Crafty Crab Menu USA Prices 2026

Seafood boils are the whole point of Crafty Crab. You pick your catch, pick one of the signature seasonings, pick your heat level, and it arrives in a bag, steaming and dripping with flavor. Every pound comes with potatoes and corn on the cob, no upcharge. Prices below are national averages for 2026.

Daily specials are the smart way to order at Crafty Crab. These are loaded bags that mix a premium item with shrimp, sausage, eggs, corn and potatoes for less than ordering each separately. The Blue Crab Special is the best value on the board, and the Crafty Special feeds a small army.

“Combine Em” is Crafty Crab’s mix-and-match lineup. You get two seafood picks in one bag, each with corn and potatoes, at a better price than two separate pounds. The Snow Crab & Headless Shrimp combo is the number one most-ordered item in the whole restaurant.

Feeding a group? The seafood platters are stacked metal trays with a little bit of everything: snow crab, whole shrimp, crawfish, mussels, clams, corn and potatoes. The small platter comfortably feeds two hungry people, the large feeds four, and the party platter is built for a full table.

Not in a boil mood? The fried baskets are the underdog of the Crafty Crab menu. Everything is breaded to order and comes with a side of your choice: fries, onion rings, sweet potato fries, coleslaw, potatoes or corn on the cob. The fried shrimp basket is a sleeper hit, and the crabmeat fries are dangerous.

Wings come tossed in Cajun, lemon pepper, buffalo or sweet chili, and they’re a legit appetizer, not an afterthought. Six pieces run $9.09 and ten pieces cost $12.99. Honestly, the lemon pepper wings with a side of ranch are one of the best cheap eats on the Crafty Crab menu.

Yes, if you like them. Oysters and scallops arrive first steamed, then tossed in one of the signature seasonings. The clam chowder is a sleeper pick on cold days, and the raw oysters are a solid start to the meal while you wait for your boil bag.

Here’s the deal: every seafood boil already includes potatoes and corn on the cob. But the add-on sides are where regulars customize. Boiled eggs soaked in the seasoning are the move, and a side of sausage turns any bag into a full meal.

The salads are fresh and simple, but let’s be real: you’re here for the Key Lime Pie. It’s tangy, cold and exactly what you want after a spicy boil.

Sweet tea and strawberry lemonade are the unofficial drinks of the seafood boil. Nothing fancy here, just cold drinks to put out the fire.

Crafty Crab does not publish an official nutrition PDF, so the calorie figures in this article are reasonable estimates based on comparable seafood dishes. A few rules of thumb: a plain pound of shrimp or crawfish lands around 600-700 calories, snow crab runs about 950 per pound once the butter seasoning hits, and the fried baskets climb past 1,000. Garlic butter seasoning adds roughly 200-300 calories per bag versus Cajun or lemon pepper. Ask for the sauce on the side if you’re watching it, and steamed options are always the lighter play.

• Go for the specials, not à la carte. The daily specials bundle premium seafood with sausage, eggs, corn and potatoes for meaningfully less than the sum of their parts.
• Order online for pickup. Crafty Crab is on DoorDash, Uber Eats and Chowbus, but delivery markups and fees add up fast. Pickup keeps the menu prices honest.
• Split a platter. The small seafood platter at $64.99 feeds two people for about $32 each, which beats two separate boil bags.
• Watch for holiday specials. Locations run limited specials (like the Valentine Special) around holidays. Follow your local store’s social pages.
• Crawfish season is bargain season. Crawfish drops to some of the lowest per-pound prices on the menu when it’s in peak season, ask what’s running when you visit.

Most Crafty Crab locations open at noon daily. Hours vary by location, so call ahead or check your local store’s listing before driving over.

Crafty Crab is a Southern-style seafood boil chain that started in Florida and has grown into a franchised brand with 40+ locations across the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, Texas and the Midwest. The concept is simple and hands-on: fresh seafood boiled in secret spices, tossed in signature seasonings like Cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper and “The Boom,” then served in a bag with corn and potatoes. It’s casual, it’s messy, and it’s built for groups who like to eat with their hands.
