The Barking Crab is a seafood restaurant in Fort Point, Boston.[1] In 2008, they opened a location in Newport, Rhode Island.[2] It has since closed. In 2014, under executive chef Joshua Brown, they completed phase two of its reinvention.[3]

In November 2020, a man was arrested for breaking into the restaurant and stealing bottles of liquor.[4]

In April 2022, Steven Tyler, the frontman of Aerosmith, visited the Barking Crab.[5][6]
