"Shaw’s all-outdoor bar known for color-soaked ambiance and boozy slushies." - Tierney Plumb
"When a spot’s specialty is frozen drinks, then you’re in good hands. While daylight is still on our side, head to this Shaw favorite and sample one of dozen frozen drinks from its robust offerings." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"This outdoor bar and parking spot for a rotating group of food trucks opened in the gravel lot that used to house the Mr. P’s Ribs and Fish bus. The QR code-enabled menu features spiked slushees and craft beers alongside canned wine, seltzer, and cocktails like a strawberry-topped pina colada Miami Vice." - Tierney Plumb
"The slushy autumn special at the all-outdoor bar is a “Pumpkin Frozen” ($11) comprised of pumpkin spice and whiskey. If the orange gourd isn’t your speed, there’s also the “Bee’s Freeze” ($12) with Barr Hill gin (distilled with honey), lemon, and more honey — with the option to have it served inside of a honey bear." - Kalina Newman
"The all-outdoor standby in Shaw boasts a plethora of chilled drinks like a mango frosé with house-infused ancho habanero vodka or the “frozen that started it all”: an icy rendition of an Irish coffee." - Vinciane Ngomsi
