3 months agoFun place to visit while on your Route66 road trip, congratulations on driving 100 years of memorable nostalgia!
Bo Rogers
5 years agoAn albuquerque institution, and one of its final true “LGBTQIA” friendly establishments here in the southwest, “Sides” is locally owned by two wonderful men whose philanthropic work throughout our community have made them both integral to our cities character and spirit! What would we do without Renee and Michael?? Sometimes folks go to a bar like Sides with expectations that aren’t fair, then they leave nasty comments and reviews; please know that their hurt does not adequately represent what you will experience if you visit... sides is a great place, I have a great time when I go there, and I adore the gentlemen that own this place. The customers are sexy, and the folks that work there are hotties too!

5 years agoI've been coming here for almost 10 years. The atmosphere is always friendly and the service consistently goes above and beyond. Since moving to their new location, they have branched out into food and let me tell you! Every item I've eaten gives that home-cooked goodness without exorbitant prices. My recommendation, stop by for a drink, one of their many productions or just a bite to eat. You will not be sorry!

2 years agoI enjoyed it very much. Nice atmosphere, good size outdoor patio and the drag show room was a lot of fun. I had no issues with any staff and they were all so friendly and energy. Drinks were great and great prices. I’m visiting from California and I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting ABQ.

year agoOkay. No lies. The food here is good! Despite it being in a bar, the food is actually quite tasty. I usually like to order and take it out to eat. Or maybe eat it their, depending on the vibe of the bar. The service could be a little better, having one bartender/waitress tends to be a bit waiting and annoying. But other than that, the food here is awesome !! I had the Navajo Burger 🍔! and I also like to give a huge props to the owners of the grill for correctly naming their dishes. (Coming from their place of origin). Thank you and I will definitely be ordering here more frequently.

6 years agoJust moved here. I feel like this bar was very underrated by locals, decent prices and friendly people. We come often now for drinks and gear night. There are many rooms like the dancing floor and karaoke room, they turn the karaoke room into The ABQ Eagle which is very nice. Their restrooms are also very large and decently clean for it being a busy bar. They also have a leather store open on the weekends here, items are made locally. Very cool bar.

10 months agoBeing from out of town , the receptionist was very friendly, welcoming and informative. As a lesbian couple we felt comfortable and at ease. Our drinks were great as was the bingo game bieng entertaining. We truly enjoyed our visit and look forward to future visits.

2 years agoBar was clean! A door attendant checked your id to ensure you’re legal to drink etc l. Great music in the background while we enjoyed your drink and chatted with the patrons who were friendly. The drink was cheaper than I expected so that a plus to return. Overall was a great experience visiting my first gay bar I Albuquerque and will return!

5 months agoI write, therefore I like to experience new things. This experience was a bit terrifying in the sense that I chose to go in alone to an alternative club, when in fact, it was just a fun club like any other. These folks greeted me, treated me like a neighbor, respected my non-drinking and they gave me info about the club and upcoming shows. All I can really say is; sometimes being welcomed in, is all someone needs to get comfortable.
