Keller Crawfish Krawl

Crawfish, boudin, and beer YUM YUM.What a fun little festival. And of all of our Yelp friends that attended, I guess we were the only ones that got any crawfish. Sorry Eric and Marianne, I guess Doug and I ate them all.This was my first trip to Keller and boy did we have a great time. The Crawfish Krawl is on two blocked off streets. The street we were on was full of vendors, food, and beer. The other was the kids section. We tried to take a look but were turned away because we had a beer in our hands. I guess this is ok but seemed a little over protective to me. The line for the crawfish was really long but luckily we walked around for a bit and when we returned we walked right up and got our mud bugs and we enjoyed every one in our 3 pound tray.After we finished eating we walked around and looked at the vendor booths. One of which was selling some of the best cupcakes I've had in ages. Dang they were so good.We decided to have another beer and watch the band that started. It was a southern rock band and they were pretty good.We had a fun time and would not be surprised it we show up again next year.

Decided to walk over to Old Town Keller and check out the activities. Weather was not the greatest, and the threat of rain was in the air. In fact it did sprinkle a little, but I had moved on by then. On the plus side temperature was cool, and crowds were lite. I did not see an option for a small serving, so I just hung around listening to the music. Not sure if the $20 for a regular serving was a good deal, but the smell was fantastic. If Thuy was here I'm sure we would have gone for it.Maybe it was just my timing, but the line to buy the tickets was really long, yet tables were only about half occupied. Didn't really see many other food options, but I didn't look to hard either. Cupcakes, Dippin' Dots and I think snow cones. There was an "alcohol free zone" too. A few arts and crafts vendors too. Well, hopefully next year will be better, as this is an annual event. Oh, looked like Bronson Rock was doing their own crawfish event (perhaps still are). I meant to walk over to see, but got distracted by the band. Bottom line: Do you suck the heads? PS. I do think it's pretty cool that it was free to get in.

The Keller Crawfish Krawl is a fun event that you need to check out when it comes to Keller. This was our first time and we had a good time. It is free to park and get into the festival. You will have to find parking. You will need to buy coupons to eat the Crawfish boil and to get a beer. The cost is 20 dollars for I think 3 pounds of crawfish with corn and potatoes. This amount was plenty for 2 people. Five dollars for a beer on tap. And they have a good selection of beers. The event is not real big it located in old downtown Keller. Just one small block with tables lined up in the middle to sit and eat. With vendors along the side selling things. And at the end there is a stage with a band playing. The street over is for kids. I'm not sure what they have over there.The crawfish was very good. I had a crawfish boil once before but was not impressed. But this crawfish boil was very good. So much so that I would eat one again. We had a nice time very laid back. The line for the crawfish can get long and you will have to find a seat. But we had a good time and will be back next year.

You have to be there early to get a hold of their crawfish. The event is until 9pm but when we get there at around 730pm crawfish is already sold out. I was bummed because that's the main reason for my visit. However, they have beers, wine, and other booths which offered different fairs like kettle corn, beignets(sold out too) turkey legs, pralines. Etc. Will I come back? Maybe. If I do if make sure to get there early.

Had a great time- Food was good!- could have been hotter but we are glad we went!! Car show addition was nice!
