Walk-ins welcome · Happy Hour until 6PM · 217 Duval St
217 Duval St, Key West
Crawfish. Crab. Shrimp. Lobster. Cajun spice or garlic butter. Served hot on the patio — get your hands dirty.
A proper seafood boil is not a restaurant experience — it's an event. At Stinkin Crawfish on Duval Street, that's exactly what you get: a pile of crawfish, shrimp, crab, or lobster landed on your table, your choice of Cajun spice or Old Fashioned Garlic Butter, and zero pretension.
What's in the Boil
Crawfish
Whole boiled crawfish — the Louisiana way. Get a pound, learn the technique, order more.
Shrimp
Pink Gulf shrimp, head-on or off, by the half or full pound.
Crab
Snow crab legs and green mussels — crack & dip in the sauce of your choice.
Lobster Roll
Maine lobster on a buttery bun with fries. The most ordered item on the menu.
Two sauces: House Cajun Special · Old Fashioned Garlic Butter
Key West has great seafood, but most of it comes dressed up and plated. Stinkin Crawfish keeps it honest — this is boil-in-a-bag, crack-it-yourself, sauce-on-your-fingers Cajun cooking. The kind you eat standing at a picnic table in Louisiana, except here you're on Duval Street with a frozen drink in your other hand.
The open-air patio seats a crowd, and during live music days (Tuesday through Friday, Dallas Doctor from 11:30 AM to 2:30 PM), the whole place turns into something between a crawfish festival and a beach bar. Walk-ins are welcome, but if you want a patio table for the show, book ahead.
Can't make it in? The seafood boil ships to your hotel via Uber Eats. It's not the same as eating it at the source, but it'll hold you over.
