    capt greg had great crabs now someone else is cooking crabs and running the operation. the crabs…read morewere horrible. I bought 2 dozen #1 males. They were full of water. When you pulled off a claw, water ran out of the shell. The meat was watery and terrible. Don't waste your money. Heads up, you are supposed to steam crabs not boil them in water.These people do not know how to cook crabs.

    I have been a fan of Captain Greg's for quite some time. I have even referred quite a few people…read morethere over the years. They usually don't disappoint with the size of the crab, and the flavor of the crab used to be on point. They have been in Mechanicsville for years. The last couple of times I visited left me questioning my loyalty. I have been trying a couple of places in the area, and maybe I'm particular about crab and how it's prepared. When I buy anything, regardless of what it is, customer service can ruin the experience. I purchased crabs from here a couple of weeks ago and the lady at the register refused to put the crab seasoning on the crabs (I thought that was the idea). I hate a bland crab! I have tried Crab's, crab boils, sauteed crabs, steamed crabs etc... Yes size does matter, but not if they are bland. During the second visit, I was happy the owner was present ( he's nicer). He tried to accommodate me, however I requested female crabs (my preference) and when I arrived home I had male Crab's. Yes ! They were nice and meaty, but tasted like rubber. I was so disappointed, and upset, but at this point I was over it. It's a shame because I had been hankering some Crab's and 3 day's later, I still have the Crabs. I tried to doctor them up but, no bueno! I have purchased Crab's from places I didn't expect to like, and they were better than Captain Greg's! I don't think I will be returning, but I guess I'm particular.

    Super clean , quick service, always fresh! I love the customer service everytime I come here. I…read morenever have an issue with parking. The inside is very clean.

    DO NOT COME HERE. I…read morepurchased a 1/2 bushel of crabs from this establishment, and unfortunately, many of the crabs were mostly legs and mushy. I contacted Tim regarding the issue, and he told me that I could come back to the store and they would credit me a few dozen crabs. While I knew that a few dozen would not fully compensate me for the quality of the 1/2 bushel I purchased, I was willing to accept it as a resolution. I called Tim less than an hour before coming to the store, and he specifically told me that I was good to go. When I arrived, however, the woman working there told me there was nothing she could do and that she would not take care of the situation. I have spent hundreds of dollars at this establishment, so to be treated this way as a returning customer is extremely disappointing and unacceptable. What made the situation even worse was that Tim then claimed he thought I was the person he had spoken to a few weeks ago--despite the fact that we had spoken less than an hour earlier about this exact issue. This was not only a disappointing product experience, but also a terrible customer service experience. If a manager makes a commitment to a customer, the store should honor it. I should not have to come into the store and argue with an employee over a resolution that was already discussed and approved. Horrible service, poor communication, and unacceptable attitudes. I will not be returning.

    Where have you been all my life? How sweet is this little organic, neighborhood grocery store? I'm…read moreso glad a happened upon it while having lunch on Bellevue! I walked it and was immediately enthralled by the displays, shelving and All the fresh foods! It looked like an old fashioned grocer from yesteryear, but with a modern twist. At first I was just checking the place out... but soon I grabbed a cute wire basket and stocked up on blackberries the size of your thumb! I also got some other fruits and veggies, some local popping corn, some kitchenware, snacks and the creme de la creme... nightingale ice cream sandwiches! The best treats around! Spice up you life in the seasoning shelf... browse the cookbooks... pick up some natural cleaning products... check out the beauty and health section with essential oils! I wasn't going straight home so I had to pass up the dairy case and the frozen foods, but I'll definitely be back for some cage free eggs!! Check out was delightful as the woman thoughtfully and carefully packed my goods. She also looked up sulfite free wines for me and said she hoped to be getting them in. I never mind spending money on great quality and outstanding service. Ya get what you pay for folks, and here you have hit the jackpot! This green grocer is just what this area needed and I hope it sticks around for a long time! It has my support! Hooray for Little House Green Grocery! Ike Godsey would be proud!!
