Old Bae: Where to Pick In-Season Blue Crabs Around D.C. - Eater DC
"Capitol Hill beer-and-burger bars the Ugly Mug and Valor Brewpub just morphed into one place to pick Maryland blue crabs at the end of each week. Along with crabs by the dozen (medium, large, and jumbo), a Maryland-style seafood boil for two ($43) features crab, shrimp, clams, mussels, corn, cole slaw, and potatoes. A new all-you-can-eat option every Thursday (market price/typically $60-$80) comes with slaw and fries from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Normal crab-picking hours resume at noon on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, running through the duration of blue crab season. Reserve a seat (indoor/outdoor service available) on Resy. New summer elixirs from the brewery crew include a “Beers” Knees and rum punch." - Tierney Plumb
