Sugar Magnolias — Restaurant in Gloucester

Stopped here after a whale watching cruise for lunch. Came because their lunch menu features fun seafood items while accommodating to people who don’t like seafood.

For being a fishing town you would think they would highlight this menu for tourist especially on the busy weekends. But our biggest disappointment was finding out they only serve breakfast/brunch on the weekends after they had sit us down. Don’t get me wrong the breakfast looks amazing, but I don’t think of having traditional breakfast plates that I can get in any town while visiting a quaint coastal fishing town for lunch or dinner.

Their brunch menu just adds a couple lunch(ish) items which feature only 2 seafood items. We didn’t see anyone order the seafood, which makes you think that they just have them on there because they are leftover stock from the weeks inventory.

Probably won’t be here again unless I go on another whale watching cruise or charter a fishing boat, but I would try their breakfast I ever come back during the...

Excellent! Wonderful staff ,very friendly and outgoing,helpful! My friend and I saw the sign and decided it looked good. We were starving and parched from visiting the area. It was packed and there was one table open. We asked what time they closed, a half hour...! We ordered the first thing on the menu, curry chicken salad and a fruit bowl,iced tea. We got our iced tea, excellent! Bold taste, so refreshing and also a free refill! We are both iced tea snobs 😊 so were very delighted !! Our food was brought out 10 minutes after ordering. It was incredible! Huge bowl of fresh fruit! Blueberries, fresh pineapple,green apple slices,bananas, strawberries, honeydew, cantaloupe,grapes. It also came with a creamy vinaigrette on the side. Everything was fresh and delicious! The curry chicken salad had dried cranberries and almond slices, mayo. It actually tasted like the kind I make at home. $12 for the generous portions! Super friendly wait staff and customers as well! We will...

Truly one of the worst customer service experiences and lattes I have ever had. This place wouldn’t survive in Salem, MA. Menu outside was not completely accurate which made ordering a bit of a challenge. I politely asked the older woman who served us if we could have our money back for the Coffee and Latte we bought. She said, “I mean what’s wrong with it, its a coffee and a latte”. It tasted watered down and wasn’t worth $4 each. Aside from that, terrible service. They gave cash back when we used a debit card and also tried keeping the tip. I then went inside and asked to have the tip removed. Customer service was horrible. I asked for plain yogurt and granola and received both in a 4 ounce cup because usually people have equal amounts of yogurt and granola. Omelette was flavorless. The grilled blueberry muffin was good though. Won’t recommend this place and will...
