We paid for 4lbs of crab legs and only received 2lbs when I questioned the staff they said well when you steam them they lose the weight. I was shocked and questioned how is it possible that there was physically 2lbs of water that steamed off in the cooking process? I imagine there would possibly be a difference but seriously I don’t buy that excuse, it actually seemed like it was made up as we questioned it! We have gone here every New Year’s Eve for the past several years and also get crabs here in the summer, but never again this was a rip off! After I advised the staff this they just pushed me out on my way saying sarcastically «Happy New Year»

Great steamed crabs. Packed with old bay! What a treat for someone who grew up in Maryland but now living in Philadelphia, there is no where that can offer a great Maryland crab except at Captains Catch.

The seafood market is good … a little over priced but still quality seafood… fish, shrimp, and scallops are always good… The oysters and clams are a little muddy so you really have to scrub them down and rinse them off … I did catch a dead one here and there…
they have soups for sale that I do not recommend. The clam chowder is very light on the clam for almost $ 7 it shouldnt be light on clams… the cream of crab is full of shell and is light on the crab… also should not be light on crab for almost $ 7 a pint

Just had crabs from Captain’s Catch. We purchased 2 dozen of the super jumbo. Very tasty and meaty. Also purchased potato salad. Homemade and good! The store is clean and all of the seafood looks fresh. The store doesn’t smell like fish and you can see the cleanliness. I will definitely be back. I purchased salmon and crab cakes too. I haven’t eaten them yet, but they look beautiful.

after many years as a loyal crab customer, the last time we purchased crabs this summer would also be our last time patronizing this establishment. we paid a premium price for large crabs by the bushel, only to discover we had been sold a bushel of the smallest crabs ever! and we know our crabs!!! when we contacted the store about our disappointment and their obvious mistake, the staff not only accused us of lying, but also refused to notify the owner of our unhappy customer experience. we were told by the staff that maybe we did receive the wrong size, but that there would be no compensation for the enormous price difference. There was absolutely no courtesy extended to us despite having been longtime customers. We have told all our friends and business associates to stay away!!! definitely not the crab place it once was…

Pricier than some of the other such places, but convenient for me. The quality of the seafood is very dependably good, which helps.
The young staff is very attentive — they ask you what you’d like almost as soon as you walk in. After experiencing the opposite at a seafood market on Rt. 1 near Lewes this summer, I appreciate this.
