Surpassed all expectations!

Picked up a carry out of the smelt and it was so full of bones you couldn’t eat it. Called for a refund to my credit card and was told they wouldn’t unless I drove the 30 minutes back to the restaurant. Rude staff, will not be back.

Pleasantly surprised and impressed by how great this place is. It's hard to find a good seafood place that is so clean, friendly and reasonably priced. Highly, highly recommend Chums

The food at this place is excellent! We have ordered several plates and each one was tastier than the other. Can’t wait to order again!

Hidden gem that needs to be discovered! Finally got to Chums Shrimp Shack and so glad. Ordered a pound of breaded shrimp, onion rings, fries and coleslaw for 2 diners. Plenty of food.. Decor is nothing fancy (clean and orderly) and heavy wooden tables but good match for the food. Perfect for on a beach or waterfront. Getting back to the food. The shrimp were excellent - large, meaty, fresh tasting with a crispy, right amount of breading. Came to the table hot. You pick your sauces. Basket of Fries were tasty - had a unique crispness which we enjoyed. Left there very happy, great food, staff helpful and wide selection. We recommend trying this place. I know we will be returning soon for sure!

I have to catch names next time but I definitely imagine those are the two guys running the show all the time. My son is 7 and the cook and front end server were really good with my boy, pointing out Sponge Bob characters like crabs and plankton. Decorated awesome. Food was absolutely spectacular. I ordered the surf and turf Philly which is a work of genius. The bacon cheese fry. Cheese burger. Neapolitan ice cream. Coleslaw. Portions are BiG for the money. This place should’ve been on the frosted hair sunglasses guys show that drives topless visiting great eat spots. This joint is imo much much better than Big & Littles in Chicago. And they got all kinds of buzz. This place is my spot at least 2x a month probably Fridays. Also, friends, Red Lobster is going under soon. Be extremely grateful this restaurant exists, please. Eat here.

Stopped in for lunch and ordered lobster rolls and a spicy chicken sandwich with a side of hush puppies. The food was great, but for two sandwiches and two drinks it came out to be a $50 meal, which is way too much for fast food.

Big change in the fried shrimp from a month ago. New ones are pathetic and embarrassed me after I vouched for the place.
