Heres my review…. I came Mother’s day morning 5/11/25 around 9:20 am . About 10 pple ahead of me and quickly became 10 pple behind me lol . They move very fast . Now about the crabs I got 2 dz of medium crabs for $25/dz with hot and mild $2/seasonings. Set the crabs in my sink for about 2 hrs before i cooked them and let me say none of my crabs died !!! About 18 of them were heavy and filled with meat . They were so fresh and didnt leave a smell at all!!I will be going back! This will be my new spot . I wished they sold butter too lol. Check them out ! One con for me was that they are located in the middle of the street. You have to stand where traffic is coming which is unsafe !
🤣🤣🤣Update I been here 4 times since this day . They are so meaty 🤞🏿 they stay like this . Employees are nice as well. Always friendly . I have to ask their names next visit . My toddler and I just had potatoes and crabs for breakfast 😂 . This time i didnt cook them in beer and only added the seasoning i purchased from them and they still taste so fresh and good. Picture (Crabs in the bowl)btw Sorry we ate all the claws first they were huge !

This was my first time steaming live crabs. I got a half bushel of the #1 Jersey Males. Pickup was super easy and the man picked through every crab to make sure they were alive as he counted them out. I have eaten plenty of cooked blue crabs in my life and these were by far the meatiest and sweetest ones I've ever had. Will be coming back here going forward. Highly recommend!

I visited Phils for the first time a few weeks ago and got the special that was going on at the time, 2 dozen live crabs for $33. Phil isn’t a man of many words because he be workin! Lol, but his energy was A1 and great customer service is all I accept when I patronize. This was my first time making my own crabs and those bad boys did not disappoint. I’ll be back tomorrow for some mo! Thanks Phil ❤️

Easily the best, most consistently good live crabs in Philly. Been going there about 10 years, never had a bad crab. Crabs always lively and fresh. And the prices are very fair, especially for the high quality. Next best thing to being on the chesapeake. Thanks Phil's

Love there blue crabs ….only spot I go to when I come to south Philly
Great crabs and great prices. My go-to place for best crabs in the area. Also, being able to order ahead is fantastic! Love when those shipments of Louisiana come in.... monsters.

Sorry I missed you on Saturday, thank you for holding my bushel of #1 males. They were large, not one of them was dead. My friends in N.J. enjoyed the crabs and how large they how large they were.Thank you Sam
