Watermans Crab House

Outdoor crab deck on the harbour with steamed crabs by the dozen

Watermans is the kind of crab house Maryland is famous for and Rock Hall depends on. Long picnic tables under a tin roof on a deck right over the water, crab mallets, paper towels, brown paper down the middle of the table, and a Bud Light in your hand. You order steamed blue crabs by the dozen and crack them yourself.

The kitchen also does steamed shrimp, rockfish sandwiches, fried platters, and a respectable crab cake if cracking is too much work. Live music many summer weekends. It is one of the simple pleasures of the Eastern Shore.
