The editorial take
The cocktail side carries Hideout 125: twelve named drinks, from a Sazerac and a Manhattan to martinis like Cool as a Cucumber and Gin Bloom, priced $13–$20. The bourbon bottle list is where the program gets serious, with allocated and cask-strength expressions running $170–$1,500. Beer leans on local and regional drafts, and there is a dedicated mocktail alongside a full soda and water list.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Old Fashioned, built on rye with Aperol, Maraschino, orange, and Angostura bitters at $20, or the Sazerac with rye, gomme, absinthe, and Peychaud's at $13. If bourbon is the draw, the bottle list includes Elijah Craig 15 YR and 18 YR, Henry McKenna, and Angels Envy Cask Strength.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Drinkers who want a broad cocktail list and a deep bourbon bottle selection in the same room. The $8 mocktail, sodas, and kids beverages make it workable for mixed groups where not everyone is drinking.
- When should I go?
- Sunday brunch is worth noting for the espresso martini special price. Otherwise the drinks list runs across cocktails, beer, wine, spirits, martinis, cans and bottles, draft beer, and sodas throughout service.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails run $13–$20, with the Old Fashioned at the top and the Sazerac and Hideout Mule at $13. Draft beers are $7–$8 and a beer flight is $8. Bourbon bottles range from $170 for Henry McKenna to $1,500 for Boss Hog XII.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The bourbon bottle list separates it: allocated and cask-strength expressions including Boss Hog XII, Angels Envy Cask Strength, Whistle Pig Piggy Bank Rye, and High West The Prisoner's Share, priced $170–$1,500. The twelve-drink cocktail list with a full martini section is the other anchor.
