Ribchic Piranha

You'll find yourself walking down to the waterfront at The Docks, past the Brewery, where this converted boat is doing something genuinely different for Gloucester's food scene. It's the kind of spot that makes you do a double-take—an actual moored vessel serving serious barbecue. The whole setup feels refreshingly unpretentious; you're eating smoked ribs and grilled meat in a space that's part restaurant, part novelty, entirely worth the trip. The fact it's pulled together a perfect 5-star rating suggests they're nailing both the food and the whole experience of dining somewhere this unconventional.
