Editorial Review for Shellback Tavern – by Chantal Lamers
In Short
This casual neighborhood watering hole invites a wide age range of drinkers alike to raise their glasses to a good time. Sports fans find comfort in wooden booths and on worn-in bar stools--the perfect spot to cheer on the team. But if the action around the bar isn't enough, then step into the bathroom and look at the wall. The declarations of love drunkenly sprawled next to condemnations of old lovers are always good for some entertainment.

Know first up you are heading to a dive bar. Its a great place though and the type of place where everyone seems to know everyone but are open to new people walking in the door. Good beer selection, above average food and great location
Pros: Dive bar, fair amount of beers, above average food
Cons: Standing room only on popular nights

Shellback is a Manhattan Beach staple-- after a day at the beach it's a great, convenient location to grab a refreshing beer! It is definitely a dive bar, but they play great music and the vibe is very low key and fun. If you are drunk, or hungry enough indulge in the cheese fries...
