Massive, fresh, hot, sumptuous lobster roll and delicious fish and chips, with the best clam chowder we've had here so far. Everything has a taste all its own that you can only get here, a slight edge on other places. Outdoor seating in the front by the parking lot. 5 stars!!! read more

Came here upon getting off the commuter rail station at Gloucester. It's a quick walk and looked cute. However the food options are kind of limited. They only have three tables between their front entrance and few parking spots. Most people seem to come here to buy seafood to bring home rather than eat on the spot. We ordered: fish and chips, lobster roll, and clam chowder. Fish and chips is the highlight here. The batter is so airy and light and crunchy. The fish is juicy and soft and flaky. It's not the most flavorful fish but the texture makes up for it. The lobster roll wasn't as exciting. Meat was a bit rough and had shell bits inside. Bread was a bit dry too. read more

Turner's Seafood Market - Fish and chips, lobster roll - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

Looks like they added to their menu that only used to be beer battered fish & chips. Get the crab roll! Jonah crabmeat made lobster roll style. Don't get the lettuce - not worth the add-on. Mayo with celery is the way to go. Fish & chips served with malt vinegar & ketchup. Perfect size portions for each. No leftovers for average eaters. Located in a fish market Order at the counter on your right and it's ready in about 10 minutes. Seafood counter is separate. A couple of outdoor tables with umbrellas but people also eat in their car since it's a quick bite. Very small parking lot and very limited on-street parking. *Tip: share a meal so you have room for Holy Cow ice cream 1-block away. read more

Found this via Yelp. It was one of the few locations open for business during lunch. It is a small shop with many options where you order at the counter and grab a seat outdoors. There is limited seating and it appears that most people pick up orders based on the traffic. We ordered the clam chowder, lobster roll and crab roll. All were delicious! Glad we stopped by here. Don't forget to dispose your trash in nearby bins. read more

Worth the drive to Gloucester. Vacationing from Northern Virginia and had to venture to Turner's Seafood Market. The fish and chips are the best that I personally have ever come across. Also ordered some oysters. They usually don't shuck them for you, but we paid a $3 fee for the 6 oysters. Worth it. The clam chowder was delicious, great chunks of clams in there. Can you guys open another one in Northern Virginia?!?! This made our day. read more

Turner's Seafood Market - Oysters, clam chowdah, and fish and chips. The fish and chips are out of this world! Everything else was delicious as well. - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

The Fruit de mer is superb! The best I have ever had and I have ordered this many times in other restaurants on the North shore. The atmosphere is lovely-cozy and clean. The hostess was sweet. Our waiter was kind and efficient and the food - delicious. The bartender too makes great cocktails. We'll be back! read more

We decided on a whim to check out this joint. As we had a tour the night before about it being haunted and waitresses seeing a ghost We liked the vibe it has inside. It wasn't too crowded. We did not order any special cocktails. They didn't have a huge list to begin with. Only a few beers on draft. The have the 2nd level ropes off ( where the ghost was seen) we saw no one going up there. ( not even staff). We sat at a booth high top style table. It was cool how they had seating at the bar and it's right by the kitchen. Our service was good. Very prompt and polite. Our friends ordered the calamari app and bread. Which the bread does run $4 but so worth it! So fluffy and freshly made. We all ate something seafood related. I definitely thought bigger than my belly. I had the fried fish sandwich with cheddar cheese on brioche bread. Comes with 2 sides: picked the garlic & buttered spinach and a baked potato. The sandwich did have a side of what tasted like their own house made tartar sauce. One of our guests split a cobb salad and another one ordered fish n chips that they all enjoyed. read more

We hit the market at the lunch rush hour, but had great service regardless. I've eaten a lot of fish and chips and I can say this was easily the best I've ever had. Served hot, super fresh, and delicious. We had the clam chowda with it and loved every bite. My husband had the crab cake sandwich and said it exceeded his expectations (having never had one before). Many locals were stopping in to pick up the day's fresh catch for dinner. We give Turner's a big thumbs up! Thank you for doing what you do! read more

We had lobster rolls to go. Great option to grab and take to the beach. Can order online ahead of time! We got the lobster rolls with butter, and my partner got fries, which were also tasty. He commented that he would have wanted it more stuffed with lobster meat, but to me it was a good ratio of meat to butter toasted roll. The lobster meat was slightly sweet, and I could tell it was very fresh. read more

