“small sweet deli serving very delicious fried oysters, crabs, sandwiches and more! Easy to drive by but recommend stopping in, seems to have a lot of locals eating there. Super friendly service and seafood is good quality. We ordered the fried oysters, tuna sandwich, and crab soup.”

Crabs are the heart of the case. Steamed crabs are seasoned heavy and boxed to go; live crabs come out of the basket by the dozen or the bushel. Sizes change with the catch, so call ahead and ask what came in.

Call ahead

Ask us to hold some.

One reviewer called late on a Friday and still got her bushel. Do not count on it. Call (410) 822-5019 and we will tell you what we have, or fill in the slip and we call you back.
