Join us for a Crustacean Celebration on the Patio at Quarterdeck! 🦀

Hey Food Lovers!

If you’re still in town this Labor Day weekend, join us on the patio at Quarterdeck in Arlington for a mid-Atlantic summer feast of classic steamed Maryland blue crabs! While not 250 years old, the Quarterdeck Restaurant, an Arlington staple, has been in the community since 1979. Known for their Maryland blue crab, it’s quite possibly the best place in town to kick back with friends and enjoy a late-summer seafood meal.

Get ready to crack, pick, and savor the sweet & savory flavors of these iconic crustaceans while enjoying the fresh air and vibrant atmosphere of one of Arlington’s favorite spots. Whether you’re a crab connoisseur or a curious newbie, this event promises a fun and messy adventure that’s fun for all!

Separate checks will always be requested in advance. All diners should be prepared to split tabs in the event the restaurant is unable to honor our request.

We ask that ALL folks honor their RSVP. If you are unable to attend after sending in a YES, please update your status so that others may join and help us support local businesses. In the event our group incurs a fee for no-shows / late cancellations, your ability to RSVP for future events will be restricted. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

To enhance the opportunity for great conversation, we will continue to limit the group size. Please feel free to sign-up to meet us along with up to 2 friends.

** WAITLIST: Meetup does not allow waitlists for paid events. If this event fills and you would like to be added to the waitlist, please send a note to the host through the Meetup app. **

In the future, we will vary the days of the week and the types of restaurants to keep events interesting.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE COMMITTED TO GO WHEN YOU RSVP FOR THIS EVENT. Feel free to make suggestions for future meet locations.

** The small non-refundable registration fee helps us share the cost associated with the Meet-Up platform ($360/yr) and reduces the likelihood of no-shows, allowing us to better plan our events and accommodate all participants. Meetup charges $0.51 and Paypal charges $0.53 on the $2 registration fee. Thanks in advance for your understanding!**

If you are unable to join us in September, we hope you'll stay interested and join us for a meal in the future. Looking forward to catching up with you at Quarterdeck!
