Newest Menu

Bunkys raw bar foodAfter being back up and running for a while now, we have released our most recent full menu. We were on a limited menu for a while during the Covid shutdown.

Our menu features your favorite oysters, chicken dishes, bites, bowls and sandwiches. Also, order our delicious grilled items like our seafood platters. 

Have you tried our seafood gumbo? It is magnifique! Fun Fact: Gumbo originates from Louisiana. As far back as the 18th century, settlers would put together whatever the catch of the day was together with already existing French soup recipes. The product developed over hundreds of years into modern day gumbo. 

Do you like Clam Chowder? We have delicious chowder. Fun Fact: Clam chowder traces its roots to the northeast where people would combine milk with clam broth. Chunks of clams and potatoes would usually round out the dish along with seasoning. It can be traced back to the 1700’s. [Read more…] about Newest Menu

History of the Po’ Boy Sandwich

Try our Shrimp Po' BoyOne of our more popular items on the menu is the Po’ Boy Sandwich. Our Po’ Boy is your choice of fried shrimp or fried oysters on a toasted roll with house made remoulade, lettuce and tomato. This is a delicious sandwich and well worth trying. 

So how did this delicious sandwich get its name? The facts are not 100% concrete but there are some theories. As you may have guessed, the word Po’ is actually short for “poor”. The most accepted theory for the name is from a 1929 worker’s strike against the New Orleans street car company. Two brothers that used to work for the street car company named, Benny and Clovis Martin, ran a restaurant in the area. They would serve free lunches to their former colleagues during the strike and nicknamed it the “Poor Boy Sandwich”. [Read more…] about History of the Po’ Boy Sandwich

Do You Love Wings?

hot wings melbourne beachside floridaMany people know Bunky’s as the number one spot beachside to get fresh oysters. But did you you know that our wings are extremely popular?

Wings are the most popular appetizer in the United States. But they weren’t always. There was a time when wings were considered more or less the “leftover” of the chicken. When butchers would cut up the chicken, they would separate the thighs and breast and even the legs. But the wings, usually containing very little meat, were an afterthought.

Don’t get me wrong, people still ate the wings. But they were nothing like the delicious dish they are today. Specially prepared wings that we enjoy today are generally thought to have started with the “Buffalo wing”, so named because they were first offered in Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York in the year 1964. The wing grew to be a favorite in the area and slowly made its way across the USA. [Read more…] about Do You Love Wings?

Check Out Sebastian Inlet

Visiting the area? Check out the Sebastian Inlet just south of here. Less than a thirty minute drive and you can see the beautiful inlet that was ranked one of the top piers in the entire state of Florida.

The area features fishing, camping, boating, jet skiing, kayaking and restaurants. The state park runs an area around the bridge that has parking and food. It also has a shallow water area that is safe for kids and is great to catch some rays.

If you go out on the pier, you will most certainly see manatees and /or dolphins. [Read more…] about Check Out Sebastian Inlet
