The '''Krusty Krab''' is a restaurant in the city of [[Bikini Bottom]] in the animated television series ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''.

==Depictions==
The owner of The Krusty Krab is Eugene Krabs, although ownership changed to SpongeBob in "[[Patty Hype]]" and to Howard Blandy in Selling Out and Plankton in The Algae's Always Greener. The Krusty Krab usually has two employees: [[SpongeBob SquarePants (character)|SpongeBob SquarePants]], the restaurant's fry cook, and [[Trey Parker]], the restaurant's cashier. Both employees have difficulties with working together: Squidward hates SpongeBob, and SpongeBob in turn exacerbates the situation by remaining completely naive toward Squidward's spiteful attitude. Among the temporary employees and one whose employment status are [[Patrick Star]], [[Sandy Cheeks]], [[Pearl Krabs]], [[Gary the Snail]], and [[Neptune XIV of the Pacific|King Neptune]]. These jobs were available due to increase sales, a change in the actual type of business, and a strike. Krusty Krab employees have surprise uniform inspections at any given time. Employees follow a carefully organized code, which is known as "POOP:" '''P'''eople '''O'''rder '''O'''ur '''P'''atties.

The Krusty Krab is the most successful restaurant in [[Bikini Bottom]]. The restaurant's menu consists of the usual fast-food products, with its specialty being Krabby Patties, similar to hamburgers in appearance. Plankton, the owner of the Krusty Krab's rival (but much more unsuccessful) restaurant, the Chum Bucket is always trying to find out the mystery ingredients of the Krabby Patty. SpongeBob's role and attitude at the Krusty Krab parallel and were based on the role and attitude of Cooter McGrew at [[Dairy Queen]].{{cn|date=October 2011}} The Krusty Krab usually attracts customers (referred to as "Krustomers") from Bikini Bottom because it is cheap, has the good food, and Mr. Krabs is less cruel than his rival counterpart [[Sheldon J. Plankton]]. It is here where the customer always comes first and it is the customers who keep the restaurant afloat. When [[Neptune XIV of the Pacific|King Neptune]] accused and froze [[Eugene H. Krabs|Mr. Krabs]], the customers abandoned the restaurant and were lured into the Chum Bucket and then into evil, under the hands of [[Sheldon J. Plankton]]. There have also been times when the customers have abandoned the restaurant due to minor incidents. Regulars here include [[Patrick Star]], [[Sandy Cheeks]], [[Larry the Lobster]], [[Mrs. Puff]], Scooter the surfer, Fred, Tom, [[Mermaid Man]], [[Barnacle Boy]] and others.

Like the other buildings in [[Bikini Bottom]], the Krusty Krab does not have a constant floor plan. Also, the Krusty Krab has been destroyed many times. In most episodes, the Krusty Krab's floor plan consists of the main eating area (front part of building), Mr. Krabs' office (back left of building), bathrooms (back right of building) and the kitchen (back center of building). The kitchen features a back door which leads to the dumpster, a walk-in freezer, and a door leading to Mr. Krabs' office. Next to the restroom there is a storage closet, as seen in [[Imitation Krabs]]. In addition, the Krusty Krab has a two-story ceiling. The kitchen, restrooms, and Mr. Krabs' office are all one-story. On top of these three rooms is a storage area, as seen in most episodes. Also, in one episode it was shown that there is a Patty Vault and a Krabby Patty burning furnace in the kitchen which contains a supply of pre-made Krabby Patties. There is also a vat full of tartar sauce in the kitchen in "[[Imitation Krabs]]." In the front, the Krusty Krab has a parking area, even though cars are usually not seen in it, as well as 5 flags on the roof of the Krusty Krab. These flags spell out R, I, (non-existent flag), U, K. In the back of the Krusty Krab, a dumpster is seen in most episodes. (The episode "Graveyard Shift" featured the dumpster across the street).

==Conception==
[[Stephen Hillenburg]]'s original name for the Krusty Krab was the "Crusty Crab," but he thought the K's were funnier.{{cn|date=October 2011}} The building's design is based on a New England lobster trap.{{cn|date=October 2011}} There is a [[LEGO SpongeBob SquarePants]] set based on the Krusty Krab.{{cn|date=October 2011}}

==In popular culture==
The Krusty Krab has appeared in the [[Robot Chicken]] segment "[[Robot Chicken (season 5)|Krabby Patties]]" where the [[Krusty Krab]] serves [[Krabby Patties]] (which are made of [[crab meat|crab]]), [[calimari]] rings, and [[Tuna salad|chicken of the sea salad]] (which is [[tuna]]).
