The popular Richmond-based Croaker’s Spot restaurant chain has a new addition — Sugar’s Crab Shack.

The drive-in, walk-up eatery quietly opened two weeks ago in the 2200 block of Chamberlayne Avenue and features lake trout, catfish and shrimp, as well as snow crab legs.

“We’ve been doing well since we opened,” said Neverett Eggleston Jr., one of the family members involved in the restaurant group that his son, Neverett “Sugarfoot” Eggleston III, founded.

“Sugar” is the nickname of Neverett Jr.’s wife and mother of “Sugarfoot.”

Best known in Richmond for its South Side restaurant at 1020 Hull St., Croaker’s Spot also operates a restaurant in Petersburg. The restaurant group is now working on opening additional spots in Fredericksburg and Norfolk.

There also are plans to return to the 500 block of North 2nd Street in Jackson Ward, where the restaurant first opened. The original location has been closed for several years.

Kelvin Hanson, a developer and partner in the restaurant business, indicated recently that he plans to include space for an additional restaurant on the first floor of the new apartments he is developing on the site of the former Eggleston Hotel at Second and Leigh streets.
