Editorial Review for Shattuck Down Low – by Giancarlo Davis

In Short
Shattuck features one of the East Bay's largest dance floors--complete with elevated stage and light-bedecked bar. Throughout the weekend (starting Thursday night), casually dressed UC students and Berkeley locals come to blow off steam. Three bars offer an ample selection of good liquor (including well-crafted, single-barrel whiskies) and lend classiness to the joint. Karaoke, live funk and DJs spinning a repertoire of styles--hip-hop, dub reggae, drum and bass--give this space a sense of diversity.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

On select nights, you can order nachos and burritos from one of the bars.

Look Good

If you're there to see and be seen, it's best to make an appearance Thursday through Saturday, after 10pm.

When to Go

On Tuesday nights, young and old key-challenged individuals croon to a crowded room. Sing anything from Madonna to Manilow and make or break a fledgling singing career.

This is a great place. It is the only dance spot in the East Bay, with a large room, lots of seating and friendly staff. Each night is a different scene, from Karaoke to Salsa to Reggae to Hip Hop, you chose. Drinks are inexpensive, and the club goers are diverse and always seem to be having a good time. Highly recommend it.

Pros: music, seating, price
