Chum Bucket

The Chum Bucket

The Chum Bucket is a restaurant owned by Sheldon J. Plankton. The Chum Bucket consists of a Dining area, Kitchen, a room with a giant video screen that shows Plankton's Labrador Retriever, and possibly Plankton's apartment. Plankton once turned his restaurant into a souvenir shop in New Leaf. Its first appearance is Plankton!

Location

The Chum Bucket is located across the street from the Krusty Krab. It is visible from that restaurant's front window, but unless Plankton appears in a particular episode, it is not there. The only time, though, that the restaraunt appears without Plankton was in No Hat For Pat.
