About The Highland Tavern

The Highland Tavern is a local gem in Gloucester, tucked away in a neighborhood spot. This converted house-turned-bar welcomes people from all walks of life and is known for its friendly staff and down-to-earth atmosphere. It's a place where heroes gather to share stories and blow off steam, where veterans, people with disabilities, and those just looking to unwind can feel at home. The chef is happy to accommodate vegetarian options and dietary restrictions upon request. Parking is available for all, and the tavern is wheelchair accessible. While it may not be a fine dining experience, The Highland Tavern is a spot where people can come to exercise their right to happiness and freedom of speech without fear of violence or judgment. Visitors often enjoy the simple and decent food, with the option to order off the menu if desired. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with features like darts, a pool table, and a porch that is especially great during a storm. The staff are friendly, and the place feels like a "CHEERS" where everyone can relax and have a good time. Some visitors have found comfort and support here, making it a special place for many.

This is truly the best kept secret. This place rocks, darts, pool table, great atmosphere, and the porch is awesome. specially during a storm!! At 1st it looks like a house, but when you enter, it's a great place for happy hour and like a "CHEERS." Bartenders are awesome and the food is actually simple and decent. I love how you can go off the menu items and order what you want. If they have it, it can be done!
Everything! Friendly atmosphere great barmaid’s!
Friendly and fun bar! I was a little anxious going in, with it being my first time going into the bar being 21 years old, but everyone there were quick to accept me as family! A nice man my mom and I sat by bought my first drink! Also one of the nice bartenders paid for my second one!! Also the food is absolutely delicious. The cook is such a sweet heart and made my Buffalo cheesesteak just how I wanted it! Literally the best Buff Chstk I have every had! Once she said her food...read full review
