In this paper, we consider the dynamics of a diffusive predator-prey system with stage structure and strong Allee effect. The upper-lower solution method and the comparison principle are used in proving the nonnegativity of the solutions. Then the stability and the attractivity basin of the boundary equilibria are obtained, by which we investigated the bistable phenomena. The existence and local stability of the positive constant steady-state are investigated, and the existence of Hopf bifurcation is studied by analyzing the distribution of eigenvalues. On the center manifold, we studied the criticality of the Hopf bifurcation by the normal form theory. Some numerical simulations are carried out for illustrating the theoretical results.
