Nestled in the heart of Millsboro, Delaware, Crab Barn is a seafood lover’s sanctuary where fresh flavors meet a welcoming coastal vibe. This esteemed seafood restaurant at 32600 Long Neck Rd beckons diners with its rich menu, boasting everything from succulent Maryland Blue Crabs served by the dozen to indulgent Alaskan Snow Crab Clusters that melt effortlessly on your palate. Whether you opt for the legendary Crab Cakes, crafted with a generous Old Bay seasoning kick that seasoned locals rave about, or dive into the buttery jumbo Sea Scallops—hailed as some of the best around—the menu is a treasure trove of authentic Delaware Bay delights.
The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between lively and cozy. Guests can choose their dining experience, whether at the bar enjoying a Meat Lovers Bloody Mary or Orange Crush, or seated in the main dining area where local artwork adorns the walls, adding a tasteful, community-driven charm. For those seeking a quieter moment, the right side of the restaurant offers a more intimate setting, away from the energizing buzz of the live music and bar area.
One standout feature of Crab Barn is its incredibly generous All You Can Eat crab offerings, as relished by diners like Justin Miller, who commended the perfect cooking and flawless seasoning. The tender, flavorful Crab Imperial and the hearty Chicken Chesapeake—tender chicken crowned with lump crab imperial—are also crowd favorites serving up bold, satisfying flavors. With sides like creamy Macaroni & Cheese, buttery Corn on the Cob, and crisp Steamed Broccoli, every bite complements the star seafood dishes harmoniously.
The restaurant's dedication to quality extends beyond seafood. If you fancy a hearty steak, options like the New York Strip or Roast Prime Rib come certified Angus and perfectly prepared, ensuring every meat lover leaves utterly satisfied. Families are well-catered to, too, with a kids' menu featuring comforting classics such as Macaroni & Cheese and Hot Dogs.
Customers consistently praise Crab Barn's attentive service and thoughtful touches—Joseph Alfonsi highlighted the generous crab portion sizes and appreciated the convenience of purchasing a six-pack at the bar with a meal, adding a sense of casual fun without fuss. Amy McHenry’s takeout experience reflects the restaurant’s steadfast commitment to flavors staying fresh and memorable, from crispy soft shell crab sandwiches to a hearty Maryland Crab soup.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply craving expertly prepared seafood that captures the essence of Delaware’s coast, Crab Barn delivers a vibrant, flavorful dining experience wrapped in friendliness and local charm. It’s more than just a meal here; it’s a celebration of tradition, taste, and genuine hospitality.
Had great crabs here as take out. Ordered a dozen for $50 and got 16 crabs as a pleasant surprise. They even gave us the paper for our table. Will definitely go back. Will also let you buy a six pack at the bar as long as you are getting food which was nice and saved us time.
We really enjoy Crab Barn. I prefer to sit on the right side of the restaurant. it's a bit echoey to begin with and the bar is on the left side so when there is live music it's too loud for me. This visit between the 3 of us we had cheese steak egg rolls, Cesar salad, steamed shrimp, corn on the cob, baked potato, green beans, lobster tail, french fries, and snow crab. The only thing I would not get again is the cheesesteak egg rolls. It’s not that they were bad, however the rolls themselves were very basic and lacking flavor. It came with a sauce that was very smokey and very spicy. There wasn’t any info regarding the sauce on the menu so I dipped into it thinking it was a burger sauce. Woooo boy was I surprised, haha!!! Everything else was great and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Snow crab clusters were a good size and came with 2 sides for a great price. We don’t live local but when we visit family we will definitely be back!!!
Wait staff was amazing! I got the all you can eat crabs and they were cooked perfectly! The star of the show tho was my wife's sea scallops, these were by far the best we've ever had. Do yourself a favor and check this place out!
We did take-out & they were busy with sit downs. If you like Old Bay seasoning on your food, the crabcakes have plenty. They are delicious. The Maryland Crab soup is hearty but a bit too much tomato for my taste buds. The soft shell crab sandwich is flavorful & crunchy. Give this place a try!
