The Crab is a pub in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight, off the south coast of the UK. Located in the old village above the beach, as a traditional thatched building surrounded by other old buildings it has often been photographed and painted; the Shanklin and District History Society describe it as "possibly the most drawn, painted and photographed building on the Island" and CAMRA's notes on the pub comment that it "has adorned many a chocolate box". As of 2026 it is operated by Greene King and has been a grade II listed building since 1992. The Village Inn and Pencil Cottage on either side of it are also listed.
