It all began in 1993, when two local boys in Gulf Shores, Alabama decided to open up a casual family-focused seafood restaurant on the Gulf Coast. The idea was to create a restaurant where people would feel welcome to be themselves, families could afford to dine out together and strangers would leave as friends. Coastal vacationers demanded that Shrimp Basket expand to provide this incredible seafood value to those unable to be at the beach year round. Today, we’re happy to offer locations across the Southeast for family and friends to feel a part of the beach, dine and enjoy delicious seafood! At the Shrimp Basket, our goal is to make sure that you – our friends – leave happy and satisfied after every visit.
Informal chain outpost offering a variety of fried seafood dishes & an oyster bar.

Ordered shrimp and fries, both tastes weird, small portions for a 15 dollar meal
My date ordered a sprite, it tasted like watered out tv static, I tried it
She got seafood gumbo, there wasn’t any seafood in it, just some small pieces of meat? We couldn’t identify what kind because it was like 4-5 small pieces, tasted very bland we barely ate any of it.
Service was pretty much non existent, the server car by 3 times max. Had to remind them to bring our utensils, there was no communication whatsoever. Not to say the least the booth we were sat in was absolutely filthy, the table was sticky and greasy, the seats were dirty with food crumbs from previous visitors.
First and last time I go to this location or maybe even any of them this was the first shrimp basket I’ve been to. Yikes!
First, the food. Always fresh. Shrimp is good. Tacos still a family favorite. The white fried fish is delicious. Coconut shrimp was a little off this go round with a strange side flavor. Corn fritter was great. Crab cake a bit wet/mushy. Fries perfect. Like I said, mixed bag.
That said, would revisit.
Hey Shrimp Basket Corporate – why don’t you have hush puppies on the menu as an appetizer or side dish? They come with a lot of dishes but aren’t officially on the menu.
I usually come here expecting a good meal and a relaxing time, but this visit was an absolute disaster.
My waitress — I think her name was “K” or “Kay” — spent half the time trauma dumping her personal life and finances on me. I can empathize with people, but not when I’m just trying to enjoy a meal. It was uncomfortable and unprofessional.
After that, I sat waiting 25 minutes for what should’ve been a simple basket of shrimp. When the food finally arrived, it was cold, overcooked, and came with the wrong sides. Completely unacceptable, especially since this has never been an issue here before.
To make matters worse, when I asked to speak to the GM or a manager, “K” came back and said he was “too busy cooking” to come to the table. Really? Too busy to address a paying customer with a legitimate complaint? That’s not just bad service, that’s a failure of leadership.
Final verdict: you lost a regular. I won’t be coming back, and I’ll be letting others know this place isn’t what it used to be.
