SideCar

The bartender treated me like an old friend from college. The drinks were personalized and the drink menu is special on it’s own. If you’re visiting Tucson you should check this place out!

If you've grown tired of loud, obnoxious, overpriced nightclubs, then this is definitely a place to check out. Whether it's to wind down with a refreshing beverage after a long day, hanging out with friends, or a nice date, the quiet and welcoming atmosphere is absolutely perfect for all of it. They have a full bar, so you can definitely get your run-of-the-mill favorites but I HIGHLY recommend that you try their specialty drinks from the featured menu. Their incredibly experienced and friendly bar tenders clearly have the skills and imagination it takes to come up with some fantastic, original drinks and it shows in their quality and consistency. I have tried a new drink each time I've come here and have yet to be disappointed. One of my favorites is the "Prohibition" which is a brandy drink and I was very surprised by how smooth it was. The minimalist decor further adds to the quiet and peaceful atmosphere and as someone who values a good conversation, this is definitely a great place to be. Keep in mind, that quality comes at a price, so it isn't exactly cheap but I'd argue that you'd probably end up spending just as much (if not more) at a club or gimmicky bar and it would most likely be handed to you in a plastic cup and taste like gasoline. To summarize; give Sidecar a try. Your eardrums will thank you for the break from the blasting music and your taste buds will thank you for the break from bottom shelf liquor.

I was not going to write a review if some sort of manager would've gotten back to me but I have now sent an email twice as well as a message, posted below, on Facebook and clearly they don't care. It is insane to refuse service to someone for having unopened bottles of wine, clearly from the wine club/winery directly across the street. I have let the winery, A Torano Wines, who are WONDERFUL know that sending people across the street to this place is not recommended. In addition, Falora, who is also wonderful, recommended us to go there and order off their menu with the full knowledge we had unopened bottles of wine from the wine club. "Good morning. I would like to have a manager contact me as I tried to come into your business last night and was not allowed to. I don’t know his name but the most notable thing about him was a Mohawk hair style. It was in the 6 pm hour and we were referred to you by Falora as they said we could order from there and enjoy some cocktails. It was me, my husband and friend. This man was cocky, rude and inappropriate and literally did not let us come in. His reason was we had our wine club bottles in a carrier, CLOSED of course from across the street. The winery was going to be closing at 8 so we had them with us to take home and that was his reason for not allowing us to come in. I have never experienced such ridiculousness. Please contact me ASAP."

Chilled, relaxed atmosphere. Low light. Great background music. Bartenders gave us immediate attention and know how to mix a drink. Great date spot or just to grab cocktails ( or beer/wine) pre or post dinner. Hipster-Classy…

Great cocktail bar with a romantic, speakeasy vibe. Phenomenal and personal service from all of the staff.

Very chill vibes throughout the Indoor outdoor space. Twinkling lights over a perfect date environment. Great for groups. Outdoor heaters for the cooler nights Cool vibes throughout. Variety of drink options available and large bar. Great and prompt service I had the prohibition drink.

Sidecar is the perfect spot for a well-crafted cocktail, and their mixology is nothing short of incredible. My go-to drink is The Rattler—a must-try! While they don’t serve food, you can order from Falora next door and have it delivered, which is a huge plus. On a nice-weathered night the patio is a great spot to hang.
