The Hideout

Love this place. Great atmosphere. Amazing staff. Drinks are reasonably priced.
A little smokey.
If you like darts, come on by!!! Tons of people to play with.
If you can check out the females bathroom, check out the mirror!!!
Best shot: Washington apple with crown green apple.

Just left the «Martini Bar». Way better atmosphere. No pretense here, you get what you see. Darts, drinks and the Spurs game!

It’s a classic dive bar with (electronic) darts, good rock music, and a local customer base. The smoke is a bit hard to handle, hence the four stars. I caught it on a slow night, despite Monday Night Football, but still had a good time.

Not the place to be at 7:30pm. But I’m sure it gets better. Really close to my hotel, that’s why I am here. Cool bar tho

Definitely a neighborhood dive, hidden behind the Starbucks and La Quinta hotel. I actually forgot they still let people smoke in bars in GA (hadn’t been here in 4 years). If you don’t smoke and can tolerate walking out smelling like an ash tray they offer good drink specials, cheap beer (decent bottle selection), and have a few TVs if you are trying to catch a game.

Let’s start my review of the Hideout by saying I was in Augusta for work and staying at La Quinta (Spanish for «this is not the Ritz Carlton and the only reason you would ever stay here is if you are a crazy dog lady and brought your French Bulldog with you on a business trip»). When I checked into my room at Motel 6, err I mean La Quinta, I immediately noticed a bar outside my motel room and was major league sketched.
I met my Augusta friends for dinner and they laughed about my poor choice of motel, but one of them quickly chimed in that the Hideout was a fun dive bar and one of his friends worked there. Obviously the only logical thing to do was to continue the post-​dinner festivities at the Hideout.
Good news folks, the Hideout is awesome! It’s definitely a dive bar, but it’s way better than I thought it was going to be. It’s smokey as all get out and the walls are decorated with the likes of Harry & Lloyd, Bill Murray, and Elvis. They also have Keno and darts. We lost at Keno and I got hit on by a totally creepy dude whilst playing darts. Vodka tonics were strong, I left smelling like smoke, and the best part is I only had to walk 10 steps across the parking lot to my room, literally.
The Hideout isn’t the fanciest bar, but it’s a good time even for an out of towner on a Tuesday. If I ever wind up at La Quinta again, I will most definitely be back to this watering hole. Cheers!

Awesome little spot to relax and have a drink. Everybody from locals to people coming through the city. Convenient to I-​20 and Washington Rd. The bartenders are on top of it. Just the perfect bar to go to when looking for a low key night.
