​The Grappling Crab Shack is a local family business providing carry out Blue Crabs as well as Gourmet Crab Cakes and other seasonal and specialty items.

The Grappling Crab is also a Mobile Food Vendor. We operate offsite at venues and events from breweries, distilleries, and wineries to fairs, festivals, and corporate outings. Let us come to you!

We are not only a distributor, but also have our commercial crabbing license and bring back live crabs from the Chesapeake Bay several times a week when in season (typically April through October).  We provide the freshest crabs you can get in Central PA; live and steamed! 

​ Our steamed crabs are seasoned with Maryland's best known local seafood seasoning, J.O.'s

We sell Blue Crabs by the dozen, half-bushel and bushel.  Medium, Large, Jumbo and Heavyweight sizes. We also offer specialty items such as Gourmet Crab Cakes, Chesapeake Bay Pasta Salad, and Cajun Jambalaya as carry out options.

Also seasonally available:
Spring and early Summer- Louisiana Crawfish
​Late Summer and early Fall - Fresh Gulf Shrimp

Orders are carry out only BUT we do have the beautiful Yellow Breeches Creek and Lower Allen Community Park right in our backyard.

We encourage customers to stick around,  eat by the Creek, and take in the scenery.
​
We are located on the Yellow Breeches just off of Route 114 in the village of Lisburn (Between Mechanicsburg and New Cumberland).
