Our goal is to provide you, your friends, and your family with a fun and relaxing dining experience. So, sit down, relax, and enjoy the best crab cakes, homemade soups, and best Angus steaks anywhere! We use as many locally sourced and fresh natural ingredients as possible. Crabby Pig is also known for our hand pulled BBQ pork sandwiches and our famous baby back ribs, both slowly smoked with hickory wood chips. They serve lunch and dinner and have outdoor seating available. The Crabby Pig is located in the Shops at Canal Place on the western side of the towpath.
We know that to preserve something, you need to experience it, so we are proud to provide support to the C&O National Historical Park as their official philanthropic partner.

There has been a lapse in appropriations, and a shutdown of the federal government is currently in effect. Much of the C&O Canal National Historical Park remains accessible to the public, however, the National Park Service is not able to operate as normal. Scheduled C&O Canal Trust events and Canal Quarters reservations will continue as scheduled.
