This is my favorite place to go when my sister comes to town! They make a dynamite Manhattan that she gets every time , and I love the variety of new drinks offered. The Brussels Sprouts appetizer is generous and tasty. The sliders are good and well-prices. There is usually a booth open, and the spirit in the place is just right for hanging out. read more

Sidecar Slider Bar - Lansing - The Carolina! Yes Yes and Yes. In town for business wanted a cold beer and bite to eat. This late night spot hit the spot. - Burgers Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

Was in town visiting a friend and wondered into this bar. There were only three parties in the restaurant but we did wait a minute to get seated. Nonetheless the waitress was really nice and gave us a lot of recommendations on what to order and even let my friend taste the beers before he picked which one to get. The Brussel sprouts were amazing! Really well seasoned and cooked perfectly. I also loved the sweet potato fried and the sliders. I'd come back here with a bigger group of people because food came out quick! read more

Prices are too high for a little tiny burger and only a handful of fries! What a rip off!

We stopped in on a Friday for a quick lunch. Our server was very friendly and attentive. I had a spicy marg and my fiancé had a beer. Both were fine. We ordered the cheese curds, sliders, and a fry to share. Our appetizer came out at the same time as our entrees but oh well. One slider was definitely enough - they are big sliders. We had a large fry but definitely could have gone with the small. Nice environment and would come back. read more

What i had here was amazing and I would definitely come again and get something else. First the fact that you can get any burger substituted with a veggie burger which was awesome. I went with the Get Him to the Greek and ut was amazing i would definitely get it again. The parmesan fries were good i would get them again but would think about a different side also. The drink was recommended by the bartender and it was amazing perfect for spring time. read more

Service was so slow. It took like a half hour for us to get our food and we didn't even order much. Our waitress was no help. Checked on us once with a "hows it going?" but we were still waiting for food. What do you mean? She's also vaping by the kitchen door while we're sitting here wondering if we're gonna eat. When our food finally did come out its room temperature at best. We still ate it because we were going to a concert and didn't have time to wait for a reheat or anything. Im super disappointed and would not return or recommend this place to anyone. It's not even busy. read more

Truffle fries were great - not too strong with the truffle flavor but enough to know that it's there (for anyone sensitive to the flavor). Love the aoli that came with it. Sliders were a good size. Clean and classic burger restaurant and fulfilled my burger cravings! read more

Parking is not ideal. There are a few spots on the street but after that it's a a good walk from behind the building. We got drinks quickly and ordered a chips and salsa appetizer. Not enough chips and Coors light was very flat. Everything was great besides that. The we waited over 45 minutes. They seemed understaffed. 9 tables and one server. A lot of tables looking around with no food. This is 1:00pm on a Saturday. Food came to our table cold. Waitress seems overwhelmed. The food tastes great even tho it is cold. I don't think I'll be back tho. Waitress will still be tipped well. Not her fault she doesn't have support. I suspect kitchen staff is low too. read more

Lunch was awesome, it had warmed up so the doors were open and we enjoyed some fresh air and the sounds of the city. The service was fast and efficient. Our waitress was very friendly as always. I enjoyed a bowl of the chili and I have to say they do not skimp on the meat. My entrée was the six piece chicken strip and tater tots. The chicken strips are amazing as always. read more

We had a large group and we were taken care of quickly! Service was great and food was delicious! We will be back

Went a week ago on a Friday night! Atmosphere was great the food was tasty and hot. Today we had another try for dinner. The food was great service was good! read more

Fantastic experience during an 850 attendee conference. Last minute decision to visit Sidecar and Jackson and his team took action and accommodated a group of 25 + in a separate room. I wish I could remember our waitresses name, but she did a fantastic job and wasn't frazzled or missed an order. Outstanding sliders! Try the one with a PB&J with cheese and bacon! Thank you for making what could've been a bad night a memorable one. read more

