The Boiling Crab Cambridge
Located on Winthrop Street in Harvard Square, join us to roll up your sleeves, don a TBC bib, and get down with our bold flavors, fresh seafood, and the “best tail in town”!
Step 1: Your catch! Our raw oysters on the half-shell make for a great start. For your seafood boil, choose from delicious Dungeness crab, king crab legs, snow crab legs, shrimp, lobster, clams, mussels and crawfish.
Step 2: Your flavor! Select Rajun Cajun (our original seasoning), Garlic Sauce, Lemon Pepper – or get a mix of all three with our most popular flavor, The Whole Sha-Bang!®
Step 3: Your spice! How hot can do you like it? We have “plain and simple”, “just a kick”, “it’s getting hot in here” and XXX “I can’t feel my mouth hot!”
Like it Fried? All selections are made to order, hand-tossed in our homemade batter and fried to perfection. We have fried soft-shell crab, fried catfish, fried oysters, fried shrimp, hot wings, fried calamari and more.
Complete your seafood feast with potatoes, gumbo, corn on the cob, sausage, and more.
Don’t forget the fries! Select from Cajun fries, sweet potato fries, lemon pepper fries, and the fan-favorite CRABBER FRIES, topped with lump crab meat and a craveable sauce!
All of the above go great with a delicious beer, TBC Margarita, a Michelada, soft drink or iced tea. See you soon!
