Bubba's Fish Shack, Seafood restaurant in Surfside Beach, United States.
Bubba's Fish Shack is a seafood restaurant on South Ocean Boulevard in Surfside Beach, South Carolina. The dining room has wooden tables and fishing nets on the walls, with large windows facing the street below.
The restaurant was opened by the Divine Dining Group as part of their push into South Carolina's coastal dining scene. It grew alongside Surfside Beach itself as the town developed into a beach destination.
The restaurant follows Calabash-style cooking, a method from the coastal Carolinas where fresh seafood is lightly breaded and fried in a simple, unfussy way. Ordering one of these dishes gives a direct taste of how people along this stretch of coast have eaten for generations.
The restaurant sits right on South Ocean Boulevard, making it easy to reach on foot from the beach. It serves lunch and dinner daily, and groups can book ahead through a dedicated reservation line.
The kitchen puts together seafood platters that pair fish, shrimp, and oysters with hush puppies, small fried cornmeal balls that are a staple of Carolina coastal cooking. Many visitors from outside the region try hush puppies for the first time at a place like this.
