In Short – A small, intimate place, located in a turn of the century building in Historic Oakwood. Side Street offers specialty sandwiches and homemade soups. Also beer and wine on premesis. There is no smoking and reservations are not taken. Available for corporate and private catering.

Small and Good

by RGRoper

This small, intimate restaurant is locally owned and operated. If you want to experience "cookie cutter" food and service, then go to a chain. I love the sandwiches, soups and salads. Quaint building and fun place to eat. There is no 10-minute lunch so don't expect it. Love the place and go often.

Worst Sandwich I Have Ever Had

by rover2002

I had only heard good things about Side Street so I decided to try it for lunch today. Not only was the person ringing people up very rude and not hospitable but the food was awful.

I ordered one of their sandwiches and there was so much sauce, mayo, and cole slaw that by the time I attempted to eat the sandwich the bread was soggy and the meat just fell out, dripping along the way.

It has been a few hours since I had a few bites of this sandwich and I still feel ill. I didn't see anything there that is worth trying a second time.

3 Year Old Menu Prices Online??

by msquare911

I placed a telephone take-out order for 8 lunches based on the printable menu found on Side Street's web-site. I calculated what I thought would be the total due from each co-worker and headed to the restaurant with just enough to cover the bill. After being rung up by a clerk who looked uninterested I discovered I was $6 short. I was then told by another employee that if I used the online menu that the prices were wrong and that "they" have not been able to update the menu for the past 3 years. We then went back and forward over who was at fault them or me. How can you advertise out dated prices online but then put 100% of the blame on me a first time customer? The owner/manager came out and accepted the money I had but she too kept saying that I should not have gone by what was online. I won't be going back to Side Street any time soon.

  • Pros: Health serving sizes
  • Cons: So-so customer service

Cash only!

by tripodabbie

A recent visit to Side Street has made me not want to return; at check out the group in front of my did not realize they only accept cash or checks and when I got to check out with a $50 bill they didn't have change. How can you not have change if you only take cash?

Sandwiches are great, but lunch service is slow...do not expect to get back to work within an hour time frame.

For a $12 lunch I want to use my debit card please!

  • Pros: great dessets, good atmoshphere
  • Cons: cash or checks only,, a little pricy, slow service

Great sandwiches but...

by sqeekers

We have been here many times and the food has been good each time, but recently we experienced numerous fruit flies/nats at the table throughout the meal. It was very unpleasant. Not sure I want to risk going here again.

  • Pros: Food, price, quiet
