When new owners assumed management of
Jim Shaw’s Seafood by Skipper Zimmerman,
not one of them wanted to change a single
thing about the restaurant they knew
and loved. They recognized that Skipper’s
model of fresh fish, driven in weekly from
the Georgia coast, wasn’t broken and didn’t need fixing. For thirty years, the restaurant
created a legacy of delicious, fresh seafood from coastal Georgia. The new owners felt so
strongly about keeping things the same that they retained Jim Shaw’s long-time manager
to train new employees on how to run the business. They were even able to keep Skipper
around, who still delivers Jim Shaw’s weekly seafood shipments straight from Brunswick.
Inside, there’s a casual, family-friendly dining area; outside, you’ll find a relaxing patio
with a full bar and walk-up service. Their menu features crowd-pleasing Georgia shrimp,
Gulf oysters and a variety of select, in-season fish. Having been voted as the most
delicious seafood restaurant in Macon, Jim Shaw’s prides itself on its incredible seafood
and affordable prices. If you’re looking to sit with a cocktail in one hand and shrimp in
the other, Jim Shaw’s is the place to go.
