The Team at SHUNK GULLEY OYSTER BAR are collecting items for recent hurricane victims. Please join us today through October 24th as we collect items to fill the truck. After a hurricane has damaged a community, basic need items are an essential donation to keep people fed, clean, and safe.
As young people decide what they "want to be" later in life they may consider working in the hospitality industry. One such person, Macie Porter, is now a teacher in DeFuniak Springs but worked at Shunk Gulley Oyster Bar while choosing her path in life. Macie recently invited George Barnes, Shunk Gulley's Director, to explain why the Food and Beverage industry can be a great place to start any career. In fact; Lin-Manuel Miranda, Pharrell Williams, Nicki Minaj, Barack Obama and Pink are just a few who started in the industry.
The Secret Behind the Flavor
The Catch of the Day: Red Snapper
At Shunk Gulley Oyster Bar, we pride ourselves on bringing the freshest seafood straight from the Gulf to your plate. Our commitment to quality means we go straight to the source to ensure that every bite you take is an experience worth savoring. Recently, George had the pleasure of visiting Waterstreet Seafood in Apalachicola, where our prized oysters from Rattlesnake Cove originate. Nestled along the pristine shores of Apalachicola Bay, Waterstreet Seafood is renowned for its dedication to providing the finest seafood to restaurants like ours.

We don't want you to be able to tell the difference,"
