The Crab Shack

The Verdict

The Crab Shack crew are seafood fiends, and know exactly how to do it justice. Located down at Princes Wharf, The Crab Shack provides Aucklanders with a taste of the ocean via fish, prawns, mussels, lobster, and giant pots of crab—grab yourself a bib and prepare to get messy!

If seafood’s not your thing, they’ve also got hearty meat, chicken and veggie options, plus almost every beach-related cocktail under the sun (think Blue Lagoons and Piña Coladas).
