Certainly a hidden gem! Recommended by the bartender at a similar location, when we got there it was immediately apparent this was the place to be. Small(ish), not overly crowded, cozy, perfect lighting - all around great atmosphere - bartenders made us feel welcomed and were most engaging. Menu features some very interesting cocktails - all delicious - watching Drew and Noah craft each cocktail was a treat in itself! Added to the top of our 'go to' list when visiting GR!

Absolutely loved our experience at SidebarGR — hands down the best speakeasy in Grand Rapids! From the moment you step in, you’re transported to a cozy, classy hideaway that feels both exclusive and inviting.
What really stood out was the bartending — not just the skill, but the passion. After hearing the bartender’s take on the Old Fashioned, I let him make it his way — and it might be one of the best I've had. Balanced, bold, and beautifully smooth.
Two of my friends described what they were in the mood for, and the bartender crafted custom cocktails for each of them — both drinks were spot on and had them raving the rest of the night.
If you’re in Grand Rapids and want a cocktail experience that goes beyond the ordinary, SidebarGR is a must. Expert mixology, great atmosphere, and personalized service that makes you feel like a regular — even on your first visit.
