Millender & Son Seafood

Great little seafood market right on the edge of town. The crab & shrimp dips were incredible, and full of some of the freshest fish I’ve ever eaten. The man behind the counter was more than helpful offering up the best quick recipes to eat his wares. Easy on the wallet also. Perfect for picking up stuff to make quick munchables back at your beach rental. Highly recommended.

Freshness is essential, and that is what we get here, fresh and tasty.

Very lovely people, but most of the websites we checked stated that this was a restaurant. Wish it were! The fish was fresh and the deals were good. Be warned that the «shrimp deep» is really just cream cheese and shrimp bits, with a bit of scallion — and not really a dip but a spread. Or at least, it was the day we got it.
Otherwise, a pleasant place.

Family-​run, friendly, fresh.
Bought several different things from them while in the area recently, and we found everything to be more than up to par.
Bonus points — I stopped in once at almost closing time and needed to make a trip to the grocery store, and since I didn’t want the fish and shrimp to sit in the hot car while we did that, they were happy to stay open a few minutes late so that we could go straight home with our fresh seafood. I really appreciated that, and the results were excellent.

We were touring the area in our RV, and the locals we talked to recommended Millender’s to buy fresh seafood. They did not disappoint! One of the sons was just opening the place, and when he saw us, ran over to let us in. Had fresh shrimp just off the boat, packed in ice with the heads still on. It was around $ 10 for @ 2 pounds. He apologized for not having had time to size them, but we didn’t care. They were all fat, some larger, most medium. We simply boiled them, and they were absolutely fabulous with our remoulade sauce! Since they were so fresh, we were able to eat them over a couple of days. Recommend highly. (Sorry, don’t even know if they serve lunch/​dinner — we were just at the fresh seafood counter.)

This an excellent place to get literally fresh off the boat seafood in Carrabelle, Florida. I learned of this place from my father, as it is right down the street from their beach home. If you are not from the area it can be a little intimidating the first time around. Sometimes it can almost feel like the place is abandoned. Just walk on through into the main refrigeration room and before long you will be greeted by someone with a friendly southern drawwwl… The prices here are rock bottom but the seafood is spot on. Get yourself some jumbo shrimp and get to cookin!
