Editorial Review for The Hideout – by Michael Martin

In Short
With a curved entrance and simple neon cocktails sign, the Friendship has been transformed into an airy cocktail hangout. Swaying curtains separate the nautically themed bar area from the main lounge, which is decorated with images of Santa Monica in the '20s. The second floor features a loft and an overlook to the low-back-chair-filled rear patio. A now predominantly straight crowd ranges from flip-flop-wearing canyon dwellers to nearby restaurant patrons dropping in for weekend DJs and neighborhood gossip.

User Reviews for The Hideout

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

The Hideout is the best place to have your party, whether it's a birthday, graduation, going away, holiday, or even a charity event. They have a private room upstairs, or you can reserve tables in the main lounge. The venue and staff are tons of fun, and there's even a DJ and dancing on the weekends. Check out their Karaoke on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9pm-1am...and FREE Tacos on Thursdays. The Hideout is the type of place that's in between a bar and a club...it's perfect!

Pros: Great service, drinks...and people!
