That’s a wrap on Summer 2026! 🎆

Thank you to everyone who came out tonight for our annual fireworks event and helped us end the season on such an incredible note!

Due to selling through the vast majority of our inventory, Shanks is now officially closed for the season.

We can’t thank everyone enough for another amazing summer at Shanks. From our incredible staff to everyone who stopped by for a meal, thank you for making this season one to remember.

We had a great summer and are already looking forward to the next one. ⚓️

See you next summer! 🌊🦞

🎆 TODAY IS THE BIG DAY! 🎆

It’s officially Fireworks Night at Shanks! A few important updates for today:

🍴 Our kitchen will close around 6 PM for a little over an hour as we prepare for our fireworks reservations.

🌅 Upstairs seating will close at 6 PM so our team can get everything set up for reserved guests.

🦞 Once the kitchen reopens, downstairs seating will remain open to the public for the evening.

📣 We’ll also post an update later today on whether we’ll be open tomorrow, depending on how much inventory we have remaining after tonight.

We’re looking forward to a great night on the harbor! 🎇⚓️

Some Saturday action from the Shanks kitchen 🌧️🍽️

With the end of our season right around the corner, we are running low on select inventory. We’ll keep our social media and website updated if any menu items sell out throughout the weekend.

We’re keeping an eye on the weather as well and will post any updates should conditions require us to close early.

Come get your Shanks favorites while you still can! 🦞⚓️
