Keith- Prince Frederick, MD

Keith... is the crab whisperer.

Keith receives and inspects all the crabs.

When Keith is not out running his own business as a landscaper, he is at 45th doing the (SSS)- sorting, seasoning, and steaming the crabs.

Keith is married to the owner and is the dad of their amazing son Caden. Keith is from Southern Maryland, Prince Frederick. Keith's Mom and brothers still live in Southern, MD but visit often.

Lexi- Frederick, MD

Lexi is from Frederick Maryland and currently lives in North Myrtle Beach. She may or may not be the owner's favorite employee...Okay, she is!

When Lexi isn't at the crab house, she studies for her nursing degree. You can also find Lexi working night shifts at a local hospital!

Lexi is the one lucky employee that gets to claim all the Raven game shifts (might be a perk of being the owner's favorite.). She will be cheering alongside all our regular fans

Chesapeake Charm- MO

🐾 Chesapeake Charm AKA Chesa – Official Mascot of 45th Ave Crab House

Don’t let the compact frame fool you—this French Bulldog packs more sass than a steamed bushel in July. Chesapeake Charm, our tiny titan of tail-wagging charisma, was born for the spotlight and crab house fame.

🌟 Her résumé includes snack inspection, guest greeting (with attitude), and barking at things that definitely aren’t threats.
🍤 Known to strut around like she owns the place—because in her mind, she does.
💅 Wears her harness like a designer statement piece and takes her job as “Crab House Diva” very seriously.
🐚 Has been known to challenge actual crabs to stare-down contests. The crabs blink first.
🐾 When she's not overseeing crab operations or judging your choice of footwear, she’s napping dramatically in high-traffic areas—classic mascot move.

She's got the bark of a boss, the heart of a lioness, and enough personality to fill a crab pot. Stop by and say hi—just don’t expect her to share your hush puppies.
