We were visiting family in the area over Labor Day weekend and my brother-in-law told me it was…read moreblue crab season. So of course, I requested it for one of our meals during our visit. We did try to catch them ourselves, but they weren't biting! LOL. Instead of going out to eat at a restaurant, I suggested we do a takeout order to be able to take our time and fully enjoy at home. Years ago, we had the crabs at a restaurant and it took me HOURS to pick them! I think my brother-in-law felt bad (and the rest of the family was getting impatient) and started picking the last few for me, because it was taking soooooo long! He suggested we go to Crab Knockers, a local seafood shop that sells fresh seafood, but that also cooks it for you! Inside, they have old arcade games with a fishing themed decor. They have a case full of seafood with a combo of locally sourced and brought in from other places. The shop was quite busy with a steady flow of patrons. We got 2 dozen blue crabs, steamed with J.O. seasoning (medium spice) and it came out to roughly $60! It took about 20-25 minutes or so. When we got home, we got right to work. My brother-in-law showed me the proper way Marylanders (is that the proper term?) and I think I got the hang of it by the 3rd crab hahaha. Even my oldest managed well! Crabs were delicious! Some claws were a little overcooked, but that's just the nature of seafood and takeout. The body meat was perfect! There is a lot of work for these little guys, but it fed me and my oldest as our only dinner and a few other family members who ate one or two. We even had enough crab meat for two crab cakes for breakfast the next day! I highly suggest checking them out. It's less expensive and less work in terms of cooking (and mess)! I'll definitely ask for crabs again next time we visit! Enjoy and go out and support!

Easy 5 stars! First time ordering crabs (1/2 bushel females) and ordering over the phone was easy,…read moreemployees friendly and helpful. Crabs were cooked within 20 min of me placing the order, crabs seasoned generously with J.O., and they were cooked perfectly. The crabs weren't wet like some other establishments. Crabs were fat and full of eggs! And if you know me and my family, and majority of Asians, we LOVE our eggs! Wait, what?! Crab meat was sweet, eggs and crab buttah tasty...what more can you ask. There's several seafood markets in St. Mary's county and I'll be putting Crabknockers on the top of my list whenever I need a crab/seafood fix in the future. I will definitely be spending my hard earned cash here in the future. Highly recommended! Check them out, you won't be disappointed. Oh, they sell snakehead fillets, too! YEAH!

The Peppered Ham and Swiss was heated, lightly spiced, with bread that was fresh and soft. The sandwiches are comparable to the price point, which is on the higher side. They additionally have sodas, desserts, fresh seafood, which can be cooked to your specification: grilled, fried, Steamed. They also are available on Uber Eats & Door Dash. Overall, definitely a good stop!

So disappointing…read more I've been there several times and enjoyed the sandwiches. But I don't like having to unwrap my order to check to make sure they haven't--once again--given me someone else's. Drive a little farther and get service where people care about what they're doing.

The food truck is open Thursday through Sunday from around 11 AM to 7 PM I believe. Let me start…read morethis by saying I am from the south and we eat a lot of fried foods in especially fried seafood. I moved here and I was looking for a good place to eat that reminded me of home. At the time it had been pretty hard to find. I decided to stop by this food truck one day when I was on the way home from work. The guy that works there is very nice and patient. I ordered the two pieces of tilapia, six jumbo shrimp, one crabcake, and it came with fries and two hush puppies. Everything was amazing and reminded me of home. All of the food was cooked crispy, and it was not soggy or floppy. Everything was seasoned perfectly, not over season or under season. And the service was quick, it might have took 10 minutes. Everything is always fresh and it never taste like seafood. If you eat a lot of seafood, then you understand what I mean, yes, it is seafood, but it is not supposed to have that fishey smell. Overall, I wish I could give this place a 10 out of 5, but I will settle for a five out of five. Also, the seasoned butter sauce that he has is great.

My sister, my granddaughter and I went out today to get our Christmas tree. After looking at a few…read moreother places and not finding any that we liked, we ended up at Chesapeakes Bounty in St. Leonard, MD. We parked, got out of the car and started looking at the trees. A gentleman came over (with a cute elf hat on) and he took the time to answer any questions that we had about the different trees. He showed us the area that had the size trees we were interested in getting. He told us to be careful as the ground was saturated from the melting snow. He was so kind to my granddaughter and even agreed to pose for a picture with her. The selection of trees was better the any we had seen elsewhere, it was clean and the trees were organized by size and price with plenty of room to walk around each tree. I told Will, the man that was helping us, that Chesapeake Bounty will be my go to not only for our yearly Christmas tree but all year round! Thank you for the Christmas cheer and Merry Christmas!!

Roys is a seafood market along the highway near Colonial Beach. I just stopped in for some…read moreoysters. They were some of the best tasting oysters that I have had. I will definitely try them again from Roy's. I asked if they had any fresh fish but it wasn't available when I stopped by but he said he had some vacuum packed frozen striped bass. I wasn't sure but went ahead and bought. It turned out great. Lastly I will say the building is kinda rough looking and so is the indoors. I think a little clean up to both would make the store more inviting and would increase traffic.
