Hanging Out With Crabs
Today Crabby Bob’s is more than just a floating crab shack - it is a quaint landing place for seafood lovers and a popular hang-out for visitors that love sitting down near the water. Tucked in at the Fisherman’s wharf amongst the seals, fishes and sounds of swinging boat masts, you can sit on the new deck and relax while Abby cooks up the perfect crab of your choice. Select from the many tubs of live seafood she has on board that you can grab and go, or everything can be prepared for you. Crabby Bob’s is now in its 15th year. The business has grown from Bob selling live crabs from his boat, to the crab shack owned and operated by Abby Morris. Open all year round, even the winter is a great time to feast on one of Abby’s seafood platters packed perfectly to go, or fresh homemade seafood Chowder. Written by Cathy Kaardal
Open Daily 10am-6pm Fisherman’s Wharf, Beside the Discovery Pier

We had just finished tucking our five kids into bed when three-yearold Billy began to wail. Turns out, he had accidentally swallowed a penny and was sure he was going to die. Desperate to calm him, my husband palmed a penny that he had in his pocket and pretended to pull it from Billy’s ear. Billy was delighted. In a flash, he snatched it from my husband’s hand, swallowed it, and demanded, “Do it again!”
