Hideaway Lounge — Local services in Columbus

I went to a brunch here last Saturday. The bartender, Amanda, or whatever her name is refused to serve me the whole time that I was there. I complained to her boss and had already cashed out when she accused me of not paying for my drinks. When I told her it wasn’t my drinks and I had already cashed out nor did I owe her any money because she refused to serve me, she threw her hand in my face and told me to get the F out. After I approached her she tried to put her hands on me and also threw stuff at me from behind the bar. Mikayla however was a GREAT bartender and took care of almost everyone that was there because Amanda would rarely serve anyone. You could visibly see how busy Mikayla was while Amanda sat on her phone and made faces at the people at the bar waiting to be served. She would wait until Mikayla came to the bar and would say “She’ll get it”. I will not return as long as Amanda is employed here. Her service is horrible and she needs...

This has to be the most sorry excuse for a bar I have ever been to. It’s not because of the environment or the employees. It’s because of the owners. They have a complete and utter disregard for the people that bring in the money and ensure the success of their business. They refuse to pay their employees what they truly deserve. They refuse to acknowledge the fact that their business is going under due to their poor decision making. Despite the vast and extraordinary knowledge of their bartender, they still choose to follow their own delusions. Then as if it couldn’t get any worse, they fire their bartender because he got sick. That is against the law. So now you have lost the only reason why any of us ever even went to the Hideaway, your bartender. Since he doesn’t work there anywhere, There’s no reason to ever come back again. Anyone I know won’t be coming...

The place had only two waitresses for about 100 people on their comedy night. They set up a small stage and the bar is right there in the midst of the show making all the bar sounds of clinking glasses, shaking drinks and talking interfere with hearing what the comedian is saying. I’m sure some of the jokes were funny as those right up front could hear, but unfortunately we in the back could not. The drinks were sub-par. I asked for a frangelico on the rocks and the well-drink version was brought to me and it was simply awful. We pay enough ($9-$10) for a drink so it should not be watered down. Very disappointing visit and we will...
