2025. 6. 21 we've been here multiple times we always had a great experience. Today, I came with friends' families from Michigan. Sofi showed wonderful services and we all enjoyed fresh blue crabs. Thanks JM Clayton and Sofi. We will definitely come back again. Fresh and delicious crabs with a great price. The staff was really friendly and kind. The building doesn't look for sale but there is a small window that you can order steamed crabs (30 min). It was the best blue crabs I had. Highly recommend!! We will come back when we visit Cambridge.

Can't get a more local experience than this. Walk up to the window and get yourself some fresh local crabs! Call ahead to hear the specials and order so you don't have to stand around and wait while they steam them. They sell paper, wallets, and tshirts too!

Look no further if you’re looking to have crabs shipped to you. Just had an order shipped to Longmont Colorado and the crabs came in impeccable condition. Only a very small handful of cracked shells from an entire bushel. Price was great, shipping was shipping but again I was having them send crabs halfway across the country so I shouldn’t expect anything less. Chop tank crabs were BIG AND HEAVY! 10 of us sat down on a Sunday afternoon and picked the entire bushel saving the claws obviously for cream of crab soup. Living on the other side of the country makes it difficult but the world has shrunk and JM Clayton is doing it right. Amazing amazing people to work with, hats off to Debbie and her sister(forget her name) for amazing customer service. Note that Debbie and her sister sound alm
