FROM BOAT TO QUAY TO PLATE
Crab Shed Salcombe is a vibrant quayside seafood restaurant, stylish yet relaxed. Perched on the waterside overlooking Salcombe harbour on the beautiful South Devon coast, we serve the finest fish and shellfish - you won't find fresher!
Our speciality is 100% hand-picked local crab meat cooked and hand-picked by us here on the quay.
Take a look at our menu (and wine list) below.
In addition to lunch and evening service, we will be open for food in the afternoons between 3pm and 5pm over the Easter holidays (31 March - 16 April). No booking required during these afternoon times - first come first served (booking still recommended for lunch and dinner).
