About Us
Ship Bottom Shellfish is located on 18th Street in Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island and offers the freshest seafood available. We provide a casual dining atmosphere amidst a bustling seafood house. We initially opened as a primarily take-out eatery, but thirty years later, we have transformed into a family style dining restaurant with a full-scale fish market named after its hometown of Ship Bottom on Long Beach Island. Although specializing in shellfish, our extensive menu includes all varieties of seafood, as well as entrées for the land lovers.
