Pros: Great food, fantastic ambience Cons: A little unhealthy
During December last year, my enterprising father decided to make a special trip down to the United States of America for a one-of-a-kind holiday, probably never to be experienced again. In the beginning, I was wondering why my parents decided to travel...

Pros: Great location, great shrimp, fun place Cons: Very rich food
Ok, Bubba Gumps in LaHaina, on the island of Maui in Hawaii is not where you get an authentic Hawaiian feeling. But after seeing our umpteenth Hawaiian-type show, our visit to Bubba Gumps was a delightful change.
Pros: Lively ambiance and food to die for, superb view, great customer service and lots to eat or too much to eat Cons: Please don't go there on holidays...why? Too crowded...(I accepted the 30-minute wait) I had a ball of a time...Don't worry...it will be worth it...
I challenge to go to Pier 39 without going to or dropping by Bubba Gumps'. If you are a tourist in San Francisco, you must ask your hotel manager or anybody for that matter about this place. Bubba Gumps' is located right on Pier 39. It is upstairs...
Pros: Great food, Great service, Great view,..... Cons: The seafood smell? But it IS a seafood restaurant..
After a long walk through Fisherman's Wharf, our touring family got VERY hungry. The previous days and nights, we went to restaurants where the service was not tourist friendly and the food not great. So, not expecting much, we went to Bubba Gump's...
Pros: great food, great service, fun Cons: a little pricey (but well worth it)
Although this restaurant is in the San Fransisco listing, I still had to write about it. I went to the chain of this restaurant at Navy Pier in Chicago, Illinois, and just fell in love with it, I just had to write a review about it.
Pros: GREAT FUN!!!!! AND GREAT FOOD!!! Cons: Not enough of these restaurants around!
Watch the movie Forest Gump then eat here. You will be given a trivia question! I love this place!! It is all geared toward the movie and has memorabilia EVERYWHERE! The movie is played on multiple screens throughout the restaurant and you'll be humming...

Just on the spur of the moment this last week my wife and I took our two youngest kids and drove to San Francisco. We arrived at Pier 39 and walked around for a little while and then decided it was time to eat and we came across Bubba Gumps! Being a...

My family first dined at the Monterrey location in 2004. My wife and I revisited the location last week while out of town. It is located in the Cannery Row area and sits on the bay. There is a wooden deck that encloses the eating area on ...
This is one of the finest restaurants that I have eaten at. It's great because it has something for everyone. I myself like shrimp, but when I take the kids with me of course they want burgers and the burgers are just great. This restaurant is just so...
Pros: A FUN and EXILERATING place to dine!! Cons: Pretty Loud and usually crowded!
Bubba Gump Shrimp Company is very up beat and just a fun place to go! So if your looking for a quiet evening look elsewhere! But if you want to hang with some friends or celebrate a birthday its perfect!! We live in Honolulu, Hawaii so that is the only...
Pros: Great food and atmosphere Cons: Can be a long wait during busy hours
Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant is an attraction in itself. If you didn't like the movie Forrest Gump (and why NOT?) you probably wouldn't like it here. The gimmick to the restaurant is, of course, the movie, the movie memorabilia, and the movie's shrimp...
Pros: Lots of good food, cheap. Cons: No outdoor non-smoking area.
Since moving to Honolulu last year, I've been to Bubba Gump's several
times - once or twice with co-workers, since I work nearby, and the
rest with my wife and infant daughter.
The restaurant has tons of atmosphere, which is a good...
Pros: Wide selection of shrimp dishes Cons: Usually there is an extensive waiting time to be seated
If a promise is a promise, then The Bubba Gump Shrimp Market would truly make Bubba happy. Bubba Gump's has an excellent variety of shrimp dishes to choose from. So, if you are in the mood for a healthy dose of shrimp, I don't believe that you will...
Pros: Dishes are well- prepared and tasty and friendly wait-staff Cons: A little over-priced
I was pleasantly surprised when I went to eat at the Bubba Gump Shrimping Company Restaurant. I figured it to be a very average bland seafood type of place. But when I got there I was very pleased with the decor. The restaurant is made up like a...
Pros: The food taste good and the hospitality was very good. Cons: Not enough food and its a little pricey.
Recently my family and I visited Bubba Gump's in Honolulu. We had some company that wanted to see what all the hoopla was about, for some reason I knew that this wasn't going to be one of my best experiences. However, once we got inside there was tons...
I was not thrilled to eat at this restaurant, but thought it might be neat because of the connection to "Forrest Gump".
My first impression when I stepped inside was that things were overdone, much like at Planet Hollywood or the Hard Rock...
Pros: Good enviroment. Fun waiters/waitresses. Nice view. Cons: Pricey. Not enough choices on menu.
If you like seafood and don't mind the so-so food, then this is the place for you. You don't go to Bumba Gump for the food, you go there for the environment.
As soon as you step into the restaurant, you will see movie props everywhere, they...
Pros: Not only seafood, but burgers as well. Cons: Didn't have as much "shrimp style" dishes as one might think.
I recently visited two bubba gump restaurant in Hawaii. What brought me there was of course the notoriety that it has gained due to the movie Forest Gump. Since I liked the movie, and kinda thought of the whole idea as pretty neat, I decide to give the...

