Side Street Saloon

This place is a neighborhood classic that never disappoints!Great bar food, great service and the vibe is kind of its own thing...Cool Grandma?Go here, eat & drink. You'll be glad you did!

Great local dive bar with everything you need including board games, touch tunes, pool, and good grub. And for a dive bar, it's clean with a nice bright interior. It was also packed on this Saturday after the cubs game with the locals that are on a first name basis with the bartender. We eventually ordered some food after rounds of different draft beers. The Buffalo chicken salad and chicken quesadilla were both delicious and great portions. Great quality and taste!

This is an unpretentious, typical Chicago corner bar. The tavern style pizza (thin crust, square cut) is my favorite in Chicago. Not too thin (Bungalow by Middlebrow is way to thin IMO), but thinner than a lot of other places I've tried. This place is just perfect.

This is your classic Chicago neighborhood bar but what I would say that sets it apart is their tavern style pizza. It's fantastic - a thin flaky crust that is perfect. On this occasion I went with their pineapple, pepperoni and jalapeño special. My new favorite by far. I've also tried their cheese curds and fried pickles which were excellent as starters. Lots of domestic, craft and import beers to choose from. The bartender was super friendly and answered all our questions. Do visit this place even though it's a little off the beaten path!

If you're looking for a casual neighborhood dive bar to watch a game and hang out with a few friends, this is the perfect spot! The pizza is classic Chicago style thin crust, and they have a good variety of drink options. Note that it's cash only and there's usually only one bartender working, but the relaxed vibe and convenient location makes this a great bar!

Bartender doesn't have a clue on Sundays. Never acknowledged me or offered to serve me but stood 5 feet away for 10 minutes. Won't ever come back to this joint.

Fun local bar that may not be the most convenient to get to but is worth a little walk for some good drinks and food. It's in an area with not a whole lot going on, so it's visited pretty much mostly by the people who live around here. Side Street Saloon is welcoming to anyone though. Maybe it's a little more expensive than it should be. This isn't a total dive because of the prices, and the food isn't bad, with them being known for pizza. After hanging at a few other bars around here, we came. It wasn't that crowded inside. The bar is bigger than it looks. Clean looking for a dive. We got a few drinks, and has some food too. It's about $7 for an average cocktail. These are the cheaper ones. Kind of high for a dive. The food is the other thing it's known for, including pizza. As for us, this time we had the Salsa And Chips. It's about $8 for a lot. Good for being kind of basic. There's other food such as cheese curds and junk. Bars like this are a good way to meet people in the neighborhood, as it's convenient for locals to get to being out of the way from things a bit. It's located east of Ashland at George and Greenview. This is also cash only.

Great place. It was our first visit. We already know what we're ordering the next time around!

Traditional neighborhood bar. Nothing commercial around it for blocks.I love their giardiniera tavern / thin crust pizza!

This is a neighborhood bar serving totally legitimate tavern style pizza. This is what old school Chicago is all about. If you live in the neighborhoodFeel fortunate and get over there and support them. Cash only
