Good Service, Comfortable Atmosphere
Amazing little low key spot, the root beer sliders are perfect by the way.

There are few places on Earth where a dive bar and fine dining coexist. Shorty’s is one of those places. It’s kinda like quilt made of denim and white tablecloth. You’ll understand when you go, as you should, and see the highly rated restaurant that sits atop Shorty’s, allowing the shared menu. Like a delicious hat on a drunk man’s head. The 3 times I was there the only thing that outshone the food and drink was the bartender. What a gem.
We really liked this Bar, very comfortable, nice bartenders, can get really good appetizers. Loved the retro 60's vibe, it is my Era.
Located below RoCA; entrance is in alley. Typical dive bar but shares menu with RoCA. Blackberry bramble cocktail is delicious. Also had Margherita flatbread which is also good. A little on expensive side but I would eat here again.
Great atmosphere and food.
Awesome food and Awesome bartender! We will be back for sure.
