The Original Crabby Bill's is an iconic seafood restaurant that's been nestled in the old Florida beach town of Indian Rocks Beach for over 40 years, steps from the sand! Open for lunch and dinner daily. Fresh local seafood, fresh cut steaks, and of course CRAB are mainstays of our extensive menu. Everything from shrimp, lobster, clams, mussels, oysters, octopus, soft shell crab, frog legs, real Florida gator tail, and of course fresh caught Gulf grouper; we have something for everyone. Inside and outside dining available, full liquor bars, live music nightly, and much more. Hospitality is our blood and we are excited to have you and your family at our table soon.

Your reservation at The Original Crabby Bill's is for our inside dining room only. Due to unforeseen weather conditions and business volume we are unable to make reservations for our exterior and outdoor dining areas.

    Don't miss Snow Crab season; kitchen prepares seafood to absolute perfection. Staff is polite and attentive, and the space is welcoming and comfortable. Really enjoyed our evening there.

    The food was really good and well made. Our server seemed high and difficult to understand at times. Drink specials were definitely under poured which is lame. The 10% mark up charge is completely BS and an example of more ownership and corporate greed not wanting to share their earnings with the middle class earners by blaming market costs and higher wages. For shame! Honestly, too much money and not enough satisfaction.

    The server seemed a little more scattered every-time he returned to the table. A tad on the slow side. The original seafood platter was disappointing. All fried foods even with ordering the premium choice. Pasta with Alfredo with bland. Crab legs were delicious.

    Chicago Oysters were great, fried shrimp not completely warm when it came out, fries a little brown and soggy. Didn’t love the 10% charge at the end of the check cited something like a “menu stabilization fee” that we weren’t expecting.

    We always enjoy the original Crabby Bill’s when we are in town. It’s always a nice atmosphere. Our server, Karen, was great!! My wife had the Red King Crab Legs and I had fried oysters. This is the only place I will eat fried oysters. The crab legs were outstanding.
