Baltimore's Best Steamed Crabs
Don't take our word for it... Bo's has won numerous awards, year after year, for our Olde Fashioned Steamed Crabs. And we serve them all year long!
What makes them so unique? Every step of our process is unaltered from the way it was done over 45 years ago, from the hand blended seasonings, to our insistence on steaming small individual batches. Sure, it’s labor intensive, but we feel our customers are worth it.
Sizes and prices change daily. Please ask your server about today’s crab availability.
