    I keep seeing this being referred to as a "dive bar" and it's not what I expected. The place was clean with a fantastic collection of bottle and draft beers. They have a great selection of spirits too from favored vodka's etc. They were pretty busy for a Wednesday night but bartenders were friendly and did a good job of getting our drinks despite a healthy crowd. They have a few TV's for watching sports and a pool table. I don't know what more you could want in a little local bar. I noticed that there is a door inside that connects to the building next door with some food options so you can get snacks and a bit while watching the game and enjoying a beverage.

    Okay, so let's talk about Burton's. It is one of my absolute favorite sports/dive bars in the Thornton Park district. Nothing truly special about it, but it is solid as far as a place to get a good variety of reasonably priced craft beer and spirits. It has both inside and outside seating, a full bar, pool tables and Darts. A great place for groups or to watch a college game or sporting events. When I am in that area I usually stop in for a beer or three. I absolutely love Burton's.

    Burton's is a neighborhood dive bar, as many have mentioned, in the Thornton Park neighborhood. They have a few tables outside and a small TV on the wall. On the side of the building are two murals. I was happy to see one of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Inside is a little dark and divided in two sections with the bar separating the two sides. As you enter you are on the bar side where there are some high-top tables. On the opposite side are arcade games, pool tables and more seating. They have a decent selection of beer on tap and in bottles and cans. The staff were nice enough. I really did not interact much with them and sat outside. They do not serve food, but next door is the Mason Jar Provisions scratch kitchen where you can order food and they will bring it to you at the bar. You may want to order food first, then go to the bar and get your drink and seat.

    Friends come here to drink. Cheers for me. I love everyone. They let me play the jukebox today. It's kind of nice. I have some of their friends. Everybody is so wonderful wonderful. Yay I have to fill-in so many characters. Otherwise I can't post my pictures.

    Bathrooms are clean too and have a pleasant smell to them (or at least the woman's restroom!) This place has got a couple pool tables and dart boards, and you can order bar food.

Love the horror theme and they play horror movies on the TVs. Definitely a touristy kind of place. They have video games and specialty drinks. There are mocktales and shots, but really they taste about the same, super sweet. I loved there selection of craft beer in the cans and bottles. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for a cool way to spend a few hours.

They have a ton of great items and would have loved to spend more time in the shop but it was getting close to last call at their bar and wanted to make sure I tried a drink. The bar itself is quite small, but it packs a bunch with décor. There is so much to see and every time you look a different way, there's something else you didn't see before. When I came, it was really not crowded which is good because like I said, it is small so it was nice to be able to walk around. My friends and I all tried different drinks and they were all really good. The service was fast and efficient. I would definitely check this place out again and recommend. According to other comments, they do change up the drinks so I would love to try something else.

A group of 6 men came up being inappropriate to me and the side bar bouncers instantly noticed and told me i could hang with them until my fiance came out. They were clearly aware of their surroundings, professional, and made a small 27 year old woman feel very safe!!! next time im in downtown Orlando i will be going to side bar just because of these men. I never got their names but to the two lovely and kind men outside side bar at 1 am on Friday may 2, you have my utmost respect and I hope whoever is the owner/manager sees this comment and recognizes that you're not only good people to your customers but also random girls on the street who are being harassed. I'm going to recommend this bar to every person I know whether it's guys or all girls on a night out because I know they'll be taken care of. Please give them a thank you for me if you see this.

    Side Bar is a Downtown Orlando staple. I've been venturing to this little hole-in-the-wall bar for…read morenearly a decade now, and I've watched it grow in popularity over the years to what it is now. While it is nothing like it used to be back when Vintage, Vyce, and some of the older bars/night lounges existed, it is still a solid spot. It has also SURVIVED the various neighboring bar changes throughout the years. The bartenders, throughout the years, have also been quite solid! I have a couple of favorites that I always look for when I visit. Even the doormen are cool people. They have resident DJs that play throughout the week and weekends - all are pretty good! The vibe is usually pretty chill. The nights when they are slower are my favorite because they can get pretty packed. Service is usually pretty great. From time to time, they have specials/deals. They offer nice, fairly affordable mid-shelf (or top-shelf) drink options (as well as well-drink options). They also offer hookahs, if you are into that. Please keep in mind that if you have cash on you, you can get the hookah at a discounted rate. They have a decent number of TVs if you are looking to watch any games. As the name suggests, it is a "side" bar, so seating there is limited, but it does make for more than enough on slower days/nights. They have great hours, and you can also order food from Gitto's next door at the bar counter. All in all, it is a good spot to add to bar-hop rotation or to just visit in general.
