I have nothing but great things to say about The Shack—it’s truly a neighborhood gem. 1. The food is incredible—hands down the best burger in town. I grew up in the area and my family has been coming here for 20+ years, and it’s never disappointed. 2. Karaoke on Fridays is always such a blast and one of my favorite ways to spend a night out. Recently, I decided to host a 30th birthday party here, and it was honestly the best decision I could have made. Joey and April were amazing to work with—so helpful and accommodating from start to finish. We already knew the food and drinks would be top-notch, but the staff went above and beyond and truly exceeded our expectations. We had a live band inside, April customized their digital signage with the birthday boys’ photos, and we were even able

Stopped in for a late lunch after visiting the beach. We’ve been coming here occasionally for many years now. The decor and ambiance have not changed. The food is reliably good. Our vegetarian guest was delighted to see the Garden Burger on the menu. As we were all enjoying our meal, the cashier came by with some complimentary French fries, which did not go to waste!!

Just go in! Don’t worry about what this place looks like from the front outside- it is called “The Shack” for a reason. Love the out patios; the one up in front (pocket-sizes patio), and especially the larger one in the back. Dog friendly patio. Good service (bar service and food counter service). Delicious Bloody Mary. I like the low key vibe.
