The Crab Trap Somers Point, NJ Well, hon, you wouldn’t believe the scene at Surf Mall today. I was just minding my own business, trying to dodge the crowds, when who do I run into but cousin Carmy. You know Carmy. The one who treats Sunday dinner like it’s a Michelin inspection. We got to chatting about how much rent’s gone up since last season. I swear, landlords must be thinking they’re renting out beachfront castles, not shoebox apartments. But hey, that’s the price you pay for living in paradise, right? Anyway, after we got done with the usual “Can you believe it?” and “What’s next?” routine, the conversation naturally drifted to something a bit more appetizing. The Crab Trap in Somers Point. Now, if you haven’t been, you’re missing out on one of the shore’s finest treasures. I mean, the place is practically a rite of passage for anyone visiting South Jersey. It’s got that classic beach restaurant vibe, and I hear the seafood is fresher than a sea breeze in July. Folks have been raving about their shrimp. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. And don’t even get me started on the crab. It’s apparently so good, people are ready to rate it a hundred out of ten if they could. The wait can be a bit long, but that’s just part of the charm. You can always hang at the bar or head over to Jack's Shack for a little pre-dinner drink. Word on the street is the drinks are strong enough to make you forget all about that wait. The bread basket is another story. Fresh, piping hot bread and muffins that’ll have you questioning your life choices if you fill up before the main course. And the soups. Oh, the soups! There’s this 1-1-1 soup appetizer with Crab Bisque, Maryland Crab Soup, and Clam Chowder. It’s like a seafood symphony in your mouth. I’ve heard the crab cakes are to die for, too. Whether you like them deviled or not, they’re a must-try. And just when you think it couldn’t get any better, there’s the atmosphere. It’s got that perfect beachy feel, with a location that’s easy to get to. Plus, there’s a waterside bar nearby. So, if you’re planning a trip down the shore, make sure The Crab Trap is on your itinerary. Trust me. You’ll thank me later. ```json [ {"title": "Seafood Symphony", "text": "Try the 1-1-1 soup appetizer for a taste of all the classics."}, {"title": "Crabby Delight", "text": "Don’t miss the crab cakes, deviled or not."}, {"title": "Bread Basket Bonanza", "text": "Pace yourself with the bread and muffins."}, {"title": "Pre-Dinner Drinks", "text": "Head to Jack’s Shack for a strong drink while you wait."} ] ``` View business Crabby Jack's Somers Point, NJ Oh, hon, lemme tell you about today. I was just minding my own business at the Longport beach tags office when who do I run into but my cousin Danny. You know, the one who still thinks he's in a greaser gang from 1959 with that slicked-back hair of his. Anyway, Danny starts bending my ear about dinner parties going from civil to Birdcage chaos faster than you can say "pass the mashed potatoes." I told him, "Danny, it's all about the company you keep. You invite the right mix of personalities, and you’re golden. Otherwise, you’re asking for a circus." Speaking of circuses, Danny shifted the convo to Crabby Jack's over in Somers Point. Now, if you’ve been around these parts, yous know Crabby Jack's is the place to be for some waterfront magic. The views there? Honey, you’d think you were on a movie set. Just across the bridge from Ocean City, it’s got the kind of sunsets that make you wanna pen a love letter to Mother Nature. What I’ve heard from the grapevine is that the food and drinks are consistently ace. You might wait a little longer than you'd like, but hey, that's part of the charm. The staff? Absolute sweethearts, even when the place is packed tighter than a can of Jersey tomatoes. And the music! Folks rave about this one musician, says he turns the place into an instant vacation. Who knew Doug Jennings could be the soundtrack to such a perfect evening? Get this. Someone said the lemon drop martinis are so good they'll have you singing like you’re in a Sinatra tune. Sure, parking can be a bit of a wrestling match, but there’s an overflow lot. So, you just gotta be a little strategic. It's like a game of musical chairs, but the prize is a view that’ll knock your flip-flops off. So, if you’re looking to trade in the madness of dinner parties for a little slice of waterfront heaven, Crabby Jack's is your ticket. Just remember, show up early enough to snag a good spot. Trust me. You won’t regret it. And if Danny’s there?
