DC Side Street Garage has gained yet another loyal customer! The day before leaving the state after visiting family in the area, I got a flat tire. Drew offered such wonderful customer service, compassion, and efficiency to ensure our safety on the long drive back out of state. I don't know what we would have done had it not been for his willingness to help and understanding.
If you're in need of auto repairs look no further! Thank you so much again!!
I and my family members have used many repair facilities over the years and Side Street is the most professional and honest shop we have dealt with. The Chelsea community is blessed to have Side Street doing business here.
my go-to mechanic. always honest, helpful, and reasonably priced. not to mention, it's locally-owned too. the owner is a really great guy who has helped me learn a lot more about my vehicle!! i would definitely recommend them :-)
-5 if that was an option! These guys are terrible!!! They may be great at the jobs they like to do or are easy and fast money or if they think they can pull a fast one for some quick easy cash. If you are looking for a shop to treat you right, take good care of you and that you can trust, keep looking. NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL!
Great, Great service if you are in the region go see Drew and Chris and let them show you what real service is all about. They were able to help me out of a bind and did so without hesitation! HIGHLY Highly recommend 10 out of 10!
I've taken my car to Drew and Chris at their shop since they opened in February 2020. I have a 2007 Honda Accord that has 445,000 miles on it. The car is 18 years old. It works fine. They take care of it in an exceptional, careful, thrifty and super wise way; they know everything there is to know about my car, and I bet every car, and they perform an exceptional, amazing job. I cannot recommend them enough. I have never been overcharged by them or have them promise me something that did not work out. To the contrary, on several times, they've told me if inexpensive ways to keep the car going safely and to keep it in operation. I trust them 1000% and I've known them to be great mechanics, great people in the community, and great friends. I have recommended him to my best friend, and he has also been happy. They get new business by word of mouth, because they are reliable, trustworthy, fair, and really good. They don't need to advertise. So please go to them. And also recommended them to other people -- they are the best.
Excellent service and turnaround. They were able to get my subaru in within a week of calling. Dropped it off as soon as they opened and picked it up same day after having all 4 brakes and pads replaced. Would highly recommended!
This place was awesome and the owner was very helpful. We had a stem leak on my tire. Called down he said drive it down and I will fix it. 10 mins later we were out the door. Amazing service and friendly would recommend them to anyone with a car problem.
This seems to be the go-to spot. Our first time needing auto work after moving to Chelsea several years ago, and we needed some brake work done on our Subaru. The whole process was very stress-free. Chris and the fellas were all incredibly friendly, they explained things clearly and got the job done in a timely manner; going the extra-mile to make sure everything was in tip-top shape. Don't overthink it: give the boys your business.
What a fantastic group of hard working, honest guys! I have used Side Street many times over the years. They do a fantastic job and go above and beyond to take care of their customers. We recommend them to any who is looking to get some work done on their vehicle.
Today, I came in with a surprise flat tire in the parking lot next door, they came out in the pouring rain, got enough air in it to take it to the garage and had my tire all patched up, in and out in about 20 minutes.
The crew at Side Street are the best. I feel very comfortable taking my vehicle’s service needs to people who know what they’re doing and do it well. I’ll be using Side Street for a long time.
DC Side Street Garage is the best in our experience. We have been taking our vehicles there for[nearly]ever, and have always been pleased with the honest, accurate, thorough, fair service, pricing, and opinions. Never a bad experience; always a great experience.
All I can say is wow!! We are in from Alabama and I noticed this morning my truck was acting up, I came across this shop and these guys were beyond helpful. I pulled up and despite the fact that they had a lot full of cars to work on, they looked at my truck for about 20-30 minutes right on the spot. It was right at lunch time and they were eating but they dropped everything to help me. Thank you to the guys that own this shop. So glad there are some “good ole boys” out here that are willing to help a stranger.
Chris has worked on my car numerous times and is great! Dunning suburu quoted me $2,700 for axil work and rotor replacement. Sidestreet did it for $1200! Can’t recommend these guys enough
You will not find a more honest shop around. Chris, Drew and the team at Side Street Garage are efficient and do great work. I highly recommend using them the next time you need service work done on your vehicle.
