Live music. Cold drinks. Great company.

In whitewater rafting, “High Side!” is a call to action. A shift in weight that keeps the boat from tipping. At High Side Bar & Grill, it’s a way of life. We’re the spot you lean into when the week’s been long, the work’s piled up, or you’re just craving something good and real. Tucked along the Arkansas River in downtown Salida, High Side! is where food, music, and community flow together.

We serve up great food, local drafts and cocktails done right, and the kind of happy hours that make any day better. Catch live music every Friday and Saturday at 7PM and Sundays at 2PM with no cover and no bad vibes, or settle in for the game with the Sunday Ticket and the best TVs in town.

Move your weight to the High Side. This is where you stay upright. This is where the fun’s at.
