What People Are Saying About Hideaway

Featured Review

Kathleen Squires

Contributor

In Short – Despite the name, this narrow nook has been discovered by locals who crowd the bar nightly for martinis and bar snacks like smoked deviled eggs and pigs in a blanket. Closer inspection reveals it's more than just a watering hole, with a handful of two-tops and a full dinner menu of simple staples like seared tuna, burgers, and chile-marinated steak. Daily desserts such as a crispy apricot tart are just as homey as the polished pub-like atmosphere.

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
A well-chosen, reasonably priced wine list by the glass includes a $6 Cotes du Rhone and a $7 Gruner Veltliner.
Where to Sit:
Despite the handful of tables, most patrons prefer the bar.

The Chef is Gone ... What will come?

by karenmhurley at Citysearch

I love the Hideaway, but what made it so special was Alex, the wonderful swiss chef, and sadly he has left. With Alex's departure, the once inviting space has been filled with 4 tvs and I understand that the menu will soon be changed.

what a burger!!!

by fatboyfatboy at Citysearch

this cool, trendy tribeca rest/bar has more than a great burger. but the burger is fantastic! the chef Alex apparently grinds up the sirloin and make the burgers daily by hand. BIG and Hearty with a full plate of crispy fries!!!

  • Pros: cool and trendy cold classic rock and roll photos on walls
  • Cons: some nights gets loud and busy. not always great for a quiet dining experience

a great new cozy spot in tribecca

by crabcaker at Citysearch

small and hidden this great new spot is a great addition to tribecca. great location on duane near the corner of greenwhich. a warm cozy atmosphere to grab a cold beer at the big mohagony bar or an unexpectedly tasty dinner: freerange cripsy chicken, burger and fries, seared tuna, and CRABCAKES (my favorite). the smoked devilled eggs rock are a unique touch as well....nicely decorated with cool rock and roll photos and after dinner the nightlife tends to pick up....i'll be back

  • Pros: good ambiance, friendly & warm, quaint
  • Cons: new-if thats con