Chris and Drew and the team at Side Street Garage have always been an absolute pleasure to work with. We drive an old car, so a trusted mechanic is essential to keep us on the move. Chris and Drew are honest, responsive, and transparent, often going above and beyond to help us out in a pinch. I highly recommend Side Street Garage to anyone looking for friendly, skilled mechanics at a local repair shop in the Chelsea area.
Took my truck in with broken AC and in need of brakes. First time, they fixed the AC and it lasted 20 min before breaking again. By the time I got home from picking up the truck, one of the brakes was sticking. Took it back for them to fix it a 2nd time. Picked it up and the parking brake was squealing. Had to wait while they fixed this. After picking it up, the AC lasted 1 hour before failing and a different brake is sticking. Clearly, they don't know what they're doing.
Chris is awesome! Always professional and explains things in a clear straightforward manner. Prices are very reasonable and we are so happy we came back to Side Street Garage :-)!!! Thank you Chris and team!
My car needed a tune up badly and after Chris and Drew finished their magic, my car runs like a charm! I've used them a several times and they've always provided great quality work and are friendly and knowledgeable. live in New York but always wait to have Chris and Drew work on my car when I'm home for a visit. (PS- I will fund any franchise expansion into New York!)
Needed brakes. It's hard to stop without them.
Mine were nearing needing a new brake job but when a pad rolled off and left it metal to metal I nursed it to Drew and his Crew.
I had not known Drew other than a preliminary phone call to get a price and ask about availability on his schedule. When I did meet him I found a guy who was quite knowledgeable, very personable, and fair in his pricing.
Since visiting him and having the job done I have talked to more than a few people who also gave opinion that they would not hesitate to go back.
Others who had not heard of Side Street Garage, I hope my satisfaction and comments were enough to urge them to give Side Street a try. They are busy, but what good mechanic isn't?
I felt comfortable enough with his work to drive to Laredo Tx... and since then I've put another five thousand miles on that brake job.
I will be bringing my truck back to Side Street, for sure.
Thanks Drew and Crew!

I went to Chelsea to take a used truck for a test drive. I called Chris this morning and he got me set up with an appointment the very same day. My appointment was at 3:00 and by 3:30 I was being spoken to about the truck’s problems. He was extremely honest and concise about the issues with the truck. He literally saved me thousands of dollars due to his inspection. He recommended not purchasing the vehicle and I agreed with him. Go here for any and all of your automotive needs. Chris and his team will take care of you the way any great business should.
These guys are honest and professional. I work in a service department and know what stand up service looks like and these guys are it. Even though they weren't able to do the repairs needed, being that my car has a rare motor that no one can find parts for, they were upfront and honest and we're willing to go above and beyond to help where they could. Would strongly recommend this shop. Drew is the man.
Let me start off by saying how nerve racking having to go to an auto mechanic can be. Well not here. I can't say enough about how great my numerous experiences have been here. Chris and his business partner are unbelievably helpful, trustworthy, honest, and fair. We have had everything from engine swap to brakes, wheel bearings, front end parts, and power steering pumps worked on here and the quality of work has been phenomenal. Everything they have fixed we have had no future problems with. Our family wants to thank you guys from the bottom of our heart for all the help and work you have provided. I would travel across the state to have any work I need done from here. THANK YOU!
We've been using Side Street Garage for at least 20 years and couldn't be more pleased with their service. Their prices are fair, they do high quality work, they are trustworthy and they are always a pleasure to deal with (even when they have to send me somewhere else for a specialty problem). Highly recommended!
Such nice courteous people who know their craft. I took in my premium electric vehicle at this place and felt comforted to hear that they frequently work on R8, Lexus and Ferraris amongst other vehicles. The guys were very nice and they did the job really well. I was there just for a tire fix but seeing the thorough nature of their job and overall treatment I'll be returning to them for anything that should come up. Good people and good work.
