+++ Chesapeake Bay raw oysters (various sizes but not too small, some are big and fat, very fresh and taste very good, super deal for $1 buck-a-shuck, but too bad only available for one weekend)
++ Fish & chips (3 large fish fillets, taste good, fries in chip shape, very good)
++ Bowl of New England clam chowder (a little pricey, but a lot of clam pieces, very good)
+ Double flash fried soft shell crab, lettuce, tomato, onion on brioche with garlic lime aioli, served with chips and pickles on the side (very soft shell, taste good, chips with sweet Maui seasoning, good)
— Located inconspicuously on the side of Mr. Bill’s Seafood store. Not many seats and very plain appearance. Most items are a little overpriced.

If you’re looking for good seafood in Lancaster, look no further! I highly recommend the hot lobster roll. It has a buttery roll stuffed with lobster meat that comes with a side of chips. The prices are worth the servings. The staff is always so nice and checks on you often.

We have our vacation house here near Lancaster, try to come once a month. Since this morning,
wife keeps saying she wants to have sea food, we searched and found this place and saw review is good, so let’s give it a try. OMG! You can’t get any fresher food even if you try. Had Fish and Chips, Shrimp Jambalaye , Mediterranean red bass soup.
How can each and every dish be so fresh and just like home made. Pls don’t leave without giving it a try

While parking space is limited, there are plenty of spaces nearby. The Fat Crab Cafe features a cafeteria-style casual dining experience where you order from the cashier/registrar and they bring the food to your table (return the dishes to the front when finished). Currently, they offer a $1 oyster special on Saturdays from noon to 4:30 (excluding December 23rd). The food was better than I remember from three years ago. What attracts me the most, though, is the current oyster specials. And I would love to go back to try their dinner menu as well.

You smell the fresh seafood when you get out of your car and it just gets better from there. Excellent, very fresh seafood that will spoil you. The crab tomato bisque and fish are outstanding. Try the fish and chips with grouper instead of Cod. Amazing. Very friendly staff that will guide you to something you like. Can’t go wrong here.

It’s so hard to find good seafood in PA when you come from the bay area in MD but this place does NOT mess around. I’ve been here 3 times now and have tried something different each time and I can’t recommend this place enough if you like seafood also props for having ol bay in hand

The “buck a schuck” on Saturdays is wonderful. Service was excellent. The quality of oysters is great. Thank you Mr. Bill

Today was our first visit. I had the fish and chips. Both were good but the chips were uniquely great. One recommendation would be to have a two piece option for the fish for those who may not need as much. The place was also basically spotless.

My GF and I stopped in to Fat Crab Cafe for the first time today. She got the Salmon Salad and I got the Shrimp Po Boy w/ Cole Slaw. Both our meals were very good, and Service was GR8. We will be returning, to sample some other items on menu! Keep Up The Fantastic Job!!

The food was good and food was ready in a short time. Possidon’s plate was good but slightly small portions given the higher price.
