Shrimps
One PoundServes 2
A pile of saucy, head-on shrimp to peel with your hands, the dish we’re named for.
Silent overhead loop, 6–8s: a gloved hand tears the bag, the boil spills onto butcher paper, steam, one low side light, a second hand reaches in. Mobile shows the still just after the pour.
Seafood boils · Metro Manila · Since 2014
Shrimp, crab, mussels and clams, boiled in a bag with the sauce and heat you pick, then poured right onto your table. Forks optional. Messy guaranteed.

Our story
Bag O’ Shrimps anchored itself in Manila in 2014 with the passionate captaining of couple-owners who had spent time in Los Angeles and could not pass up the chance to bring a taste of the West back to their Philippine home, an archipelago bursting with seafood potential. After a ton of tedious research, taste-testing – and a couple pounds, the couple opened this “Wharf-in-the-City” seafood-shack’s doors to the local community.
The laid-back, harbor themed restaurant boasts a mouth-watering menu containing the rich flavors of the sea, all freshly prepared in bold spice-mixes and recipes. There is also a strict table-culture observed at Bag O’ Shrimps – EAT WITH YOUR HANDS. The mess treats you to a one-of-a-kind experience where you can unplug from the bustle & wind down with friends.
When dining at Bag O’ Shrimps, there really is only one thing to expect – a deliciously messy good time.
I highly recommend the Bag O’ Momma! It’s seriously tasty!
“The messier, the better” might as well be Bag O’ Shrimps’ official motto.
Overall, it was a great experience.

Good to know
One bag feeds about two with rice, and it comes with sauce to spare. For four or more, a Feast puts everything on the table at once.
Every bag is boiled when you order and sealed with its sauce, so it travels hot.
Tell us how you like it. Pick your spice level from Mild to Very Hot, and ask for less salt when you order; we’ll adjust that bag.
It is, and that’s the fun. The butcher paper takes the mess, so the only thing left on your hands is the sauce.
Yes. We’ve been pouring since 2014, and you can dine in or pick up at SM Megamall and BF Homes, or have it delivered any day.
Dirty hands and all. We’re boiling daily from 11am to 9pm at SM Megamall and BF Homes.
