The HideAway

My GF, sister, her boyfriend, and I came here to watch Block 16 perform and we had an absolute BLAST. Not only was the music amazing (a WIDE variety of music that got everyone up and dancing or head banging at one point during the night), but the service was beyond what I expected for a dive bar. Our bartender — Penny, I believe — was the most amazing bartender I’ve ever encountered. She let my GF try Crown Royal Apple and an IPA before letting her decide what she wanted. When we asked if the bar sold cigarettes rather than having to buy them out of the machine (we didn’t have cash), she gave us her pack instead. Oh and they serve Micheladas, which is this Mexican girl’s dream!
The waitress from our table was so much fun. She would come serve us, go dance across the dance floor and hit the next table. And she was an older woman, which made it even more fun. She took really good care of us. Truly, we enjoyed our time. I’m hoping that Block 16 will perform there more.
They also offer line-​dancing classes.

We first came here to support karaōke on Wednesday nights. Our first visit the staff was not very friendly and their spiral fries were cold, greasy and not good at all. We’ve been back a couple of times and our visit last night was by far the worst ever. I ordered mozzarella cheese sticks but they only had two sticks out of an order of five. They were supposed to make them for me at no charge, but I never got them. They are permanently closing their kitchen and it’s probably a good idea because the cook isn’t very good and neither is the food. I ordered a medium cooked cheeseburger and it came out well-​done. After I sent it back, it came back out medium, but without the cheese! The cook brought me some after my husband went to the kitchen and told him… and they still charged us full price for my meal! I was drinking sprite but the bartender refilled my drink with water… I guess that was partly my fault because all I heard her say was «would you like a refill.» The staff was very friendly last night for the first time since we’ve gone there, but I guess that’s because just about anything that could go wrong did. The bartender gave me a shot for free because they felt bad, and that was very nice of them. The karaōke dj had become very unfriendly, I guess because we don’t follow her around to all of her karaōke nights, and she pushed me way back in the rotation after her regulars. She was the main reason that we continued to make the trek from Sahara/​215 to Rancho/​Cheyenne to come here. She has one of the best song selections in town. But last night just sealed it. we won’t be back… at least not for karaōke!

The Hideaway has re opened under new ownership. The space is huge and not dingy, that is a huge plus. They have a spot for live bands on the weekends. The service was great, the food was very good, the wings are fantastic, and I can’t believe I’m about to say this, the spaghetti was delicious (for those of you that don’t know, I am normally not a pasta fan, thus the disbelief, but enough about me, now back to the review) It is a bit off the beaten path (thus the name) but worth a trip out there to have a relaxing evening with friends in a non DB setting.
