Great cocktail list and cool atmosphere. Limited food menu but they have several shareables.

Excellent service. Fantastic old fashioned, and the limoncello reminded me of my honeymoon in

Violet is the party at the bar. She’s the most lit sober person I’ve ever met.

Been at the Sidecar a lot (20+ times). Nice interior aesthetic with reel-to-reel music playing.

Cocktails are $15-$17+ when they should be $12-14 max. Zero originality when asking for a drink off menu (literally..."I don't know how to make that."). Consistently crap service. Blonde young bartender was extremely rude and on her phone when patrons were waiting to order. I am friends with service industry folks and they all agree the service at Sidecar is shockingly bad. For industry folks to say that...no bueno.

Save your money and go to Town Hall Tap next door. Same owners but the staff are nice and aren't dismissive. Unjustifiably bad service at Sidecar.

Alternatively hit the Creekside Supper Club bar two buildings down. Better food and the bartenders are actually nice people.

I love supporting local bars and restaurants. I love craft cocktails. I have been to Sidecar on a variety of occasions. Today was absolutely unacceptable.

We sat the bar and the bartender was extremely rude. It was as if we were doing her a diservice being paying customers.

We promptly left and had a totally 180 experience at Town Hall Tap next door. Thank you, Town Hall for being nice, friendly, and comforting. Our family appreciated your unassumed kindness and excellent service.

A great spot with a speakeasy feel. I had the Bees Knees and Positive Effect cocktails and they were delicious. I had the sliders for dinner and they were also really good!

I went to Sidecar for the first time for my birthday. What a little gem this place is! Great cocktails, lovely ambiance and super friendly staff that gave great drink suggestions. The vibe and tunes in the background were also awesome. Keeping this one at the top of my list!
