Directions To Sidebar In Downtown Atlanta

Sidebar can be a little hard to find if you’re not a local. We are located at 79 Poplar St NW in Downtown Atlanta, a short walk from the Tabernacle, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, State Farm Arena, the Masquerade, and Georgia World Congress Center. Look for the “Sidebar” sign right around the corner from the Georgia State University School Of Music and Rialto Center for the Arts building at the corner of Poplar and Forsyth. There are many parking garages and ample parking available near Sidebar and all over Downtown, but we strongly suggest you don’t drive yourself at all if you intend to drink. Sidebar is a short walk from many of Downtown’s hotels and venues and is a convenient location to use services like Uber, Lyft, Taxi, and MARTA, all of which we strongly recommend.

Much of the street parking in the area is not metered after 7pm. Some of the most convenient paid parking lots include:

103 Luckie St NW
90 Forsyth St NW
100 Luckie St NW
