★★★★☆ 4.0 Roberta W · Oct 2025

Food was good. Staff very friendly. Chicken wings not good, buffalo sauce was very thick, strange, flavor, nobody in our party liked it and we generally love wings. Chicken sandwiches and fried fish sandwich were great. Also meatballs were amazing!

We've been here twice for food. Each time our servers have been friendly, attentive and prompt - Bri especially! Our food came out cooked perfectly (I always offer my burgers medium rare and I anticipate it coming overcooked due to experience). We came on a busy Friday night when one server (Joe) took care of the entire dining section and the service was still perfect. The atmosphere is pub-like mixed with an upscale casual feel. 10/10 recommend.

Then came the shrimp, seared in a delicate but smoking-hot pan, kissed with flavor. But the dish that truly got me? The shrimp crostini. I wanted more bread just to soak up that divine liquid it was bathing in. That sauce deserved a second act. But i

The Burn is in the old Halibut Point location. Bar area has a good feel. Seating for a dozen and 2 televisions at the bar itself. Also has table seating. Pub fare with a diverse menu. Good drinks and friendly staff. Worth a visit while in Gloucester...
