Poivre Croissant Sandwich When you say breakfast sandwich, this is the ultimate & elevated version. A freshly made toasted croissant, perfectly cooked over easy eggs, spinach, tomato, delicious crispy bacon, smoked cheddar cheese & chipotle aioli. Served with a side of thin cut breakfast potatoes. Not saying we were hungover but if we were, this dish was the cure. Eggs Benedict Absolutely had to go with the Benedict. The key to a great Benedict is in the hollandaise and Chef Jon McKechnie simply nailed it with richness & flavor. Cage free eggs, north country Canadian bacon, two lightly toasted English muffin served with crispy thin sliced breakfast potatoes. Cornflake Crusted French Toast Holy goodness French Toast Gods!! Heavenly thick slices of Brioche bread coated in crunchy cornflakes served with a heaping spoonful of warm sweet mascarpone, blueberry compote and sprinkled powdered sugar. An absolute delight and a must try. A special thank you to Chef Jon & his entire staff for delivering the most incredible and romantic Valentine's Day experience to me and my better half. Will be looking forward to our return visit in the near future. read more

This hotel restaurant is an excellent choice for those looking for a special place to celebrate the most precious moments in your life, but for the locals, like myself...it is clearly the #1 choice for brunch, lunch or dinner. I know they probably don't want to be known for having the best burger in Gloucester but they do! Tonight I decided to order the Grilled Salmon entree and was blown away. The atmosphere and views are already second to none, the staff is very attentive and professional but the food will keep you coming back for more. Absolutely love that this hotel has a place in my city and in my heart! read more

Local here... usually eat here regularly over the summer and fall. Tonight was my first experience with the new menu and I found it very disappointing and below standard quality and selection. I'm told, new chef, new menu. No more of those delicious thick Angus burgers and those yummy squishy French fries. Only a smash burger offering and most plates come with only flavorless shoe string fries. I ordered the mussels which was a much smaller portion with hardly any flavor. Previous ones were always spicy and enough to split as an appetizer. Prices have gone up and despite good service and ocean view, I won't be going back unless they improve the menu. Why remove some of the best and most popular items? There are plenty of other good restaurants to choose from in Gloucester without paying high prices for small portions and lesser quality. Such a shame, because for 7 years this was one of our favorite places to hang out. Don't be afraid to explore elsewhere and maybe Beauport will get the message! read more

Good meal, pretty location. Fish was fresh, bright flavors. Rice was crispy and cooked perfectly. Would've liked more greens. Decent for a hotel restaurant, but lackluster service. read more

1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar - Local Tuna Tartare - New American Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

We stayed at the Beauport and ordered some food poolside and also to our room. I'd give it 3.5 stars. I would not go out of my way to eat here based on the food, but its great when you are staying at the hotel, and the seating on the porch with the water views is gorgeous. The lobster roll - $40. We got is cold with mayo. It was good! It comes with a side of sliced potato fries. The roll was a bit dense. The beet salad - delicious except for the beets! They had such a strong clove flavor, it burned my mouth. I had to eat around them. The cheese platter was fun post dinner. We liked the goat and the cheddar, but not the blue. The candied nuts were delicious, as was the candy and crackers (we ran out of crackers before we finished the cheese). It also came with an olive tapenade and something that looked like figs, but was not sweet. read more

We started with a beautiful view on the deck , followed by appetizers. I highly recommend the Burrata. Although this is in a fishing community, I had the best bacon cheeseburger!! I think it was called the 1606 burger. Generous size with cheddar, crispy bacon and a wonderful tomato. The roll was really nice too. The baked haddock was also also a big hit in my group. The service was flawless. I think he said his name was Juan. read more

1606 Restaurant & Oyster Bar - The deck area had great views and also fire pits (not shown here) - New American Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

Usually love to go to this place with my family and we celebrate a loved one who is no longer with us. Called about a reservation and the woman who answered the phone was unbelievably rude. I asked about available reservation times. I wasn't done speaking... she tried to cut me off, made a rude noise, then says "OK, my turn now!" Then proceeds to say they have no reservations at any time of day or night. Doesn't offer any other options or suggestions. No kindness. Like, excuse me? Are you high and mighty? This was so unbelievably rude and made me feel horrible. I'm giving 1 star because you don't know what people are going through and speaking to them like that was uncalled for. read more

To put it simply, everything but view was terrible. It was 82 degrees and we wanted to sit on the patio. We stood at the host stand for at least ten minutes, watched 3 or 4 servers walk by as they averted their eyes and didn't acknowledge us. Finally we're seated and my friend asked if we could move to the area next to us (maybe 3 feet away). Within seconds, a couple left also right next to us and they were sitting in ocean facing rocking chairs. Of course we moved there. The server came by and very rudely said "uh, did a host put you there?" And proceeded to go greet the people next to us (who'd been there maybe a minute.). She brought us water (no ice) and while bringing the neighbors cups filled with ice (again 82 degrees in October). We ordered food and both the tuna tartare and the stuffed clams were awful. Tuna was minimal but the giant rice cake was huge and flavorless. The stuffed clams were fishy and I couldn't eat them. We spent over $120 to look at the ocean and be insulted by terrible service and inedible food. read more

I had the most amazing lunch at 1606 the other day with my sister-in-law! We were greeted by Gail, happy and smiling as always! Everyone else was also just as friendly. It was my sister-in-laws first time there so Gail chose a table by the window. Kathy was so sweet as she walked us over. Vanessa was such a great server! Greeted us right away and brought us some refreshing water. We couldn't decide on what to get and Vanessa was very patient answering all our questions. We both got the smash burger...so good! Then we followed it up with a slice of the coconut cake. I was worried it would be too big and we would need a take-out container but Vanessa explained it's "just the right size" for dessert. And she was right! There was also a delicious scoop of mango sherbet on the side. Yum! We both ate every last bite....really, really good! I also recommend the non-alcoholic beverages. I got the "no proof, no problem", which tasted like a pina colada...very tasty! And then I got the cupcake drink with the coconut cake. They went very well together! Thank you, Gail, Kathy, Vanessa and David for the amazing lunch! My sister-in-law loved it and can't wait to go back. She said it felt like everyone was family there. And she's right:) read more

We have been dining here since the hotel has opened. We have experienced the cooking of multiple chefs.. But the food was great last night!
