“ The food was tasty. Great sea views. Unfortunately, the service was slow, and I had to ask multiple times where my main course was. Toilets need a good clean. Great menu with lots of choices. They offer table service however you have to pay your bill at the bar. ”
“ The crab shack sits next door to its ‘bigger brother’ the oyster box, and offers a more family friendly relaxed dining experience. But do not be fooled in to thinking you should give this a miss because it does not boast such a high brow menu or wine list. The quality of the food is excellent and there is definitely something for everyone on offer. The crowning glory is the spider crab and if you have the patience you will not be disappointed. The crab was beautifully presented and incredibly yummy! If you don’t want to work that hard, the crab poutine is a genius creation. Who doesn’t like crab meat flaked over well seasoned french fries. Often non seafood lovers are let down by the other food choices at restaurants so dominated by fish, but not here. The steak was not a second class citizen, holding its own and really well cooked. Overall the quality of the food for the price was excellent- and with the mix and match small plates is definitely somewhere for a big group party or family gathering. The choice of puds was also fun, variations on the classic ice cream sundae gave it the authentic diner vibe, whilst also offering some hot classics including crepe suzette. A fun and relaxed atmosphere with a beachside location ensuring epic sea views from your table. Certainly worth a visit. ”
“ This restaurant offers a range of differently priced meals. There's a lot of choice too, with a number of veggie options. Everyone in our fussy group found something to enjoy. My dad really enjoyed the throwback pudding of Crepe Suzette! He'd not seen that on a menu since the 80s and said it was brilliant. The staff are welcoming and friendly. The place has an easy friendly vibe that means it's perfect for families. Never been before, but we'll definitely be back. ”
“ This restaurant is perfectly situated on the beachfront, offering stunning views of the ocean while you enjoy your meal. We had lunch overlooking the beach, and the scenery made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was beautifully presented, well-cooked, and seasoned to perfection. While the calamari portion could have been more generous, I admit I tend to compare it to what you’d find in the south of Spain. Staff were friendly and service attentive. Restaurants doesn’t accept cash or tips. Over all a great experience. ”
“ This is a great place to eat, the booths are lovely to sit in, cosy family birthday meal we had in here...we were treated very nicely by the friendly staff...couldn't fault the crab shack at all....defo a visit when in saint brelardes Bay,Jersey. The stacking share plates are a must! Delicious ”
“ Year later and it is still GREAT !! 3rd visit to Jersey and 3rd visit to the Crab Shack and we were not disappointed. The oyster’s are super fresh and arrive with option of Tabasco, fresh lemon or shallot vinegar (or “naked” ). The spider crab was well prepared and presented and full of taste. For something different I decided to try the flat iron steak and will definitely be going for that again. In a stunning location with choice of outdoor or indoor seating this great for either lunch or an evening dinner! ”
“ Service was lovely, so the 10% charge is justified. They were all very welcoming. Seafood was spectacular, I recommend sharing the crab of the day. Finished with beautiful views by the beach. ”
