JF - retired RRT Posted November 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Yes. There will be signs and a table to make reservations somewhere near the Horizon Court. The signs appear a day or 2 before the night it is offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Times Prince Posted November 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Crab Shack on Caribbean Princess? Unfortunately, yes. The Crab Shack usurps the nicer Café Caribe area, and limits buffet eating to the Horizon Court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin122 Posted November 6, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I am new to Princess. What is this Crab Shack? I DO love crab!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynbar Posted November 6, 2015 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) I read somewhere that you can call the DINE line as early as embarkation day to secure your reservations--- is that true? We'll be on a British Isles cruise --- is the Crab Shack still offered on the European cruises? Edited November 6, 2015 by cynbar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare grouchomarx Posted November 6, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I am new to Princess. What is this Crab Shack? I DO love crab!!!!! It's a specialty (up charge) dining option they offer once or twice during a cruise, it takes place in a special part of horizon court. They have seafood options like Alaskan king crab legs, shrimp boil, stuff like that. We did it on Regal and it was a mountain of food that was quite good. The clam chowder was outstanding. I recommend trying it. You can call the dine line day one and find out when it will be to book it ahead. They also had fondue night in the same fashion, not sure if that's been discontinued or not as I never hear anyone mention it here on cc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenguinLife Posted November 6, 2015 #7 Share Posted November 6, 2015 We did the Crab Shack last November on our 5 day aboard Emerald Princess out of Houston, it was offered 2 nights in a row, first night we made reservations and it was only moderately busy (50-60% seating capacity), service was extremely slow, nearly an hour to get our food. At best I rated the seafood as ok, lots of it, but seasoning was lacking, however we do live in south Louisiana and can get better seafood within walking distance of our house. The second night they were so slow they were begging people to walk in making announcements in the evening on the PA system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin122 Posted November 6, 2015 #8 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Thanks! What price range is it? I had gastric sleeve this summer, so I cannot eat much at all, so paying extra is something I do with great caution. But, if the price is reasonable and since it involves crab, I am open to it!

JeffandMelissa Posted November 7, 2015 #12 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Currently on the CB on her short 4-day cruise out of Bayport Houston. Crab shack was offered this evening (Friday, November 6), as mentioned before in the Cafe Caribe section of the Horizon Court. $20 per person. Reservations recommended. Hope this helps!

satxdiver Posted November 7, 2015 #14 Share Posted November 7, 2015 We did the crab shack on the Emerald earlier this year (7 day cruise) and it was OK. As per usual they served a lot of food. We were glad we tried it but don't think we will be doing it again in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
