We arrived a little before 5pm on a Friday night hoping to sit on the patio. The patio was closed with all the tables reserved for the band later in the evening. We were also told they had a limited "event menu". After we got past those two big disappointments we had a good dinner seated inside. My husband ordered the steak sandwich with a side of chili. I ordered the Hangout fried chicken wrap with krack fries. Food was great. The wrap had a spicy kick without being too overwhelming. An inside band started at 5pm. This place is very spacious and has a fun country yard feel. Parking lot fills up fast. However, they have a couple of overflow lots across the street and down High Ridge Blvd a ways. read more

Food is always the best! They have a new menu and awesome lunch specials! Service has always been solid but with recent management changes and new day girls the place is top notch! They have a great patio space for lunch, bands or to make it a destination to drive out too! Our favorite thing on the menu is voodoo shrimp! read more

Johnny's Hideout - Voodoo shrimp now permanently on the menu!!! - Beer Bar Near Me - High Ridge, Missouri

Went back again for lunch and had a good Buffalo chicken sandwich and fries. Service from Brandy the bartender was great. On Mondays wings are half off! Alas, when I went it wasn't a Monday and I wasn't going to spend $24 for 12 wings so we had fried pickles. They were a little overcooked but not terrible. read more

Johnny's Hideout - Buffalo Chicken Sandwich - Beer Bar Near Me - High Ridge, Missouri

The bartender was so stoned she asked me about my food order 3 times and I didn't order food. I asked her if I did something wrong because she waited on 3 other customers before asking me if I wanted something to drink. I've really never had a good experience here. read more

Service is amazing, bands are great, the Sunset Patio is one of the best in the STL area. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

I came out to Johnny's Hideout last weekend with a group specifically to see the live music by John Shanahan. One of my group called ahead and was able to reserve us 2 tables for 20 people. I thought this was a bar, but was pleasantly surprised to find when I got there it's a restaurant bar and their menu shows it. Very heavy cajun inspiration on the menu which I was excited about. I hadn't really planned to eat a lot but ended up ordering he cajun chicken sandwich with Krack fries. Both were really good. I'm not really sure what the "krack" fry is about. I asked the waitress and see said it's a seasoned fry but my fries didn't look or taste seasoned...they were still good though so I wasn't too worried about it. I also tasted the cajun shrimp that someone else ordered - VERY good. The live music was very cool. It was set up inside and acoustic so good volume and not overwhelming. The setup here is pretty big - there's a front outdoor area, the inside is seperated into bar on the right and restuarant on the left and I saw another outside area with a movie type screen and chairs out back (it was dark). The musician said when the weather is warmer they sometimes do the live music outside. I'd definitely come back for that. Our waitress was good keeping up with our party, answering questions, keeping my water filled - this is very important to me when I'm the only non-drinker, I frequently get forgotten. The food was slow... not a little slow, VERY slow... took over 40 minutes after we ordered our food. To be fair, the waitress let us know they were short a person in the kitchen and food was taking longer than normal. Also I came prepared to spend 3 hours watching the live music so I wasn't too worried about it. But this is good to know if you are in a hurry. Overall this has to be the coolest place in this general area which is fairly rural. It's not much a drive from STL county. I'd love to come back in warmer weather and eat on the patio. read more

Good food and great sights as they clearly hire based on looks for female bartenders. This is the spot for the St. Louis bike nights in Wednesdays! The major hang ups here are their parking sucks and is way too small for the amount of patrons they attract. Also the roads leading in and out of the area are incredibly poor and frequently have accidents on them where patrons get seriously hurt or die due to steep cliffs, blind turns, and no traffic control. read more

I give them a chance about every 6 months since it's so close to the house and it's easy. Every time I call in a to go order. Every time they get it wrong. They tell me 25 mins and it will be done. 25 mins later I'm sitting at the bar waiting another 10 for my food. Every bartender I have ever had take my order over the phone has had me repeat multiple times and somehow it's still wrong. Food tastes great, however it still can't make up for the service. read more

Damn great dive-y bar with some serious bar foods (burgers, wings). Hot, spicy food ... good size portions - great value! Fast service. Clean, well-lit. Friendly staff. Mutliple tv's and slots. Separate dining and bar areas. Huge indoor/outdoor location. Private parking lots. Pinball !! Only one machine, but pinball !! Did I mention that I love pinball? read more

First visit. Nice people. Friendly customers. Good food. Bob and Ashley both very nice and attentive. Overall something to repeat.

