Overview
Steps from the Hudson River in Red Hook, Brooklyn Crab invites to a unique and tri-level seafood haven, with a distinctly laid-back vibe. Featuring an interior Main Bar, the allure here is the sprawling selection of outdoor spaces, including a Beer Garden with mini golf, the Below Deck Bar, the second floor waterfront Patio, and most elevated, the breezy and vibrant Roofdeck. Built on inspiration from fishing, family, and seafood, no matter where you choose to sit, you can expect a colorful, fun, wharf-themed and social setting. With so much space, Brooklyn Crab is great for families and groups of all sizes, looking to sip and dine with a side of sunshine and views.
Views
From the outdoor decks you get beautiful 360° views of Lower Manhattan, the Harbor and the river. Sunset over the water are particularly magical.
Food & Drinks
The menu boasts seafood from the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Coasts. Of course you should try one of the crab dishes, but there's also fresh oysters, lobster rolls, and a variety of non-seafood items. Drink-wise, seasonal specialty cocktails and frozen drinks are paired with a range of craft beers.
What we think about Brooklyn Crab
