Tales from Our Tables

Daniel Connolly

Followed these gems for quite some time and had the pleasure working with them on a few projects! Cocktails have always been delicious but Shayne and Nicole are the HUMANS that draw you in, regardless of how tasty and old fashioned is. But still get a drink even if they’re not there!In all seriousness though, I’m proud to call them friends and proud that they have accomplished so much and reached their goals. Much love to the ShayNic crew!

Kayla Gabelhouse

Best cocktail place in the Okanagan!!! Such a magical spot owned by the most incredible couple. Perfect for any occasion or celebration, or effortless date night! My go-to spot since the day the opened, highly highly recommend!

Rochelle M.

Ever time I visit Born to Shake I’m blown away by the incredible drinks and atmosphere. The bartenders are true masters of their craft, and every drink is expertly crafted. The ambiance is also top-notch - the dim lighting, comfortable seating, and stylish decor create the perfect vibe for a night out. Shayne and Nicole are literally the best and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great cocktail bar. Five stars all around!

Malory Hodge

I loved the Born to Shake shop! It is such a beautiful space with so many unique and fun products. The staff member who helped me was very friendly and knowledgeable which made my first experience in the space a great one. I can't wait to return to try the out the in store cocktail menu and take a mixology class in the future.

Alison Kent

Born to Shake made our Annual Summer Party a REAL party - our guests haven’t stopped talking about it since!! An amazing addition to any event - would definitely recommend, and have Shayne back for parties to come 🙂

Claude Perreault

Absolutely amazing drinks. I've purchased kits as gifts for customers and they love it. One customer said the Old Fashion kit was the best Old Fashion he's ever had.

Liam Owen

Shayne and Nicole are the COOLEST! Seriously had the best margarita we have ever had in our lives (coconut hibiscus with a splash of mezcal). Always fun vibes in there, seriously talented bartenders who are down to make a cocktail out of anything!! Great for a cheeky pre dinner cocktail, or go on Friday’s/Saturdays for a chic night out. You can never go wrong, and you can even buy their stuff to make it at home. Even my mom loves this place!!

Rishavraj Das

Absolutely enjoyed our time at Born to Shake. They make everything in house which is great and their pizzas are delicious too✨

Brina

We did a cocktail mixing class for my birthday, it was amazing! Highlight of the night! Shayne was such a fun host and we made the yummiest drinks! Would highly reccomend.
