The Surfing Crab, Restaurant, Crab House, Lewes, Delaware, Delaware Beaches

Haha starting with bread pudding first. Some of us can afford to do that and others have to exercise restraint.

We were at The Surfing Crab located at 16723 Coastal Highway. In Lewes, Delaware. Going north past the town on Lewes.

A craving for crabs is what we had. We called their telephone 302-644-4448 to reserve extra large crabs to be eaten there. You can also have take out. Surfing Crab has a full menu with really good food, as well.

Do you like hush puppies? An order of hush puppies , of course. Sophia made a sauce with Ketchup and Vinegar too.

Then those enormous crabs made an entrance. They were so sweet. We started picking, talking, a few beers and only took home 3.

I dipped the meat in vinegar. Others like butter too but vinegar was it last night.

Picking crab for me is relaxing and very social.

These are my first crabs of 2024. At The Surfing Crab the atmosphere is casual and fun. Great service by the way.

Check them on Social Media….At the moment they close Monday and Tuesday.???

Hot Steamed Fat Crabs, Lazy Susan’s, Crab House, Restaurant, Review, Lewes, Delaware Beaches, A Holiday Week-End at the Delaware Beaches, Crabs are a Must!!

Here I go again.  I love picking crabs.  This past week, a craving for steamed crabs took me to Lazy Susan’s located at 18289 Coastal Highway (Rt. 1), Lewes.  Tel. 302-645-5115.  There is plenty of parking.  The reason why I am also posting.  A holiday week-end brings so many people to the beaches.  Parking is a test for patience.

I thought Lazy Susan’s would be crowded.  Surprise Surprise; it was not.  The whole place to ourselves.

When I go to Lazy Susan’s is because I want to eat crabs; that’s all I pretty much order.  They have been in business since 1984.  It is a true crab house.  But, if that’s not what you want; they do have a full menu.

We ordered large crabs.  They were so heavy and sweet.  Plenty of seasoning.  A little corn too.

Melted butter and apple cider vinegar for dipping.

There are more than a few crab house in the area.  I support them all.  I have been going to Lazy Susan’s for a long time.  So, it is one of my favorites.  If you really want to pick crabs, now you know where to go.

The service was great, the crabs were awesome….nothing else to talk about.

Have a good one!!

Note:  Lazy Susan’s is on Facebook!!  And, it has Gluten Free Beer!!

The Surfing Crab, Fat Blue Crabs, Lewes, Delaware, Crab House, All You Can Eat, Restaurant, Full Bar, Review, Open 7 Days a Week, Delaware Beaches,

Crabs and more crabs.  I really do love them.  There is something about them.  A pile of crabs, pitchers of beers, if so desired, and the picking of the crabs talking with fellow diners.  At the Delaware Beaches we have several restaurants considered crab houses.  I go to all of them.  As long as my crabs are heavy, and a decent size, there is nothing better than the taste of a blue crab.

The Surfing Crab is located at 16723 Coastal Highway, just north of Lewes, Delaware.  There is plenty of parking.  You know how important that is at this time of the year.  Tel. 302-644-4448.  Website?  http://www.thesurfingcrab.com.  It does not take long from Rehoboth Beach.  They open Monday to Friday from 4 p.m. until 9 p.m.  Saturday and Sunday from Noon until 9 p.m.

There is more on the menu than crabs, but for me, that’s all I go there for.  I have also ordered them steamed to go.

If you go today, you will find that they have all sizes; even those large ones.

The Surfing Crab has all you can eat crabs, as well.  They will come with fries, coleslaw, and potato salad.  No sharing, you need to eat the whole crab and there is a limit of 2 hours.

Crabs are steamed to order, unless you call in.

There is also a full bar available.

I would have to say that they have been consistently good.  Their prices are also competitive with everyone else.  Crabs are expensive, that’s a given, but worth it.

So, if you are in the mood for crabs, now you know where to go.

Let me know how you like them….talk to you later.
