A very spontaneous trip to the Crab Shed to celebrate my parents wedding anniversary - well we have found a total gem. The food was amazing, the Crab Hut Sharing Platter was divine! We were squeezed in before a reservation but never made to feel rushed. We were well fed and well looked after - cannot rate it highly enough!
We had a fantastic lunch here today. There was a big group of us, but the food was spot on and so was the service. I had scallops and prawns and I was hard pushed to decide which I preferred as they were both scrumptious. Really cannot recommend this place more highly and can't wait to go back again!
Lovely to try fresh seafood at its best - friendly staff and tasty food too would definitely recommend
Wonderful food, fantastic service and an amazing location. If Carlsberg did seafood restaurants then this would be the one. 5 stars
This is salcombe's finest fish restaurant. We have eaten here on many occasions and never been disappointed. One small wish is that they took bookings after 1230 pm
If you love fish and seafood then this is the place to go. The food was excellent and we can't wait to go back and try something different from the menu.
We had an extra large crab to share for lunch yesterday , absolutely superb , great service so good we came back for lunch today before heading home, crab bisque, salt and pepper prawns and mussels all amazing , highly recommended , best to book if you can.
Brilliant place to eat seafood, not to be missed if you find yourself in Salcombe. On a par with the best fish restaurants on the continent. Best to book in school holidays as it gets very busy �
Friendly service, delicious wine, good value seafood platter to share, views of the estuary... perfect �
Delicious meal last night roasted fish of the day cooked to perfection definitely worth a visit 😊
Only place to eat or buy your fish, great place to treat the family or love one.
The best seafood I've ever tasted and great service too. Will definitely recommend.
A lovely meal tonight! Best we've had all week! Husband had his first lobster and I had the mussels! What a lovely treat!!! Thank you!
Amazing place - fresh seafood, chilled wine, views over the water and friendly staff - would definitely come back for more!
Fantastic food and a great atmosphere � highly recommended
Had lunch there today with my friend before driving back home to north Wales. What a beautiful meal we had. Food was very nice indeed (we had the dressed crab) with sides. Services was exceptional, very friendly and relaxing restaurant in an outstanding location. Loved it, we will be back when I come down at the end of May. Book in advance to avoid disappointment.
My beautiful lady took me here for a birthday treat. Taken to our table by Molly,she's great. The lovely Emma came to us and explained the menu. We both had the whole crab to crack and pick ourselves. Swapping chips for salad was no problem. Glad we did because the salad was yum. Crab wonderfully cooked and prepared. Took us over an hour to completely demolish and devour the tasty crustacean. Highly recommend this place. Thank you Crab shed for a most memorable experience xx
Food and ambiance fantastic, we got a selection of mains to share and they were really accommodating (we were a party of 6). The potted crab had excellent depth of flavour and was a surprise hit. Crabs were local and delicious and the mussels were plump and juicy. A must try if in the area, but make sure to snag a reservation!
The location was easy to find. 2 car parks within easy reach. The serving staff were very attentive and showed equal measures of interest to every customer.
The food was sooo delicious, we had a starter of garlic king prawns which was a fantastic choice (we had 6 prawns) though this was not a sharing dish, we did share. Then we went on the order the crab linguine and the catch of the day. The catch of the day was in a chowder and the taste of the fish impeccable.
As stated, the service was very good, we did not have to ask about where our food was... All in all, I would completely recommend this place for a special occasion or a nice lunch or dinner out. I'll definitely be back.
Amazing fresh fish, beautifully presented and full of flavour without being too rich so as to actually taste the fish. Quick delivery of food to the table. Service was brilliant. The two ladies who served us were welcoming and helpful. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Definitely not pretentious. Highly recommend. We had the fruits de mer and the whisky and chocolate tart. The mussels were the stand out shellfish of the dish. Thank you
Very popular restaurant and large car park close by. When we arrived for our table there was no recollection of our booking even though we had phoned earlier in the day, however staff were apologetic and we were given a table outside at the breakfast bar. This meant a nice view of the harbour however the weather meant our food got cold quickly. Staff were polite and friendly, great service and the dishes were tasty.
It was a lovely experience for us and we did enjoy the local freshly caught Crab, Pan Seared Scallops and Garlic Prawns.
The lady was really good, friendly and happy to help us. We definitely recommend this place to eat if you are in the area; the others don’t come close to the quality of this one.
Friendly reception. Although the restaurant was fully seated they offered me barlike outdoor seating with lovely views.
The whole crab with garlic butter was the most delicious crab ever tasted and served top quality home made fries.
A fabulous hidden gem. Great local seafood, we had mussels and crab soup to start then catch of the day (hake) and crab linguine which was very tasty!! Lovely staff 😊😋😋
We had a fabulous lunchtime meal. The food was local and delicious and served really well. The service was really help, friendly and efficient. We will definitely return when we are next in Devon.
A lovely spot for lunch and we shared the crab sandwich, which was brimming over with delicious crab meat and justified its hefty price tag! The picture sets the scene better than we could explain! Well worth a visit.
