    They just recently added a happy hour!! Monday through Friday happy hour. Super friendly staff. See pics for new menu. Tuesday is BOGO drafts.

    Chef salad

    This place has great beer prices but also great food. I have tried all the salads and they're my favorite hands down. Loaded with meat and a huge portion you can make two meals. The pricing it's great for the value you're getting. Hands down one of the best lunch choices in down town Inverness. Service is always fast and great. Small town feel inside and out that's quiet and relaxing.

    "Sidebar Special" mini pizza.

    Great happy hour. Half off 6 inch pizza and Bogo beer. We go often. Very nice to sit outside when the weather is good. Pet friendly outside patio. Friendly service, good vibe.

    My sister and I's favorite bar in downtown Inverness! The bartenders and owners are always so friendly, accommodating, and the atmosphere is so homey. Sam brought out chalk and trucks for my two year old while we sat outside! Always a great select of craft beers and I LOVE their chicken salad

    Sidebar is the best small-town bar around. The bartenders always make everyone feel so welcome even if it is your first time visiting. I can not recommend this place enough. They are opening up a kitchen soon and my group was lucky enough to taste their first pizza and WOW! So much cheese and even more flavor. We didn't get to take a picture in time. 5 stars for service and 5 stars for the food.

    I've visited MC Wine Bar twice and had a good time both times. There was free popcorn to be had as…read morewell, and it was fresh, and it was good, so kudos there! The bar staff has been friendly and chats us up about the beers available (yep, we were there for the craft beers, thank you very much! Other nearby patrons were also friendly and joined in conversations as well. They do have live music on the weekends and as it is a small place the front area where the musicians perform can get pretty crowded. However, sitting at the bar or in the back of the bar you can still have conversations without having to yell, which I definitely appreciate. If you aren't into wine or beer (somehow) there is also a "loophole" menu in which you can order wine-based-alcohol drinks such as mojitos and cosmos. I haven't yet tried those, but I will be doing so on the next visit!

    I have been hear a few different times and have never been disappointed. The staff's knowledge of…read morebeer and wine is outstanding. Their creativity is second to none as they use wine as a base to make martinis, margaritas, and shots. The live music is always pleasant. You are able to hold a conversation without having to yell to the person next to you. Even though there is no kitchen here, they offer to go pick up food from 3 different local restaurants, Coaches, Pine Street Tavern, and Motor City. The staff has always been engaging and provide great service. This makes me want to come more often as I always feel welcome. As I said in the beginning, this wasn't my first visit, and it will not be my last.
