The amount of time, effort, and care that go into each menu item is impressive. For brunch, the…read morevariety is astounding for the size and the appearance of the place from the outside. At first the location seems less than promising, but inside the little touches of decor make for a charming, if not polished experience. It is still largely a bar that serves food, but the food is impressive in both quality and low price. The little details like in-house made desserts, house ranch dressing, and hand cut fries are a pleasant surprise. The organization behind staggered brunch seating lends itself well to good availability of items, freshness, and service. The menu includes frequently updated seasonal choices. This is also a LGBTQ+ bar. Brunch menus are regularly posted on Facebook, and the process for text message based reservations is convenient. Possibly one of the most surprisingly good restaurants in the greater Syracuse area.

"Cathy with C" was working the bar and told us to "belly up to the bar!" We did, and ordered a dozen wings, half bbq and half hot, then a bunch of onion rings and an order of jalapeño poppers. The food was amazing and the wing menu offered a bunch of different sauces and heat levels for whatever you're hankering for. Cathy kept us all feeling good and we had a blast! I really recommend Shifty's.

It is basement level and just a black unmarked door opens to the staircase leading down, that has clear signage. It definitely is like stepping back in time and there's no Wi-Fi service so guests are enjoying the live music or socializing! We ordered pretty quickly at the bar, we were not offered menus so I'm not sure what their signature cocktails are. Ordered a martini requested fruity, I believe it was raspberry not sure and a dark red for my friend. We sat in some cozy velvet purple chairs in the lounge area enjoying live Jazz music. My friend recalls this was a downstairs dining area for Burger King in the 80's-early 90's. The bar and Bath Room could be a bit tidier, but otherwise fun retro vibe. There is an historical piston machine on display that was used to run the building's original elevator utilizing steam! And now serves as decor and remanence of past decades.

IF I could score less than one star - I would. Allow me to change my mind on a couple of things on this review: Bartender got friendly as soon as I said this place is like home. I asked if they danced in the area - no. None. IF you are looking for a C&W bar with good C&W music - this is your place. When traveling I don't carry much cash, so paying cash for lunch was a NO. Wish this was posted in a way that I would have known before going here. But overall - the bar was a 4.5 at least.
