Let's face it. Seafood is expen$ive everywhere you go. Even where it's plentiful. Anyway, this is totally a no frills, take your crabs and go eat them somewhere else place. What do you get for $21? You get a large lump crab cake on a small but delicious bun, a 2 1/2 oz. bag of Herr Potato chips (any flavor). Hubs got the Old Bay seasoned ones. And you get a 12 oz. Soda any flavor or water bottle. They give you tartar sauce and cocktail sauce. It was amazing! So glad we made the U-turn to this place! read more

Food is good. Service is good. Place looks like any other seafood market. Why a 2 star you ask? 3% service charge for using my credit card. It cost business less than that if they took on the charge. They should just go to cash only. I'll never go there again. You want me to pay for some of your water/electricity too. Raise your price to compensate for your bill. read more

Pretty good no frills lunch stop. We actually had to make TWO U-turns... one to go in and another when we were leaving. But it was worth it. Only an outdoor portapotty and no space to sit inside. They bring you your order to your car. The lunch special crab cake sandwich for 2 people was only a little over $30 and it included a big bag of chips and a drink. Don't forget to ask for a sauce- the sandwich doesn't come with anything except the crabcake in a bun. I got the large lump, a few more shells than my partner said was in his jumbo lump cake. Wasn't much flavor in the cake but it also wasn't about filler and overpowering seasoning which was nice. Would stop here again! read more

I was in town visiting some friends and had a craving for crabs. I called several places and decided to go here. I was not disappointed at all. I purchased the male #2 and they were meaty, heavy and seasoned good. I also ordered a half of pound of shrimp which was good. The price was very reasonable, I will definitely be back. The staff were very pleasant. read more

Crab Shack - Seafood Near Me - Easton, Maryland

It's a crab shack! Looks like and feels like a road side crab shack. Been trying to find a great crab shack for years but never could find a spot for crabs. Spotted this joint on the other side of the road. I check in to hotel yelped the shack and they was closing in a hour so I drove there. It was 3 miles from hotel Picked the special which was 24 crabs for $30.00 added a jumbo lump crab cake for $16 And some gear so I could get back to the girls room to start cracking. I could only finish 16 crabs and the crab cake sandwich and help up the white flag. Crabs was full and sweet, not a fan of the seasoning, I find it too salty. The crab cake was really good. Will come back for sure. read more

Don't assume that this location serves a lesser quality because of its size!! Ahhhh, sooooo tasty!!! Although the drive is about 45 minutes or so, always satisfied with the quality of these delicious crabs. Comparing to other crab spots, the price has been decent. Can't wait to put my phone order in this Spring and make my drive to Crab Shack!! Worth it!! Always pleased with these delectables. read more

We stopped based on Yelp reviews...and glad that we did! Friendly woman behind the counter had 6 #1 jimmies in a bag, freshly steamed in all of 5 minutes. Price was $22. These were delicious, meaty and obviously fresh. We didn't buy anything else but will certainly stop again if nearby for more crabs. read more

Probably the best crab cake sandwich I've ever had - WOW! I tried the jumbo size with steamed Silver Queen corn on the cob. Every bite of the sandwich was incredible. The corn was perfect, and it was also really nice how they steamed the corn still in the husk (instead of taking off the husk first and then boiling). The husk and strings came right off easily through this method. There is no seating inside or outside so it's takeaway only. Inside there are some Maryland souvenirs. It's possible to also buy frozen crab cakes to also take away, and they even have little coolers with ice if you need them. Highly recommended! read more

The worst U turn I ever made... The crab cakes were a little bland and needed lots of seasoning. They also gave me a negative non inclusive vybe. read more

Sure, seafood is expensive, especially Crab, oh well, deal with it or eat pasta. Their Crab Cake sammich was the best I've ever had. Cooked perfectly, no burnt oil flavor and not over cooked. Met this guy Dwayne in the parking lot while waiting for my order, made my trip from CT even better. Offered me some venison he recently "Procured", he was the epitome of the guy you wished was your next door neighbor. Hats off to the Crab Shack and Dwayne. read more

went to the crab shack for Mother's Day got two dozen crabs they didn't have number ones so I'm assuming we got the next ones down.. they was horrible no meat wet falling apart.. not sure if the moon has anything to do with that but if so they shouldn't sell them or give people heads up to make that choice.. this is not our first time going there and any-other time the food was great.. also got two pounds of shrimp that wasn't bad.. corn tasted good. read more

Very disappointed in my purchase of 2 dozen #1 crabs. More than half of them were the minimum 5 1/2" and not very heavy at the cost of $95. Have gotten crabs here before, but will now go elsewhere Check your order before leaving the store! Also unhappy that owner did not return phone call when I called about my concern read more

