When to Stop By
938 Crawfish sits at 938 San Pablo Ave in Albany, CA 94706. The dining room opens Wednesday and Thursday from 4–9:30 PM, then shifts to Friday from 5–10:30 PM. Saturday service starts at 3 PM and runs to 9:30 PM, while Sunday runs from 3–8:30 PM.

A visit can be timed around a workday end or built into a weekend plan without guessing at the door. The address on San Pablo Ave places the restaurant on a straightforward street in Albany, so the arrival point is simple and direct.
The first decision is timing. A midweek stop fits an after-work meal, while Saturday and Sunday leave room for a slower start. The hours also shape the pace of the visit.

The location stays fixed and easy to read from the street, so the focus stays on the meal rather than the route in.
Style and Access

The room also supports a range of needs at the door and inside. There is a wheelchair-accessible car park, a wheelchair-accessible entrance, wheelchair-accessible seating, and a wheelchair-accessible toilet. A happy hour adds another reason to plan the visit around a drink or a lighter stop, and the restaurant holds a 4.2 rating across 226 reviews.
The accessible path begins before anyone reaches a table. A driver can use the accessible car park, then move through the accessible entrance into seating that works for the meal. The toilet access matters for a longer stop, especially when the table order runs from a quick round of drinks into a fuller seafood plate. Happy hour gives the visit a clear window for an early stop, while the rating reflects steady traffic over time.
