“I’m excited to open my second Shuckin’ Shack in Wesley Chapel,” said Harper. “It’s a growing brand, we like the seafood and we want people to relax and enjoy! The vibe is a very comfortable beach bar feel, so it’s perfect for the Wesley Chapel area.”

Quality, casual oyster service is what has set Shuckin’ Shack apart since the brand’s inception, according to its founders, and has allowed it to scale at such an impressive rate. The steamed oysters and oysters on the half shell have helped over a dozen locations flourish. The brand also has plans for a major Midwest expansion.

Enjoy fresh seafood and great cocktails at Shuckin’ Shack

Snow crab legs, peel-and-eat shrimp, fried mahi fingers, a butterflied Polish kielbasa sandwich, lobster rolls, and hushpuppies are also menu staples. This is meant to be a family-friendly establishment with an Outer Banks vibes. Side note: their delectable chicken wings are known as a top-tier shareable plate.

The bartenders are also slinging creative cocktails in an environment that “exudes relaxation”, as goes the Shuckin’ Shack mantra, and is another aspect of the wild growth in Wesley Chapel. Shuckin’ Shack will span more than 4,000 square feet once open, with additional patio seating.

All we know is we are more than excited for fish fry Fridays in one of the most booming areas in the region. Keep up with Shuckin Shack by following the restaurant on Facebook, Instagram, and its website.

The new location will be operating for dinner hours only for the first couple of weeks from 4pm-10 pm Monday through Friday and 11 am-11 pm Saturday through Sunday.
