About Crab Pub

Crab Pub is a seafood restaurant located at 3766 Mission Ave UNIT 111 in Oceanside, California, specializing in seafood boils. This style of dining typically involves a variety of seafood, such as crab, shrimp, and crawfish, cooked with seasonings and often accompanied by items like sausage, potatoes, and corn, all served in a bag.

Based on recent customer reviews, Crab Pub offers a satisfying seafood boil experience. One customer enjoyed a crab bag with pork sausage, potatoes, and corn, opting for the Cajun seasoning. They noted that the medium spice level was hotter than expected, which, while enjoyable for someone who likes spice, slightly overshadowed the taste of the crab itself. Despite this, they acknowledged the good taste of the food and praised the attentive staff, recommending it as a good place to try.

Another reviewer, experiencing their first seafood boil in California at Crab Pub, highly recommended the restaurant. They found the crab to be good and easy to crack and pull. They chose the "Pub style" sauce, which had a bit of a kick even at the mild spice level, and were overall pleased with how everything came out. A minor point of feedback was the limited quantity of sausage (four small slices) in their boil, suggesting that clearer specification of portion sizes might be helpful. This customer described the experience as good but noted that the price is "pretty steep," making it perhaps an occasional treat for some.

Overall, Crab Pub appears to be a worthwhile spot in Oceanside for those craving a seafood boil. Customers have generally enjoyed the taste and quality of the seafood and appreciated the attentive service. Potential diners should be aware that the spice levels might be a bit hotter than indicated and that certain add-ins like sausage may come in smaller quantities. The pricing suggests it might be positioned as more of a special occasion or occasional dining option for some. You can contact Crab Pub at (760) 696-3577 or +1 760-696-3577. Their address is 3766 Mission Ave UNIT 111, Oceanside, CA 92058, USA.

Was a good crab bag with pork sausage, potatoes and corn. I got the Cajun seasoning and was supposed to be medium but it was hot. I like spicy but I wanted to taste the crab but my lips were burning. This did not take away from the good taste of the food. It was very light on business and the staff was on point with everything. Good place to try.

My first seafood boil in Cali. and I recommend this place 👌🏼. The Crab was good 👍🏼 easy crack and pull... had the Pub style sauce that boy got a Lil kick to it even tho the spice lvl was mild still good. Everything came out great. The only takeaway was the sausage was only 4 little slices even though it just says "4" maybe better clarification. But still good experience. The price is pretty steep, so it is only an every so often kind of place unless your wallet can afford lol. Enjoy 🤙🏽

Delicious. We got shrimp, scallops, corn, potatoes and sausage. We got the medium heat old bay seasoning. It was a spicy medium (which I loved) but if you are concerned they have a half medium.

My wife and I went here for our anniversary about a year ago. We really liked it. The food was fantastic! We like the house spice blend “the pub style” at a half medium level. I recommend the 1 lb. shrimp boil and a half lb. of potatoes. The wife recommends the snow crab boil. We really like the crab pub and look forward to going back.

Headed in for the first time last week Sunday because my friend and I wanted Seafood Boil with minimal work. The spot wasn’t busy, we were seated immediately. The server was perfectly attentive without hovering. The food was delicious and while we were thinking we’d have to order more food, a dozen oysters, hush puppies, combo 2, and a pound of head on shrimp had us stuffed to the gills.
