Great service and food! We got seated right away! All five people in our parry enjoyed their food!

i was looking for a brunch place open in gloucester on a sunday at 1pm, and george's restaurant & bar 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 read more

George's Restaurant & Bar - florentine benedict & blueberry pancake with real maple syrup - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

George's came up as a local spot! So glad that we went for breakfast. Got greeted immediately, however had to wait for about 15 minutes because George was very busy and packed. Enjoyed looking at the photos and decorations on the wall. We sat at the bar and met couple of very nice ladies who ended up giving us additional local spots to check out during our stay. We ordered Nutella fresh toast, crab cake Benedict and George's Combo Breakfast. We devoured them - read more

We had about a 30 minute wait on a Sunday morning. Not too bad for four adults and a baby. The staff at George's is absolutely the best. 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! read more

Cute little spot in Gloucester! Good food - pancakes were a 10! Breakfast boats were also a hit. They don't take reservations, but we put our name on the list and it wasn't too long of a wait. read more

After driving by George's numerous times, we finally came by for breakfast and had an amazing time! George's is so welcoming and cozy, and they have a really fun and extensive menu. I was so excited to see tons of vegetarian options, too! The pancakes are an absolute must - especially if you get them loaded (they offer chocolate chip, Oreo, strawberry, etc). Great service, outstanding food - we will definitely be back! read more

George's Restaurant & Bar - Avocado toast, hash, and jumbo chocolate chip pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

My husband and I sat at the bar last night and Kaylee waited on us. She was so nice. She made an excellent pear martini for my husband and a margarita for me. We started with the arancini balls appetizer which were hearty and delicious. Then we shared the steak tips dinner that came with mashed potatoes and a medley of fresh vegetable, but we substituted the potatoes for onion rings. All were very yummy! Then for dessert, my husband had the apple pie with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. That too was good but he said the pie should have been served warm not cold. Their prices are very reasonable, too. We will be back to this cozy establishment that serves great food! :) read more

George's is our go-to place over the summer. Cozy diner feel, a menu with a ton of variety, and yes -- coffee in a big diner mug! While the wait can get long on the weekends especially over the summer, George's has a great wait-list app that shows you where you are in line and your estimated time to get a table. We have young kids, so try to avoid this by just going early (by 8am). The wait staff is really nice, they always bring fun sticker projects out for our kids. And, the owner Zorba, is always there and hustling -- you can tell that he takes pride in his business and ensures they maintain their friendly ambience and top-notch service. read more

Tip: ask to sit at the bar if all tables are taken, they serve food at the bar too. The avocado toast was pretty good, eggs poached well but too much balsamic and not enough avocado. The avocado was hidden at the bottom of the toast and was more of a spread like guacamole... no slices of avocado. I'd go again but get something else. Service is great ambience is that of any other breakfast restaurant near here. It is George themed so look out for Regina George, George Clooney, George Washington on the walls. read more

Full disclosure: We are not locals, but we come to Gloucester every year. George's is one of our "must" visits. What they are not: fancy, pretentious, expensive. What they are: a solid choice with terrific food, great service, reasonably priced. The clever decor with assorted "Georges" never fails to bring a smile. Kim, the bartender, was attentive and made us feel like she was glad we were there. My husband got the baked haddock; I chose haddock picatta. Wow! And Wow! Looking forward to our trip next year! read more

haddock Piccata was really good. First bite surprised with a sour taste but then loved it. we also got chicken fingers with fries. Chicken was juicy and cooked right. my picky toddler loved the fish and chicken. read more

Breakfast just fair, parking terrible. Wait staff good. I won't go back found someplace better

What an amazing restaurant. It's a must when you're in Gloucester. The food was amazing and the staff were just so friendly.

