What People Are Saying About Shine

Citysearch

In Short – Freckled with dots of light cast by overhead disco balls, this SoMa destination is perhaps best known for housing a photo booth programmed to publish each evening's photographs online. Glittery gold panels accent the bar and the custom-made DJ booth, where nightly guests spin groove-inducing tracks. Patrons, who lounge on cushioned banquettes or move on the central dance floor, often opt to tend their own bar by renting mini-refrigerators stocked with beverages for the evening.

Best consistent dance music

by DeBritton

I met a friend here last Friday night not knowing what to expect and what a fantastic surprise.. the music was so danceable I couldn't stop. The other people dancing and coming in and out were friendly and you could virtually walk up to anyone and dance. A great time was had by all. Go dance and have a great time!!

  • Pros: Great vibe and atmosphere
  • Cons: none

best drinks,music,service

by mjhosley

I'm to old for these clubs, but it was a ball. Everyone was very friendly and I found those I talked with very interesting. The entire clientele were obviously there to relax and party. Management knew their stuff and the music and service were excellent! I will definitely make return visits.

unpretentious, relaxed atmosphere with the occassional bout of serious funky fresh beats!

by kelhuffman

A great spot to saddle up to the bar and get your favorite drink poured by friendly and accessible bartenders. The lounge area and dance area provide plenty of space and Shine's focus on unique local and out of town DJ talent is unsurpassed and comes without all the pretense you might find at other locations. Stop by, have a drink and make yourself immortal in the shine photo booth. (Clothing optional!)

  • Pros: inexpensive, low or no cover, lots of music, large space
  • Cons: bathrooms can be jammed during busy nights
