Side Bar earns its name honestly โ it sits just off the casino floor at MGM Grand, the kind of low-key spot regulars mention almost in passing, like a place they ducked into once and kept coming back to.
This isn’t a bar chasing foot traffic off the Strip โ it’s a quiet pull-off from the noise of the tables, the kind of place a local mentions to another local rather than something MGM markets hard. That’s the appeal: a spot to cool down between hands or slip away from a crowd without leaving the building. Worth remembering the next time the main floor feels like too much and you just want a drink without the production.
Side Bar sits off the casino floor at MGM Grand. Happy Hours open 11 PMย – 2 AM. Hours and specials at casino bars can change without much notice, so itโs worth asking the bartender directly whatโs currently running before you order.
