Restaurants in Gloucester

“Beautiful views and delicious food! What should be better.”

“WOW. I was truly blown away with the quality and taste of this PERFECT Neapolitan style pizza. This pizza trailer is a must try if you are on, or near Cape Ann. There is plenty of free street parking near by while you wait for them to bake it in their brick oven or you call ahead for grab and go. I will certainly be back to try their fresh baked focaccia breads and every other pizza flavor they offer as well. This spot is 10/10 and it might have just become my favorite pizza spot in New England. Can’t wait to see where they end up getting a brick and mortar one day. Must try!”

“The best little breakfast place!!! 10/10 reccommend! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“We had a fabulous time at Oak to Ember. The staff was friendly and accommodating, Matthew and John in particular! The owner/chef Neal has created a fabulous menu. Best culinary experience we've had in a long time!”

“What a special experience last night was! I spent the evening with my 14 year old granddaughter and 7 others enjoying an evening we will never forget. My granddaughter felt the evening was one of the highlights of her summer. The food was unbelievable, the atmosphere was wonderful and our chef and hostess were incredible! I would recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys sushi!”

“I haven't been there yet.I hope we can find out soon or have somebody let us know.”

“We love the atmosphere, service, variety of choice of food, desserts and dining experience. We live along the coast in Salisbury, Mass where there are alot of good seafood restaurants, but Seaport Grill is our #1 place.”

“The food was SO good and our server was super sweet.”

“We have been coming to Gloucester for 20+ years and just happened to find this gem. The food was fresh and plentiful and the staff was out of this world. This restaurant has now been added to our yearly list of places we visit. Thank you for a wonderful experience. A+++++++++”

“The best thing to hit Rocky Neck in a long time! We love this place!!!”

“The food is excellent WE HAD CHICKEN AND Stake every thing that we had is excellent”

“Taco Tuesday has the best choices of fillings. I had a pork belly and a haddock. Both so different and quite tasty. You can’t beat the price. Oh, and one of the biggest selections of tequilas on the North Shore!”

“I received my order from Intershell and I am beyond satisfied with the service, the manner in which it was packed and shipped, it arrived perfectly. Thanks to Rose who assisted me with my order and is very knowledgeable about the products . The shipping fee is not going to sting, it is very fair...try them without concerns..They are great!!”

“best boba tea great customer service”

“Had an amazing dinner highly recommended.. I will definitely be back”

“We were looking for ice cream places and this one popped up eventually! It should be everyone’s first choice! They have such unique and creative flavors. Never had better ice cream in my life. They deserve all of the hype and praise.”

“Do you enjoy buttery pastry and jam? Would you like a sky-high cheddar biscuit, moist on the inside with a sweet little crunch on the outside? Could you use a crumble? Or a sea-salt-sprinkled chocolate chip cookie? We tasted love, butter, and fresh local ingredients in every bite of every treat from Source. If you have ever heard of Gloucester, you are close enough to plan a trip just for the baked goods. We did. We bought a box of goodies before hitting the beach, and we left the beach in time to buy more before heading home. So jealous of the Gloucester locals! I am still dreaming of the hand-pies.”

“Amazing cannolis and cookies. This placed smelled delicious!! Love the little tables on the sidewalk! And the Italian music just added to the experience!”

“Loved it we went on a Sunday night they had some live music sat at the bar The food was excellent it was our first visit about tinder was first class The service was great with other servers serving food really neat oven area where you can sit and watch the kitchen we just moved to Gloucester a year ago and had yet been will be back”

“we had fried scallops, they weren't even edible,tasted like they microwaved them first,rubber,threw both orders away,complained to no avail,won't ever be going back !!!🤬🤬”

“Best restaurant in Gloucester area … hands down”

“Markouk is special! Clearly traditional, perfectly seasoned, priced conservatively and humbly presented, some of the best takeout available in Gloucester.”

“Like our waitress say “ you can’t never go wrong with a Cataplana “ yes patrichia was right Delicious .”

“Oh my. We are from out of town. Immediately, we felt very welcome! The food was delicious. We have the 5 cheese dip, and burgers! It was all amazing. 2 people in our party got cake and it was so good. I ate more than I should have and am sooo full!”

“The Muffuletta Sandwich is amazing!”

“I’ve lived in Glosta close to 50 years and love a good pastry. Caffe Sicilia is my favorite place to go for a pick me up or a good craving. The cannolis IMHO are the best in town and I never discriminate when it comes to food.. Despite often being slammed with customers, the customer service is first rate. Want a good pastry? Think Caffe Sicilia it does not disappoint.”

