The first Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. restaurant and market opened in 1996 on Cannery Row in Monterey, California after the success of the movie “Forrest Gump.” We’ve since grown to include many notable locations throughout the United States and internationally.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. captures the charm and American spirit that made “Forrest Gump” a smash hit, featuring down-home décor reminiscent of the movie’s setting in Alabama. Now branded as an American icon, the restaurant showcases memorabilia and still-photos from the movie, along with reproductions of script pages, storyboards and even some costumes.
At the core, we are a small chain of seafood restaurants committed to providing a casual environment where everyone can enjoy a great meal and have some fun too.
Food is the hero at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., we serve food that makes our employees proud and will make you want to return. Our menu features shrimp, of course. And once you’ve had one of our margaritas hand-shaken at your table, you’re sure to be a fan.
At Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. we’re always ready for great food, great fun, and a great party!
