Captain Dan's Crabhouse

This place has excellent snow crab legs. I've never been disappointed with the size or the freshness of the snow crab legs however our last purchase of Jumbo male crabs at $150 a dozen was beyond disappointing. It felt like robbery. The pictures I post will speak for itself, there is no way that we were sold jumbo crabs. Luckily we only purchased a half dozen and were given exactly 6 crabs.PS my hand is not big.

We found our new favorite local crab spot ! Service and food was great. You don't need to go all the way to Baltimore inner harbor when you find this gem of a spot for your cravings of old bay Md crabs. We ordered their MD crab soup, cream of crab soup, coleslaw, and seasoned fries. They had several draft beers, and a convenient hand washing station to wash off the old bay seasoning. We'll be back each summer!

Listen, we have made the crab feast to be a yearly tradition since our 2020 review. Each year, people ask us where we get the crabs because they are so delicious.We live in Frederick. I'm sure we past tons of crab houses, but we continue to come to this one because they are just memorable. Ordering was a breeze. Picking up was a breeze. I appreciate the staff bringing them to my car. I appreciate the paper they provided to me. Their customer service was just great.We will definitely purchase again next year.

This was my first time at Captain Dan's. My niece who is also a crab lover recommended this spot. We were both craving crabs and we wanted to dine-in and relax. My niece called ahead to make sure that their dining room was opened, and it was. We arrived at 11:00 AM and we were greeted promptly by the two young ladies at the counter. We walked into the dining room and we had it all to ourselves until the lunch crowd started filtering in, and we were wrapping up our lunch by that time. Ireland was our Hostess and she was pleasant and attentive to our requests. She brought out our drinks, followed by the corn on the cob and then... the CRABS! The corn was hot, sweet and juicy. The CRABS were nicely seasoned, meaty, sweet and juicy too. We devoured the corn of the cob and the crabs. Because of the size, we were both pleased with 6 each. We left satisfied.I have to mention the sink in the dining room with the foot peddles. How convenient is that. I was able to wash my hands without touching any faucet handles. I think all crab houses should be required to have sinks with foot peddles in the dining room. YAH!!! I will definitely be back.P.S.: You may want to bring a bib.

The prices are reasonable, you get what you pay for and the food is great. The crab pretzels are huge and all the employees are very polite and smiling. Love going here when I get a chance.

Mike reached out to my mom after my dad's passing and acknowledged their patronage at Captain Dans. They even paid their respects at his service. This goes above and beyond. And shows what a stand up reputable business they are. My parents were regulars there for many years and our family will continue that transition for many more years to come. Thank you for your generosity and kindness towards my parents. Jen Green

I ordered the Oyster party platter to transport to PA for a Christmas eve family dinner. ( Feast of the 7 fishes). Captain Dans made it so easy to no stress and gave the perfect directions to keep everything safe ,cold and easy to serve.

We only call in orders for steamed crabs. They are big and delicious. We call our order in and they are hot and ready at the time requested

Nothing better!! Fat, heavy crabs, perfectly seasoned steamed shrimp, all prepared and presented by terrific staff! Just can't ask for anything more; (except that maybe the Orioles win 10 in a row!)

We had our annual family crab feast yesterday at Captain Dan's and as usual they catered to all of our needs! Excellent customer service and our server Hallie was outstanding! Great food and the crabs were fantastic! Thanks for making our annual trip to your establishment a great time to see family and share a wonderful meal! Cheers!!!
