Specializing in Everyday Adventures

The Sidecar takes you on culinary adventures for the taste buds and musical adventures for the soul. Our cozy neighborhood eatery and music venue located in the heart of Historic Downtown Batavia is a peaceful respite in between all the ventures great and day to day.

Expect the best darn hand-ground, hand-packed burgers around, house smoked bacon varieties, scratch-made comfort foods to pair with an accommodating and unique lineup of craft beverages. Seasonally, the bar expands into a 5-tiered beautiful outdoor beer garden with live performances and the most pup-friendly seating in the TriCities.

If you're spending time adventuring the Fox River Valley, fishing or kayaking, passing through on a bicycle or motorcycle, or just looking to enjoy a great meal and a tasty beverage in a cozy, laid back atmosphere, Sidecar is your home away from home.
