The peel & eat shrimp, grouper, mahi mahi and tilapia were incredible! The kids plates were ample and the fish was as good as adult meals. The broccoli and other sides were homemade and equally as delicious. The desserts were also outstanding. We did not go to Bait House because smoking was allowed everywhere. The coo,l smoke-free section of Crabby... More

My wife and I were visiting Clearwater Beach for the first time and unfortunately I had to spend time in the emergency room for an ear and tooth infection on Saturday evening. Fortunately though, we were able to get a nice late night meal at Crabby Bills. We arrived about 10:00 PM and were seated right away. My wife had... More

We loved this place so much, we went twice during our 4 night stay. Best crab legs I've ever had! And this southern girl loved that they had sweet tea! Laid back atmosphere added to the enjoyment!

It may have just been bad timing on our part but the place seemed to be filled with a rough crowd. While we were sitting on the patio, several guys came in and seated themselves taking up two or three tables (there were only four of them) and didn't order food. Server came out and said something to them but... More

Arriving in Clearwater Beach at lunchtime, we choose Crabby Bill's simply because a parking space opened up in front. (Then we checked TripAdvisor. :o) ) It's a fun, laid-back beach restaurant/bar in the marina area. We chose a seat in the outdoor covered patio/bar area where a very good singer/guitarist was playing. The service was good--excellent, friendly waiter, and the... More

We enjoyed Crabby Bill's, it was pretty busy for a week night but we didn't wait long. Go early and they have early bird specials. We got Mahi Mahi and it was cooked just right and it was delicious. The quac and chips were good, but we got tons of guac and not too many chips, so we ate it... More

Would have rated higher but they wouldn't let us sit by the window to enjoy the view. They were not willing to accommodate us with an additional chair or another table. Food was pretty good. Service was good.

This restaurant is in the middle of the wharf and you can look out the window and watch the boats etc. The food was reasonable and good.

Bland food and a disinterested wait staff made for a pretty unsatisfactory dinner. Thanks, but no thanks.
