I'll never understand the bad reviews. I've been coming here for over ten years to get my jumbo crabs, they've never been anything but PERFECT and on time. I've grown up crabbing as a kid and we know size and cooking, and Chesapeake does it right!The cost of course is market value and fluctuates. The building is so cute, feels like you're stepping into a seafood shop on the coast somewhere. The service has always been friendly and helpful! They carry mostly everything you'd need and their seasoning is a MUST!Only thing I was not happy with was a surcharge for credit card, that's it.

We ordered large crabs for our anniversary party from Chesapeake Crab Connection and upon examination of the crabs we found them to actually be smalls and they looked and tasted horrible , my father used to go crabbing every weekend and is well informed about the subject , he told us the crabs were dead long before they cooked them for us ( a big no no) and said they were not safe to eat,we called them and the owner called us liars and hung up on us! Do not buy seafood from these people the owner is unhinged and unwilling to help the situation ( unsafe food ) in any way,you were warned!

So here is my experience. Ordered XL crabs this morning. They told me they had them in. Got there and was told they had to add large crabs to the order because their truck was late. Then they almost charged me $116 for crabs and then they caught the error and charged me less. There is also a sur-charge for credit cards. Then I get home 7min later to find Luke warm crabs. Had to put them in the oven. This is twice now I have had issues.Ok just finished. Horrible crabs. Light, no flavor, not MD crabs, just poor quality. $100 wasted.

Great crabs ! Correct me if I'm wrong but they take ebt! Excellent service! My crabs are always hot and seasoned, never been dissatisfied by going here. It would've been nice if it was a restaurant! But it is very clean in there. All the times I been there they were very professional I 10/10 would recommend, I would love it even more if they were open on weekdays... that's why they have a 4/5 !

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Purchased 6 live lobsters today. 3 of which had broken claws and damaged exposed meat. Refused a refund even though I was never given the chance to look at them prior to being bagged and paid for. Returned within 30 mins of picking up. The customer service was awful. The guy working knew he was in the wrong and still still didn't do anything to rectify. Beware. Apparently owners decision. Shame on you. Do better.

We used to love getting our crab and lobsters here. Just stopped by two days in a row, both times closed, even though they had a sign posting hours they were open. Drove 30 minutes each time. Extremely disappointed. Need to find another source for seafood.

I ordered a bushel of crabs to be delivered on Saturday. They said to expect delivery at noon and at noon my crabs came. They came with a mallet , bibs, little things to pry crabs out with and lots of spices and seasoning.So, a lot of the crabs only had one claw. Not sure whether they got into a fight or what? Lots of missing claws. Other than that I would order again and they were delicious.Oh, the other thing of concern is that I paid almost $73 shipping for overnight. When I read the invoice it showed that it shipped on Thursday at 4 PM. If I don't get them till Saturday at noon, how old were my crabs and why did I pay for such a cost for shipping? They were plentiful, tasty, some bumps in the road but I think I would order again!

Love this place they are always accommodating and helpful. I tend to do my shopping at the last minute but they are always helpful plus if I need something cooked they are more than willing to.. you do have to wait as a lot of people call in orders and I have seen many come in feeling rather entitled since they called. But they have always worker to get things done as quickly as possible.. plus the seafood is excellent

I bought the 1/2 Bushel Small and Medium mixed for $99 on 29 August at the Columbia location. Worst crabs I have had from your store all summer and I am a regular. 99% of the crabs in the box were Small if we had two or three Mediums we were lucky. Quite of few which I should have measured didn't even look legal. Threw away at least a half dozen didn't look or smell good to eat. Very disappointed in the quality, maybe it's because I ordered during the week, I usually order on Saturday. I DON'T like re-heated crabs, when I order I expect the crabs to be cooked just before I pick them up. Re-heated crabs us like re-heated pizza they suck. I always get XL-Crabs, got a dozen the week before, ordered them through Holly as usual they were excellent and hot. Guess I will have to order on the weekend and dealing with Holly from now on.....Thank you
