Great place for family and friends to gather, the food is great and the staff are excellent! Relaxed and comfortable place no matter the occasion! read more

The food was very good! I never heard of this place until my daughter told me about it. I had the sampler which was a good choice to taste everything. I will definitely recommend this location. read more

The Hideaway is truly a hidden gem down a country lane in Odenton, Maryland. I had catfish dusted in cornmeal which was light and airy. The fries were amazing - thick and liberally sprinkled with spices. Our server, Skylar, was excellent. The food was on the table in less than 20 minutes! read more

I give The Hideaway 5 stars because of the fact that those dang Award Winning Wings (dry hot) are a BANGER every SINGLE time. They are ALWAYS so hot and seasoned to perfection! The ONLY complaint I have is that you can't do an all-flats/all-drumettes order. Otherwise, I will come here exclusively for the wings. Now, I have tried other things here, and lots of them are also delicious, such as the hush puppies, the jalapeno brisket rolls, and the crabby fries. The one thing I would not order again is the mac and cheese. I know it's a preference thing; I just don't like the style of their mac and cheese, and if you know, you know! The staff is always awesome, very accommodating, especially because this place is really popular with military, so more often than not they are dealing with large parties. The place is actually quite large also, so they are able to host multiple large parties at once as well as smaller groups throughout the restaurant. The parking can be a mess if you go at a busy time, but if you don't, the lot has plenty of spots and goes all around the building. read more

Recently, they have changed how they cook the brisket and......IT'S AMAZING! Thick portions of the juiciest meat literally just fall gently apart in your hands. You don't have to tell them what cut of meat you want, it's all tender...all the time. Hideaway, whatever you did, whoever you hired, whoever you didn't hire, whatever....just keep doing it, PLEASE!

The service was excellent. They also had karaoke the night that we were there. And the managers and everything were really nice.I felt like they went above and beyond. But I gave three stars because I was not crazy about the food. However, their selection of barbecue sauce was amazing, and I really enjoyed them! read more

My coworkers raved about this place and I didn't think it was possible to live up to the hype but the Hideaway did just that! Took the drive from DC and the name is so fitting. This place is tucked away in the back of nowhere. Surprised me when we pulled up but it was busy. There are about three seating areas. One outside, a bar area and a family area. Finding the main entrance was a little challenging as there are three or four doors but I ultimately found the hostess booth. We were quickly seated and Katy C. was our waitress. She was OUTSTANDING and a JOY all night. Ask for her if she is there. My wife and I ended up ordering appetizers. I ordered the Award Winning Wings (Old Bay), and my wife ordered the Crabby Fries as well as the Crusty Georgia Cornbread. The wings are smoked and the meat just fell off the bone. They were nicely seasoned with old bay and were delicious. You get 8. The crabby fries were more than an appetizer. The crab meat is all throughout the fries and there is a good amount. The fries are crispy and the crab really fills right in. This is definitely a shareable dish. The cornbread is probably the best I've ever had. Amazingly buttered, great temperature, MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH. This was so good we ordered two to take home. The fries and wings were enough but I ordered my entree before finishing the appetizers. For my entree I ordered the Hideaway Sampler with a side of collard greens and Brussels sprouts. Be mindful that the Brussels sprouts as a side is an extra $2. I didn't know but would have still gotten them. The ribs were ok. Nothing special. The regular smoked wings are good as well but give me the old bay wings all day. The brisket was GREAT! Nice and tender just how you'd expect. The pulled pork was ok. Once you add some sauce it will do the job. Overall my experience here was GREAT! I'll definitely be going back. Keep up the good work and give Katy a raise. I ended up catching a cramp at the table and she could tell I was in distress. She checked on me to make sure I was ok as my wife was in the bathroom. She made sure I was fine before leaving. Top tier service. Thank You Again! read more

Food was great! We ordered Wings. Beet salad. Traditional Baked Potato & pulled pork entree. Good cold beer. Service was horrible!! Alexa I think? We sat at the bar. She seemed annoyed to have customers! Seemed put out if you asked for necessary items... like missing appetizer? & silverware & sour cream for dry baked potato. I'd request not to have her if we ever go again. She made it very uncomfortable like we were bugging her just by being there...? Was a negative vibe from beginning to end! But great food! read more