Turner's Seafood Market - Exterior - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

The location in Gloucester is really a market with.4 tables outside. Have to order inside and wait for your number to be called. Most people pick up and take home. Chowder was okay, fish & chips were excellent. We went back a second time and the batter for the fish & chips was not as good as the first time. Had a funnel cake smell. I think you need to eat it there so it remains crispy. All in all Turners is the place for fish & chips. read more

Wow wow wow l, the best fish and chips I have ever had and I've had them in Scotland. Don't get me wrong. They were amazing in Scotland and Ireland but this place definitely compares, best batter I've ever had. Off the beaten path just a little bit from downtown Gloucester but well worth it. Will definitely be back and make this our go to place for fish and chips when in mass read more

Great service. Fish and chips were fresh, hot, meaty, with just the right ratio of batter to fish. Not greasy, crispy, and the remoulade was perfect for dipping. Good amount of chips as well. read more

The fish is delicious and fresh at a reasonable price, the staff are friendly and effiecient

Food was fine, but exceedingly overpriced for what it was. $30 lobster roll we barely enough lobster to fill a supermarket hotdog bun. Bait crabcake sandwich was a thin bread filled patty on a grilled supermarket hamburger bun. Disappointing all around read more

We totally thought this lobster roll would've been better. Maybe if we got it cold it would've been better, but it was mostly bread and didn't taste like much. It. might be a skill issue though on our part because we don't eat lobster that often and are from Ohio. The people inside got the roll out fast though and were helpful and the place was cute. read more

Wow, take out order I picked up. Ordered the fresh fish and chips they said be ready in eight minutes...it was! Fresh tasty fish crunchy fries perfectly seasoned and the tartar sauce was wonderful. As I looked around waiting for my order, the fish case was full of boat fresh fish, haddock,salmon swordfish and so much more. They have prepared baked stuffed clams that looked amazing some of the homemade sauces looked great, I will be back to purchase fresh shrimp and their homemade scampi butter. Customer service was as I hoped. Fast efficient and friendly. Prices were no different than getting a sub sandwich. Building is as expected a very rustic looking fish shack. We will be back read more

Delicious as always. Fresh flaky fish and light batter. Fries are tasty and the sauces are delish. Always consistent and spot on. Love this place. read more

Turner's Seafood Market has the freshest seafood, the best fish and prepared food selection north of Boston. Be sure to try their amazing crab cakes, delicious oysters rockefeller, and the best cocktail shrimp/homemade cocktail sauce we've ever had. We're so happy that this year they added several new menu items including a lobster roll and fried fish sandwich served on toasted brioche buns, we've tried them all and they are the BEST around! Everyone at Turner's is always so friendly and helpful. They work so very hard, their above and beyond service is appreciated and it's great that they are also open from 9AM-7PM. Plus, working that fryolator in tight quarters, especially in the summer is not easy. We're so fortunate to have this hidden gem right here in Gloucester. Thanks for all you do and please keep trying new things! PS: Although there is no dining availability here, their takeout travels well, imagine that the fried fish 'n chips and fries are still crispy when we get home - that never happens! read more

Food is amazing!! Lobster bisque is the best I've ever had. Service was excellent. Got to have the fresh oysters and mussels too. read more

First time ordering Fish and Chips at Turner's and they were tremendous. The young men behind the counter were attentive and very friendly. They even brought the food out to our car. Very neat, clean and they have an outdoor area as well. Golden brown fish fillets with a light and sweet crunchy coating and very good fries. We will definitely be back regularly. read more

Turner's Seafood Market - Leftovers(two orders) for a little snack later complete with ketchup, tartar sauce and malt vinegar. - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

FANTASTIC fish and chips!! Honestly probably one of the best I've ever had! Batter on the fish is so crispy, and the inside is so flakey and moist. Fries are perfect as well. Amazing and so fresh, will definitely be back and will be bringing friends! read more

First time in the area and went here to grab a quick fresh bite to eat. We grabbed 2 lobster rolls warmed with butter, cup of chowda and fish and chips. The lobster rolls stole the show but here's a video of the infamous fish and chips. Could of been seasoned a little more but overall was good. read more

Wonderful, fresh fish. Great variety and the service is excellent. Definitely stop by when you're in town.

