Franchise History

Once upon a time, way back in 2007, Shuckin’ Shack co-Founders Matt Piccinin and Sean Cook had a craving for fresh oysters. Living in the sleepy coastal town of Carolina Beach, North Carolina, they figured it shouldn’t be too hard to find an oyster bar, right? WRONG.

Realizing they’d stumbled onto an unmet need in their local restaurant and bar scenes, Matt and Sean hatched a plan to open their own fresh oyster bar and seafood restaurant. Through cases of beer and plans scrawled on napkins, the pair’s dream materialized as a monument to domestic seafood, cold beer, and laid-back fun for the locals who would flock to it upon opening.

Shuckin’ Shack was an instant hit with the locals, but things didn’t really get cooking until Jonathan Weathington joined the crew in 2014, quickly becoming the CEO and getting the bar and grill off the ground.
