Mel's Crabs

Mel's crabs are amazing! Fresh, full and priced right! This gem is the place to go. It's not far from DC and convenient. Just pull up, order and you're all set. Supporting local businesses is the way to go. I really dislike going to the wharf downtown, who wants to park in a garage, lug or have lugged crabs? Such a pain. Mel's is awesome.

Usually get good crabs, sometimes you get one that doesn't survive. Last weekend I bought a dozen #1 males and almost half were small enough to be #2. I emailed Mel and instead of trying to work with me or apologize he just said I'm lying. Many other places to get crabs in Huntingtown or Chesapeake beach to get bad customer service and not what you paid for.

I went to this place because I heard he had nice soft shell crabs so we purchased 2 dozens of them for $90.00. When we got home we were so ready to fry them up and once they were un- thawed that's when we got the surprises they were so small that it had to be illegal to to keep them. I will ever go to a place for this again.

I have been going to Mels for years they never seem to disappoint me Especially when I want to cook my own and there prices are good too

Always willing to work with you, gives a flyer with great tips and facts when you order crabs from him and the crabs were full and sweet!
