    As far as coffee shops go, this one is a little far for me to frequent. However, the seating is ah-may-zing, and I will definitely make the trek out here for the comfy couches to hang out on and do work. There are a lot of fun drink options as well, though I think the plain black coffee is just average. This is a great stop in the downtown Gloucester area with lots of other stores to wander around near it. There's really only street parking around here, but it's not too hard to find a spot. Definitely come here for local cozy coffee shop vibes.

    Such a sweet place in lovely downtown Gloucester. Nothing fancy schmancy. It's the kind of place where you feel at home. A big sofa, local artwork on the wall, good easy-listening music...cuppa Joe or herbal tea and you're all set to work on your laptop, have a chat, read or just soak up the calm energy. Make no mistake: this place ain't boring. It's obviously a popular place among locals who get their caffeine fix or herbal tea accompanied by any of a good variety of pastry. If I'd live here, I'd be a regular. Now I just grab every chance I have to sit down with a cuppa herbal tea and "plain cookie," to soak up the New England feeling of this place.

    The Lone Gull is like a breath of fresh air when it comes to smaller coffee houses on the North Shore. With an ever-revolving list of specialty coffees, and now an expanded menu that includes panini sandwiches, plus an array of delicious breakfast staples and bakery goodies, it's hard to beat the Lone Gull. The staff is great, and have never messed up my order. Depending on how busy it gets, they're cordial, friendly, and chatty. The line can be long, but that's a testament to how awesome the place is. Tip- go in during mid-day to early afternoon and you'll avoid the going to/leaving work crowds. I used to go to the Lone Gull every day when I lived just up the street. Now, not as often because I just don't find myself in the West End portion of downtown Gloucester. You seriously have to try it though, especially if you're a coffee addict like I am. There is no way you'll be disappointed!

    I came here on a rainy day and we were able to order outside and bring our food inside the bar area…read morewhich had plenty of seating. I got an espresso martini which hit the spot. The lobster roll was the main reason we came here and was not disappointed! It was very fillings and it is market priced. I highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Gloucester.

    Went for national onion ring day and for some seafood. I got the bang bang shrimp on salad and my…read morehusband got a whole boiled lobster. The onion rings are low breaded more tempura style and still have some bite left to them, making them easier to eat than ones that have been fried to an inch of their life and come out in one piece from breading that could stand up on its own. These were refreshing in an area where deep fried food can leave you feeling heavy for hours. The bang bang shrimp were delicious, similar battering and frying with a thai chili style sauce. It is not very spicy, but the problem was deciding on what kidn of salad dressing to get with it on a salad. I recommend not getting the salad and just an order of shrimp with ranch. The salad was romaine and parm shavings. No other vegetables to speak of, but the shrimp was phenomenal. Additionally the lobster comes with butter, wet naps and an additional tray for the shell as you work your way t hrough. A nice setup, a nice view, and good food.

Their menu is centered around the almighty biscuit - biscuits/scones are one of my favorite ways to inhale carbs but they can run on the too bread-y side of the spectrum. These were fantastic: delicate crumb, beautiful golden color, and sturdy enough to hold in all the sandwich fillings. I went with the classic breakfast egg sandwich (scrambled egg, cheese, and arugula) and added sausage. This was one of those rare situations where the bread vehicle outshined the fillings. The egg, while nice and fluffy (and tasted like real egg instead of the diluted mix I've had elsewhere), could have used some more seasoning and was begging for a healthy dollop of ketchup or hot sauce. The only thing that came through strongly was the salt crystals on the top of the biscuit. Tried a bite of my husband's chicken salad on a cheddar/onion biscuit and had the same reaction - the biscuit overpowered everything else. Not that I'm complaining. The bakery is on a side street off the busier, more touristy Rogers Street. I had this idea too late but next time I'm in Gloucester, I'd take a biscuit sandwich to the beach area along Western Ave. The cafe itself is very, very cute, with little nooks and crannies everywhere for seating and even a comfy looking couch. Bathroom was clean. We found a parking lot one street over in the other direction.
