About

I Got Your Crabs Steam Bar is a locally owned restaurant operated by its local team. Blue crabs remain the specialty, alongside a broad Outer Banks seafood selection: oysters, shrimp, crab legs, soft crabs, and fish. Guests can dine in or take food to go.

The restaurant operates seven days a week, from 11:30 AM to 9:30 PM in season. It remains open year round, offering a steam bar during the warm months and an oyster bar when the weather turns colder. Cold beer and wine are available while the staff shucks oysters for guests.

Crabs can be ordered by the dozen, half bushel, or bushel. Oysters are offered by the dozen, peck, half bushel, or bushel.

In summer, the original Border Station location continues weekend service of live, hard crabs.
