Sidetrack Eatery & Pub

Pretty good spot to chill out. Dollar tacos were yummy. The bartender gal was pretty cool and laid back. could have a better draft selection.

great jello shots

My husband and I have been popping in here on occasion for about a year — we love it. One particular bartender, I don’t know her name but she’s a younger gal — very sweet, personable and spot on with her drinks.
To back up a little… My husband and I wandered in here one night after opting not to even walk in the place across the street — we’re in our early thirties, but that place seemed WAY to ‘young’ for us! We were thrilled when we walked in to Sidetrack where they were playing old country songs and the crowd was super laid back (our kind of place). The second time we went in there the bartender remembered us! — even remembered our names! To me, that means a lot in today’s world.
Anyway, we love it here, I hope newbies or even old timers will stop in and give them a chance. Something must have changed over the past year or so because as many times as we’ve been here we’ve never had a negative experience.
Sorry… I realize I’m all over the board on the review — wanted to throw in there — The food is GREAT too!

Big fan of the bartenders mieke Julie and especially Alison. The food is good with very generous portions. There’s kareokee which really isn’t my favorite thing to listen to but the host does a good job and has a good voice. The remodel did wonders for the looks of the place. Decent selection of draft beers and alcohol. Warm inviting and killer breakfasts from 9am to 2. Weekend specials that aren’t on the regular menu and are well executed and tasty.

Went to the Sidetrack last night with my husband, daughter and her boyfriend for a relaxed Saturday night dinner. We had heard that the place had been renovated and food was good. We ordered our drinks and then ordered a couple of appetizers while we were deciding what to have for dinner. It took at least 45 minutes to get our appetizers and when we did, one of them was practically cold. The potato skins had been sitting and the wings were not tossed in the buffalo sauce. It was served cold and in a dish along the wings??? We ordered our dinner a soon as the appetizers came and after another 45 minutes went by and after asking 2 times where the salads were we decided to get up and leave. This is the worst service I have every encountered. Never going back.

We have been log time patrons of the sidetrack, we have seen many cooks and owners come and go. Historically we have had some great times, and some not not so great times, there but we kept going back. Just the frequency diminished.
The remodel is beautiful, hard to believe its the same place. It looks great. The crowd is fun, not too rowdy, but there was some dancing next to the pool tables. This evening to old school funk! lots of fun.
Since they re-​opened recently (8 days ago?) I am ashamed, and delighted to say we have eaten there 4 times.
The first event was Nacho’s. We were not expecting much, its nacho’s. The chips were home made, and the toppings were fresh, very good.
The second was breakfast, we are so excited to hear the biscuits and gravy were back, and we were not disappointed! the portions were ample, and the gravy did not disappoint, (not canned) large chunks of sausage is a velvety cream sauce. If I can figure out how I will post a picture.
The third we split an order of a new item, the chicken sliders. Wow, amazing everyone at the table sampled and loved them. It is fried chicken breast sliced on a grilled bun (grilled in butter) topped with the same lovely sausage gravy!
This evening we had the pizza, a new addition to the sidetrack repertoire. We had extra mouths to feed at home so we ordered two pizza’s. The man ordered a bacon, sausage, pepperoni pizza, bacon was great a fabulous meat pizza. I ordered the Mediterranean pizza and was very pleased. I love artichokes, it was so refreshing to have a pizza where you could actually see and taste the artichokes! The chicken was in healthy chunks, and not skimpy in the amount at all. The mushrooms were real, not slimy from a can. wonderful!
I am glad they have re-​opened on such a grand scale. We will keep coming back, not just out of habit, but because the bar has been raised and conquered!

We used to frequent this place before it closed last year. It had gone downhill not only in service and quality, but in the quality of people that were frequenting the place. Stopped in there the other night to find it very different and in a good way! The place has been completely revamped. Wood panels have been added to the walls, the bar is lit up diplaying the liquor properly, the bar has been restained and sectioned to provide a better flow, more tvs added and booths added as well. It looks like a entirely new bar. I was very pleased with the clean up and the bartender was extremely friendly and attentive. We will definitely be going back, keep up the good work!

I’d be giving one star if the cook wasn’t entirely on point. the entire time the bartender was dickin around messing up drink/​food orders, the cook was trying his hardest to get food cooked, and to the tables that ordered them. not the cooks job. I feel bad for the guy. she even sent him out, in the middle of cooking our tables order, to get supplies she had apparently run out of. we could all sense his frustration, and rightfully so. the food was pretty good. very large portions. the bloody mary’s were kinda gross, but very strong. this lady is obviously high on something, very lackadaisical. I’ll give this place another chance if someone else is bartending. also, we watched a few tables walk out because they didn’t get any service let alone recognition after 10 – 15 minutes. now, how long is it gonna take to get our check?!?

Honestly when I came into sidetrack for the first time I kinda judged a book by its cover. I was shocked to see the staff has improved apparently since reading the horrible posts after going there. I do understand they have new ownership now? I have a best friend in that area, and we always go there on days off. Play poker and have some beers. Cute girls and staff (girls). I would recommend this place to family and friends.

Sidetrack Rocks! Great place, great food, great staff. They have free pool on Saturday evenings and a Monday night pool tournament, darts, different types of regular poker tournaments, daily food specials, special events, sometimes live music, and great people. I love their taco special on Mondays. Yum!

we loved this place when we first moved here six years ago! However over the last two years things have gone WAY downhill.
What happened? The food is no longer good, the staff is rude, and it’s just not clean. Thankfully Jimmy T’s has cleaned up its act, and improved their food.

I stopped going to this place. They have decent food, but you never know when they are going to be open. I went there 3 hours before they were supposed to close one night. The bartender refused to serve my friend and I because they «hadn’t had enough business» and were closing early… There were 4 guys in there plus my friend and I! Lame.
