Shake Bar is a busy and fun club with great hip-hop music and cool vibes. It is a popular place for celebrations like birthdays, where guests can reserve VIP tables and receive bottle service with accommodating hosts. The atmosphere gets wild and packed, but there is lots of security so people feel safe. Customer service is often described as amazing, kind, and excellent, with staff treating guests well and sometimes allowing them to skip the line. While it can be very busy and the vibes aren't for everybody, it is generally considered a great time for those who enjoy dancing and a lively club scene. Prices are viewed as reasonable and good compared to other downtown spots.
It's a Cool spot to go, common locals, good music, but if they changed their cover charge to enter to $5, it will be more packed, and stay packed..

Shake PDX was packed and the energy was incredible. Real party vibes from the moment we walked in — great crowd, great music, and the kind of night where you don't want to leave. Easily one of the best nightlife spots in Portland. Will be back!
