Shubee Shack

While staying in Indian Rocks Beach, we stopped by Shubee Shack for a late lunch and were not disappointed. The owner recommended the crab balls which were absolutely delicious, lightly fried and packed full of fresh crab. The crab came with a heaping pile of shoestring fries with cajun seasoning and malt vinegar on the side. This is a walk-​up window place with a few benches for seating, carryout not sit-​down, great to «grab and go». Looking forward to stopping back by for more crab and chatting with the friendly fellow who owns the place.

Food was great and we had a large party so they put us up in sporty’s pub. The crab cakes and crab balls were good. Really good time and would recommend to anyone just walking around.

This place is super cool. Totally relaxed atmosphere. Delicious «maryland style» crab balls. Very pleasant owner. Definitely recommended!

After a relaxing walk on the Indian Rocks Beach, my wife and I were looking for a quick lunch to take back to our room. I had been told about Shubee’s legendary crab cake sandwiches by many of my friends so decided to give it a try for myself.
To say I wasn’t disappointed would be an understatement, it was perfect! If crabcakes aren’t your thing, they have a lot of tasty sandwich options for you to choose from.
Don’t drive by this place, it is a little hard to find as it’s around the back corner of another store front. You’ll be very happy you found Shubee’s Shack!

Wow this is my 4^th time here and so impressed every time. This visit I had the shrimp sandwich Wonderful quality on the seafood as always. The sandwich is 12.95 but you get what you pay for Huge delicious shrimp and plentiful. Fresh roll and crisp veggies on the sandwich. I recommend asking for extra shubee sauce to take the flavor up just a notch.
Usually I get the lump crab cake sandwich and it is divine as well Highly recommended especially for to go orders as they don’t have indoor seating but so worth a visit.

I’m a fan of the weird and the wonderful!
I’m also a fan of the tasty and the affordable!
Shubee Shack qualifies on all four points!
We enjoyed our meals, made by Shubee, the lone denizen of this hidden little spot. Since I walked there, he even offered me a ride back in the rain since it was closing time. No worries, I said. I enjoyed the exercise.
I recommend checking it out!

Amazing food!!! Down here on vacation and saw this across the street and had to try it!!! The crab sandwich was just amazing!!! We also had the don’t ask about it burger which was the best burger I have ever ate! The owner is extremely friendly and makes the experience even better!!! Will come back next year and check it out

This was awful. A friend recommended the place on our way to a concert. Maybe I got the wrong food, but the hot dog I half consumed seemed undercooked and pricey.
Needless to say I would not recommend.

This place is incredible! Like every other review says, you MUST get the Shuban sandwich, but you need to ask for it because I didn’t notice it on the menu. First bite into the sandwich was immediately followed by «We’re going back…» The sandwich was beyond words. Guys behind the counter were also very friendly and patient considering it was our first time there. Anyone coming to this side of FL has to stop here for some great food!

Shubee Doobee DO!
I can’t believe I’ve driven by this place for 5 years and never noticed it. Thanks to Unilocal,Eureka!
Literally a hole in the wall, this place is something special. Pat aka Shubee, makes one heckuva Shuban sandwich. The pulled pork cooked overnight, the Boar’s Head ham, the garlic crusted bread-​what an awesome sandwich. I can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.
Like the Terminator, I’ll be back.

Tiny shack with great sandwiches. Best in the area by far and very reasonably priced for the quality. Crab cake was amazing and made fresh to order.

We stopped here to grab a sandwich on our last day at the beach. If only we had known how good it is we would have made a point to visit more than once for sure. We both ordered the crab cake sandwich. The first word from hubby’s mouth after trying it was «heavenly.» I don’t think I’ve ever heard him say that about anything and I have to agree. The price is not cheap ($ 11.95 each), but this isn’t your typical sandwich. The crab is really fresh and tasty and it was cooked perfectly. It’s served on a big kaiser roll — very filling. We brought it back to our condo (as others have pointed out, it’s a carryout place) to have with our own chips and soda, so that made up for the extra money we would have spent at an dine-​in restaurant.
The owner of the shop was so friendly and welcoming that I even left a tip (which I normally don’t do for a walk up to-​go order). We’ll be back next year!

