The Shack is a popular beachside restaurant that serves both seafood and Southern comfort food. Visitors often experience long wait times, especially during busy summer months when they are open past 8 PM until 9 PM. The restaurant has a casual, laid-back atmosphere with good vibes and a relaxed dress code, making it a great spot to visit during a beach trip. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming, and the owner is often seen greeting customers and helping out.
The breakfast menu is a highlight, with dishes like the Loaded Trash, a flavorful bowl of grits topped with bacon, sausage, cheese, and an egg. Customers also enjoy the honey butter hush puppies, which are complementary and offer a fun, different take on hush puppies. The seafood is very fresh and battered wonderfully, not too thick and well-seasoned. Shrimp and grits are especially popular, tasting like a home-cooked meal that could be made by grandma. Many visitors find that the food is consistently delicious and served quickly, even when the restaurant is crowded.
The Shack also offers outdoor covered seating with benches, perfect for waiting without feeling rushed. Overall, it is known as a cozy, family-owned place where locals go for good, no-frills food served by nice people. It’s a must-try for those seeking a casual dining experience with fresh seafood and comforting dishes.
