Definitely one of the best seafood markets around. On one side is Jessie Taylor's fresh seafood. And what a selection - whole variety of fish, shrimp, and every size of live crabs - including Texas Bulls! And across from the fresh market is Jessie Taylor cooked seafood - and you can take your live crabs over to have them cooked. They also have oysters and will shuck them, and some seafood plates. I love going there just to experience all the diverse seafood selection.
After an evening walk-through, as the stalls were cleaning up and shutting down shop, I had set my heart on soup the next day. Although it was only 10:30 in the morning, so kindly, they brought out the soups so we could have a small, hot bowl as we strolled back along the Wharf.
The Maryland Crab soup was a fantastic brunch, just as I suspected!
That place is awesome and the folks working there are great!

This is a really great fish market. They multiple stalls on floating barges, selling a plethora of different kinds of seafood. I think it’s really interesting seeing all the different kinds of fish and shellfish available for sale. The fish is very fresh and the fact that the majority of it is floating is really cool.
