had some crabs the other day. orders were fullfilled quickly . crabs were meaty but a little light on the old bay seasoning. prices are generally pretty good though they have been up for the big ones most of the season. This year they introduced sweet corn steamed in old bay which was good and loaded with the old bay missing from the crabs. you can buy everything you need such as paper and extra seasoning if you heart desires. scheduled times can vary day to day and causes a lot of havoc and hazardous conditions out front. delivery of the crabs is pretty quick though so the kaos is generally short lived. Sundays you can only buy at 10 am. We've come to affectionately call this guy the crab nazi after the soup nazi on seinfeld. he does all his advertising on facebook . if you happend to comment and he does not like the comment he blocks you. five years ago i commented that 10 was too early for me on sundays and i was blocked. so now i have to go through other facebook accounts to view the times. seems silly for a business man to act this way but thats how he operates.

I lived in Maryland most my life. In 2011 I moved to Florida. When on Vacation I always get Crabs from you guys. Never a disappointment. Thank you for the great crabs today. It was worth the 30 minutes wait.

Been getting crabs here for years, always great crabs! Employees are always very nice and helpful. You Got to get there quick though because they have very large lines when they open and can tend to sell out quick.. This is the best crab spot in maryland. Highly recommend them!

The family and I were really craving crabs. We went to our local crab spot. They never disappoint! We got a half bushel of number 1 males with extra JO spice and a quarter bushel of the crab corn. My family and I really enjoyed the full meaty crabs and the sweet corn. Needless to say we will be returning soon for more of those delicious crabs!

Wish I could give 0 stars. Got a bushel of 1’s live. Half were dead, paper thin shells my finger could go through. Barely legal size. Awful. Never buying here again

This used to be a good deal with the tradeoff being not being able to call-ahead to reserve crabs, not knowing hours until the day-of, terrible facility upkeep and cleanliness, etc. This year the prices are very high and about the same as everywhere else... with the other places you don't have the tradeoff's though which makes this place no longer worth it.

I've been buying from here for years. Today I got some of the worst crabs ever. Very mushy and smelled like ammonia. I was hoping it was just 1or two but it was more. I purchased 1/2 bushel #1 today around 2pm. Very bad. I should get a refund.

Do not comment on their Facebook page! They will block you and then you can't see their prices or times. Really stupid.
Bring cash. They will rape you on the credit card fee.

Been Buying crabs here for years but won't be back. Ordered 1/2 Bushel of No. 1 Males and ended up geting barely leagal crabs. The photo was about the average size. In addition, they were caked with old bay seasoning to the point that large chuncks were falling off when you picked them up. I also ordered a dozen ears of corn which was also overloaded with old bay. Had to wash most of it off.
I am obviously from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. And we get our crabs from New Jersey. Well, I've been in Maryland now. 1 or 10 years and I will not eat another crab if it is not a Merlin crab, because their crabs are meteor they're more tasty and. All I can say is Bone appetite

Drove all the way from Havre De Grace for some crabs. They told myself and a few other customers that all they had left were number one males and extra large males,They sold me a quarter bushel of smalls for $129. They also said that they just opened up! How in the world did you sell out what was advertised but sell me the same thing that were mysteriously sold out before you opened at a higher price?Also, why are you charging a twenty dollar fee for a debit or a credit card? I call that extortion. Buyer's beware!

For many years bought crabs here with no issue and 1 time this year decided to buy live crabs. Putting them in the steamer I realized there were barely 2 dozen crabs in this half bushel whereas the cooked bushel has twice as much. Remembered when they were being put in the box they were stuck together so the box was mostly filled with air. Someone asked on a post on their FB about live crabs and I let them know my experience and suggested steamed. This resulted in being blocked. It's funny as there are many places to buy crabs but I thought I would let people know what type of childish clown runs this place. And again unless you want to be ripped off, don't buy live crabs from this guy.

Extra large are not all large, it should be for the price and called extra large ?

Advertise one price , for #2 size crabs get there and told that they didn't have #2's only #'1's and the cost was higher ,which should cost more. Get them home and find out we got taken! there was no way they were #1's. Won't be going back. Buyer Beware.
this is a review of the large crab cake only...
