Shakes use to be a great bar. i lived in kalamazoo for 6 years, there every weeekend and never thought i would be here for a one star. This place is no longer a good bar to come hangout mingle and enjoy the large open top tables and gather with friends and strangers. The atmosphere is cold and restrictive. Whoever is deciding to ruin this bar by hiring unfit and disrespectful ill tempered managers and bouncers is going to be the death of this local legend. the night of the 16th was my last visit at this bar and everyone else in our group of ten agreed. We talked all night at hopcat, tin can, and up&under about how we will never be back to this bar. The main reason i feel should be stressed why we will never be back before i finish. THE MANAGER. The manager on duty was rude and dishonest. He was unable to have a rational conversation and manage a staff and his personal emotions in an effective manner. If the owner ever reads this you should know i felt like i was in an episode of bar rescue talking to this ill tempered uneducated 45 year child who is very unfit to run this bar.

Large sports bar in downtown Kzoo. I've been here multiple times, it's his favorite place now. Usually we come for the Steelers games but we were watching the Lions as he's jumped on the bandwagon. Other than popcorn I haven't had too much of their food. We did get the chicken nachos which were big, but not as impressed as he was hyped about them. It's mostly about 2hearteds and the occasional bloody. This past trip it was fairly dead by their standards, which I guess contributed to the lack of heat. Had fun watching the locals cheer.
