Tyler's Tackle Shop & Crab House

Very good and meaty hot and juicy crabs. Great customer service! I will be back! I got the pick of the day and it was medium males. So delicious.

We picked up a dozen number ones last week. We ordered ahead, and they were ready when I arrived. They were big and full, and cooked perfectly. I guess they thought a few were small, and threw in a couple of extra. The staff was lovely. You can also purchase beverages, condiments, etc.

I had been doing crab research for the past week since this dang virus closed my regular crab spot. I wanted to get my mom some steamed crabs to celebrate Mother's Day weekend. I called Tyler's several times before finally getting through to someone. I placed my order for a dozen and a half of #1 males for $60/dozen since those were the largest they had and they told me they would have them ready when I arrived. It's about a 30-40 minute drive from Bowie but when I got there, my crabs were piping hot about 5 minutes later. The crabs were delicious. The seasoning they used was very tasty and they were steamed perfectly. My only complaint was that it was a mixed bag of various sizes of crabs - some small, some large, some light and some heavy. I would have preferred some consistency, but they got the job done. My mom enjoyed them, and I would definitely check them out again. Hopefully they will get some larger crabs as the season gets underway.

had some crabs last night call an ask if the crabs were heavy sure she said .They're the worst crabs that I ever had ,hardly any meat in them, an for the money they stole my money .for this ti of year they should be heavy ,65 a dozen crazy please tell the truth.for as much cost you lost a regular customer.

Stopped by on a whim in an attempt to satisfy a craving for crab legs. The woman assisted me immediately and I purchased 3 lbs on the spot. After what seemed like no time at all, they were perfectly steamed and I was given seasoning on the side. I returned home and gladly devoured in one sitting~ The crab legs were delicious, meaty and steamed perfectly. And even better with melted butter and paired with a beer. I hope to visit again before I return home and am definitely interested in adding a dozen male crabs to my order next visit.

Great service and they threw in an extra crab. Current price as of today is $65 for #1 male crab. You do not have to by a dozen! You can purchase the number you want and the cost per crab is the market price divided by 12! The steaming is very fast and served in a double brown bag with the seasoning, all bay, sprinkled or rather coating every crab. Not a sit down place, best to have them steam and go. They also have an assortment of fish filets, and varies size shrimp. Everything can be prepared for you and wrapped ready to eat at your destination!

Called for crab order mid week for Saturday. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Crabs were great. Pickup smooth and even ordered steamed shrimp upon pickup. Ready quickly. Tools and brown paper available for purchase.

I ordered 8 pounds of snow crab legs on Friday afternoon. I was told they were $17 a pound. I left my credit card number because I was having someone else pick them up. When I called to change the time I was told that they were now $20 a pound, which I didn't argue with. But when the crabs were picked up, the bag felt very light so I weighed them. It was only 5 pounds of crabs, but I was charged for the 8 pounds. I called to complain very politely, I was not given either an apology or even a small refund. Was only told that the 3 pound difference was the difference in weight was between frozen and steamed. Not very happy with the service or the price. The two stars is for the taste of the crabs, which was good, but I will not be going to Tyler's again.

Great crabs at great customer service. Call ahead and save yourself some time that day you'll have more time to get cracking!

Not fancy and items not diverse. But locals waiting in line for crabs and shrimp. Don't need a better recommendation!
