We've been to Crabby Bill's several times in the past, mostly with visitors to St. Pete Beach. Bob and I have never been too impressed with the food or drinks, but it's a good place to go with a family and we thought it would accommodate all seven of us nicely.
Chris took us all out early Saturday evening after Mass at St. John Vianney. Although the service was somewhat lacking, we really enjoyed our dinner. Two of the kids had mac & cheese, and the other tried the whitefish. Melissa ordered an appetizer, Chris the crab legs, and Bob and I shared a grouper plate. Chris ordered peel & eat shrimp (delicious) which we all shared. Bob and I also had a cup of New England clam chowder, which was really good. The server brought a huge piece of chocolate cake to the table for dessert, as a kind of apology for the uneven service. It must have been good: the kids seemed to enjoy it.
After dinner we drove to Pass-a-Grille and spent a very short time on the beach. The last embers of sun were rapidly fading in the sky, and the north wind was too cold for us to stay long.
I think the visitors enjoyed their last night in Florida and we have revised our opinion of Crabby Bill's. The food was good and you can't beat the view of the beach.