I really really really wanted this place to be awesome. The concept sounded great and I hadn't really been to anything like it before (that involved burgers). The pics that I'd seen from other reviews, made it look cool inside. I literally skipped across the street to the front door because I was so excited. Both the outside and inside decor is very catchy with a kind of industrial vibe. Unfortunately that's where my excitement ended. Our waitstaff was not helpful at all, and didn't seem interested in being there. The wait time seemed to be forever. Every step of the process. We waited for menus, waited for drinks, waited to put in our order, waited for the food. With only a few people sitting at the bar, we were the only actual table in the whole restaurant. So it wasn't because they were busy, otherwise I could understand. We picked a variety of burgers because we wanted to try everything. I can't remember them exactly now for this review, but they really aren't worth mentioning anyway. There was nothing about any of them worth mentioning. They really could have hit a home run with some well seasoned custom meat/burger combo, but instead, everything was bland and lifeless. If those burger patties aren't frozen slabs of whatever beef, I have some swamp land in Florida to sell you. We sided our orders with waffle fries and tots because we wanted to try both. Even those weren't any better than what I could have made at home in my air fryer. I didn't go into the bathroom so I can't make comments about that. But the rest of the place was pretty spotless. Maybe they have more time to clean, because they aren't spending it on service or improving the food. Now maybe you're thinking I'm being a little harsh in my review. And maybe you're right. My review is a little late, and maybe things have improved since then. I will go back because I want this place to be awesome. I will try it again. I just hope I don't waste another trip there. read more

Yummy impossible sliders. Get a few- they are pretty small of course. So good! I wish I lived closer so I could go back for more.

Came in with friends visiting the EL area, stopped by for lunch. The fries were incredible, easily the best part of our meals. The sliders on the other hand, were just okay. I get this isn't fine dining but I swear all the patties were frozen and reheated, there was an overwhelming blandness going on. The chicken patty was easily the worst, don't know what was up with that. East Lansing already has a poor restaurant scene, it's sad this place couldn't be a tad better. read more

Awesome place to go for good bar food and a nice selection of drinks. Outside seating by a fire, indoor tables and chairs, and a bar all allow plenty of seating in what looks to be a small establishment. Service is always good too. read more

My server Briana was fabulous. On the other hand, the "bartender", I think her name was Hannah, took 15 minutes to make my drink. Once the drink was brought to me I received unwanted attitude. She was not hospitable at all. I was met with eye-rolls and one-word responses. No greeting, no smile, just a rushed drink and a cold shoulder. The cocktail I ordered was poorly made--watery, unbalanced, and definitely not worth the price, especially for how long it took. Bartenders are trained to be precise, efficient, and to make drinks in a timely manner. She obviously was not trained nor should be behind a bar. Look, I get it--bars get busy. But basic courtesy and professionalism shouldn't be too much to ask. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend this place if you're hoping for decent service. read more

Nate and I were leaving an outdoor event at The Nuthouse across the street and wanted to grab some food before heading back to our hotel - Sidecar Slider Bar had available seating and they were open til 2 am. The outdoor patio looked cozy - the evening was the perfect temperature so they had garage doors open onto the patio, which was really nice. The menu consists of sliders, hot dogs, salads, and some appetizers, which was perfect for us as we didn't want a huge meal. The sliders range from $3.25 for a plain or cheeseburger slider to $7.25 for an ahi tuna slider. I ordered the B-ham slider, with bacon, bleu cheese, tomato, and arugula, and the mushroom swiss slider, with balsamic, fried goat cheese, tomato, and arugula. Nate got a Carolina dog with pulled pork and slaw and the PB&J slider. We also ordered a side of tots. Food came out quickly and it looked great! The sliders were a good size - two was enough for me, if I was really hungry I would probably order three. The beef patties were thicker than I was expecting which was a nice surprise, and the quality of the meat seemed pretty good. They were also cooked nicely - juicy and medium. The B-ham slider was my favorite with bleu cheese, but the fried goat cheese on the mushroom swiss was also amazing. The hot dog was super messy to eat and had a tiny kick of heat - the flavors were great on this. The tots were fresh and a good portion. Our server was polite even when we made a mess spilling a water on our table. I really loved this spot and the concept. The fun photos of different motorcycles with sidecars were cute! I'd definitely come back and hope this type of concept comes to Grand Rapids someday. read more

This place had a good location downtown. The inside was spacious and seemed legit. However, the service and speed of food from order to table needs an improvement. The food seemed like it had been sitting for awhile to be delivered and our waitress needs some more training. We were really excited to try this location but will stick to the others on the east side of the state. read more

Worst experience I have had in a very long time. They told us it was a 15 minute wait then after waiting for 15 minutes with no one coming by or others there they tell us it will be a 30 minute wait. Horrible service . read more

Great ambiance, kind service, the bar is loaded with top shelf drink treats, and the Cobb salad was delicious!

