    Wife and I had a similar experience as Chariot.
    We also ordered the fish & chips, BIG MISTAKE.
    The fish and the fish better was not cooked all the way. The chips, really french fries was served as WHITE me and as limply as my old, o-ten. We ordered Mayo on the side to dip the fries in. When we inquired as to why it was taking so long we were told that they had to send the cook to Hipper Mart to get the MAYO. When this sorry excuse of a dinner was served, it came with sides Salad dressing, not MAYO. Once I tasted the Salad dressing I spit it out. The cook showed me the jar of MAYO he had just got at Hipper Mart. The label on the jar clearly said "SALAD DRESSING"! We got up and walked out. That has to be the worst restaurant meal we had ever ordered. I do not think it is necessary to say that we will never be back to Sideways.
    Went across the street to Flip Flops and had a well prepared tasty dinner.

    Visited Sideways bar last night. Must be well known to many of you here, but first time we've ventured inside since arrival.

    The music was good and loud, the food good, the clientele friendly and the owners just right, genuinely welcoming and accommodating. Nice place; nice people; good facilities; good food; good music.....what more could you want?

    Enjoyed the evening and will definitely be back there.

    Visited Sideways for the first time about 2 weeks ago about 2pm.
    Incredibly cold beer! Friendly staff n nice environment.
    Wife ordered pulled beef sandwich n I had fish n chips. Hate to say it, but it was the worst "fish-n-chips" I've ever had including frozen TV dinners! Wife's pulled beef was likewise a disappointment! Very sweet n flavorless except for ketchup?
    Except for a cold beer, will probably never stop there again!
    Bamboo Bob's a few kms further is far superior!

    No news Jack.
    My wife originally showed me it on facebook but she says the post has been taken down so she has a theory that a VIP maybe involved :hide:

    If parking a car there is difficult on the highway. Best to park somewhere around Hypermart and walk down - 2 minutes. No problem for a bike.
