Fabulous drinks, all fresh ingredients! Bartenders and other customers were very real and nice to be around as a solo! Side car, the wine bar across the street and Flora are the Trifecta!

Tucked in the corner in the back of the building, this is a unique bar. Service is always good. Today I came and tried the special "sex and candy" (a tequila cocktail made with pop rocks... How can you go wrong?). It was delicious and as always, beautiful presentation. The bar is Small, but it has indoor and outdoor seating and a good vibe

The Arosa & The Bowed and Tied

5 Stars - Amazing Cocktails & Outstanding Service! I was visiting from Atlanta and stopped by Sidecar while in Tucson--what a great find! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe. There was no music, but honestly, it wasn't needed--the ambiance spoke for itself. Trevor, our bartender, was fantastic. He was friendly, attentive, and really knew his cocktails. We tried the Bowed and Tied, the Arosa, and a special drink called the Honeymoon Suite--each one was expertly crafted and absolutely delicious. Sidecar is definitely a spot I'll be returning to next time I'm in town. If you're looking for a place with great drinks and even better service, this is it!

Came here after dinner for a nice cocktail. It is a small place on the inside so there wasn't much seating. We came dinner the winter, so the outside patio would be nice when the weather is warmer. We both enjoyed our drinks and would for sure come back!

Oaxaca Dry Sour and a delicious Paloma.

Stopped in here following a wonderful dinner at Falora next door. First time visit - nice tip for newbies, you can have Falora menu items delivered to sidecar while enjoying one of their excellent cocktails from an infinite list. Wonderful vibe, cool setting, solid mixologists, and great customer service. Enjoyed an Oaxaca dry sour, paloma (with fresh grapefruit juice), a flying leap - all spectacular. Everything was extremely clean - will definitely return and strongly recommend. Cheers and thank you to the staff of sidecar for a great couple of nightcaps!

The first time I came here I instantly loved the ambiance. The smell of the fresh orange garnishes, the music, the lighting. Easily my favorite place in Tucson for a drink. My favorite is the prohibition. If you've never been, definitely check it out!

Our go-to cocktail lounge, love sitting at the bar. Would recommend a drink but there are just so many to choose from. Their Kentucky seems to be the most popular, but I think I started with a Prohibition the first time around. My personal favorite (currently) is probably the Oaxaca. Best bang for your buck here, in my humble opinion. 5* = A top favorite. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient or the only option. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = Stay away at all costs!

This is my 2nd week in Tucson. My mother has been in the hospital and a short stay in a nursing home rehabilitation center. This evening, I decided I should have a fabulous cocktail. I found this place on Yelp, and it didn't disappoint! The menu had a lot of drinks, but I wanted something different. I asked for a sweet tequila drink. They put much thought into it and truly made my night. Ty

Sidecar is an absolute gem. My friends and I stopped by for drinks before an event because we could also order from Falora's menu next door - talk about a win-win! The drink options at Sidecar are on point, with a good range of choices, including impressive non-alcoholic options. The vibes are cozy and inviting, perfect for a chill hangout with friends or a date night. The cherry on top? The friendly service that made us feel right at home. Just a heads up - it tends to get busy, so it's a good idea to arrive early if you have a favorite table in mind.

Not a place to sit and have a drink with friends or coworkers. Sound system is too loud. Left with a raspy voice from having to shout.

We ordered a higher end bottle as a gift. Our server-bartender , Sara, was sensational! She chatted about the specific bottle we chose, shared a bit about the business, and helped us pick a charcuterie board to share! The atmosphere has a quirky-elegant, creative vibe, celebrating local artists with the paintings and ceramics for sale. As an artist myself, I especially loved the large mural encompassing the entire space! The snack choices were perfect! The fig jam, cheeses, and warm baguette really hit the spot and paired well with the wine! Our friends had a blast! We are really looking forward to the next celebration there!

The place was crowded but the service didn't improve even after the place emptied out. The only reason we stayed is because we were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time and were getting caught up. Vibe was good, and it was nice that they had a two person ensemble playing sax & keyboard, but their service is lacking. I hope they get some help, they would sell more drinks and make more to stay in business.

We shared the albacore tuna samich on focaccia and the best chips with a chefs charcuterie board! I did not want to leave! What a great deal! We were full for the rest of the day!!! There were a few other people at the bar and a few of the booths were taken. We were certainly able to carry our conversation as well as chat with folks around us! Everyone was chill enjoying their day. WHAT A FIND! Thank you baby Jesus!

My SIL and I enjoyed some wine--$6 a glass before 5. I went with the Sauvignon blanc and it was perfect for my tastes. Light and easy to drink! We also got bruschetta and the chef's charcuterie board. Everything was so yummy! My favorite bruschetta was the warm artichoke spread--which I didn't expect, but it was so good! They do a team-based service so several different people take care of you, making it pretty efficient. I'm sad it's taken me so long to come back, but I'm so glad I did and will make a point to come back soon!

UPDATE: I originally had a negative experience due to service from one staff member, but I want to…read moreupdate this after speaking with the owner, Rebecca, and the manager, Ashley. They were both incredibly kind, took the time to really listen, and genuinely understood my concerns. That meant a lot to me, and it's clear they truly care about their guests and their business. I also appreciated how personable Rebecca was, she was very present, empathetic, kind, and understanding, acknowledging that the situation had been handled very poorly. I've always loved the food here, you can taste the quality, creativity, and mindfulness in everything. Every other staff member I've encountered has been wonderful as well. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and honestly a great little getaway. Because of how this was handled and the consistency in everything else, I'm updating this to 5 stars. It's the kind of place where you can slow down, unwind from life's demands, share an impressive bite, and enjoy a glass of rosé while taking in the ambiance. I definitely recommend supporting this local business. Rebecca is a genuine, savvy businesswoman, and I really respect the care and intention behind what she has built. Cheers to letting the sunshine in and the dark cloud fade away. (Original review below for context) Very disappointing experience. Our server, Bryce, was dismissive, rude and inattentive from the start. He wasn't checking on our table at all, and we had to flag him down just to get drinks. We were still eating and planning to order more food and drinks, but service never improved. After waiting with empty glasses, I went inside to order another glass of rosé for myself and a second gin and tonic for my friend. That's when he told me he was "closing us out" and that we needed to leave. This was completely unprovoked and said in front of the bartender and other staff, which made the situation uncomfortable and unprofessional. We were not intoxicated or disruptive in any way. I had only had two glasses of rosé and was trying to order a third, and my friend had one cocktail and was ordering her second. The third glass I did receive appeared under-poured, which added to the overall discomfort, but at that point we were just trying to enjoy our time and catch up. It was surprising that a server would take it upon himself to cut off and remove guests under these circumstances, especially when basic service had not even been provided. Because of this, we chose not to order additional food or drinks. I've been here before with friends and clients and had good experiences, which makes this even more disappointing. This experience completely changed my impression, and I will not be returning

Our friend highly recomended we go to Sunshine Wine last night, and the location was lovely and the…read moreservice was fine. My concern is with the food--none of the dishes we ordered tasted good, and the price was high for the portions we received. The ceasar salad, for example, was bland, and the dressing was salty and bitter. When compared to the salad at a restaurant just down to road, I found this one inedible. I rarely write reviews and I don't do this in a mean-spirited way--I would love to see a local restaurant and bar succeed. It is just that we paid $83 for two drinks and 4 small plates, and couldn't eat two of them and left hungry. I hope the food can improve!
