UPDATE: Do Not Buy Crabs-Your attempted use of reverse psychology is not working. People reading this review are not falling for your lies. People do not want their crabs looking like it has fungus on it nor has your business increased from this truthful and honest review. Stop lying to the public. If what you said is indeed true tell your customers that their crabs are no good if they do not have black fungus on them which I'm sure most of them don't. I've been buying crabs from you for years and have not seen this before on my crabs. I challenge you and anyone looking at this review to find five pictures showing a dozen of crabs or more that did not come from you that look like the crabs that you sold to me. Since you did not want to replace the messed up crabs you sold to me I contacte

I've never had a bad meal and I have and will only buy my crabs 🦀 at Lady Frances. Great family owned business that helps give back to the community. 👍👍

★★★★★ 5.0 Sheena Hawkins · Sep 2025

Best crabs I had in years! Season well heavy meaty with lots of the yellow sauce inside! I don’t like the butter. The staff is nice. The shrimp is good as well . I live 45 minutes away I don’t care I will take the ride lol. Check them out you will not be disappointed

We ordered large and every crab was packed with meat and mustard. They were very tasty too! We also got corn and it was very sweet! 10/10 highly recommend

First time visiting this hidden gem & most certainly won't be my last. The crabs were hot, heavy & meaty. Very reasonably priced. The guy that took my order & the lady at the register were both super nice & welcoming. Only they need are oysters to complete my life.
