Shrimp Shack

First time here, we were sooo hungry! We ordered calamari for starters, ocean burger and shrimp boil for mains. Chocolate milkshake too Food tasted fresh & flavoursome, food came out quickly as well. Good portion sizes & loved the bibs and gloves too. Rice was a major let down - was too hard & tasted stale. When mentioned to a waitress, she told us that others have complained about the rice before & this is due to turmeric apparently Thank you to Sinead for being lovely & friendly!

Had good time, friendly staff, tasty food platter we eate. Quantity provided was sufficient along with plenty rice and chips well thought then others, value for money reasonably charged which is plus point, great work guys will definitely vist again and will recommend others who are seafood lovers. Keep the same unique concept of no menu overpricing/quantity/quality/ambience which is best I have seen comparing others seafood places and you are doing great.

Excellent food. Big portions. The staff was very attentive. Great attention to detail. Changing our bin 2 times during our meal. Very fast. The food was served in less than 10 minutes.

Good food, portions are great and the sauces are a great complement to the meals. Our servers were both really good, and despite being busy they stopped at our table to make sure everything is fine. Had sea food boil platter for one and had plenty to takeout

Excellent. Went with my mum and sister and the food tasted fab; you get your money's worth. Polite staff and friendly environment great for a night out and family. Apple crumble was gorgeous. I asked for more custard, and they happily provided it. We went for the most expensive boil, which has two lobster tails and bigger sized shrimps. We also each had cocktails and dessert, hence the price per person was high but you can still have a good time for less than £20pp if you go for the cheaper platters (quality is the same and the smaller shrimps are still a great size). So something for every budget. Toilet wasn't bad but could be better maintained. I am already planning to return with my husband and kids. They loved the leftovers we brought home.

Great location, there's a car park opposite the building. Great service, will visit again

If you’re a seafood lover, Shrimp Shack in Birmingham city centre is a must-visit! The restaurant is very popular, so booking a table in advance—especially on weekends—is highly recommended. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a cozy vibe that makes you feel right at home. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. One thing to note is that you pay for your food upfront when ordering, which isn’t an issue but worth mentioning. Our food took about 30 minutes to arrive, but it was absolutely worth the wait. The presentation was top-notch, and every bite was delicious. The shrimp was perfectly cooked—so tender that it practically melted in your mouth. We ordered a platter for three, and the portion was generous, easily satisfying all of us. The only downside is the pricing, which is a bit on the higher side, likely due to its central location. However, for the quality of food and experience, it’s justifiable. Highly recommend Shrimp Shack for seafood enthusiasts. It’s a gem in the heart of Birmingham.