Found this hidden gem whilst roaming Gloucester! Perfect pop-in place for breakfast! I heard they have Prime Rib once a week! read more

The food is ok but the service needs to do better. Only one waitress had a good personality. I think the ones that had been there for years need to get a new course on etiquette and how to carry themselves, very staunch with no manners. No thank you for coming or "how was your meal" Parking is scarce, the ambience is nice. I would rate them a 2 star for the poor service. read more

Super friendly and attentive service! Patient with the kids. Great food. Classic rock playing. My kind of place! read more

Love this breakfast spot! Points that it's a Boozie breakfast spot. Seasonal breakfast & drink menu for the win. It's all about the George's which makes for a fun drinking game. Creative menu includes creative variations and crab cakes Benny's to experience local flavor. The French toast, waffle and pancake options made my husband drool. Highly recommend this spot anytime you're in the area! By the way the staff is super friendly and makes great suggestions! read more

Excellent brunch and great service. Food was delicious, good coffee and drinks. There was a bit of a wait on a Sunday but it was worth it.

Had never been here, before. Heard it was good. Walked in with my elderly mother, who has to use a cane. Wait staff did not seat us right away, despite fact that there was a clean table for two, right in front of us, and seeing there was an elderly person, using a cane. Waitress took our order and brought coffee, but then the absurdly long wait for our breakfast began. After nearly 30 minutes, we had to leave, without having eaten, so we could make a doctor's appointment. Will not be returning. read more

What a wonderful place to eat. Great atmosphere and food. We will be back when we are in the area again.

We chose prime rib Friday for our first time here. Our timing was lucky since right after we arrived customers had to wait for a table. We had prime rib and filet mignon. Both were tremendous. My husband is still raving about his. Sides were good and our gin and tonics were enormous. Prices compared to the same menu choices elsewhere were very reasonable. One of the regulars recommended coming back for breakfast and we will. Atmosphere was casual and warm. Kaylie, our waitress was attentive and very helpful. read more

George's Restaurant & Bar - Steak & Cheese omelet boat. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

You walk in and know you're in good hands. Busy but organized, true professionals in the kitchen, waitstaff and greeter. Food looks and tastes outstanding and judging by the personal convos between staff and customers there are lots of regulars which is always a good sign. The savory or sweet conundrum is real here because the egg dishes are delicious but I was lusting after the pancakes coming out of the kitchen and the special French toast had something to do with blueberry donuts and I just couldn't handle it in the moment. Will definitely be back read more

Nice breakfast location enjoyed the meal and had very good service. Nice to find a locals place to eat.

Wait was a curate and easy (they text you when table ready). Every staff we encountered was friendly, helpful, and hustling to be efficient. Tons of tickets printing to the kitchen but handled efficiently and as a team and food came out timely, hot, and portions were big. So stuffed! An overall great experience and even though it was about a 15-20-min walk from harbor to Georges, we're already planning to go back tomorrow too. read more

Food was absolutely amazing. Service couldn't have been any better and the setting was amazing. Thank you for the wonderful breakfast while we were on vacation and the weight wasn't too long and we had time to walk around and see the shops before eating and then had the best breakfast and awesome Customer Service And some of the best bloody Mary's I must say. read more

Came here based on the Yelp reviews, so glad we did! The owner was busy helping everyone, really nice to see! Friendly service, fun atmosphere with famous George's pictures as decor. Long wait for food on a Sunday morning but well worth it. Chicken Benedict for me, cheesesteak boats for hubs and a cinnamon roll pancake to share. Everything was excellent, we were stuffed! We will def return on our next Gloucester trip. read more

Reasonable prices and huge portions! Everything was delicious however, the homestyle potatoes were a tad salty but honestly not too bad. Service was great and food came out in a reasonable time. This place is a bit cozy but is super clean all around. read more

No complaints about George's at all. The servers are all extremely friendly and attentive. Their prices are great. We came here for both breakfast and dinner and both times were great! This is definitely the kind of hometown dinner that really should have that world famous status. Loved it! read more

One day in July, I had breakfast here with some friends -- their avocado toast, which was awesome. The food and service were so good that I ended up going back for lunch that same day, with a different friend.
