A thriving, well-frequented Wetherspoon's outlet, now with an enlarged outdoor drinking area with bench tables/seats on the former car park to the rear. Two regular and four changing cask ales are served via up to eight hand pumps. The Gwynt Y Ddraig Black Dragon cider sold by gravity from the fridge is no longer considered to be a real cider. The building has a modern interior with American diner style seating, in contrast to traditional tables. Discounted food is available for those going to the local Playhouse theatre. Beer festivals are held throughout the year. The name is derived from the local dialect for Shaw (Shay) and Holiday (Wakes)..

Information for this venue is provided by the Rochdale Oldham & Bury Branch of CAMRA
