SideBar: 
Despite the number of young and good-looking people flocking to the neighborhood, Union Square still suffers from a shortage of places to go after yoga/Greenmarketing/holistic dance classes. With seven flat-screen TVs, a dance floor, and two private rooms, SideBar is well equipped to handle this crisis in style. The persnickety menu at this upscale sports bar—foie gras devilled eggs, grilled sirloin steak sandwiches, goat-cheese stuffed lamb burger—indicates that owners Mike Sinensky and Sean McGarr (of the Village Pourhouse) are trying to pole vault into the league of Gramercy Tavern, not Pete’s. If this strategy falls short, at least they know a little something about location—Village Pourhouse lives across from dance/rock venue Webster Hall and benefits greatly from its post-concert crowds. Similarly, SideBar’s placement next to the equally-popular Fillmore at Irving Plaza is sure to attract concertgoers eager to pre- and post-game it. Let’s just hope its position on Irving Place, not Park Avenue South, keeps it from turning into the next Union Square meathead central.

I love this place and come as much as possible. Great bartenders that know how to handle a crowd and a good looking bunch of people that knows how to party.
