Sidewinders Bar and Grill

Before you decide to go to Sidewinders Bar and Grill realize this is an LGBTQ bar,

We went to Wendy’s here on Friday, the 12th, and it sucked. We got scammed by getting VIP, and it said we would have our own special seating and our own personal bartender. But the seating was a joke; it was the tiniest area with folding chairs, and the bartender was open to everyone else too, not just VIP. The drinks were not the best. Why was there VIP? I don’t get it, and we got a Pride bag with Dollar Tree items. We wasted our money there and will not be going back. Sidewinders is not a good place to go. Do not recommend it, especially for Pride. We got scammed badly, and the atmosphere was weird. We are gay and got weird looks from everyone. We did not feel welcoming at all.

We have a private event here that was a blast! Our host, Daniel, was the most entertaining karaoke MC you could ask for. The sound system was on point, the facilities were clean and comfortable and the bar staff was super sweet and upbeat. Great place to party or do some karaoke with the homies!

This is an AC/DC kind of bar and it is a fun place for people watching. Some people are only half dressed in outrageous costumes. The bar can be hectic at times so I will sit at one of the high, round tables near the bar (no seats at the bar) and wait until most people have ordered and left, then I will go to the bar and order my Blue Moon beer. Every body seems to get along with each other very nicely.

Impatient bartender with attitude on a slow night.

How this place is still open is baffling. The staff is incredibly rude. They do last call early and sell you a drink to turn around and close and force you to throw that drink away minutes later and literally scream at you to leave. The bartenders also can't keep track of who they're serving and let their friends cut in the long lines. They cut us off after two seltzers over a 2 hour time frame and told us to drink water and then threatened to kick us out and got aggressive while we stood off to the side minding our own business. They charge a cover most nights for an empty bar with overpriced drinks and terrible music. Their "bouncer" and bartenders are rude and have anger issues.
