Shrimp Shack

I ordered the lobster roll online for a dinner pickup. I arrived early, parking wasn't terrible. My food came out almost right on time (if not on time). They were not busy at 6:00p.m. I ordered water and white wine and took my food to the beach lookout. I saw a comment or two about the bread not being soft but mine was really soft. Similar to a less garlicky Texas toast bread. It came with a side of butter and I got a side of chips. It was really filling though some of it might be the bread. For $42 (lobster roll only) I thought it to be a little expensive considering full entree meals run you that other places but it was an experience, somewhere new, hadn't had a lobster roll before, and it was good so I'm not too mad at the price. I enjoyed my wine, my lobster and my view. I'd definitely go back and try other menu items.

I see all these great reviews for the lobster rolls. That was not our experience. We ordered a lobster roll to share about mid afternoon. Very expensive. It was the most nothing lobster roll I’ve ever seen. I think there was about four bites total of lobster in it. It didn’t come up over the edges like you usually see on a good lobster roll. It didn’t even come up to the edge. Just about four bites. The guy in the shack acted like he would rather be anywhere else than there. I knew when I saw it that my hubby wasn’t going to be happy, with what we paid for it. He wasn’t. Don’t believe the hype!

I have eaten here 2 summers in a row if that says anything. This is a walk up counter in Seaside where all the other food shacks and shopping is located. You order, pay, find seating outside and when your food is ready they call out your name & come find you. I loved the very pricey Lobster roll both summers and this year I ate the best lobster Mac & cheese ever! Great key lime pie too… Yes it is expensive - but it is vacation at Seaside. 🤷‍♀️
I’ll be back !

Oysters and 1/2 lb of steamed shrimp were good. Plenty of outdoor seating.

The gumbo was amazing along with the potato salad, crab cake, and steamed shrimp. We were looking forward to experiencing the lobster melt and lobster mac, unfortunately they had already sold out for the day. We will have to come back next time we are in town.

I seen all of the good and bad reviews but everyone seemed to love the lobster roll so that’s what I got. We sat there for maybe 5 minutes and it was out. Food was amazing. I paid 45$ for my lobster roll, bag of chips, and a drink. Very expensive but who cares when ur at the beach. Highly recommend.

It was delicious, the only thing that would’ve made it better was the bread. It was on the dry side, I prefer softer bread with my lobster rolls like a garlic lightly toasted bread. For anyone wanting to know the price range my lobster roll was $38 today but it depends on the day, most menu items are around the $20 range.

If you want it fresh, you can’t go wrong with shrimp shack. They have the best stuff for the area. If you want the best on 30A try goat feathers. That’s my preference for our seafood gumbo if we didn’t catch all that we needed that day to make our own.