“I love hidden treasures! If I feel like a real treat….it’s their Thanksgiving roll up! Everyone is so pleasant & helpful! Yummy 🫶”

“Fantastic!!! Grate food and service”

“Best kombucha I have ever had. I will never be able to drink the stuff at the supermarkets again. The stuff at the supermarkets only tastes like vinegar. The stuff made by P.C. Ferments has real flavor to it. I think my favorite is the spruce. Like Mountain Dew with out the sweet. Have with it something spicy with it and tell me what you think. The only downside is if you try it yourself you’ll realize the difference and you might not be able to go back to that supermarket wannabe, poser kombucha ever again. Cotton and coffee got lucky.”

“Fantastic food and service. I would highly recommend.”

“Absolutely amazing food the Clam Chowder was great and i had the BLT crispy juicy bacon and a macaroni salad first started with a toasted blueberry muffin with hot coffee the staff was friendly and always available to serve with a smile. Classic 80’s rock playing subtly in the background. Everyone just getting along like family. Will definitely recommend to everyone !”

“Cafe Bishco ALWAYS has excellent, freshly made food. There are many healthy options & a great variety of smoothies & desserts, too. The staff is courteous & helpful. Located in a building in Gloucester's historic West End, the building is constructed of Cape Ann Granite & in decades long ago was a bank, an antique shop & other businesses. Best of all they deliver!”

“They are a wonderful couple making sour dough bread by hand. They slow raise their dough like the old fashion way and let it ferment slowly. It’s so delicious they run out quickly So put your order in a few days ahead❤️??????”

“Great neighborhood bakery and coffee shop. The lunch wraps & sandwiches are ⭐️ too”

“The Salt Water Grille is NOT closed now. We just had lunch there and it was magnificent. We had seafood over penne and a lobster roll and they were perfect. LOTS of seafood was on the penne. Perfect amount of sauce (not to much nor too little). And the garlic bread was over the moon too. We will definitely be back.”

“Everything- from people to food to atmosphere - it’s the best!”

“I just experienced exceptional customer service! To top it off I got to enjoy a generously filled lobster roll, on a grilled bun, along with fresh chips and a delightful pickle! Today is Tuesday, so it was less than $15! I am so grateful that I treated myself at Surfside tonight, after a long work day!

Parking: Parking lot”

“Such a beautiful spot to have coffee and a pastry while looking out at Gloucester Harbor. They bakery is easy to find ( within The Gloucester House ) plenty of parking and it smells delicious as you walk in. Some many choices for pastry’s , deserts , treats. There’s even a few gluten free items. Anything I’ve had from here has been delicious. I always share though 🧁”

The rooms are impeccably clean. The staff is always welcoming, friendly and helpful. The breakfast is the perfect start to the day.”

“My very particular frappe loving husband said the malted Vanilla frappe he had was the best one in town! Girls working were awesome too!”

“Great night. Food was delicious and waitress was very attentive”

“The regular girl who works here with the blonde hair and day brightening smile is amazing!! She goes above and beyond to make sure everything you order is make correct and most importantly made by someone who looks at it as more than just your daily coffee/drink but as your first pick me up of the day and something to look forward too when you get out of bed. She deserves a raise ??”

“Everything is excellent .”

“How to enjoy life: 1. Go to Pratty's 2. Meet the guys from Wicked Tuna”

“As far as I’m concerned, this is the best Chinese food in Massachusetts. Been in mass almost three years now and every other place I tried sucked or was just not edible. Ocean garden is how Chinese food should taste.”

“wonderful meal great waitress”

“We have traveled 3000 miles in the past five days, hands down this was one of the best places we ate.

The shop has a huge hometown vibe and if you're wanting to experience what being local and how the community takes care of each other, then this is the place to come.

The food was great, nice and fresh and fast.

Wish we lived closer because we would be here often!”

“love the owner and we got our food fast and it was delicious. I've been going to the pilot house for years and will be back again!○○○○○”

“Great restaurant! We have always had great service from Midori and their food is exceptional! The staff is always so friendly.

One warning - google has a delivery service called "Bring me that" attached to the delivery links. Do not use them. They scammed me out of money and I tried to dispute it through Paypal who also wouldn't do anything about it. Definitely do not use "Bring Me That" as a delivery service. Just call Midori and have one of their drivers send it.”

“First time here we’ll be back!”

“I recommend the deep dish spinach, garlic, bacon, sauge, feta pizza!!! Cooked to perfection, lots of flavor, my family absolutely devoured it!! I was so pleased I had to share some with my neighbors....and of course they loved it. Keep up the great work Leonardos!!!”