This was our very first stop here and it was perfect. We drove down from Kentucky and decide to pick up sandwiches to bring back to our condo and this was perfect. We took the reviews advice and ordered the Primo, Reddington and Shuban. So much meat and high quality. I had the reddington and the turkey, havarti with the thin slice of green apple and honey mustard was so flavor. The only place to eat there was the attached bar so not super family friendly however would be great to pick up and bring to the beach.

Went here today. Staying at the Double Tree Resort on the beach. The hotel is directly across the street from the shack. The prices were good especially for the amount of good you receive. I got a HUGE sand which stacked with so much meat and great fries!
I definitely plan on gong back while I’m staying here. The man who works here, who I assume is the owner is so nice and welcoming. Very easy to talk to and he knows how to make a great sandwich.

Did some Unilocal research and found this place near where we were staying. I recommended the BF order a Shuban because I read that was the best sandwich. As I don’t eat pork or beef, I knew the turkey was my only option.
BF LOVED, LOVED, LOOOOVVVVVEEEEDDD the Shuban. We discussed it as being a ‘debris’ Cuban. Like the debris Po Boys in New Orleans where the crispy, leftover chunks of roast beef are made into a sandwich, the pork on this sandwich was chunks, some crispy, some really juicy — and then all the rest of the Cuban stuff. He also got papas rellenas (seasoned beef filled fried potato balls) which he said were the best he had in years.
I ordered Turkey, Honey Mustard, Gouda, lettuce, and tomato. The bread was fresh, turkey thinly sliced, veggies crisp. I was satisfied although it wasn’t anything particularly special.
The guy working is apparently there all the time, I am not sure if he’s the owner but I don’t think so. He was social and nice. He made the food quickly but was there alone so it might be a problem if it had been busy.
We will definitely go back!

Awesome sandwiches! We were at the doubletree whose restaurant leaves much to be desired. We walked over very easily — it’s basically just across the street — and had a great experience! We both had the crabcake sandwich, was PERFECT! The cake is a bit tall and not wide enough to fill the bun, but was you bite and eat it it spreads out perfectly and fills the bun without spilling over. Phenominal taste. Old bay fries were also great. We went back the next day! Primo sandwich was really good and the turkey was good too! I think the crab cake was the best of the three.
Cuban is only on Saturdays, unfortunately we weren’t able to try it.
Great people work here too — really friendly and informative!

I have been wanting to try this place for a few years. Finally tried it last year when I was there, and ordered from Shubee Shack 3 times in that trip alone. The soups are great., I usually let the «chef» aka sandwich magician create something for me. I have never been disappointed yet. Headed back down in a few weeks and already salivating thinking about it. Plus — they deliver!

This is a true beach area sandwich shop; a walk up window to place orders and a couple of benches out front to sit on while a sandwich professional creates your masterpiece. Don’t fret. The fruit of your patience will be the pleasure of eating a truly delicious marriage of meat, cheese, fresh bread, and all the supporting characters. My wife enjoyed the crab balls which were praise worthy in their own right but do yourself a favor and go straight for the «shuban»; you won’t be disappointed.
Given there’s no place to eat your meal and their relatively high prices, the food quality MUST cover those two negatives and it does in spades! I’ll probably never be back to Redington Beach but will pull whatever strings possible just to eat at the Shubee Shack again.

easy 5 star. Shubee can put his sandwiches up there with the best I’ve had.
It’s literally a shack with a bench outside. bar right next door. Order go have a draft or 2 or three… lol. Not expensive.
The shuban is his take on a Cuban. It’s better than most cubans I’ve had. This You can have over and over thats how good it is.
Also had the crabcake sandwich, huge cabcake.
the primo is am Italian masterpiece. Shubee only uses boarshead meats.
If your in the area go there I highly recommend it

Great gourmet sandwich joint on the beach. No place to sit, just walk up or park and get your eats. Per my 10yo son, «This is an awesome sandwich!» I agree!
Nice seasoning on hearty bread that holds up to the ingredients. Crab has kick to it, very nice. The twist on a Cuban, called a Shuban, is to die for! Very creative menu. Sandwiches are huge! Highly recommend.
