    London Fog
    Keith F.

    This restaurant/coffee shop has a lot of great drinks! We settled in after walking around the river and were quickly seated. Our server was friendly and gave us a couple of suggestions. My London Fog was absolutely fantastic! It was one of the best ones I have ever had and I drink them often!!!! I loved the lavender sprig on top. The grilled cheese was AMAZING! Wow! Tons of flavor with crispy cheesy edges. It was a large sandwich and quite filling. I did the swap for the hummus and veggies. It was delicious. I forgot to get a picture of the sandwich but it is something I would definitely order again. The prices are a little high but not ridiculous. I would come back.

    Latte

    Was in the area for work and stumbled upon this place. It gets quite popular, so you may want to reserve a table. This is a CASHLESS establishment. Waitstaff was extremely friendly, the vibe here is "comfy trendy". They serve differnt types of sweet and savory waffles, as well as non waffle dishes. There is an interesting ramen waffle I wanted to try, but am a basic waffle lover at heart. Inside and outside seating. I would definitely come back here again.

    Frittata
    Aly M.

    Great location down town and has a kind of hang out vibe with darker setting and bar feel. Also had a surprisingly good salad and frittata for the bar-waffle vibe they had going on. The salad had croutons that were made from maple-waffles. Overall, food was great. Limited servers but we came at an off hour. Friendly, nice and punctual with the food.

    Do you love waffles? If your answer is yes, then this is one place you NEED to try out in Grand Rapids. The place is Stunning! Food is so unique and tasty, Country Grammar is my favorite as of now! Waiter was so nice explaining all options our first time coming. Can't wait to go back and try more waffles.

    Espresso Martini
    Alyssa H.

    We had a great experience at Social Misfits! We ordered the bar mix and two espresso martinis to start. The bar mix was fabulous, I think the only thing that could make it better is it was served warm. The espresso martini was the best I've had in Grand Rapids by far. Their statement on the menu is so true. For lunch we ordered the Peter Pan and Teen Spirit. Both were amazing. The chicken could have been seasoned more but the Mac n cheese made up for that. 100% will come back!!!

    Seated immediately on a Friday morning. Service was friendly and attentive without being over the top. Great recommendations and I was able to get sweet with a side of savory (chicken). Soooo yummy and presented beautifully. One of my favorite stops this trip.

    Monte cristo
    Keyin L.

    Came here for a work dinner and we ordered the monte Cristo and Nashville hot. Both portions were huge but delicious. We sat right by the window and it was overall a great time!

    Bananas Foster Iced Latte = 10/10! Loved being able to enjoy cocktails at night and then wake up to a delicious latte in the morning during our stay at the Residence Inn.

    Service was fantastic (staff is amazing), food was fantastic, cocktails were fantastic but they need a fucking exhaust fan in their kitchen because why is your entire restaurant smoky as shit so much that you can see it before you even walk in!?

    Lox waffles
    Gabi S.

    The food here was amazing 10/10. I ordered the chicken and waffles and the lox waffles - the lox was my favorite! I wanted to order the Mac and cheese on my waffle but at the time they ran out. I had a beautiful espresso martini as well. The inside of the restaurant was very cute and I loved all the large windows. The only downside was the wait to get serviced took a very long time. This was on a Sunday so I understand being busy but it took over an hour for our food to come in. 4/5 only because of the long wait to get in and out food to come out but overall loved it and would go back!

    Butter chicken
    Bridgette Z.

    The wait time to get in was very long but there isn't a lot of seating so I could see why that was an issue. Otherwise, our server was amazing and friendly. All of our food was delicious and the drinks are very strong. Highly recommend the monte cristo sandwich!

    3.75 This place was super cute, kinda if old world charm and tech had a baby, lol. I was seated at a table and the waitress presented me with menus. She turned out to be awesome, very attentive and willing to answer my multitude of questions. She recommended some good local beers. I ended up ordering the grilled cheese and that's where I went wrong. Social Misfits take on it is too big and tastes too much like pancake or waffle to me. Unfortunately I didn't eat much of it and left it at the restaurant on my way out. I'd return, I'd just definitely get something else next time.

    I finally got to try Social Misfits, and it didn't disappoint! I went with my brother on a Saturday and it was pretty packed, though luckily there were still a few tables to spare (we did go around noon, which is the prime time for lunch/brunch). I do recommend going early if there's a specific item you want to try! They ran out of the R.B.G. when we ordered. We ordered the Yasuke, Country Grammar, and the Ol' Blue Eyes to share and they were super delicious! Our favorite was the Yasuke one. I'll definitely have to come back to try the other ones!

What really stood out was the bartending -- not just the skill, but the passion. After hearing the bartender's take on the Old Fashioned, I let him make it his way -- and it might be one of the best I've had. Balanced, bold, and beautifully smooth. Two of my friends described what they were in the mood for, and the bartender crafted custom cocktails for each of them -- both drinks were spot on and had them raving the rest of the night. If you're in Grand Rapids and want a cocktail experience that goes beyond the ordinary, SidebarGR is a must. Expert mixology, great atmosphere, and personalized service that makes you feel like a regular -- even on your first visit.

To find the entrance, go down the stairs towards Big O's Pizza and instead of turning right, take a left and you will see Sidebar's subtle entrance. It's dim lit and quite cozy in there. Limited seating and some spots at the bar were open and we took a seat up there. We did notice to the right of the bar there is a small additional area with more seating but still not a lot. I really enjoyed the espresso martini from here. The drink was so smooth and had the perfect balance of flavors. Highly recommend. We only stayed for one drink but I would definitely come back for another sometime. The bartenders were also really kind and having a good time with everyone in there! Really loved the atmosphere and our experience while we were there.

That said, it is pretty painless. You can sign up on the spot and the email with the code comes through within minutes, so it does not slow things down too much. They offer outdoor seating even in the winter, and while it is technically heated, you will still need a coat. It was cold enough that we chose to sit inside instead, but the interior was also chilly. Every time the door to the patio opened, a draft of cold air rushed in, which made the space feel colder than expected. The drinks are on the expensive side, but the quality mostly backs up the price. I ordered the Donna's Kiss and it was absolutely worth it, very well made and delicious. My friend had a Moscato that was sweet and easy to drink. We also ended up getting two free shots of tequila because they liked our vibes , which was a nice and unexpected bonus! Definitely a great move on their behalf because it just goes to show that the staff there were super welcoming and that makes me want to come back (probably when it's warmer!!).

He gave great recommendations and walked us through the menu & style wonderfully. Our food was also delicious. Nothing disappointed on the menu! All in all, the food was spectacular, the space is gorgeous, and service once seated was amazing. The only star taken away was for the issue of timeliness, which could easily be due to the rush of a Friday night. We hope to return in the future!
