Relax in the sunshine while you slurp down a milkshake or nibble on French fries at the Pierside Snack Bar at Battleship Cove. This seasonal concessions counter offers many of the same great deals you'll find in the Wardroom Grill and the Carousel Cafe.

Cook Harold Nye shoveled out more than 4 million meals during his wartime service on USS Massachusetts.

JUST $4.95
Battleship Cove's $4.95 Group Lunch Special is a great deal for groups. This fantastic value includes a choice of a 3oz hamburger or cheeseburger served with French fries, cookies and a choice of beverage. Just make your reservations for the lunch special with the ship's secretary at the same time that you make arrangements for your group's visit. Then upon arrival at Battleship Cove the group leader should proceed to the wardroom snack bar to make payment for his entire group, and arrange for a convenient lunch time. 10 person minimum.

"STIRRING" MEMORIES: Stirring. Baking. Broiling. Frying. Former BB59 cook Harold Nye did it all on USS Massachusetts. Enlisting in the Navy early in World War II, Mr. Nye served in the galley on board USS Massachusetts and continued his relationship with the ship as a lifelong supporter of the museum that preserves her.

As a member of the board of directors and as a private citizen, Mr. Nye promoted the museum throughout the region for nearly four decades. Today, visitors can listen to Mr. Nye's sea tales in the BB59 galley on one of the many oral history monitors he generously funded.

Incidentally, for the curious-minded, Mr. Nye privately informed us that, yes, if you knew the right people, you could get a pizza on board! Guess what? You still can!

VISIT FOR FREE: Did you know that you can visit Battleship Cove for free all year for as little as $35? And that's just one of many perks enjoyed by Museum Members. Follow this link to learn more!
