What's not to love about Shakewell? Amazing food, cocktails, ambiance, and above all, the incredible staff! Shakewell has become a staple for the Lakeshore community, and I am beyond sad to see them go. Honestly, the best churros in the bay, and I've had my fair share!

The food at Shakewell is excellent. The indoor seating was very crowded and noisy. Fortunately, the weather was mild so we could eat outside. Unfortunately, Shakewell intends to close at the end of August. I hope they change their minds.
