Crab Feeds 2019: Lamorinda & East Bay

EAST BAY, CA – The 2019 crab-feed season is in full swing throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, and we bring you the best from neighboring cities throughout the East Bay.

These always popular, usually all-you-can-eat fundraisers vary -- some with dancing and DJs, for adults only or family friendly. Raffles, live and silent auctions often are on tap, with beneficiary causes running the gamut.

But all have one thing in common -- they sell out fast. So find one (or two or three) near you, get crackin' and book your seats.

And Happy Crab-Feed Season, from Patch!