Pros: Similar to the movie, shops, location, many shrimp dishes, $ off parking in Pier 39 with receipt Cons: no chicken dinners
This restaurant, with its great location overlooking the bay and a spectacular (and free) view of Alcatraz, provides an excellent array of shrimp. However, if you are like me and do not like shrimp, this restaurant is not the place to go. Hamburgers...
The first time I went to Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant I was amazed with everything... the service, the food and the atmosphere! The waiters are all there to help you not just one,and they make it fun and enjoyable. Plus, during the short wait to receive...
Pros: The whole dining experience was great. The food and service was excellent. Cons: During dinner time had a little wait but other than that no real cons.
My wife and I just returned from a trip from Maui,Hawaii. While in Maui we stayed at the LaHaina Royal Resort. We liked the atmosphere and the food so much at Bubba Gumps that we ended up eating there twice during our 6 night stay. The food was fantastic, the help even better and the view of the ocean was great. We would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who visits the island.
Pros: Food was delicious and the view of Times Square through the window was wonderful Cons: Wishing there were more locations
While exploring NYC this past weekend, my husband and I noticed the Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant in Times Square. We were surprised how quickly we got in, they seem to be very efficient in their service. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was a lot of fun. My husband had the Bucket O Trash and I had stuffed shrimp. Neither one of us were disappointed. While not a big Forrest Gump fan, I enjoyed the trivia questions our waitress asked. The employees seem to have a lot of fun which is uncommon with most restaurant chains. My husband and I will definitely return for dinner on our next visit to NYC.
Bubba Gump Breckenridge by srb_england ,Apr 17 '07
Pros: Great Service, wonderful food, Big Portions +++++ Cons: Not one in the UK yet !!!!!!!!!
Top marks all round, stayed in Breckenridge, Colorado for 10 days during April 07, ate in Bubba's at least 3 times, could not get my 17 + 15 year old kids to even consider anywhere else without a agreeing to going back to Bubba's as a compromise. Had one slight hiccup on the last visit when the starter was cold when delivered to the table, both the waiter and manager fell over themselves to put it right and did not stop apologising. Really nice laid back atmosphere, without losing sight that the diners are the most important part of the operation. Cant find fault with anything that we choose from the menu, everything we had was cooked to perfection and plenty of it. We have also dined in the Bubba Gumps restaurant in Universal Studio's Orlando a few times, this also was excellent. Well done guys keep up the good work, cant wait for one to opened in the UK
Pros: Good food. Fun staff and atmosphere. Cons: Little pricy. Crowded.
A friend of mine had told me about her experience at the Bubba Gump Restaurant at the Mall of America so when we were vacationing in Dayton Beach, FL, we knew we had to try it out. It was everything she had said it would be. The food was plentiful and delicious. The staff was fun and attentive. I wish every restaurant had a "Run Forrest Run" and "Stop Forrest Stop" system. We would no sooner turn the license plate to "Stop" and there someone was wanting to know what we needed. Just amazing!
Pros: Great Food, great service, and great ambiance. Cons: Long waiting time, only because the food is great!
My husband and I visited the Big Island of Hawaii and discovered Bubba Gump the first night we landed. We were pleasantly surprised that the food was excellent, in fact we ate there 4 out of the 6 nights we were there. We have visited New Orleans and Miami but never ate at the restaurant, we didn't know what we were missing. We now check for locations whenever we travel, because we can't wait to eat there again.
