Mitchell Seafood

Mitchell Seafood is a working Sneads Ferry fish house that sells locally caught shrimp, crabs, oysters and clams. The business says none of its seafood is imported or farm raised, and it packs and freezes everything on site.

What stands out

Its small review base is consistently positive. Shoppers praise friendly, knowledgeable staff, quick service and fair prices on shrimp, which they can buy jumbo with the heads on or peeled and deveined. Big, salty Stump Sound oysters come up more than once.
