For anyone not having attended here, think of a roadside bar/food cart setup you might encounter in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. No, not inside the resorts or hotels, in town. It's a small, comfortable little pub with a bartender, and a selection of about 6 beers. I'm assuming all the standard Arrow or DeKuppers liquors are also available for any shots you may require.
Behind the pub is a connecting patio area that has a nice smoking section overlooking the parking lot, and 4 or 5 picnic tables. On the far side is a food trailer set up. That's the shrimp shack. $15 for a half order, $25 for a full order. They've got fries and corn 🌽 too.

Hush puppies were also over cooked and dense. It's been about a year since I came and was so looking forward to this meal and unfortunately it did not deliver.
