The best water and cleanest glasses I've ever seen in my life! What an establishment! A must go if in San Diego!

A fresh take on gourmet donuts. Vegan donuts are excellent, even if you do not have diet restrictions. I have been to this place for years and am glad to see seasonal items popping up now and then. Service is quick, and there is a friendly staff--the fantastic smell of donuts inside the store. The area does not have a lot of seating, but Paseo One has enough seating area you just have to find a spot. Great place for sweet

Yup!!!! Sidecar is still one of the best!!! Made it back down here today with my now fiancée and we tried a couple new drinks that I hadn't yet tried. After a traditional old fashioned we decided to order a penicillin which was a fantastic cocktail with great flavor and then we both had a paper plane. Albeit we just had our first experience here a couple months ago, Sidecar remains one of our favorite bars now.

I ordered water at the bar. Although it is cold and comes in a tall glass with plenty of ice, the water had an odd flavor to it. I do not recommend the water.

We stopped by for drinks with friends, I don't really like bars or crowds, but it was surprisingly light and quiet on the night we came by. The vibe was pretty chill, they had a nice selection of beer and cocktails to choose from. We will be back to try the food and other cocktails.

I was drawn here because this place was the only spot in town that had Melvin 2x4 IIPA, 9.9%. This beer is quite elusive to find on tap. They always have some rarer ones on draft. It was well worth the visit, and I noticed this is a really lively place as the night progresses. While the crowd was primarily younger Gen Y and Z, this Gen Xer had no problems feeling out of place! Then again, I'm at the age where I don't care anymore about petty stuff like this.. Not really a biker bar, but this is also a hangout for newer age dudes with motorcycles. All types of bikes. You don't need a Harley or Indian to park it outside and feel like you fit in. They seem to have some interesting and creative cocktails, which I would come back to try without a doubt. This was specifically a beer mission that was accomplished. The other cool thing is they have games! Not on the arcade level, but still quite a few to enjoy with your friends while drinking. I dig this place, and just wish it was a little closer to home so I could hit it more often.

I've started coming here for Colts game and have a great experience! Reasonable prices for drinks and enough room to sit and enjoy the game.

Love it that they have board games and a few arcade games (and the usual pool & darts) Reasonable pricing and simple restrooms - not a ton of parking but decent street parking around

I love going to Sidecar; the atmosphere always creates an amazing experience. The staff is always friendly and excellent. I love the patio area; grabbing a table and having a few drinks with friends is nice. I recommend Sidecar to anyone looking for a dive bar that isn't too dive bar.
What a fun place. This unique bar features pool tables, arcade games, dart boards, and clean seating for large parties. This is a great place to bring friends and visiting loved ones.

Sidecar is awesome. Pretty unique beer list compared to most places, great staff, and good vibe. One of my favorites

Typically, this bar is what you ask for. Dark. Quiet. Good drinks and some cool games. Today, we experienced harassment. The old man I posted below said sexually suggestive and inappropriate things. I told the bartender, and she simply responded "yeah, I'd suggest moving, he says that." We'll certainly steer people away from here unless, you'd like to encourage harassment.

The bees knees was great, and tabatha was amazing! She has so many regulars and we loved watching her make drinks! She's so friendly
