I will drive and pay the toll every time to come eat here.. from the fish to the cole slaw. Everything we had was fresh and delicious. Their menu is similar to skrimp shacks but their execution is by far way better. This spot is a hidden gem that needs to be highlighted more. read more

I like bubbas as a franchise. However this one in Yorktown will disappoint you to death, might be the most rude staff I've seen , EVER!

Someone recommended that I try the fish sandwich. I came here for a take out lunch. I ordered hush puppies, fish sandwich with fried flounder and steamed shrimp with a side of cole slaw. The other person in my party ordered the fish sandwich with fried flounder and fried shrimp, a whiting taco, and a shrimp taco. The sandwiches had large pieces of fish and thick shrimp. The Bubba sauce which is a remoulade had a little heat to it and was just right for the sandwich to give it moisture and flavor. The food is made to order so allow time for it to be prepared after you order it. Anyway who wants fried food that has been sitting around. The wait was not very long. There are about 9 tables with a window counter. It was busy but not crowded when we went. The service was attentive. The bags with the food were brought directly to us rather than having us come back to the counter. read more

Bubba’s Shrimp Shack - storefront - Seafood Near Me - York, Virginia

Food: My husband and I went to Bubba's Shrimp Shack for Valentines day. We both ordered 24 shrimp, French fries, sweet potatoes fries, and rice pilaf. I noticed some shrimps were small and some were medium. They used to be jumbo shrimp. The rice pilaf was too mushy. They used old and dark cooking oil. It made the shrimp dark in color and salty. Please throw away the cooking oil when it's in the fryer twice in a row. Use jumbo shrimps. We r paying $21.99 for 24 shrimps and sides for $3.49 each! Make our money worth it! read more

I have been to Bubbas multiple time and the past two times the batter used to make my catfish was extremely salty. We told the waitress and she said her shrimp that day was very salty as well. They remade the meal for me but again was very salty. I have complained about the green beans as well being to salty in the past. They have lost our business due to this reason. Manager/ owner never on property when we had a complaint and asked to speak to him. Used to be s good place. read more

Food always fresh and delicious. Great service. Very clean and welcoming. Will definitely consider coming back to this place.

It's a basic walk-in & order. They bring it to your table and the fish is absolutely the freshest. My favorite is the catfish with shrimp and it's always been very good and correctly cooked. The prices are good, considering. Staff is always friendly and efficient. And statis quo? I'll continue to include them in my favorites read more

Lots of variety available. The oyster po boy comes with a fantastic remoulade thats greatvon everything. Crispy fries and hot food. Will go again. read more

Spending the night in the area and decided to try some place different. Bubba's had a good rating so I went there. The shrimp, fish and chips were good and hot. Also comes with two hush puppies. Service is very friendly and the ambiance is small and cozy. Lots of take out orders from the locals. Good for small groups to eat in. If you do not ask for the fish options you get catfish. I chose whiting and it was hot and crispy. The house made sauce is good too. read more

Friendly service, good portion sizes. Crab meat is placed on top of the soup. So, you get a good idea of how much crab you are getting. The fried oyster platter came with three sauces, tartar, cocktail and the third seems like a mixture of mayo and Old Bay Seasoning. read more

We don't normally drive to Gloucester, but since the comic book shop Jerseys was a shop away, I guess it was meant to be. When I hear Bubbas shrimp I think of forest gump lol. The inside is spacious and clean. The employees are extremely nice and helpful. The hubs and I perused the chalkboard menu. We ordered the catfish, shrimp, and crab cake sandwich. It came with fries and hush puppies. Since they were made to order we picked a table and the waiting game began ;) One of the employees brought our food and asked if we needed anything else. She was great and filled our waters. The catfish was freshly fried, thinly coated, and seasoned. I would say that it was a bit heavy in the salt area. Shrimp was thick and plump. Fries were standard. I think the winner would be the crab cake sandwich. There was no filler which is great. The hush puppies were really good with a crunchy exterior. If we are ever in the area again this would be the stop to satisfy your seafood cravings. read more

Horrible undercooked seafood. Place was dirty . Roaches everywhere. Rude owner. Stay away.

I am soo happy that I did not order food from this place today!!! My sister and brother-in-law had lunch-I opted to look in the nearby shops. When my BIL was in the bathroom a huge RAT came out of a hole ran around his feet and returned to the wall. NOT COOL! read more

I LOVE Bubba's Shrimp Shack! Located in the White Marsh plaza, Bubba's menu offers baskets (shrimp, shrimp & catfish, catfish, whiting, flounder, oyster, crab cakes, clam strips, scallops, and pollock), seafood by the pound, sandwiches (whiting, catfish, shrimp & catfish, shrimp, flounder, crab cake, clam strips, super chicken, and pollock), soups, salads, various sides (fries, mac & cheese, baked beans, green beans, cole slaw, hush puppies, apple sauce, and fried okra), and kid options. The hubs and I was in the area, and we ordered a Shrimp Basket to share, which included fries, slaw, and 2 hush puppies. It also came with 2 containers that were generously filled with cocktail and their spicy tartar sauce. The shrimp were not heavily battered, but they were thin and fried perfectly. The size of the shrimp was also surprisingly large - they were so plump, succulent, and juicy - they were probably one of the best fried shrimp we've had in a while! The sauces also pushed them to another level, too! Fries were forgettable, but the slaw was not too overdressed and was a perfect complement to the shrimp. The hush puppies were crispy, and I liked that they had whole kernels within. I'll definitely be back! I'd love to try out their fried fish next time and check out their other side items. Staff were so friendly and welcoming; one of the chefs came out and checked upon each of the tables to make sure that everyone was enjoying their food - a nice touch! The place is super clean, even the bathrooms, and cutely decorated. Plenty of parking in the plaza lot. +delicious fried shrimp! +hush puppies and cole slaw! +friendly staff! +located in the White Marsh plaza +plenty of parking in the plaza lot read more

