Crabby's Beachside Pavilion

🌅🌴 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Crabby’s Beachside Pavilion – Clearwater Beach, Florida An absolutely fantastic beachfront location – it doesn’t get much better than this for enjoying a beautiful sunset! The atmosphere is simply amazing! Imagine sitting right on the beach with your feet in the sand, enjoying a delicious meal while looking out over the ocean. What more could you ask for? The service was outstanding! I especially want to compliment my waitress. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and absolutely wonderful. That’s exactly what great hospitality should be like! I had shrimp with coconut rice, accompanied by a non-alcoholic Heineken. The food was absolutely delicious and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. But the real highlight was the breathtaking sunset, which I could enjoy right from my seat. The atmosphere was truly unforgettable, and I hope my photos capture at least a little of that magic. My conclusion: If you’re visiting Clearwater Beach, you absolutely shouldn’t miss this place! Sitting directly on the beach, enjoying delicious food, excellent service, and a spectacular sunset – it really doesn’t get much better than that! Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening! I would definitely love to come back! 🌴🍤🍹🌅

Our family went for a late lunch at Crabby's after spending a few hours at the beach. (It's early Oct and Clearwater beach wasn't too crowded anymore). We just walked over and it was a wonderful reprieve from the heat. For appetizers, we ordered the calamari and seared tuna. They were both well-executed, and the tuna in particular was a wonderful surprise, one we didn't expect from a very casual beachside resto. For our main dishes, we had the Boom Boom Lobster Tacos, Fresh Grouper Sandwich, and the Fresh Grouper & Shrimp Combo (and the skewered shrimp here was such a standout!...they were huge and juicy, a must-have!!). For dessert, we tried their key lime pie and only wish we ordered two more slices, lol! Our server, Adam, was attentive and truly took the time to explain some of the menu items to us. Thank you, Adam, for your excellent service!

My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary in Clearwater and decided to check out Crabby’s Beachside Pavilion—and we’re so glad we did! 🥰🌴 We enjoyed the drinks, the food, and the overall atmosphere. Everything was just great! We had a wonderful time and will definitely be going back. ❤️ A special thank you to Tom for the great service and for making sure we were well taken care of. You made our experience even better! 🍸 🦀

The ambiance is nice, and we were lucky to get awesome live music on the patio. The bartenders taking care of us were wonderful. The cold peel & eat shrimp were not that great. The oysters were also just okay. We both got the fresh catch which was red grouper. The French fries are super good here, and they’re not coated in wheat flour for those gluten free. The coleslaw wasn’t great, so I recommend ordering a different side. Overall, the food was just okay… I wouldn’t go back.

Great food and service! We went for both lunch and dinner during our trip and enjoyed both meals. The fish tacos were just okay but everything else was great! Best pina colada I’ve had in a while (and wayyyy better than Frenchys). The peel and eat shrimp, trigger fish nuggets, coconut fried shrimp, and fried hog fish were 10/10! Just as good if not better than Frenchys and never the long wait for a table!