Whenever we are coming from over the bridge we stop here. Now I'm a crab snob...extra large males or better - nothing less. HOWEVER , from Crab Shack I'll eat a mixed dozen. That taste sooooogood and are usually very heavy you won't mind them being small. Trust me. The jumbo lump crab cake sandwich is also amaze ! On our last visit we also tried the crab devil eggs, nothing really special about them. Kinda like a one and done. Overall This place is the perfect spot to buy crabs for large gatherings because the price is right and the crabs are DELISH! read more

Worst crabs I've gotten on the eastern shore. They lie about their sizes and charge you for larger crabs and then mix them with smaller crabs. Gave them two tries, both times the crabs were light and had to throw away bad ones each time. We understand it happens but it's way too frequent with this establishment. Spoke with an employee and let them know how disappointed we were. Will not return. read more

Crab Shack - Empty disgusting small crabs. Paid for large - Seafood Near Me - Easton, Maryland

Eastern Shore native that has been here plenty since the year they opened but never again. This place became a tourist trap. Our half bushel was cold when handed to me, and half the crabs (no exaggeration) were mealy and smelled of ammonia, as if no one was culling the dead crabs and cooked the dead and live mixed. Have some standards! This is how people get sick if they don't eat crabs often and know any better. Owner Casey Higgins eventually responded to me on Facebook but was all talk and no action when they offered to make it right. They never followed through or responded to me when I tried to get my replacement crabs. Disappointing because this place used to be decent, not the best on the shore but they used to at least have consistent quality. read more

Excellent crabs at a reasonable price. We like to get the crab and shrimp combo. Very convenient location.

The best in quality, service, and the most friendly people you will ever meet! We enjoy crabs there every week! Long time patron!

We pass by this place all the time and decided to finally give it a try on our way home. We picked up a dozen of the #1 Choptanks and they were delcious. The staff were super nice and the wait wasn't long at all. Nice crab spot in my opinion. read more

Crab Shack - interior with menu - Seafood Near Me - Easton, Maryland

I was absolutely delighted by my experience here. While on a trip to University of MD Eastern Shore, I made mental note of the Crab Shack for the ride back home. We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and they weren't too busy. I was struck by the offer of 2 dozen crabs for $30. This applied to females and smaller males. I ended up getting a dozen each. They were fresh, seasoned well, and sufficiently meaty. It's to go only, so keep that in mind. I would definitely go back if I were ever back in this area. read more

A fluke. No, not the fish. The way we found it. No ambience at all BUT the best seafood. Generally I am not a fan of crabcakes. But I tried them and they were a 10. Perfect, delicious, moist Lunch for the two of us came to $31. Seems sort of high since we ate in the car Really delicious meal. Can't rave about this little hole in the wall anymore than this review. Sincerely should try it read more

Amazing prices and freshness through the roof! Stopped last year to get a bushel of crabs only paid like $60! Beautifully seasoned and cooked will be back this year!! read more

Not sure why there are no good reviews for this place. We've always had great steamed crabs here as well as raw crabcakes we took to travel and cook at home. Good specials and nice staff. read more

The crabs are great! I rode over an hour to get there and it was worth the ride! I will definitely visit again

Locals love this place because of their quality food and prices!!! Staff is friendly and helpful.

Bought half bushel of #1's and very dissappointed, numbers 2's thrown in and light. Will not go back. For the price should be all #1's and heavier. read more

This is our "go to" place for crabs/shrimp/corn. Crabs are always a little pricy no matter where yo go....but they make it worth it. We typically call ahead our order. Service is always friendly. read more

I have been getting crabs here for as long as I can remember and they have always been good. They are moist, heavy and their crab boil has a great flavor. The only reason they did not get a 5 star rating is that they appear to be on the expensive side compared to other crab shacks in the area. I was there today (early in the season) and #2 males were $45.00/dozen. read more

Bret crabs in town at an amazing price! Stop what you're doing and get grabs from here now!

Awww they were wonderful. I'm sad that I passed them for years. Very friendly staff, good crabs. I recommend .fair prices too.

"The Best U-Turn You'll Ever Make" sign for us so we turned around and went inside for crab cake sandwiches. They did not disappoint!!! Crunchy on the outside, full of delicious crab inside. read more

Got 2 dozen #1 males. The crabs were seasoned very nicely. They were a little small and some were light. They made up for it with giving us at least an extra 8-10 crabs! We ate and ate and still have almost a dozen left. I really appreciate that if the crabs are light they compensate by giving more! There is NOTHING better then Maryland crabs in the summer!!! read more

excellent...omg...dont pass this place by...the crabs were large, fresh n heavy