3.29.24 Why do they call it the Hideaway? Because it's off a beaten path in an industrial area. Thank goodness for the invention of the gps. Hubby and I came on a Friday evening after our friend recently went here and recommended it. Hubby got the Smoked Fried Chicken with mac & cheese and baked beans. I got the Hideaway Sampler which came with 1/4 St. Louis ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and 2 naked wings. I got the potato salad and hush puppies as my sides. Hubby and I shared our entrees. The Smoked Fried Chicken was the winner! It had great flavor. For our favorite side, he liked the mac & cheese the best whereas my favorite was the hush puppies which came with honey butter. They have four bbq sauces including: bourbon molasses, Carolina, Knocked-Up, and Blackberry Chipotle. My favorite was the bourbon molasses. They should definitely sell the sauces. Some of the best I've ever had! Service was fast. We were in and out within 30 minutes. Our server was great initially when taking our order and bringing us our food, but we didn't see her for a while and had to flag her down for our check. Most likely, it got hectic as more patrons came in around peak dinner time. Parking lot was packed by the time we left around 6 pm. There is street parking on the main road. There is a bar and patio seating is also available. My hubby said their smoked fried chicken rivals with the chicken at Smokey Glen Farm in Gaithersburg. Definitely will be back for their delicious chicken! read more

Really a great spot take for wings.,other bbq is solid but order the wings and you can't miss . Great for happy hour

Wow just wow, the short ribs were off the fork tender, the sauce oh so succulent, will be coming again

I've been here twice now and both times it was great. It's a-bit busy during dinner time on the weekend so I'd come a bit earlier. The food was great, the wings is a must get. The ribs was also good. The chicken is hit or miss though, last time I got it was very juicy. The restaurant has plenty of seats. I'd definitely comeback again. read more

Wow. Let me tell you something. The Hideaway's food has me in a chokehold! The ribs, chicken, collard greens, potato salad and whatever else on the menu is so very well done! Bravo. I have ordered for delivery but look forward to visiting in person. The packaging of the food is well done. Great cooking--I'm hooked! read more

I returned for a karaoke date night, and so I got to see this place at its peak. As big as the restaurant is, it was full. It was absolutely full!! Karaoke was happening on one side, and then the rest of the restaurant was just busy with folks eating and drinking as usual. I would not recommend karaoke as a first date since it's hard to hear the other person, especially if they are soft spoken. But thankfully, she was as enthusiastic about karaoke as me, so it worked out. The blackberry chipotle wings were as great as the first time and I had to try the pot pie -- it just sounded too good! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the chicken and veggies all worked very well. I was obsessed with that crust too, mmph! The menu is pretty massive, so I need to work my way through the rest. Karaoke just made this experience so much better. This was one where we had to download an app -- thankfully I already had it. This is truly a neighborhood gem. read more

This is EXACTLY what I wanted in a hometown barbecue joint. And this is absolutely my favorite barbecue in the DMV!!! Our server was incredible and brought the best energy. The food was outstanding! Each entree was cooked to perfection. The homemade desserts were wonderful too. I highly recommend the hideaway sampler! The brisket is to die for. read more

The reviews are not wrong. The food and service were great. We also thought it was very reasonable. This place has a nice crowd, which you could tell many were regulars. We really enjoyed it. We shared appetizers, wings, ribs and crabby fries. All were great, but I love the wings and the ribs were very tender. read more

Hideaway is still one of my go to spots for family or even date night. There are two sections of the restaurant, if you prefer a quieter table, you can request to sit on the left side. The bar and karaoke night can be fun too, depending on what you are looking for. We stopped in for a late lunch, and super happy when we were seated right away. Our waiter Jason was so helpful and offered recommendations. He was patient as we needed more time to decide on the menu. Our appetizer came out timely and we enjoyed the crab dip. It was smoking and bubbly, so good. They have improved the outdoor seating, looking forward to nice spring weather when we might enjoy sitting outside. read more

I love the hideaway. It's my go to spot. Especially for take away orders. Especially if you have a trip to go on and don't want to cook. Let them do the cooking for you. The food is delicious. My favorite is the hideaway sampler. You get a variety of everything. I usually enjoy the sides as well. Everyone is very nice. You can order carryout. Or decide to dine in. They also have outdoor dining options available as well as sitting at the bar to enjoy the happy hour specials. Definitely plan on returning. Whenever in the area. read more

Tried again tonight. Overall B- A for ribs, very good. B for fried chicken, decent, nothing special. B- for sides, mashed potatoes, green beans, collard greens, green beans, decent, but ok overall. Crab soup C, very thick and starchy, not worth the price. Service was acceptable. read more

Nice location, but cleanliness of our table, and the temperature of the inside was uncomfortable. Just didn't feel like a place I would come back to. read more

