    Had a nice lunch here while strolling the promenade. Very hip and happening place and the prices are semi-reasonable for the area. Cheesy 80s music plays in the background whilst you dine and get optimal people watching and views of the ocean. I had the tempura shrimp and nachos w/guac. The tempura was really good, the "guac" just okay but the chips that it came with were awesome. I also had a frozen strawberry daiquiri, and while the presentation was very nice, the taste was very bland and blah; very little alcohol, I couldn't even taste the strawberry. It was like frozen ice with sugar. I usually don't like frozen drinks and this is why. Lesson learned again. Anyway definitely worth a visit, if only for drinks and a nice view.

    Total tourist garbage food. Frozen bag of potatoes with ball park canned cheese.... "frites au cheddar" French culinary skills are on point! (Sarcastic) Drinks are the 90% of their menu and that's what you should be here for......nothing else.

    Absolutely brilliant service, food and fantastic view. Beachfront location, great dj, chilled out place to drink and have tapas even on a Tuesday night!We went on a Tuesday evening and the service was quick and smiley, great local crowd and the odd tourist. Quite a few vegetarian options available and a good selection of both alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages. There is a dj on all days of the week and they play good background music, doesn't overpower the environment. The only downside is the terrace can get rather smokey so if you aren't used to that environment it may be a bit uncomfortable whilst outside having food etc.

    Great cheese and drinks

    I've been visiting this place for years and always enjoyed the live music, but the current staff…read more(two young girls and a curly-haired guy) is horrible. I was out alone that night and asked them to keep my drink behind the counter for a bit because I didn't want to leave it unattended for safety reasons while I stepped outside to smoke. When I came back, they couldn't find the drink, so I asked for another one at their expense, since it wasn't my fault they had lost it. Instead of handling the situation like proper human beings, they turned it into a huge problem and argued with me all together, even though I explained the situation multiple times in a reasonable way. At some point I just lost it and started raging, because this kind of service is disgusting. All three of them deserve to be fired immediately, and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone as long as these bartenders are still around. I really hope the owner of Shapko sees this review and takes proper action, because uniting against your customers instead of handling things adequately is the worst thing you can do.

    Cute jazz bar recommended by the locals! We were looking for chill activities near Old Nice and…read morethis was one. I recommend coming here around 10-10:30 before it gets crowded so you can at least get a seat or have some standing room because it gets packed quickly and then security starts only letting people in if there's room. The live music took a while to set up and they really only started playing around 11-ish. By then, it's super fun and everyone gets into it. In terms of drinks - for the love of god, DO NOT order a cocktail. The wine and beer is where it's at. If there is one thing to take away from this review, it is to order the wine or even a beer! There is little cell signal in the venue but somehow, you can get a few bars near the bar. It's open until 3 AM or so if you're looking to stay out late.
