Best place to get live crabs and shrimp ; they will steam them for you. They also have the best prices too in Horry county area. I don't mind traveling 45 mins. Poston have a secret weapon that will make you come back for more.. They get 5 stars!!

I couldn't believe how busy this place was. Friendly staff, after enjoying our local caught shrimp by the Poston family I'm certainly going to be back. They don't charge nearly enough for the quality!! There were folks coming in from as far away as manning, sc!! The hours are very limited so get your order in early!! 5 stars

I have been getting blue crabs from Postons and their seasoning have been so good. The people and the prices have been great. I recommend them highly when it comes to great deals.

Best place in town for fresh local shrimp and crab. They also fry them right up there with seating to eat in.

Very friendly people. Food was excellent, first time trying shark nuggets. They were delicious. Also had blue crabs for the first time which were also very delicious. Very affordable and a great place to buy high quality seafood. Also accept EBT.