Getting in was a little odd. Lots to doors on the outside so we ended up at the end of the restaurant. Service was good. Fast. Attentive. The food looked so good coming out. We got the pulled chicken sandwich and the French Dip. The pull chicken sandwich was OK. I mixed 2 of the table BBQ sauces together. But the bottom bun disintegrated 3 bites in and fell apart. So then I just at the meat. The French Dip bread was good. The meat was a bit lacking in the amount and au ju sauce needed more depth of flavor. The kids liked their meals. We would come back and try other things. read more

Unfortunately, my feelings about The Hideaway diminish each time I eat there. So, we went from five stars (forgot to write the review then) down to two stars (Yelp! reminded me). My food the last few visits was pretty dry or overcooked--the Brussels sprouts, especially. And the barbecue was only ok--also a bit dry. As much as I want to support local businesses, I don't see myself going back anytime soon. read more

The Hideaway - Fatty melt - burger between two grilled cheese sandwiches - Sports Bars Near Me - Odenton, Maryland

I am typically a fan of The Hideaway, but today's Jalapeño brisket stuffed potato was dry and lacking the unctuous deliciousness most of my other meals here are characterized by. I had to request sour cream so I wasn't eating half of the potato plain with no toppings. I will not order this again. Today's meal makes Mission Barbecue look like it would have been the better choice. read more

Being born and raised in the South, I know BBQ - trust that. Now I'm not saying it equates to the "Best BBQ I've Ever Had", but it is a runner up. Based on my recent couple of visits, the ribs were flavorful (even without sauce), tender, and moist, Mac & Cheese, collard greens, & pecan pie are alright to good. However, I'd pass on the green beans - theirs isn't the typical cooked down southern recipe rather a raw, healthy version. The customer service is consistently great. Restaurant interior has a homey atmosphere like that of a backwoods shack. Parking is limited given their popularity unless one goes on an unpopular day/ time. I have yet to try their bar. read more

Went here for Easter with my family, a pretty big group of about 15 people. We had a private room to ourselves, which was super nice. The online menu is different from the actual menu, so be prepared. Our waiter, I don't remember his name, but a young black male, is the sole reason for the 3 stars. He was great and very accompanying. He had 20 glasses of water already sat out for us all. He was very attentive and took the time to learn our names. We got multiple appetizers, such as wings, crab dip, fries, crabby fries and some crab soup. Everyone seemed pleased by the apps. The drinks were great and had a large selection. I got a cup of cream of crab soup, which was probably the best thing I had there. The crab dip / crabby fries was 90% filler, NOT much crab meat. Fries are thick and dry. I got the pulled pork platter, figured I couldn't go wrong with that. The pork was some of the worst I've ever had. It was extremely fatty and gritty. The mac and cheese was overcooked and very mushy and sticky. Brussel sprouts were AWFUL with the goat cheese, and had way too much bacon. Overall, not impressed with their food and barely ate any of it. The reason for the 3 stars is everyone else seemed happy, and mostly the SERVICE. Service was on top and the best. read more

Finally stopped by this place yesterday, got their main burger. It gave me food poisoning, it was the only thing I had up to that point. Wasn't even a tasty burger. Would avoid this spot read more

Server was friendly and helpful, the restaurant was a little loud for my liking and made it hard to hear people at my table talking, but overall a great experience here. I got the nachos were so delicious and a lot more filling than I expected. Other people at my table got the waffled pig and the French dip and all loved their food. Can't wait to be back to try other items on the menu! read more

First time having Hideaway, & it was not a disappointment! I had the Ribs & they were delicious - fell right off the bone! My partner had the Hideaway Burger & he had zero complaints. We ordered the Key Lime Pie for dessert & not a crumb was left. Absolutely will be back for takeout again. read more

Food is good. Service is absolutely TERRIBLE. Ambiance is ok. Place would be so much better with two bar tenders instead of one

Tuesday 6/25/2024 I originally heard about this spot from a Reddit that was talking about the best places in Maryland so I was quite intrigued and interested in visiting this spot. I made an order through toast app and got: smoked fried chicken with Brussel sprouts and hush puppies $24, fatty melt with hideaway fries $19, and the hideaway sampler with baked beans and Mac & cheese $28. I also got a 2 scoop cup of cookies n cream ice cream (from inside) for $7. -The smoked fried chicken was the best item I had. It was juicy, flavorful, and very good. -The Brussel sprouts were disappointing to me mainly due to how many different flavors you tasted and that didn't work out well especially with the cottage cheese so I'd give it a 5/10. -The hush puppies were pretty decent and it actually tasted better without the honey butter. -The fatty melt is a very unique and solid creation that has grilled cheese sandwiches as the buns for the burger. -the hideaway fries were alright but didn't really do anything for me. -the hideaway sampler comes with a smaller serving of brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and 2 wings so that you can sample everything you get. All the meats were moist and extremely tender. *the pork was alright but was significantly better with the sauces. *the brisket was very tender and fell apart easily but it could've been better with some more flavor & seasonings. *the wings were decent but I expected them to be a bit better. *the ribs were my favorite of the 4: they were tender ,flavorful, and really good with the sauces. -the baked beans were a solid 7/10. -the Mac n cheese was the WORST: it lacked seasoning and flavor. -the cookies n cream ice cream was good. -the sauces were solid but my favorites were the blackberry chipotle and the Carolina. Overall, the hideaway didn't quite meet the high expectations I had but it was still a good bbq experience that I would be open to returning to and recommending. read more