The best chowder I've ever had! The lobster risotto cakes were delectable! Delicious fish n' chips. WILL BE BACK!

Turner's Seafood Market - Fish and chips - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

Wonderful fresh seafood! Great service. Cute place! The prices were very reasonable, too.

Best fish & chips I have ever had. Everything about their fish & chips is excellent. They change the oil daily. Two of the kids there, especially, take their job seriously and ensure they change the oil. The fish is fresh haddock. The batter, I dont need to know the recipe, but it is so gooOOood. Chips are good. Malt vinegar is good. The homemade coleslaw is AmAzing, definitely up there among some of the best ever coleslaw. The homemade tartar sauce is at a whole other level of tarter sauce. Also have no clue what their signature recipe is and don't need to, just know it's one of the best tartar sauces I've ever had. If you're really hungry, get a few of their cooked, chilled wild Gulf shrimp with cocktail sauce. Perfectly cooked and chilled. So good. Also excellent here, their stuffed clams and their lobster risotto cakes. All of their fresh fish is fresh fresh fresh. I met Mrs. Turner at another place in town one evening. Great lady. Just very friendly and warm and fun to talk with. Eat at Turners! Buy your fish at Turner's. Your mouth and belly will thank you. read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside, there is plenty of parking and the staff are great. Only serves fish and chips but well worth it. Freshest fish I have ever had!! read more

This location sells fresh seafood raw. The only cooked thing they sell is fish n chips. Given the Turner reputation and the fact they only make one thing I assumed they must do it well. Ordered 2 fish n chips online around 1150am, it said it would be ready 1201pm. Arrived at noon the staff was completely unprepared- they were saying to each other that no ketsup servings were prepared- and something about the fries, they told me the oil was freshly changed. I'm guessing the oil was also not hot enough. We got our order around 1215 and drove to the waterfront to eat. The fish was saturated in oil- literally dripping everywhere. Fish itself seemed real fresh- but ruined! We ate some because we were hungry and tossed the rest. I had stomach upset all afternoon and evening. I DID message the business via my online receipt where it said "how did we do" never heard back. On a positive note - the staff may have been very disorganized but they were very courteous. read more

They always have fresh seafood, nice staff and crab cakes to die for! Frequent flyers and never any issues.

Best fish and chips in town! Batter is very crunchy but not greasy with high-quality fish inside and perfect fries. The lobster risotto cakes are also definitely worth getting. Staff is also very friendly and enthusiastic. Not sure what's in the batter but makes the whole place smell like fried dough fish and chips 10/10 fries 11/10. read more

Turner's Seafood Market - Took a couple fries already. - Seafood Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

I needed a top notch location to place an order for my father's memorial/celebration of life luncheon party this past May 18; needing a lobster and steamers "shore dinner" for 20 people coming from out of state. There was no room for making a mistake in choosing a place. I was recommended to go to Turner's Seafood and it was the best recommendation I've ever received in my life. They not only delivered to our house because my son's vehicle was too small it turned out, when he drove there to pick up the insulated crates holding the lobsters and steamers, but the owner himself actually delivered everything to our house. Not just the lobsters and steamers, but everything that went with it... The lobster, steamers, melted butter, and broth for the steamers, couldn't have been more delicious according to all the guests. I was in tears when the owner himself delivered all the food to my house to make sure it was on time, when my son couldn't take it himself... I couldn't believe a place would do something like that. They were amazing. - and wouldn't let me give them any gratuity for that kindness. I had to leave this Yelp review so that if you ever want the best seafood in the world and from the absolute best people on the planet to deal with... Don't go anywhere else, but Turner's in Gloucester.. They'll be the only place I use - same says the 20 people who were at my house, from now on. read more

Ordered fish and chips. Fish was succulent, batter was crisp and not overly thick like some other restaurants. Fries were also delicious. The only thing missing was a slice of lemon! read more

Perhaps the best fishmonger in Gloucester. Super fresh and excellent service. They often sell out so go early.

Overcharged Lobsters were tough, probably the worst we've ever had. I would not recommend this to anyone. We won't be back

I've been wanting to order the fish and chips since I first learned Turner's Gloucester now had takeout and finally got a chance this last Saturday. It was everything you'd expect and more, simply delicious, fresh and fabulous! The fish is first rate, coupled with awesome fries and your choice of condiments, none better! read more
