My View of Life on the Dock
‘Tis the season while you’re waiting for your order and happily browsing the prepared case, shelves, and refrigerators, there’s more eye candy. Share the news that Turner’s Seafood Oyster Shell Decorating Contest 2025 is LIVE. check out the contenders in the fish net and the garland festooned with prior year entries.
Turners Seafood operates in several communities. Its Gloucester branch, Turner’s Seafood Market & Fish n Chips is located near St. Ann’s on Smith Street between Maplewood Ave. and Pleasant St., on the same side of the street as Holy Cow ice cream. On Turner’s Seafood main website, you can find descriptions for the daily fresh catch options. And from the “more” option you can select LEARN MORE: FISH FACTS to see a few local video shorts including, Real Local Haddock from the Dock to Your Plate. You’ll see master filleter, Milton, who has honed his decades of artful expertise at Turner’s, inspecting and fish cutting; and then on to Joey for another round of skinning and inspecting the fillets.
**Thanks to Heidi Dallin for recommending their local video production: Turner’s Seafood gets 2 Heidi Dallin thumbs up for their short reel Fun Facts 🙂
Turner’s Seafood shared the short videos on social media, too.
Easy pickup with halibut from Fisherman’s Wharf and a baguette from Alexandra’s. All available veggies were thrown on. Of course, we started with Turner’s oysters again before firing up and topped it off with Captain Dusty’s. Enjoyed by all!
I’ve been craving oysters since the shut down and have not finessed shucking. Turner’s had the perfect solution for my late afternoon snack.
Where were we? Beautiful family on that flyer
If you haven’t guessed by this photo, we were here:
Gloucester Market- Turner’s Seafood, 4 Smith Street downtown Gloucester
My friend tipped me off to the amazing oyster rockefellas they make and we’ve bought salmon and swordfish for special events. We’re lucky to have several places to buy fresh fish and we shop at all of them– though not nearly as much as we should. What is your favorite fish to grill?
Undoubtedly one of the very best bartenders ever!
I spy with my little eye, the one and only, Jack Muniz!
Jack is now tending bar at the pretty fantastic Turner’s Seafood at Lyceum Hall in Salem.
I had a yummy lunch up there the other day…made that much better by being able to chat with Jack.
Great food, great location, great ambience, a great raw bar, and Jack. Win, win, win, win, win.
