Everyone around the neighborhood kept telling me to try this place out. One person said the food was subpar but it's all about the experience. I will have to agree! There are tons of beers to chose from so if your a beer fan, come here and eat after you drank a couple. The food will probably taste better then.... More

It's a friendly neighborhood and regional "joint" for great ribs, wings, salads, burgers, etc., plus a great beer selection, friendly bartenders and waitstaff, sports on the tube, and good music through the jukebox system. Drawbacks: crowds and noise and less-than-comfy chairs in the dining room. (We usually get takeout, at which they are very efficient and professional.)

The menu is good, the food is great and the staff is very friendly. Huge portions of basic bar and grill food at good prices. Free popcorn for everyone. Good place for kids! The atmosphere is no frills pub, but that's its charm!

Big burgers and fries in a down home, local spot surrounded by interesting memorabilia. Not far from the college so draws a big bar crowd later in the evening, but a nice cafe for families earlier on for lunch or dinner. Fun place to go, always warm and inviting with lots of good spirit.

Went for lunch. Big menu. Hamburger was good on a hard roll. Served with choice of fries, sweet potato fries or baked potato AT NO EXTRA COST!!! My friend had a lucious looking grilled chicken sandwich on a Portugese roll with roasted peppers. We didn't have them, but we learned there are some great coupons on their web site. More... More

Side Street Café Side Street Café is the opposite of the trendy, sterile, franchise no personality restaurant and bar that seems to pop up today. Nestled in the land of the Sleeping Giant it’s a throwback to the warm, cozy, worn taverns of days past. The décor is authentic and features a curious mix of bygone Americana. It’s loaded with...

Above average bar food with VERY large helpings. This "restaurant' is really a small pub with a very casual atmosphere, well prepared food, an extensive beer offering, and very large helpings. An entree averages about 8 -9 dollars. While just off of Whitney Ave (RT 10) it may not be that easy to find for non-locals
