Tackle Box

About Tackle Box

Tackle Box is Washington DC’s first and only lobster shack. Nowhere else can you get a taste of your last beach vacation while still in the city. Our menu frequently changes to reflect the freshest ingredients available. Whether you’re craving a bowl of clam chowder, a pound of peel and eat shrimp, or a lobster pot to cook at home, Tackle Box is the place! To us, sustainability doesn’t mean saying "no" – it means saying "yes" to new solutions and a different kind of environmentalism. Our menu will not always be exactly the same – that’s because we serve what our fishermen catch and what our local farmers can bring. The essential characteristic of sustainability is flexibility, so as we learn more we change our behavior.
