Joe’s Crab Shack offers a variety of favorites from all parts of the sea and shore. From its extensive menu, guests can choose from buckets of seasonal seafood, fried shrimp platters and fish dishes, as well as options from the “mainland” that include steak, sandwiches, and chicken. Guests can indulge in over-sized and creative cocktails, such as the Shark Bite which is playfully garnished with a shark toy. Since its inception, Joe’s popularity has stemmed not only from its menu, but also its retail store. With various pieces of merchandise for purchase, including the ever-popular tie-dye T-shirt with the phrase “Peace, Love and Crabs,” Joe’s has become synonymous with the word “fun.”

Went there for happy hour. Ordered Bloody Mary and Margarita. The mixes for the drinks were made in advance and tasted bland. Was not good more tomato juice with no flavor. We ordered a variety of appetizers; steamed shrimp, fire crab bslls, artichoke dip, cajun chicken fingers, garlic cheese bread and New England clam chowder. Everything was okay but, the chowder was terrible. Service was very good but, there was only six patrons in the entire restaurant. Located in the Hadley Shopping Center. So there is plenty of parking with lighting. Happy hour were very reasonable.

My first time there friendly staff . The food was very good portions were large not over cooked . The bar drinks were not mixed correctly ordered 2 drinks the same that came totally different. The server was very good. Look forward to trying out another location closer to home .

Finally had a date night with my fiancé, been so busy wedding planning. Lol. We both have never been to Joe’s Crab Shack and we both love seafood. Everything was so delicious. We started with these fun drinks where you get to keep the cup. Then we had the fried calamari, it had a nice little kick and fried perfectly. My fiancé got the east coast platter and I got the shrimp and seafood ensemble. The portions are great and everything was just so good. We even signed up for their rewards program, that offer great options to many other restaurants. Definitely going to come back again and again.

I was coming from The Jersey Shore and had a craving for Scallops. Couldn’t find anything local, so I decided to stop in Piscataway, N.J.
Thought about different places and decided on Joe’s Crab Shack. I had been here years ago and wasn’t too excited about it. I figured it was worth another try. Oh My Goodness!! I was glad I did!!!
The place was steadily busy, no mask are required at this time and there wasn’t a wait.
Our SERVER PROFESSIONAL was a nice young woman who also happened to be The Bartender. My first question was if they had Scallops. She said “No”. I was disappointed, however my focus turned to other items. They have a vast menu, so it was easy to find an alternative. However, let me back up a bit.
First, the drinks!! They have a “GREAT” selection of beer and mixed drinks. I ordered a beer and then saw a drink named “Shark Bite”. It looked and the combination of liquors sounded interesting. Since I was in a Shore Mood there was NO resisting.
When “THE SHARK” hit my table, I was excited like a kid on the playground!!! There was this cute little shark on the side of the glass filled w/ Grenadine. It was KOOL…. The best part, the little Shark could be taken home!!
Now…. for the meal. I ordered Calamari, Crab Balls and I forget the other thing in the picture (sorry about that). Everything came out quickly and was tasty!!
For my main dish, of course a Steampot. It was filled w/ multiple types of seafood and corn on the cob.
This was a “FANTASTIC” experience from the moment we walked in the door, until we left.
All of the staff were professional, friendly and courteous. KUDOS to Management!!

Everything was good from drinks, appetizers to the shareable steamed pots. Our server was pleasant and attentive. We enjoyed our visit.

Okay the food was okay the place was okay. I have had better seafood for better prices and a much larger quantity. I got charged for sides that I thought were part of the meal. On a good note though we got free orange juice at the end and our waitress was really nice. The ambiance was nice but again those prices for the amount of food and taste was disappointing. I had high expectations.

Delicious steam pot, wish the potatoes, corn and sausage was cut up but that’s ok. Drink options allowed you to have keepsake glasses/cups. Dessert cake was huge and of course also good.
