in the area of the new location, there used to be a bar that was open to the malecon and had beach sand on the floor. I looked for it a month ago, gone. did it re-locate somewhere? :?:

Hello all - The Shack Family has decided to add a few new menu items, a better location, and a great view of the bay to already famous Drunken Chicken, Shack Burgers, and personal pig roasts.

The Shack will be open next week with a full bar and snacks and the following week will have an expanded menu which I will post later....just think appetizers galore with fantastic french fries and lots of bacon.

The new spot is a few hundred feet from the Los Arcos hotel and right on the malecon, just outside of the hustle and noise of downtown.

Come in for a cold draft, a slushee hurricane or margarita kicked up a notch with Shackshine, and soon after the burgers that have been rated the best in La Paz.

Peace, Love, and Bacon

Awesome!!! Will be down to visit in a month and can't wait. What are the hours going to be for the new place? I always seem to wander by there on the day they are closed :fire:

mulegemichael - 6-23-2013 at 09:59 AM

does travis make his own fries or does he use the frozen variety....i know his burgers are the best on the planet...hope to visit when we can.

Congratulations, Everyone; happy for your successes!

Love the beach picnic basket idea.

Go! Shack Family, GO!

What took you so long?
:tumble:

The landlord of Paradise Found kept raising the rent until Clark had to leave the location. The owner of the property then tore the building down so he could have an nice unkempt ugly eyesore lot on the Malecon. Clark tried several incarnations but is no longer in the La Paz area. I believe he is down south somewhere.

By the way, The Shack told us that the fries were frozen. They are, honestly, not up to the standards of the rest of his food.

My funniest Shack story from a couple of years ago; I overhear Travis's daughter explaining to my 9 year old how to play beer pong....."you don't have to use beer" :rolleyes:

Clark moved Paradise Found to Km13 on the curve just before Centenario. Had many great lunches there unfortunately the area wasn't too good for business. He has since left the area and that spot is now a funeral fome.

great to hear about the fries, max!...totally cool!.....neat to hear about macy also as he has played in our wine cellar up north...party in our cellar early next month with lee oskar, the kingston trio and founding members of the brothers four!!...we are blessed!....wish ya was here!

weebray - 6-24-2013 at 06:43 PM

I repeat, notwhithstanding what Travis's mom (akmaxx) sez, the fries are frozen and not very good.

willardguy - 6-24-2013 at 07:10 PM

were these magic fries? did you get these fries from the same guy who sold jack his stalk beans? :lol:

acadist - 6-25-2013 at 08:47 PM

I'll see you in exactly one month :biggrin:

And I will eat the fries!!!! (or at least my kids will)

weebray - 6-26-2013 at 07:26 AM

We are trying very hard to get papered so you can come Shack up with us........

Peace, love and bacon

Just like the old days. Is someone waiting for a tip?

acadist - 6-28-2013 at 06:41 PM

YAHOO! 3 more weeks!

The new Shack ROCKS!!!

We were down in La Paz watching Travis, Rosie, and new partner Maxx putting the "Shack" back together in a new improved location. It's a great location north of the Los Arcos" with a wonderful tree shaded open air patio overlooking the bay...The fresh fries are an upgrade to the best burger in La Paz...openmike every night is a big draw...catch Macy this week he can play that harp baby! **this message endorsed by Robin y Mago from Mulege
