I'll be upfront and honest, Shadie Rene's is probably only a three star bar, but it's getting four from me. Â It's kind of the principle where yeah it's a sh*t hole, but it's my sh*t hole. Â I've been a regular at this place for years!
It's a bit dark and dungy, but drinks are dirt cheap and depending on which band is playing there on the night...it can be a blast. Â
You can log onto their website to check out their band schedule. Â I highly recommend the "New Wave Nation" nights where a fun 80's band takes you back to the days of Member's Only jackets and leg warmers.
One thing to note...Thursdays are "Female Revue" night where the place transforms into a gentleman's establishment. Â Don't go unless you want to see boobies. Â Be forewarned...sometimes you see boobies you wish you hadn't seen.
