Quiet little seafood joint outside of the major towns. You order in the tent area by the parking lot and can come around the building to dine inside when it’s cold.
Only a few other diners around 6-7pm on a Thursday.
Started with some coconut shrimp. Came out real hot be careful. Solid shrimp with orange marmalade dip.
Crab legs were well cooked. Green beans had great slow cooked flavor with the ham.
I liked the hushpuppies, not too dry.
Crab cake is great despite small size. Keep that in mind if ordering. The onion rings were the surprise standout. You bite into these and the onion doesn’t fall out or anything. Fantastic!

I drive past here all the time finally stopped in. Wow snow crab legs had a ton of meat. Decently priced. Order in tent area and pay first then go to the left to sit inside. Flounder fish was good too. Wish my salad came out before the food. But everything was tasty . Definitely recommend this gem.

It’s totally just a fun dive. Eat outside when the weather is pretty. I go here for fried chicken and hush puppies. This time I added a salad, Mac-n-cheese and green beans with ham. Nothing is absolutely mind-blowing, but it’s really good and hot!!

Fist time picking up blue crab from Lowrys and we will be back! Male Mediums were $35/dozen ** of course subject to change, for such an awesome price I ordered 2 dozen. The owner had them seasoned well and ready to go with drawn butter by the time I arrived. We did this order to go but did see tables out front and perhaps thru the gate in the back for dining in. If you love crabs as much as I do then you know they are hard to find in this area. Consider Lowrys! They were delicious & you’re supporting this small local business!!

Found this little gem completely by accident while out driving around. We had a dozen oysters and fried grouper sandwich. Both were delicious. Staff was very friendly. We will definitely come back when its warmer and we can enjoy eating outside.

This was my first visit to Lowry’s Crab Shack, but it definitely will not be my last.
The people were very friendly and patient, and the food was excellent.
When you walk in, you are greeted by signs proclaiming that they’ve been voted the best fried chicken in the county. I normally react to such claims with skepticism (Sure, but voted by who?), but in this case, I’m convinced that the claim is certainly reasonable. It was the best fried chicken that I think I have ever had (the onion rings are really good, too).
If you don’t try it for yourself, then you are missing out on a real treat.
Keep up the good work!

First time diner. Loved it! Great food, price and service. Major difference from Lovettsville Diner where we were treated with such disrespect on 10/25/24. Loved the Smith Island cake and even heard the story of how these delicious cakes got to Lowry’s. Fried chicken and sides were total home made spectacular meal!

If you’re looking for a variety of great seafood food, Lowry’s is the place! The food is scrumptious and the customer service is impeccable! Definitely 5-stars for food and customer service! I gave Lowry’s 4-stars overall because the venue is extremely small, tight, and outdated (needs an upgrade). Notwithstanding, I will be back to try their award-winning fried chicken (voted Loudoun County’s Best)!

We were guided by the good reviews and were shocked at the quality of the food. We ordered crab cake sandwiches and got fried crab. Thought we would make the best of it, but these were the worst fried crabs we’ve ever had. No meat at all, basically batter, tartar sauce, and a bun. Sides also bad. Left hungry. People were friendly.
