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. Based on 5 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.3 stars. Price $$

Food took a few extra minutes, but it was completely worth the wait! Sit outside, enjoy the view and try the grilled menu, Cajun style. I chose Cajun shrimp and flounder with green beans as a side. The fish was so tender you couldn’t use a fork, the shrimp was cooked perfectly and the seasoning was balanced and delicious. As an appetizer, I had the best coconut shrimp I’ve ever had, served with a nice take on dipping sauce. Orange/mango tasting with a hit of worshteshire sauce, amazing! Topped it all off with the local “Shrimp Pail Ale”, one of the best meals I’ve had in Panama city. My waiter was Derek, if you eat here I hope you ask for him or get him, friendly, attentive and all around good guy. Give this place a shot, you won’t be disappointed!

We stopped here for dinner on a Monday night. Not too busy. No wait time which was really nice. We were greeted and sat right away. EM Served us and was really great. Very friendly. We wanted seafood on our last night in PCB and soo glad we stopped here. We shared the Seafood Boil with sweet heat for 2 on the specials menu on the table. And Damn that was good with a spicy kick. Perfect amount for us. We also had the Fried Pickles. They were soo good. The restaurant was very clean and the bathrooms were well maintained. Definitely recommend.

We ate dinner at the Shrimp Basket three days straight and loved everything we had. We dined outside on the porch dining area, inside at a table, and at the bar. Service at all three seating locations was excellent. Derrick is awesome. The blonde haired young lady who served us inside was also. And so was our service at the bar. We left stuffed and very satisfied!

The service and staff were amazing! The food looked great. However, I had a difficult time eating seafood that tasted like it was pulled fresh from the ocean…it just had a fishy taste to it. This may be perfect for someone else, just not us. The chicken in my pasta also tasted really bland. The tea was great, as well as the fries.
