Side Affects Bar & Grill | Our Story
Fun and flavor await on Main Street
Side Affects Bar & Grill landed on Main Street in Lithonia, Georgia with one mission: bold bites, vibrant cocktails, and a vibe that keeps you coming back. This is Lithonia's lively neighborhood spot — and yeah, the side affects are very good.
The bar and the drinks
From the Pineapple Madness to a full mocktail lineup, every glass at Side Affects is built to impress — cocktails and zero-proof options side by side, because the fun is for everyone. Pull up a stool and let the bar work its magic.
The food
Hot, fresh, and affordable — the kitchen delivers sweet chili wings, blackened fish, steak and eggs, burgers, and more with every plate landing pretty and full of flavor. Guests call it a hidden gem, and honestly, they're right.
The stage
Blue tufted booths, marble tables, VIP areas, and a large stage with premium lighting and sound — Side Affects was built to host a moment. Open mic nights, Night Fest, and special events keep the energy alive all week long.
The people
Regulars rave about the staff — especially YaYa at the bar — and industry insiders call the vibe "genuinely friendly." Owner Kali and the whole crew treat every guest like family, and that's the real side affect worth catching.
