This place is not muck to look at,but the food is good. Myself and two friends stopped for lunch at this place. While my friends had beef sandwiches, I opted for the Maryland style Crabcake. It was nicely prepaired with good chunks of lump crabmeat. Very good

I've been living in FL for 15 years now, but I am from MD. There are a lot of places that advertise "MD style crab cakes" but very few that can actually produce one. I am happy to say we have finally found a place that has EXCELLENT MD style crab cakes. I would go on to say that this... More

We stopped in this place as we had heard about the Maryland style crab cakes and soup. I grew up in MD and know that it is hard to find authentic Maryland style here in FL. This place was excellent. We ordered a mix of seafood and BBQ with sides. The Maryland style crab soup was definitely like what I... More

If one were to simply drive by Haszards At The Beach, there would be no outwardly signs just what a good restaurant this is. Although they market themselves primarily as a BBQ joint, they are anything but ordinary. They have surprisingly good crab cakes that even my son from Alaska said were very good. Also on the menu is a... More

Crab Cakes have real and lots of crab. Pulled Pork sandwich is really good. Cost is reasonable. The owners play 50's and 60's music on fri and sat nite. Not a big place so you may have a worthwhile wait

Total props to these folks! The pulled pork and beef are excellent; the crab cakes are made from mostly backfin and their sides are excellent. When you get tired of seafood when staying in St. Augie Beach this short drive of four miles is worth it. Service is excellent; everyone is friendly and the cutie-pie who compiled our order was...

This restaurant has a diner type appearance without the counter seats. You can tell it is family run and owned, one of the servers was the owner and I think the cook was an owner too. Their BBQ was really good and the home made soup was great. The kids meals were not home made- the mac-n-cheese was Stouffers. My... More

This place was outstanding, the food was great, the owners are super nice and the place was spotless. We go there before the dinner rush and the owners were friendly and you can tell they really enjoy running this place. They play live music on Friday enenings. We had a sampling of about everything they have and it was all... More
