Love The Hideaway. None of those fancy guns that dispense tonic water, club soda, etc. We get 2litre bottles. And I am more than okay with this. They pour them heavy, charge them light, and serve with a smile. You must know ahead of time. This is purely a drinking establishment. I've seen drunken hookups, fisticuffs, and injuries occur here. What makes this place special to me personally is the purity in it. A very mixed crowd, with a very mixed selection of music from the jukebox, but we're all here for the same reason. We want to get drunk and enjoy ourselves. Period. End-o-story. I don't think I've ever not surpassed my drinking limit here, at least just a little bit. Not much in the area of atmosphere or flair, but damnit, it's always a good time.
Not for the weekend warrior, or the type that goes to "da cluuub."
This is some Bukowski shit going on here. And I love it.
And I have to retract my previous statement about the restrooms and general state of cleanliness here. I was just there two nights ago and they now have a health code grade of "A"
Restrooms are totally redone and even smell slightly pleasant, opposed to downright intolerable in the past. The fact that they've made the effort and investment to clean up a bit makes me enjoy the place even more. By the way, the fuzz were posted up in the back parking lot trying to catch some drunk drivers. So the owner, Larry I believe is his name, kept the place open longer to allow for his customers to sober up a bit. Thanks Waylon Jennings!
I wanna catch the wednesday night jam session.