Cool place to stop in for cold beer and good food! They have concerts, events, and bike night every week. There is a huge outdoor area with cool views and multiple outdoor bars. It's a good time! read more

We were out riding on the bike (motorcycle) when we passed this little gem. Johnny's Hideout is an awesome spot for bikers. They have a covered outdoor seating area. The service is friendly and prompt! We ordered some fries and they were absolutely perfect!! They were hot, crispy, and perfect amount of salt. We will stop by again on future rides!! read more

Johnny's Hideout - Outside seating is the best! - Beer Bar Near Me - High Ridge, Missouri

Tried Johnny's for the first time. Server Brianna was very nice and even made my wife's salad herself. Food was fresh and hot. Wings were crispy and huge...I don't think I would do the garlic Parmesan sauce again but the Carolina was really good. BBQ Cajun shrimp was cooked well and enough spice without being too spicy. Place would be a good spot to catch up with friends. Will come back and try some other menus items and different wing sauces. read more

CHOOSE SOMEPLACE ELSE! Sad to say that this place is NOTHING like the previous owners Iron Barley. With all the hype, I was expecting a good, no nonsense, barbecue/casual restaurant and bar. It is nothing more than a mediocre restaurant with a few gimmicks. Bike night, wet tshirts. Plenty of other bars that have good food, cold beer and event nights. Don't waste your time here. It's not worth it unless you want to go see it for yourself. Wet tshirt night has drunk girls making out but so does Madri Gras and at least there it's more entertaining. Incredibly disappointed at the waste this place is now. Wishing I could give 0 stars. AVOID!!!! read more

Food was great! Nice little bar and grill that is a little off the beaten path. You should try it. read more

Johnny's Hideout - Chicken and burgers - Beer Bar Near Me - High Ridge, Missouri

This is the second time in two weeks I have tried to come here and eat on the patio. Both times I went inside to be seated on the patio, I did not seat myself. First time we waited 15 minutes and were about to leave when a server asked if anyone had helped us. We said no, we have been waiting for 15 mins and she said she was sorry and would send our sever out to help us. I believe she did that, but another 7 minutes went by and still no one came out to help us. Second time (tonight) same thing, the hostess sat us out there with menus, waited 10 minutes and no one came. Never even got drinks. Very sad, do not waste your time coming here. Nothing like the old place. read more

Johnny's Hideout - the inside of a restaurant - Beer Bar Near Me - High Ridge, Missouri

Here on a Saturday afternoon, no one else in the place. My and I both ordered a blt. The waitress had so many piercings in her face and black eyeshadow it was off-putting I must say. Waited 38 minutes for these sandwiches and fries. While the fries were just okay the bacon was badly burnt. We were actually afraid to say anything to this waitress. Place is definitely sketchy looking. read more

Always a great time and has the best outside patio around! Food is always great and the wings are amazing! read more

Fantastic garlic parm chicken wings! I asked waitress if they were "meaty". Boy were they ever!! I ordered 6. More than enough. The cheese wedges were also delish. Lovely outdoor patio. Our waitress, Hannah, also gets 5 stars. We will be back. read more

We are so glad this place opened up so close to home. The food is amazing, the atmosphere and the bands are great. The outdoor patio is perfect and the staff is great. ....We love bike night every Wednesday night. We will keep going. .............................. read more

