A massive, bustling seafood restaurant with a classic nautical theme that's been a Somers Point destination for over half a century. The Crab Trap is the go-to for a traditional Jersey Shore seafood dinner. Steamed blue crabs in season, snow crab legs, king crab — they do it all in generous portions. The atmosphere is loud, fun, and family-friendly.
