Came here to grab a bite before the movies and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved my meal! From the outside, I was doubtful of a strip mall restaurant. Don't be fooled! I, for one, was not disappointed at all. I had the Monday special a Philly cheese steak for $10. It had a great taste, not overcooked, and solid portions. The fries were very good, especially if you like them very potato y and on the softer side. I paired it with a side of chipotle aioli for dipping. So good! Our server was very friendly and attentive. I will definitely return!

Decent local pub with late hours. Food is all prefabricated food service food. Not terrible, but nothing special.

This is one of my favorite places! I really wish they had a location in New Jersey, but whenever we're in the area, we always make a stop. The atmosphere is fantastic, the music is always great, the service is excellent, and the food is simply amazing! Cheers to that!

I dined and had drinks at Shellhammers once and took a seat at the bar. I was immediately struck by the incredibly attractive staff—it's like I stepped into an Abercrombie and Fitch ad.

Fantastic service. The food and drinks were delicious. We went on burger night and the burgers were so delicious I forgot to take a picture of them. We will definitely be back soon.

A very nice meal, the atmosphere is terrific, also full of Boomers. I had the meatloaf, and it was pretty good. Not as good as my mama's, but it was pretty good.

First time customers last Friday night. Athena was amazing! Not only was the food good, but the service was even better. We will defiantly be back- but only if we have excellent servers like Athena and Noel. Will be recommending to others.

My burger was excellent. The fries could have been a little more seasoned but our waiter brought more seasoning. I hadn't been here for over a decade. I'm glad I came back. Now my son felt his French dip was a bit bland, but my Shemp Burger was great.

Shellhammers has some of the tastiest food choices for a bar! I love it. The happy hour prices are great the food tastes good and not like bar food. The bartender, Josh is just 1 of the standout staff members who has always shown great customer care,remembered our names and our favorite drink/food choices even if we hadn 't been there in 6 months ???? One time while aclassmate and I decided to meet their and catch up. Towards the end of our meal, a gentleman put $20 on our table (I suppose tohelp with our bill) and all he said was have a nice day I asked Josh who he was and he said a very nice regular That act ofkindness has stuck with me and I will pay it forward ????????????