THE Spot -an unexpected party in the middle of the forest (: . Tues - trivia night Fri - open karaoke - Small parking lot so people resort to makeshift road parking. - Whiskey flights available from their considerable stock - to include Japanese whiskey! Jalapeno Brisket Rolls - a tasty sacrilegious phenomenal egg roll stuffed with delicious brisket (in my asian opinion) - in other words -- ORDER IT (: Crab dip - bread winning, as it was served perfectly warm, soft, and seemingly fresh pairing well with the dip. Blackberry Chipotle Wings - a creative sauce blend I'd of never think of trying if my friends hadn't ordered; good! . We arrived on the early side of 7ish on a Friday to secure parking. First impression was that this random cabin joint was just another country dive bar... I was right, but also so wrong. Food selections impressively delicious and creative, and drink menu pages are filled with a spectrum of inclinations - I was happily surprised to even find Japanese spirits. Going here on karaoke night was/is the right move. Unfortunately no pics for the post but lots of vids for the mems. . trust & try, cheers! (: read more

I have been here 5 times now. We usually stop in when visiting Maryland. The first visit the food was amazing! Visits 2-4 food was good, last visit disappointing. We ordered the plate with several cuts of meat: ribs and brisket dry. Pulled pork was just okay. Mac & Cheese overly cheesy and mushy pasta. Baked beans lacked flavor. Service was good and the ambiance is typical BBQ. Sorry to say I'm dropping it from our must eats when in Maryland. Gave it a three for service only! read more

Went in on a Sunday dinner with a couple of friends. We all had a bunch of appetizers, the ribs were really good and tender, award-winning chicken wings were up to that standard for sure, cornbread was flavorful. Nothing to complain about. Only reason it isn't 5 stars is because we never made it to entrées. read more

I recently visited the Hideaway for an early dinner with family and had a great experience. Camden, our server, was welcoming and provided excellent service throughout the meal. I've been here several times, and it never disappoints. I highly recommend the smoked fried chicken, and the hush puppies are always a favorite. I'll definitely be back. read more

A friend recommended this location and I was excited to go. She said the wings had won an award for being so delicious. Mine were undercooked and I didn't want to eat another. I was excited about the brisket because the description said it was cooked for about 12 hours. It had no flavor and my friend tried some and didn't enjoy it, she said it was too dry for her. My Brussel sprouts were over cooked and burnt. The only item I enjoyed on my plate were the hushpuppies. We were going to order dessert but since every dish we had wasn't pleasant, we decided to skip that. It is a large location so you can sit indoors, near a bar or in the middle section that's near the dessert area, there's also out door seating. Inside was pretty loud so it was nice to be outside with less noise. When we arrived, host just asked how many in the party and sat us - it was busy and crowded so I understand why we were not greeted with a hello. It was fun to try a new place and I get the appeal for locals but overall pretty bummed out how my food turned out. read more

I still like this place, maybe for sentimental reasons. I remember coming here with my parents back in the 80's/90's when it was called Jim's Hideaway and they served steamed crabs. They really should do that again. Oh but the parking ... It still has that hole in the wall vibe. Went in on a Sunday craving chicken wings. I really like theirs because I can order them plain with sauce on the side. My chicken sandwich was tasty as well. Our service was quick, but noticed that other tables had more of a wait for food. read more

As an Odenton native, I continue to be very happy with the food at The Hideaway. The brisket is always delicious and my daughter loves the pulled chicken sandwich. At brunch, the breakfast burger is wonderful and the chicken and waffles... yum! Comes with an entire half chicken smoked to deliciousness. No matter what, I always get the side of collard greens. ALWAYS GET THE COLLARDS! They are delicious and have a ton of smoked meat included. The staff is always amazing and I highly recommend this lovely place! read more
