Clam chowder is to die for. Good variety of beer selection, steak tips were the 5/5 item on the…read moremenu. My meal was 5/5, clam chowder to start and the ceaser salad with steak tips was the best meal on the table. Wife ordered house salad with shrimp which were fine but nothing special, her Pino grecio white wine was her fav of the meal, oh and she loved the clam chowder, all 4 of us got that. Friends got flatbread meh, and haddock and rice which was fine. Desserts were ok, the mud pie sounded good but I was full. the strawberry tiramisu just sounded weird so we did not get any. Price was very nice as well.

The bartender knew all the local customers coming in, there was a woman in the back hand shaping burger patties. At one point, one of the waitress brought in 3 big bags of tortillas. You can tell this establishment is a small, local business. The food was SO GOOD too. Honestly some of the best nachos I have ever had. They hand fry their own tortillas which meant the chips didn't get soggy. The clam chowder and mac n cheese tasted gourmet. And my partner said it was one of the best burgers he's ever had. Definitely a must go to spot if you are ever in Gloucester.

The lady working, there was amazing to us. The place smells so good for five pool tables. You can play at your leisure on great beer. Lots of history, and I would certainly come back and I was invited to so I plan a trip so I can't say enough good things about a place that is as real as it gets where they make you feel that you're already at home!

Great location and atmosphere. Had a great night listening to the bands. 10/10 for waiter Finn.read more

i was looking for a brunch place open in gloucester on a sunday at 1pm, and george's restaurant &…read morebar seemed to be the only place open (in winter season). i am so glad i found this place! it's on a corner after the main rotary, street parking available. lilly & other staff all provided excellent service and a warm welcome. i tried their florentine benedict with a single jumbo blueberry pancake. their florentine benedict is so scrumptious, loaded with spinach & tomato and perfectly poached eggs. the blueberry pancakes are huge and completely stuffed with blueberries. i was so pleased when i asked if they had real maple syrup, and the gentleman who served me went and got it right away. and they don't overcharge for it like most places! they also have plenty of drink options available which all sounded delicious. florentine benedict 9.5/10 blueberry pancakes 10/10 overall, the meal was absolutely delicious, clearly a hometown staple for locals, and for good reason. not only that, they're reasonably priced and i will definitely return when in the area for breakfast or brunch. ambiance: 4.8/5 food: 5/5 drinks: n/a services 5/5 george's restaurant & bar: 5/5

They were very proactive on how we wanted to be seated with a seven month old. I enjoyed two of their bloody Mary's! One was actually the jalapeño bloody Maria with tequila. And the other was the Tabasco spicy bloody Mary. Oh yeah, the food was awesome! I had the crab cake Benedict. My wife had a huge omelette. My son had the breakfast burrito. Everything was great! Also, it's walking distance from where we were staying. A great plus for Gloucester. Don't miss this place for breakfast or lunch when you come to Gloucester!

What a fun experience it was to enjoy igloo dining at this venue. We had been to this restaurant in…read more2020, at the height of the COVID pandemic and ate in one of the igloos. I'm happy to report that the igloos available now are so much nicer, big, bright and clear and you can enjoy all of the beautiful water views. There is however a fee of $15pp for this experience. We dined with some friends and everybody enjoyed their cocktails and food. I started with the bang bang shrimp appetizer. What a bargain for $18! There were maybe 8-10 very large shrimp, and they were perfectly cooked. The fried haddock/chips was great, fish was crispy and delicious, but unfortunately the fries were not good and did not match the caliber of the food served. Limp, and probably were hanging around under a heat lamp :-( Overall, service was OK. Food arrived fairly staggered and one entree was very late. The runner confessed and said he dropped the plate and it had to be remade. It would have been nice if the server informed us. Despite the minor service hiccups (very young and likely inexperienced staff), the atmosphere and food are worth it. Give them a try!

We went whale watching and then decided to have a local meal. My colleague chose this restaurant,…read morewhich is probably the highest-rated on Gloucester. It was incredibly crowded on Friday night, with wait times starting at half an hour, but the food was just average. Good restaurants are rare in small towns. 1.5 lb Steamed Lobster: The lobster was very cheap, only $32 for 1.5 lbs. It was relatively fresh, with firm meat and some paste, but not particularly plump, especially the claws, which were rather empty. Halibut Risotto: The halibut meat was coarse and tough. The risotto was cooked more like porridge than a firm, undercooked texture. Clam Chowder: Extremely salty. Truffle Fries: Quite ordinary. The fries were a bit cold, and it had black truffle and Parmesan cheese, but that was just about it. Pasta Chix Caesar Pesto: A seasonal dish, served to the kids at our table. The pesto had a strong raw nutty flavor, and the pasta was overcooked; no wonder the kids didn't like it, lol. Prickly Pear Spritz: It tasted like no alcohol, and no pear aroma; it was just like a glass of berry lemonade... and it was even served in a plastic cup--so unrefined!
