When you don’t feel like driving down to the beach, or your favorite crab shack is closed, try out a hole-in-the-wall, The Crab Cake Company, that’s hiding out in a Middletown strip mall.

The Crab Cake Company is a tiny cafe that offers a few limited seats, and a big portion of their business is based around a take-out model. You can order your crab cakes ready to eat, or ready to make at home. Either way, you’ll end up with a delicious ball of lump crab meat, perfectly seasoned and without any filler.
