Bubba's is the restaurant half of a family-run marina on Lynnhaven Inlet. It has held 3323 Shore Drive for more than thirty years. A covered dock lets you pick crabs while charter boats idle past. Steamed jimmies sell by the dozen at market price when available. The menu bills its crab cake sandwich as the famous crab cake sandy. That sandwich and a $7.95 cup of she-crab soup are the other crab orders. Seafood comes across the dock from the boats next door. Google has it at 4.3 across roughly 3,400 reviews.
