Description

The Crab Shack is the place to go to eat great seafood in your bare feet. It's a fun, casual restaurant that has boasted the "best seafood in the area" (by readers of Savannah magazine) many times in the past decade. Choose to sit inside among the fun, colorful décor, or outside under a canopy of oak trees and enjoy the marsh scenery. Starting out as a marina and fish camp, the owners and guests would always make it a point to gather around the fresh catches of the day and enjoy the great food, company, and peaceful location they were fortunate enough to have. With help from local friends, the site later developed into the delectable restaurant it is today, with a menu that has grown from the original six-item list written on plywood when the Crab Shack first opened, to one of the most popular eateries in the area.
