Finnigan's Cove Seafood Bar

Doesn’t look like much and it has more of a bar atmosphere and feel; however, the food was fantastic. The oysters were fresh, the asparagus was amazing, and the garlic potatoes perfect. The fried shrimp was okay, they were medium size, and fried a bit too long. You could tell they were prepared in house and not from a package or frozen though. Overall very surprised and satisfied. You can smoke in the “bar” section of the restaurant or you can sit in the separated nonsmoking section.

Prices were reasonable for a family of 5. Our server was very polite and attentive. The food was good. The shrimp, crawfish and crab dip could have been a little hotter in temp but it was really good. We did not like some of the residual cigarettes smoke we could smell from the bar area in the back room. We also weren't clear on what door to enter in so we entered through the bar and whoever was at that door replied as if we should have known better. No biggie. We'll know for next time. All in all, definitely a place I'd visit again.

They don't believe in garnish. The fresh oysters on a half shell were crisp and sweet but a bit small. The crab legs tasted pretty good. The mushroom stuffed with crab meat with cheese sauce was delicious! The shrimp, easy to peel but had an off taste.

Push past the odor of smoke upon entry and get ready for a seafood delight! Fantastic Blackened Crabcake and asparagus with a side of homemade fried chips far exceeded all expectations of a Dive bars Seafood fare in miles and miles from the Bay! This place surely satisfies even a Gloucester fam! Def recommend!

They allow smoking inside, so be prepared to leave here smelling like an ashtray. The atmosphere isn't very family friendly, more of a bar type. I've never tried the seafood because I would think deep-fried pub food would be the safer choice here. Their pickle fries were the only thing that I enjoyed. I would only recommend coming here to get drunk and eat pickle fries.
