"Barbara Walsh first opened her legendary Half Moon Bay fish shack in 1971, and though the location and name have changed with the tides and over the decades, Barbara’s Fishtrap now inhabits a 100-plus-year-old building with a view of the bay. Load up on Dungeness crab sandwiches, crab cocktail, crab Louie, and garlic cheese crab bread" - Becky Duffett, Eater Staff
