ROB Camra left this review about Side Bar
Very smart bar on the way down to Grape Street. Up a few steps after the entrance area, there's often someone waiting to seat you, but luckily there was no-one around on my Friday afternoon visit, so I went straight to the bar. No real ale of course, but a slightly more interesting than usual selection of kegs. I had a half of fizz costing roughly an arm and sat down in the plush surroundings. It's a pleasant place even of an afternoon when it was ticking over nicely.
