We just ate there for the first time today. All our food was delicious and plentiful. My husband said his fries were amazing. Will definitely dine there again.
First time trying this cafe today and WOW…we will definitely be back! My husband and I shared the Poseidon platter and it was delicious!
Super nice, helpful and friendly staff.
Very clean and efficiently run establishment.
Super tasty fresh fish po' boy today. The Boston Blue was perfectly fried and the roll nicely toasted. And the salt & vinegar chips paired well, too.

The Fat Crab Cafe is a charming seafood restaurant that offers a variety of delicious and fresh seafood dishes. The menu features classic options like fish and chips, cod, and New England Chowder, all praised for their excellent quality. The restaurant is BYOB, allowing customers to enjoy their meals with their own beverages. The service is friendly and efficient, creating a casual and enjoyable dining experience.
Customers have been pleasantly surprised by the restaurant's small size, which is more than made up for by the exceptional flavors. The Chesapeake Bay raw oysters, available for a special weekend deal, are particularly noteworthy, with large and fresh options. The fish and chips, with their three large fillets and perfectly cooked fries, have also received high praise. The New England clam chowder, though a bit pricey, is described as having a generous amount of clam pieces and being very good.
While the restaurant's plain appearance and limited seating may not be the most impressive, the quality of the food and the convenient location next to a seafood store make it a hidden gem worth trying.