Absolutely delicious food. Yes, fried. No, not greasy, if that makes sense. Carefully made and drained, and if you need an option, they offer steamed shrimp that is even better than their delicious fried ones. There are simple salads offered too. The iced tea is strong and delicious. Very nice simple service, and the ambience is what you could expect of a shrimp shack, but very clean. read more

Bubba is a solid choice for a quick meal. The food is good, not great. If you are seeking an upscale dining experience, Bubba's is not you choice. The restaurant offers fast food seafood served quickly. The staff is super friendly. read more

The shrimp, whiting, fries, slaw, and hush puppies were great! The service was great and I'm going to assume it was the owner because she was so happy. The food was hot and fresh and definitely tasted like they made it. read more

Bubba’s Shrimp Shack - Whiting basket - Seafood Near Me - York, Virginia

Do not understand why catfish basket is suppose to include two sides, but when I looked at the receipt it was $1.00 more than the price on the board. I was told that the sides are 50 cents each. So a catfish basket and an order of steamed shrimp cost $42.99. They just lost a customer who has eaten there many times over the years. read more

Absolutely the best fried Catfish and Shrimp I've ever had. It is cooked to a delicious exterior crunch, but is tender and moist on the inside. The hush puppies were incredible. They were little crunchy balls of cornmeal and dough, with whole corn kernels rolled in. They had a very slight touch of sweetness that balanced the kick in the remoulade sauce (they call it Bubba sauce) perfectly. Their fries were served fresh and were very good. I have no complaints but the coleslaw lacked flavor and could have benefitted from some extra bite and creaminess, perhaps some vinegar or heat, but maybe that is a regional taste thing. My mouth is watering thinking about this meal. Too bad I am 1,000 miles away but I will be back! read more

Amazing fried seafood dinner!! Enjoyed fresh and hot seafood platters here! Wonderful shrimp and scallop platter with perfectly and lightly breaded tender scallop pieces. Shrimp were light and crispy and nice sized. Served with two sides - fried okra is yummy! Fries are good and others liked the coleslaw. One did try the baked beans but wasn't keen on them. Hush puppies were also fantastic and contained corn - yum! Would be happy to return! read more

The clam strips are delicious and not rubbery as you may find in other restaurants. Their meals are easily shared. Baskets are $9.99-18.9 read more

First of all, I had the clam chowder. They should not be allowed to call this chowder it was dirty dishwater potatoes and a couple of clams, not at all what do you expect or hope for. I had the fish and chips and I must say the fish was very good fried nicely hot and tasty.The chips or french fries or average and I only ate a few of them because they weren't that good. My lunch mate had the cat fish and shrimp which were both good, the french fries which weren't that good, and a bowl of dirty dishwater clam soup, which he basically threw away. So I would say stick with the fried fish only and you'll be happy, all the sides that I had sucked... Sorry. read more

My son and I stopped in Bubbas Shrimp shack yesterday and had delicious seafood lunch. It is located a bit off the beaten path in a small strip mall in Hayes, VA. Cort and I split the fried shrimp platter $10.99, two tacos $3 ea and a She-crab soup $6. The order took about 10 minutes and it all look hot and fresh. The shrimp were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The yellow sauce was excellent. The she crab was good, but not great. A bit too creamy for me. Slaw, hush puppies and tacos were on point. My favorite was the fried oyster one. I almost forgot that we had an amazing macadamia nut cookie there as well.. Cheyenne the counter person helped us choose our meal and was informative & friendly. Overall we had a fantastic experience and recommend a visit. Food: 4.6 Star Service: 4.5 star Appearance: 3.7 Star Value: 4.3 star read more

I have been earing here very often. However the last time I ate here the fried shrimp were fried with the shell on. I asked the cook about it, and he said that they came that way. Fried shrimp in the shell. That is new to me. read more

I had the fish tacos of each available. Granted the fish was fried very well, the creativity of the tacos are not very impressive. They are simply a store bought flour tortilla, some sauce, and chopped cabbage. I would like to point out the hush puppies were very tasty and the customer service very friendly, so I would return to this establishment for those reasons. read more

While visiting family, I decided to check this place out! I was a little skeptical of a place with the name "bubba" in the title but I'm here to tell you don't be scared!! The place actually looked nice inside. The guy that took our order was friendly and helpful! The food didn't take too long to be ready and then we were on our way! The smells in the car were teasing us during our ride back to our destination! When we finally got to try the food I was impressed! I got the fried shrimp and catfish and my daughter got the steamed shrimp! Both were really good and we will visit again when in town! read more

The food has always been great when I've dined there! The customer service has been excellent as well.

A big basket of shrimp! Fried to perfection with two sides! Way too much to enjoy for lunch. DH and I had heard how yummy Bubba's fried shrimp baskets were and found ourselves in White Marsh one day and decided we needed to see for ourselves. We each ordered a shrimp basket with fries and slaw. We ordered at the counter and they were served up made to order pretty quickly. It was love at first bite. Light and crunchy, the shrimp were perfectly cooked. Hush puppy and fries were fairly good as well. I passed on the cole slaw (never been a fan of it) but DH said it was fine. For $22, we had a LOT of very enjoyable food that we were unable to finish for lunch. So we were able to have the rest of it for a hearty snack later. read more
