Serving Elkridge from Southwestern Blvd
Elkridge claims the title of Howard County's oldest settlement, and its old Main Street along the Patapsco River still carries the character of a 19th-century mill town. From the Elkridge Landing neighborhood and the homes off Montgomery Road, the trip down US-1 North (Washington Boulevard) to our Southwestern Blvd market runs about eight to ten minutes. Elkridge families living near Rockburn Branch Park and the neighborhoods around Elkridge Elementary make the quick drive regularly — no need to head into Columbia for good crabs. The old Elkridge Furnace Inn site and the historic bridges over the Patapsco are landmarks locals know well, and both sit just minutes from our door. Commuters coming off the I-95 and I-895 interchanges near Elkridge also find us an easy stop on the way home. We're proud to source heavy blue crabs straight from Choptank River watermen and steam them to order with our custom house spice blend.
