Although it may serve as an after work spot and sports bar by day, as the night progresses and the DJs take control of the scene, a wild dance party is sure to ensue. An eclectic crowd dances to hip-hop, techno, house and electronica. A smaller club with black walls, black leather couches and a marble-top bar, Shade has a minimal yet high-energy feel to it. Patrons may enjoy draft beer and cocktails like martinis. Since Shade attracts some of the top DJs in the area, cover charges may apply on special nights.
