Bumpa Gumps

Recommended Posts

On a previous thread, the suggestion was made not to miss Bumpa Gumps Bayside. OK, I am lost! What is Bumpa Gumps and why shouldn't I miss the opportunity to go there? Will be arriving in Miami on Saturday for our cruise next Sunday. Thanks for any info.

It is actually "BUBBA GUMPS". If you remember the movie Forrest Gump, this is a spin off restaurant that sells all kinds of "SHRIMP". Personally I have never eaten there but others I know have and really enjoyed the shrimp. I am allergic to shellfish so I have not had any interest in going there.

 

Here is a link to their website with the location:

Enjoy!

I also ate at the one in New Orleans. Food was great and atmosphere fun. Looks just like the scene from the movie...lots of shrimp, paper towels & buckets on tables. Excellent if you like seafood.

Our group of Paradise CCr's (Paradise Seekers) met there the night before our cruise. It was an excellent place to get together for the "meet & greet" we all had a great time!

 

I'm not much for shrimp, so I had their fish n' chips. It was really good!

 

If you decide to go, make sure you watch the movie before you go. Because the servers will you on the spot, and will ask a few trivia questions about the movie.

I think it is a law that you have to eat at Bubba Gumps if you go to Bayside.

 

That's one thing I really really miss when we cruise out of Ft Lauderdale

 

Happy Cruising

Trvexprt,

OMG, thanks for telling me there's one in Daytona! I will have to go through there in a couple of weeks to get to Tampa for our cruise! Is it far off I95? Does anyone know how to get there from I95?

I was wondering if we were gonna have to wait 'til Orlando to eat something!!

We're going on the Conquest in October, and are planning to check out Bubba Gumps in NOLA. Is it close to the French Quarter??

Dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe in Bayside Marketplace is also a good time!

We have ate at both Bubba Gumps and Hard Rock Cafe at Bayside Marketplace. Both are a great time. Like Chris, we missed it this year cause we cruised out of Ft Lauderdale.

Bay side is a great experience...would highly recomend an afternoon there. BUT be careful of bbba gumps---we ran a LARGE bill there without knowing it. Beer is very expensive there, expecially if it comes in a genuine take home with you bubba gump beer glass!!!!!!!

I guess I'm in the minority here...I didn't think it was really anything special. The food seemed to be Red Lobster quality to me.

I do not do seafood in any way, shape or form. It didn't stop me from enjoying Bubba Gump's. The southern fried chicken with the bourbon gravy is to die for.
