Come to this bar for the bartender -- Rashad's drinks are truly inspired! He is an artist with a professional understanding of the interplay of spirits, herbs, and mixers... and none of the arrogance that often accompanies such expertise. Congratulations Shirley's for landing such a fabulous bartender! We'll be back!
I stopped in for breakfast before work while staying at Hotel Petersburg, and Kellie was my server. She was kind, efficient, and attentive—taking my order promptly, bringing my food quickly, and making sure I had plenty of coffee throughout my meal. I also have some unusual dietary restrictions, and she was incredibly accommodating. She made sure my order was prepared exactly as I had requested. She even brought me a to-go cup of coffee, almost as if she knew I'd need it...read full review
Im so happy I found this place.
The smash burger and sweet potato fries were a big hit. The sit down at the bar and those counter height chairs had me feeling like im on a cloud.
Liquor and beer choices were top notch as well. I will be back.

Shirley's Bar & Restaurant sits in the lobby of the Hotel Petersburg. The dim lighting and caramel color combinations give the place an old time parlor feel. Many guests find the atmosphere relaxed and the vibe nice. The menu offers a variety of dishes. The smash burger, salmon, shrimp, tuna, ribs and coconut cake are often described as delicious and outstanding. The kids menu includes chicken tenders, burger and fries. Sweet potato fries are a standout and highly recommended. The shrimp cocktail appetizer and fried green tomato are also praised. Service varies. Some diners report a sweet and personable waitress who makes the experience good for families. Others note slow service, especially when the restaurant is empty or when there are large groups. The server sometimes does not check on drinks or meals, and waitstaff can be short. Despite these issues many guests still recommend Shirley's for its food, friendly service and convenient location. The restaurant is a good choice for road trips, anniversaries or holiday dinners, but it may need more staff during busy times. Guests also enjoy the holiday specials and the Thanksgiving dinner, which many say was top notch. The bar offers a variety of drinks that complement the menu. Overall, Shirley's balances good food with a relaxed setting, though staff levels can affect the pace.
