The Krusty Krab

The Krusty Krab is a fast food restaurant located in Switzer City, founded and owned by Eugene H. Krabs. The Krusty Krab was located in Bikini Bottom in SpongeBob Squarepants and was located in Switzer City in Joey Greypaws. It is the most popular restaurant in Bikini Bottom and Switzer City. Mr. Krabs loves money, and is openly concerned only with making money and because of this, he pays his employees very cheaply but SpongeBob doesn't care, and sells his food for expensive prices.

The reason the restaurant is so popular is because of the Krabby Patty, a burger with a very top secret recipe, which has almost always been the signature Krusty Krab dish. Other Krusty Krab grub includes typical fast food products such as French Fries, Sodas, Onion Rings, Bacon, and other products.

All of these items make up the Galley Grub, the food menu of the Krusty Krab. The Krusty Krab's employees include Joey Greypaws as the fry cook and Squidward Tentacles as the cashier.

Joey loves his job and is great at it, while Squidward hates his job and is terrible at it. The two employees work great together (according to Joey) and terribly (according to Squidward); Squidward hates Joey, while Joey likes him and is very helpful to him which makes Squidward happy and kinda likes him. The Krusty Krab's main business competitor is the Chum Bucket, owned by Plankton, Mr. Krabs' worst enemy and former best friend.

While the Chum Bucket, the restaurant's only competitor usually fails, there have been some short times when the Chum Bucket was not failing. These infrequent short periods of time are the only times when the Krusty Krab has any competition. When Steven Hillenburg was first creating SpongeBob, his original name for the Krusty Krab was the "Crusty Crab," but he decided that the intentional misspelling the "C"'s for "K's"  was funnier. It makes its first appearance in "Help Wanted."
