Bubba Gump Shrimp location statistics
The company’s published pages present slightly different totals, so the measurement source matters. The About page reports 22 U.S. locations and 16 international locations. The FAQ reports 21 U.S. locations and 10 international locations. Meanwhile, the View All Locations page lists 10 international locations and identifies U.S. locations by state. These are reported figures from separate company pages, not a single reconciled count.
The View All Locations page lists 6 California restaurants and 6 Florida restaurants. Those two states account for 12 of the listed U.S. locations on that page. The same page lists 3 locations in Texas and 2 in Nevada. Minnesota, Mississippi, New York, and Tennessee each have 1 listed location.
| Geography or page | Reported locations |
|---|---|
| United States, About page | 22 |
| International, About page | 16 |
| United States, FAQ | 21 |
| International, FAQ | 10 |
| California, View All Locations | 6 |
| Florida, View All Locations | 6 |
| Texas, View All Locations | 3 |
| Nevada, View All Locations | 2 |
The state-by-state figures are useful for understanding where the listed domestic restaurants are concentrated. California and Florida are tied for the largest state totals in the View All Locations listing. Texas follows with 3, while Nevada has 2. The remaining four named states each show a single location on that page. Because the page also lists 10 international locations, its displayed inventory should be read as a page-specific listing rather than used to overwrite the totals reported elsewhere.
Restaurant history and footprint
The About page dates Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.’s beginning to 1996. It also identifies Cannery Row in Monterey, California, as the site of the first restaurant. That gives the brand a documented California starting point before its later domestic and international footprint.
The same About page reports 16 international locations throughout Asia, Europe, and Mexico. The FAQ uses a lower figure of 10 international locations “so far,” while the View All Locations page lists 10 international locations. The difference between the About-page figure and the two 10-location references is material: the reported international totals differ by 6 locations depending on which company page is consulted.
The FAQ also reports 21 U.S. locations, compared with 22 on the About page. That one-location difference is small relative to the overall footprint but important when quoting a total. A careful statistics summary should retain the source labels and avoid presenting these figures as if they were measured on the same date or generated by the same location inventory.
The Groups page adds an events perspective. It lists 4 event and program types: Corporate Events, Tour Groups, Social Events, and Student Programs. That page also lists 20 selectable locations for events. The event-location count is therefore a separate operational figure from the restaurant totals shown on the About, FAQ, and View All Locations pages.
Menu prices and calorie comparisons
The food menu pairs prices with calorie figures for many dishes. Among the listed items, Mama Gump’s Garlic Bread Basket costs $7.99 and has 920 calories. Fried Pickles cost $11.99 and have 500 calories, while Queso Dip costs $13.99 and has 460 calories. Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail is listed at $15.99 with 270 calories, making it the lowest-calorie item among these four examples.
Several menu entries show how serving style changes both price and calories. New England Clam Chowder is $7.99 for a cup with 220 calories, or $11.99 for a bowl with 380 calories. Mama Blue’s Shrimp Gumbo is also $7.99 for a cup, with 200 calories, and $11.99 for a bowl, with 390 calories.

The Crab and Shrimp Boil is the highest-calorie item in the supplied food-menu figures at 2,170 calories and $39.99. The menu lists that same price and calorie count for both the Garlic and Cajun preparations.
Shrimp, seafood, and combination entrées
Shrimp dishes span a broad range of listed prices and calorie figures. Shrimper’s Heaven costs $27.99 and has 1,310 calories. Maker’s Mark Salmon is also $27.99, but the listed calorie figure is 770. Dumb Luck Coconut Shrimp costs $25.99 and has 1,100 calories, while Shrimp New Orleans costs $25.99 and has 1,190 calories.
Other seafood entrées include Shrimp Scampi Pasta at $24.99 and 1,350 calories, Mama Blue’s Fried Shrimp at $22.99 and 1,050 calories, and Jambalaya at $23.99 and 790 calories. Captain’s Fish & Chips is listed at $22.99 with 1,140 calories. A larger portion costs $25.99 and has 1,680 calories.
The menu also lists I’m Stuffed! Shrimp at $28.99 and 1,650 calories. Its price is $1.00 higher than Shrimper’s Heaven, while its listed calorie figure is 340 calories higher. The Crab and Shrimp Boil is the highest-priced seafood item among the supplied figures at $39.99, and its listed 2,170 calories exceed the larger Captain’s Fish & Chips portion by 490 calories.
Shrimper’s Net Catch provides a separate set of preparation and portion details. The base dish is priced at $18.99. The menu lists a 1/2-pound garlic option with 680 calories and a Cajun option with 690 calories. It also lists a 1-pound garlic upgrade priced at $29.99. The published figures distinguish the smaller calorie-specified options from the larger-priced upgrade, without providing a calorie figure for that upgrade in the supplied menu facts.
Soups, salads, sides, and chicken
The menu’s non-seafood and mixed categories include several clearly quantified choices. Southern Fried Chicken Salad costs $18.99 and has 800 calories. The Classic Caesar Salad with grilled chicken has 840 calories, with the chicken addition priced at $5.99. The Classic Caesar Salad with Cajun shrimp has 760 calories, with that addition priced at $6.99.
Strawberry Salad with a shrimp substitute is listed at $20.99 and 490 calories. An added Fresh Garden Salad costs $6.99 and has 140 calories. These figures show that the salad category includes both relatively low-calorie side additions and higher-calorie protein-topped meals.
Dixie Fried Chicken & Pickles costs $15.99 and has 960 calories. Mama’s Fried Chicken costs $21.99 and has 1,390 calories. Dixie Style Baby Back Ribs are listed at $29.99 and 1,250 calories. The 12-ounce Boneless Ribeye costs $33.99 and has 1,130 calories.
The largest supplied calorie figure in this group belongs to Alabama Chicken Pasta, at 2,070 calories and $22.99. That is 680 calories above Mama’s Fried Chicken and $0.99 more expensive. The menu also lists Shrimp Shack Mac & Cheese at $15.99 and 1,270 calories, while the plain Mac & Cheese variant costs $11.99 and has 1,100 calories.
Drinks and event-program figures
The drinks menu supplies calorie figures without listed prices for the drinks included here. Top Shelf Long Island has 270 calories. Jenny’s Pink Lemonade has 290 calories, and Blue Hawaiian has 350 calories. Tito’s Premium Bloody Mary has 190 calories, the lowest of the four listed drinks.
The 160-calorie spread between the lowest and highest of these four drink figures runs from Tito’s Premium Bloody Mary at 190 calories to Blue Hawaiian at 350 calories. Top Shelf Long Island is 20 calories below Jenny’s Pink Lemonade, while Blue Hawaiian is 60 calories above the lemonade.
The Groups page places these menu figures in a broader restaurant-service context by listing four types of organized programming: Corporate Events, Tour Groups, Social Events, and Student Programs. It also lists 20 event-selectable locations. Those figures describe the options presented on the Groups page; they do not establish that every listed restaurant offers identical event capacity, menus, or availability.
The location pages and menus therefore describe several different aspects of Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.: a company that reports a 1996 beginning in Monterey, a footprint reported differently across its About and FAQ pages, a state distribution concentrated in California and Florida on the location listing, and a menu with prices and calorie figures ranging from lighter listed options such as the 200-calorie gumbo cup to the 2,170-calorie Crab and Shrimp Boil.
