SideBar, the hip bar and restaurant at 24 South King Street in Leesburg, has added a new feature for the morning folk: a lovely coffee shop with a walk-up window on the street.

Today is the grand opening for the new addition and early morning java seekers are already turning out. Besides coffee, SideBar has a variety of morning pastries and breakfast items.

The new shop is immediately adjacent to the bar/restaurant side. They are connected by an alley way and share a courtyard, patio and parking lot out back.

They have live music this morning and the grand opening celebration with daily specials runs through September 30.
