Crown & Tide Seafood Co.

Crown & Tide Seafood Co. is the crab house that opened in 2026 on Thrift Road in Wesley Heights, in the same complex as Restaurant Constance. It specializes in blue crabs and snow crab legs, steamed or chargrilled, served with buttered potatoes and corn. You order at the counter or by phone for takeout. It brought casual crab to a neighborhood that had none of it before. Sides stay simple and the whole operation is built for takeout as much as for eating in. Calling ahead to ask what came in that day is the best way to order.