This is the first time we have been to Johnny's Hideout and I'm glad we went. The atmosphere was great. We spent the whole evening on the Sunset Patio and it did provide the most beautiful sunset. The food was really good too. I got a burger and fries a friend got the wings and the steak tips on potatoes. What a treat!!! The wings were the exception though. Now I know why they are famous for them!! We went to see the band that was playing and they were fantastic. They are destined for Nashville. The Bobby Ford Band!! The service was quick and efficient and very friendly. Loved the whole experience. read more

Rude staff, and mediocre food. Countless complaints against this place, and all of them well founded

Excellent! Foods fantastic!! We walked in behind a group of 30 and another 22 and still got piping hot food fast! This place has had a bunch of names but the present owners have taken it to another level. We had a steak sandwich and it was great and a buffalo chicken sandwich that was so big I couldn't finish it. read more

One, count them one, server for the entire place. She, was absolutely amazing and running her tail off in an obviously understaffed situation. But how the heck does this absolute dumpster fire of a kitchen garner a four plus star review?! The food, what's still available from their totally gutted menu posted online, is down to bar burgers and wraps. Now occasionally I'm in the mood for a burger, but two sandwiches, one with fries and one with mac and cheese,two chicken tender meals with mac and cheese, three sodas and a glass of wine, there's no way that was close to $94 worth of food. Save your time and eat better at Applebee's than at this place. read more

Horrible food, bad service. Owner treats others like dirt. Will never be going here again!

Had a horrible experience here with the way I was treated by every staff member I encountered, as well as the owner or whoever was responding to complaints. Never once did they try to resolve my complaint nor make it right. Pretty much told me to get over it in a private message. Food was so/so, definitely nowhere near good enough to override their horrible customer service. Will never give our business to them again, too many other amazing establishments. They are a joke. read more

It may be a good place to drink. But it's nothing special for dinner. Slow kitchen service. Sloppily made food. Forgettable gumbo.

First time here. Sat at the bar and ordered shrimp. Been an hour. Bartender swears it's coming but I worked in many restaurants and I get it but this was a little ridiculous. Bartenders seemed more concerned with doing shots. read more

We were hooked when they set down the wings, smelled great, tasted even better. We eat a lot of wings and these are in the top 10 for sure. Will bump that up if they are as good next visit. Cajun burger was delicious and service was fantastic. Great atmosphere and you can tell they take pride in their food and business. Great find, thank you! read more

Very much enjoyed lunch here! The Voodoo shrimp was so delicious that I wished I had ordered it for my entree instead of sharing it as an appetizer. The fried cheese was just okay. It wasn't what you usually expect. It was soft but not real melty. It tasted fine, but I probably wouldn't order it again. But I DEFINITELY want more Voodoo shrimp!!! read more

Food was good. Service was quick and waitress was friendly! We will definitely visit again!

Good food good atmosphere. When they have a live band it's in a wonderful setting. Some of the best waitresses around.

This place is good for beer. However, I don't recommend the food. We stopped by Sunday and ordered a hamburger with fries and an order of chicken strips. The hamburger was the only thing edible. The chicken was so overdone I couldn't chew it, and the fries were cold and greasy to the point that you could squeeze the grease out between the fingers. We asked our waitress about them, and she informed us that is how they are all the time. We will not be choosing the place read more

Gumbo was excellent. Shredded chicken sandwich excellent. Fries good. Riblets not what I was expecting. Canned beer was cold.. read more

Underrated bar for the area. Great tv for sports and good quality food for the area. Cool view sunset

I've tried this place 3 times now. Gave some slack for poor service when they first opened for crap service. Tried again and didn't care for the food. Tried again today and was completely ignored by the bartender. Sat at an almost empty bar for over 15 mins without acknowledgement before getting up and walking out. Wouldn't recommend this place to my enemies. Sucks read more

Horrible place. Owner is a jerk. Terrible service. Tried giving it a few tries. Never again!!

Great outdoor area with nice views. Often they have live music. Ate inside, food was good. Service was rough.
