Krab Kettle
Welcome to Krab Kettle, a hidden gem nestled along the beautiful Oregon Coast at 280 Oregon Coast Hwy in Florence. This quaint seafood market offers a delightful selection of fresh and frozen seafood, perfect for those on the go or looking to enjoy a taste of the ocean in the comfort of their homes.
Krab Kettle is not your typical restaurant; rather, it’s a seafood lover's paradise. The establishment has garnered rave reviews from customers who simply cannot get enough of their clam chowder. One satisfied customer described it as "super good," emphasizing its delectable taste that made their road trip journey even more enjoyable. With five-star ratings for their chowder, it’s clear that this dish has become a signature item and a must-try for visitors.
Aside from the chowder, patrons have praised the market for its scrumptious, ready-to-go options. Shucked oysters are particularly popular, offered at competitive prices that beat local oyster farms. There's a certain thrill in knowing that you can enjoy them fresh, with servings that cater to gatherings, making it an ideal choice for special occasions—just like Darcy Phillips, who pre-ordered for New Year’s Eve!
Another highlight is Krab Kettle's fresh crabs, cleaned to perfection for your convenience. Tina Fisher notes that she frequently recommends Krab Kettle because of their commitment to quality and freshness. It's not just the seafood that stands out; it’s the warmth and dedication of the staff that enhance the entire experience, as noted by William Vlach, who felt it was worth the drive to stock up on their offerings.
The only minor drawback? Some patrons wish for outdoor seating or garbage bins nearby, a feature that would make enjoying their delicious meals on-site even more appealing. Despite this small critique, Krab Kettle remains a beloved spot for seafood enthusiasts. With a variety of flavorful options and an inviting atmosphere, this delightful market is a must-visit on your next culinary adventure along the Oregon Coast.
So, next time you find yourself in Florence, make sure to stop by Krab Kettle and experience the ocean's freshest offerings. You won't regret it!