The food was fun and really good. My wife and I both had an assortment of sliders and they were all very good. Sadly the service is the only reason I couldn't give them 5 stars. We got seated right away but not even a water for more than 20 minutes. We also witnessed three other couples leave for the same reason. Hopefully they can fix the issues read more

Beautiful ambience low lit, with music playing. Prices at happy hour are awesome. I have the chicken tenders and the pretzel bites. I also had a high noon strawberry. Had an absolutely wonderful time reading my book and enjoying lunch. Will definitely be returning. Colin was a rockstar. read more

Another great small eatery in Downtown Lansing. The Bbq Cobb salad was divine. My son inhaled the pickle fries. Great variety of beverages.

Excellent food, surprisingly good service, with aware staff. Keep rocking on rock stars! I never had to wait for anything, and all my demands were met with expediency and a smile, especially from Adriana! This is a great facility. I was told the food would be great, yet I arrived with little to no expectations due to other facilities in the area. But I was pleasantly surprised. Delicious food, far exceeding regional competitors, and graded beer recommendations from the staff that make this place quite a visitable institution. If you're in Lansing, visit this establishment, or you're selling yourself short! read more

Stopped by on a recent week night for a business mtg. First time at the Sidecar Slider Bar. Interesting place across the street from the Lansing Lugnuts stadium. TVs for viewing sports. Floor to ceiling windows to provide views of the busy street traffic. Nice atmosphere for. bar/pu/restaurant. The sliders were ok. More like snacks. Order at least 2 if you're hungry. The tator tot appetizer was enough for a meal. Good for bar food. Might try other menu items next time. Just as many people were here for drinks this night. Decent scene for a drink after work or before/after a Lugnuts game. read more

The food was tasty. I had the soup of the day which was brocolli cheddar. The soup was garnished with plenty of green onions which gave the soup a very nice flavor. The portions are small, so you can order a variety of things if you like or just order one thing and not worry about leftovers. I felt bad for our server. Even though it was only his second day which he told us multiple times, he was on his own. Consequently whenever anyone had a question, he had to go ask someone and get back to us. For parties of six or more SSB includes the gratuity in the bill. Even if you get separate checks. When it was time to pay, there was some sort of problem with our checks, or at least some of them, so he reprinted them and came back to our table before we had a chance to pay. He then had to ask who got what. I think our server could have benefitted from a longer orientation. read more

Went here with a friend last week and boy do I wanna go again. The food comes out within a reasonable time. Our server was nice. My friend got the chicken tenders and enjoyed them.

Sidecar Slider Bar - Lansing - Chicken Tenders, Tater Tots, Fried Chicken Slider, and another slider I can't remember the name of... - Burgers Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

Religious Yelp user, but seldom reviewer. However Sidecar was special enough of a place to justify the effort. Overall...fantastic! Specifics. The setting is kind of new age fusion. Cool place, a bit busy for an intimate date or if into deep conversation, but if upbeat and fun is what you're going w for this is a solid choice. Food: The wings might be the best I've ever had. Smoked and rubbed, they won't disappoint. I'm not a small guy, but two sliders was plenty. Went with a classic beef and a hot chicken. The beef was great and while the chicken was really good, I'd probably go a different route next visit. There WILL be a next visit! Waffle fries were the final addition and WOW, simply great. Lastly, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the fantastic service and recommendations. Clayton deserves the recognition. I tend to ask questions and he was insightful and very knowledgeable. Overall I don't toss around a five star review, but only when it is clearly deserved. Well played Sidecar. read more
