'''Chum bucket''', ('''The''') '''Chum Bucket''', or '''chumbucket''' can mean:
The '''Chum Bucket''', is a fictional [[restaurant]] in the [[Nickelodeon (TV channel)|Nickelodeon]] [[cartoon]], ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''. It is owned by [[Sheldon J. Plankton]], [[Eugene Krabs]]' [[nemesis]]. Located across the street from the [[Krusty Krab]], which is far more successful than the Chum Bucket. The Chum Bucket's lack of buisiness is primarily caused by the good food served at the Krusty Krab, but also to the cruelty of Plankton to other residents of [[Bikini Bottom]]. Plankton has consistently tried to steal the "secret recipe" for the Krabby Patty so as to duplicate it and gain more customers, but he has always been unsuccessful.


*A bucket used to hold "chum" in the practice of [[chumming]]
==Slogan==
*The Chum Bucket, the fictional, unsuccessful restaurant run by [[Plankton and Karen]] in ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''.
???
*A [[chumbox]], a form of online advertising


{{disambig}}
==Address==
Somewhere on [[Conch Street]], across the road from the two Krusty Krab restaurants

==Food==
All of the food served at the Chum Bucket begins with the word "[[Chum]]" (eg. Chumbalaya instead of [[jumbalaya]]), where the name of the restaurant comes from. This is very fitting, given that the food served here tastes horrible, the reason he doesn't get any customers to his restaurant (along with his cruelty and obsession of stealing the Krabby Patty secret recipe). Only after [[King Neptune]] accused and froze Mr. Krabs for stealing his crown when it was really Plankton's fault, did he start selling the delicious [[Krabby Patties]] here...but only briefly.

==Established==
Plankton first opened the Chum Bucket in [[1977]] after arch-rival [[Eugene Krabs]] discovered the Krabby Patty secret recipe and converted his ailing nursing home into a popular undersea burger joint that it is today. It is not known why he opened his restaurant following these significant events, however, judging by his evil ways, it is presumed that Plankton wanted to rule the world and wanted to do this by stealing and selling the [[Krabby Patties]] (therefore bringing lots of people into the restaurant and ultimately ruling the world (as depicted in ''[[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]]'').

==Past employees==
**[[SpongeBob SquarePants]] - recruited from The Krusty Krab after Mr. Krabs lost a card game to Plankton. He was later returned to the rival restaurant after SpongeBob became too much for Plankton.

**[[Patrick Star]] - hired by Plankton five minutes before the 2002 [[Fry Cook Games]] after a dispute with [[SpongeBob]]. He abandoned the job at the end of the the event after SpongeBob and Patrick both found out that they really cared about each other.

==Customers==
The Chum Bucket usually barely has any customers due to his evil ways and because the Krusty Krab is much better than his ailing restaurant. Who knows how Plankton keeps his restaurant open, in which it is also his residence.

==Opening hours==
The Chum Bucket opens 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday and closed on Sunday (the same as the Krusty Krab) with the exception of the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "[[Fear of a Krabby Patty]]" when the restaurant opened 23 hours a day, resulting in its major competitor to stay open once again for 24 hours.

==Mentions in video games==
*The [[Spongebob joystick game]] by [[Jakks Pacific]] has a Chum Bucket minigame.
*In [[Battle for Bikini Bottom]] SpongeBob battles[[Robot SpongeBob]] and [[Robot Plankton]] in the Chum Bucket.
