About SIDEBARGR

Subterranean, intimate bar serving a selection of seasonal craft cocktails, wine, and beer.

Located at 80 Ottawa Ave NW #1, Grand Rapids, MI 49503, SIDEBARGR operates as a bar serving Grand Rapids in Michigan. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

Because this group is broad, judging a listing on freshness, turnover and how consistent recent reviews are tends to work better than judging by decor or price range alone. Most kitchens in Grand Rapids will adjust a dish for common dietary needs like gluten-free or vegetarian if you ask when ordering. Hours vary widely: diners and fast-food chains often stay open late or around the clock, while bakeries and cafes tend to open early and close mid-afternoon. Catering and food delivery businesses in Michigan usually require advance notice, from a day for a small order up to a week or more for a large event, so it is worth contacting them early.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. The most common schedule is 6–11 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. No phone number is listed for this business, so the Google Maps link on this page is the best route for directions and any contact details Google has on file. Its website is sidebar-gr.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 451 reviews, which is a strong result for a bar in Grand Rapids and suggests consistent service.

Grand Rapids is in Michigan, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Grand Rapids follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Tiny bar, about as close as you can get to a speakeasy. No signs on the outside(not a complaint). Smells really good. Fernet shot near ridiculous tbh at $13, that's like a third of a bottle. 1 cocktail, the shot, taxes, and tip was $35. Bar service was great, held my spot for 20 or 25min while I ran to my far parked car to grab a charger. Cool menu, great recommendations for other local places.

Stumbled upon this little speakeasy inside of a pizza place downtown. We almost walked past it but someone directed us towards it. When you step inside it’s dark, quaint and has a sexy vibe to it. Very limited seating with a small bar and back room that’s beautifully decorated. We both got β€œmy girl” and that drink was delightful and refreshing. Noise level was moderate but we could still talk. Had a nice time with my bff but I could see it being a great first date spot!

Both times I've been here my wife and I have really enjoyed our cocktails and overall experience. Great mixologists/bartenders in a non pretentious environment. Bartenders are creative and make great cocktails for bartenders choice. Ive had some of my all time favorite spicy cocktails from here as they have a habanero tincture as well as some other crazy pepper tincture I had the pleasure of trying this time around. If I'm in Grand Rapids I'll definitely be coming back here. Great drinks and great vibes, highly recommend. Thanks for humoring me in my spicy cocktail craving!

Stopped by for a quick drink and was not disappointed. Their menu was diverse and as a bourbon lover, was very satisfied with their one up. It was a great balance of base and flavor that added a unique cocktail to my list. The service was great, the location is small and because they have no reservations you may have to wait a bit to get a seat. I hope they add reservations to bypass this little bump, but overall a great spot to go for a date night. It is a bit loud as the space is small so just take that into consideration if you are looking for a more intimate, cozy setting you may have to go elsewhere. If you are looking for an adventurous, warm spot for drinks this is your place!

Not sure why this didn't pop up on our radar until now! Went in before going to a show at GLC Monroe and had a delightful experience. Quaint atmosphere tucked across the hall from Big O's Pizza, which we have walked by soooo many times- but never stopped in- now that we know this place exists- game changer. The bartender was very knowledgeable- few drinks on the menu, and few off the menu. Loved how the drinks on the menu were curated to pair different flavors and techniques to give the mouth best experience. Highly recommend!
