Attention, Asian street food fans and craft beer lovers!
High Side in downtown Fairfax is a must-visit spot that combines incredible flavors with a great local atmosphere. Opened in 2018, High Side was born out of his love for craft beer and Taiwanese street food, offering a unique fusion right in the heart of our community.
At High Side, the beer selection is always changing, with so many different varieties rotating through. From fruity smoothie sours to hazy IPAs and classic lagers, there’s something for every taste.
And when it comes to food, expect mouthwatering street eats like Taiwanese popcorn chicken, garlic noodles, and crispy tornado fries. It’s the perfect place for a laid-back night with friends, or just to treat yourself to something fun and delicious.
High Side is also known for its strong ties to the community, especially through their annual Asian Festival each May. This event brings thousands of people together to celebrate Fairfax’s rich Asian heritage with food, music, and culture. In 2023, the festival attracted 26,000 visitors, showcasing 100+ vendors and food stalls. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you’ll want to add it to your calendar!
