Great bartender, fantastic drink and really interesting atmosphere. Feels like you're hanging out at your friends house in the 90s or something. 10/10 would go back to have another fun and delicious cocktail here👍

Am I ever going to fall out of love with Farside? Very, very doubtful as long as it stays like this! This is still my #1 bar to go to and I'm just really happy it exists.

Great ambience, loved the wallpaper and props all over the bar. Ridiculously cheap cocktails and friendly bar staff. Definitely will be going back again
great bar in the neighborhood with music, vcr movies playing in the back, laidback vibes and good drinks. You go to the bar to order and claim a table/seat for yourself. Drinks were balanced and well priced.

There are friendly bartenders and staff that will take care of you, always having pitchers of water on the bar. VCR movies being projected on …
Met with friends last week, had an awesome time. Great beer and good vibes. Definitely recommend:)

Far for us to go, but will definitely be a place to go next time we’re in the east end ! Dj was amazing, service was attentive. We got served by a lady with long brown hair (I should have got her name) and she was amazing. She gave us some olives because I was so hungry after our night. …
