Those days, you could find celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and others hanging out. Back then, the two owners and their friends made their marks on the side of an old rowboat, which is still intact and hanging in The Hideout today.
Now almost 75 years later, the once, popular speakeasy, still has its fair share of celebrities making their way in for drinks, but caters mostly to locals and groups looking for a great neighborhood lounge. The neighborhood and the bar itself are both warm and inviting, and the drinks are created by some of LA's best bartenders. We offer a full bar along with some nice wines, import beers and specialty martinis.
