Mostly clean rooms, no frills, just a place to sleep...might i say for dirt cheap in Gloucester. Been going there for several years...they finally got rid of the shag carpet! Not exactly a place to bring kids, but i did bring mine and they could appreciate the differences. Those of you who come for the touristy part- you will get exactly the ...

Always stop there for our 1st or last cocktails

We have been spending weekends at Gloucester for several years now. The Cro's Nest is a favorite of mine and my wife's each and every trip. We know no one inside and there seem to be different people everytime...but a good time is always had and everyone is pleasant and polite. Come on in have a seat, play the Mass lott, have a highball, ...
I must start by telling you that I did not stay in a room. My only intent was to experience the people, and the atmosphere in the bar. As far as the people........the best you will find anywhere! The atmosphere was everything that I was hoping for in a fishing community. I was looking for a down-to-earth place where the people would be as down ...

working man's bar
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/01/08
We stopped in for lunch, which it turns out they haven't served in years. Joined some of the saltier patrons for a beer at 11:30 am. Everyone was more than pleasant, but this is not a tourist joint, it's a hard drinking bar for hard working (when they can get it) guys. Worth it for the story, if nothing else.
VERY RUDE PEOPLE, UNCLEAN, I HAVE NEVER FELT SO UNWELCOMED IN A PLACE EVER. THE EMPLOYEES WERE JUST AWFUL, WILL NOT RECOMMENED TO ANYONE, AND I WAS SO EXCITED TO FINALLY GET TO VISIT, VERY VERY DISAPPOINTING.

Instead of being trapped in Boston for the weekend because of work....I took the time to spend 2 nights at the Crow's Nest....$55 dollars a night for all the things you need in a room. People were very friendly and kind, and did not treat you as a tourist.....Delaneys Pizza was awesome.....the beer was cold nd the service was great.....to bad they did not have at least a small seafood menu on the weekends to top it off
Went to the Crow's Nest today with family from out of state. 2 from California and 1 from Texas and us 2 from Wilmington, MA. It didn't look like it did in the movie but it did look exactly like I pictured it while reading the book before the movie came out. All of us had an awesome time. The regulars didn't treat us like tourists at all. They welcomed us like we were there every week. Can't wait to go back.
The Crows Nest is famous for it's contribution to the Hollywood movie, The Perfect Storm starring Mark Walhberg and George Clooney. The amtopshere and friendly staff including owner Mary Ann Shatford, treat you like a star and make you feel like a regular.
Unfortunately, the lunch menu is not available anymore but I was fortunate enough to ...
My husband and I spent our honeymoon in Rockport, but had to check out The Crow's Nest during our trip. We had the most fun there than anywhere else! The locals were SO friendly. I found it funny though everytime tourists came in, took one horrified look around and walked out. They obviously were expecting something more upscale, stuffy and ...
