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.

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.

Wonderful music and vibe. Love this place. Plan to visit any time I'm in Nice. Not a tourist spot…read more Respect the place and all it is, if you visit.

But on Saturday night, this is the place to be. Well I should say most Saturday's. The place turns into a Jazz/improv concert joint, where musicians from all over the world come play with their instruments. I stood in the middle of people enjoying a great music and a drink. Most of the audience is made of musicians and singers, locals and not, cheering every so often for someone's solo performance. The atmosphere is contagious and you'll find yourself smiling. If you play an instrument, feel free to jump in. Drinks are cheap, music is good and the people are just happy to be there.

We found this by strolling through the old Nice, this place was packed and so busy with both locals…read moreand tourists we had to try. The beer selection is good, as for me I like the locals selection of wines sold en pichet. We ordered some cheese and charcuterie places and were quite content to hang out and people watch for a couple of hours. We went back a couple of times during our stay simply because it had a great vibe and it was the kind of place you can sit in, take in the decor and people and not go broke.

It came with fries and smashed peas that are very good- which is saying a lot for someone that doesn't like peas! I also ordered a blue Hawaiian and it was perfect. I added cold water that was refreshing on such Hot Day! The biggest delight was all of the charming staff! So sweet and attentive! Collectively, they spoke up to 6 languages. All are so kind and friendly! I was so happy my search brought me into Wayne's! They also have music playing, and live music each night. They have this amazing pulley system dumb waiter that was used to send down food from the kitchen that I found intriguing! This place is s gem! The prices were great! Excellent value for the amazing food and drinks, atmosphere, and friendly company the staff is going to provide! Thank you for an amazing experience!!

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.

Fantastic Location, But Be Careful at Payment…read more The location is fantastic, with one of the best terraces overlooking the Promenade and the sea. The tapas and drinks were enjoyable, and we had a great evening. Unfortunately, the payment experience left a very bad impression. The card terminal asked me to choose between "Good," "Very Good," and "Exceptional" while the server was standing right next to me. I genuinely believed I was rating the service, but I later realized those options were actually different tip amounts. I found this confusing and misleading. In France, where service is generally included, I wasn't expecting a tipping prompt presented this way. If tips are optional, the terminal should simply say "Would you like to leave a tip?" and clearly show the amounts or percentages. That would be much more transparent. I hope the restaurant considers changing this, because it spoiled what was otherwise a pleasant experience.
