Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Seafood restaurant at Aquarium Way, Long Beach, United States.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. is a seafood restaurant in Long Beach that serves shrimp in many styles, including fried, coconut-crusted, and mixed with other seafood in hearty portions. The menu keeps shrimp at its center while offering different cooking methods and flavor combinations.
The restaurant opened in December 2010 and brought its film-themed dining concept to the waterfront location near Long Beach Aquarium. This launch marked the arrival of this dining brand in this California port area.
The walls and shelves display props, photos, and keepsakes from Forrest Gump, weaving the film into your dining experience. This film-inspired decor creates a playful connection between the meal and the movie story.
The location sits right on Aquarium Way and is easy to reach from the waterfront promenade. The place tends to get crowded during peak weekend hours and the tourist season, so a weekday visit works better if you prefer a quieter experience.
Staff members engage guests with questions and facts about the film Forrest Gump during service, turning your meal into more than just food. This interactive element transforms each visit into a conversation between cinema and cooking.
