What customers say

This Sidecar was just as enjoyable as its brother in Cedar falls. I enjoyed a delicious coffee there while I met with friends. Kind barista and a welcoming interior with lots of interesting art. I will add that my usual is their dark roast house coffee with a shot of espresso.

My wife made me try this Sidecar a couple of years ago. Now it's the ONLY place I buy beans. Highly recommend it. Especially if you're into fresh, light roast beans. Super fresh, and so flavorful. With multiple locations in the cedar valley to choose from, there's no reason to go anywhere else for coffee.

I’m not in coffee shops to often but after I visited this one I think I’ll be going to more. I’ll bring the review to you while I’m at it. Great atmosphere. Chargers at every table. I was extremely productive here and I’d definitely recommend it to others. I got a large Iced Dirty Chai Latte.

I came in before school one morning with my mom, we had a vanllia and mocha iced coffee they were very delicious and I had a #1 breakfast sandwich and it was so yummy. I will definitely be back here again. But next time I'll try the drive through!
