I checked out Side Street Dive on a Tuesday night. The vibe is great--cool layout, welcoming crowd, and they even had trivia going on, which added a fun energy to the space. Food-wise, no complaints. We ordered boneless wings, two Philly cheesesteaks with fries, and lemoncello desserts. Everything was well-presented and tasted really good. The bartender was attentive and did a nice job overall. That said, I left a bit disappointed. Between two glasses of Pinot Noir, two draft beers, and dinner, the bill came to around $160. Not unreasonable--but coming from someone in the industry, I was surprised there wasn't even a small gesture like a buyback, especially since we were celebrating my cousin's birthday. When I mentioned it, the manager asked if we were on happy hour drinks, which didn't really feel relevant to the point I was making. It wasn't about getting something for free--it was more about the experience and that extra touch of hospitality that makes a place stand out. They've only been open about a month, so I'm definitely willing to give them another shot. There's a lot of potential here, and the foundation is strong. Just hoping they lean a little more into that hospitality piece moving forward. read more

This review has nothing to do with food, service or atmosphere. As noted above I have been here before and have enjoyed my experience. This review is based on lack of concern for the customer. My wife and I headed over for trivia on Tuesday. Much to our surprise the place was closed? We literally walked up to the door with the guy that was SUPPOSED to host trivia. Tried the back door.. locked? Front door.. locked? WTF? Nothing on the website indicated they were closed.. just no one there. The trivia host made a call, not sure to who and found out they were closed Reason unknown. Really? He wasn't advised? As my wife and I sat in the car trying to decide what to do we saw numerous people with bewildered looks on the faces walking around the building wondering why the doors were locked. Note to the owners: not good. As potential customers we rely upon your website for scheduling. Random unexplained closures make us reluctant to return. As people who go out multiple times a week I must say this is HIGHLY unusual. read more

Ambiance is really nice! Great place for outdoor dining, it is very spacious and I could see it being very busy for the summer. The Service was great. However, the food was just okay for me. Pretty Average. I would recommend going here for a good social gathering. read more

Just went to the opening of the singing waitress brunch. Felt like I was right on Broadway! They're all amazing. Highly recommend. It's every Saturday afternoons. So much better than trekking to the city when you have a show like this! read more

I went to the grand opening for Side Street Dive and it was such a great event. The place has a really fun, laid back vibe and you can tell it is going to be a great spot to hang out. They did a really nice job with everything. The food was really good and not just typical bar food, and the drinks were on point. Everything felt well put together, especially for an opening event. The staff was super friendly and made the whole experience even better. I ended up going back after the event just to see how it felt on a regular night and it definitely held up. The drinks were consistently good and the service was just as friendly and attentive. It is always a good sign when a place feels just as solid after opening night. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely be back. read more

I was blessed to be about to go the Yelp pre-grand opening of this establishment. The place was huge, with a spacious bar and an outdoor area as well, which I know will be amazing in the summer. The staff were 10/10, friendly, accommodating and just really nice. I started out with the spinach and artichoke pinwheel, which was really good, also don't let me forget about the Bruschetta we had as well. Then came the chicken parm as well as different sections of pizza. I tried the margarita pizza and the buffalo pizza, which was my absolute fave! It was just the right amount of heat. I would definitely come back, especially during the summer, the place just had a great vibe and the bartenders were amazing too! read more

The staff provided exceptional service! Very attentive and friendly throughout the event. The food and drinks were really good, and you can tell there's quality behind what they're serving. I had a great experience and will definitely be back! read more

Great event! Super spacious interior and fun/industrial decor. We were served up lots of carbs. My fav was def the pizza. Cocktails were good but there was some inconsistency with them. I tried the Ranch water but I liked the Spicy Paloma way better. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The Photo Booth is always fun by DJ Dos. And loved the live music by Anthony. The outdoor area will definitely be great in the summer! read more

We had a fabulous fun night at the side street dive! Run for the spicy buffalo chicken pizza! You will not regret it. The staff is top notch! Come on down and enjoy the music and cool vibe! It has the outside deck from the old emporium! Dance floor after 10 on the weekends starting next week! Wheel chair accessibility is difficult. We brought our own ramp to get my hubby in. Wheel chairs not can get down to the deck. There are high top tables and regular height tables. Accessible bathroom is not big enough and does not have bars. Overall I loved the vibe!! read more

They let a dog sit on the table and eat off a plate of food. The same table you sit and eat at. When the owner of the dog took the plate away the dog proceeded to lick the food off the table. When I brought it to someone's attention they shrugged and said "we're dog friendly". It's disgusting. read more

Wish I could leave zero stars. Made a reservation 5 days in advance for the Knicks game. Arrived and was told by the hostess it would be an hour or more wait because people were sitting at reserved tables and "there's nothing we can do". When asked why they couldn't ask those people to move she had no answer. Asked to speak to the manager and was told they weren't there. This establishment is clearly very poorly run - I've worked in restaurants for years and have never been treated like this read more

Side Street Dive is such a great find--amazing food, awesome vibes, and the cocktails are on point. Everything we had was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The atmosphere is laid-back but still has a fun energy that makes you want to stay a while. Honestly, I can't wait for summer to fully enjoy their outdoor space--it already feels like it's going to be the perfect spot to hang out with friends. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to. read more

Enjoyed a sneak peak at the Side Street Dive in Patchogue that officially opens today, March 13. The atmosphere is lively and fun with eclectic artwork on the walls that has a vintage nod. The bar is large with lots of seating and the drinks were delicious. The s'mores martini comes topped with a toasted marshmallow that gets "roasted" in front of you. My favorite drink of the night was the Italian Cosmo which was light and refreshing. Food will include a variety of pizzas, pastas, cheesesteak, burgers and more. There is a lot of outdoor seating which is sure to be a popular spot this summer. read more

Fantastic venue, extensive menu, great atmosphere, attentive service, and terrific events! It is our new favorite place!

This place is a joke. Unorganized chaos, no management to be found. Serving underaged kids left and right. Over an hour wait time for overcooked inedible food. Horrible service. Get better management or close and let a better place take over read more

I just went there tonight. Understaffed and the bartender ignored us and 2 other couples for over 20 minutes. We tried to get eye contact to get a drink but she didn't even bother. She didn't acknowledge anyone and we saw another couple that was waiting longer than us frustrated and left. Her friends came to the bar and was greeted and got drinks right away. That's when we had enough and left and we talked to other people and they said she was doing that all night. Too bad it seems like a nice place and we will try again hopefully in the summer when they get more staff or a bartender that knows how to do her job. They lost numerous customers tonight due to her. read more

We were walking around town and expected a little pizza spot but it was a huge restaurant with a good vibe. The kitchen was close to closing but they made us two pies to go. Samantha was really welcoming and kind. The pizza came out fresh and was a perfect combination of every different style of classic. It was really good and theres a parking lot too. A bonus is that it's right across the street from one of my favorite local venues. Definitely will be back to try their salad and pasta. read more
