I am there at least once a month in colder months. We have our motorcycle group meetings there at lunch time in cold months and sometimes in summer. Always great food. Amazing bartenders. Treat us very well. Accommodating to our varying size group every month.

We were in Wisconsin (Franklin) for a family event. Our first night we went to the hideaway for dinner. Great choice. Neither of us were able to eat all of our meal. Lots of food! I had whisky beef tips and les had a fried chicken dinner. The tips were very tender and served with a mushroom sauce on mashed potatoes. Really good! The chicken was moist and nice, crisp skin. Served with roasted redskin potatoes and coleslaw, all of which were also delicious. Our appetizer was mozzarella logs. Yum! You. Ant go wrong here. Megan, our server, was great as were the rest of the staff.

Great bar in Frakli, crazy busy on Fridays from 4pm because of great food and several selections of fish. Excellent chicken wings and fish selection is great, perch cod walleye blue gills just great.

I placed an order for 2 of the 8 piece chicken wings. I told the person on the phone that I was only going to order if they were unbreaded and she assured me they were. I picked up the order and when I got home I opened the boxes and they each had 10 little chicken nuggets in the boxes. The breaded mushrooms that I had ordered were just mush! Just complete mush and completely wet! They were absolutely disgusting! I called and the woman that took my order, answered again and told me that she could not find a manager and that she once she did, she would have them call me back. They never called me back! No surprise! Will never go there again! New owners!!!! Not the same restaurant at all!!

It’s been a couple years since my last visit to the Hideaway. Let me say, the Fish Fry is great. Both the 2-piece and 3-piece Fish Fries, have hand-breaded cod that has mildly, crunchy batter AND flaky fish. Perfectly done! Try the Tater Tots -they were actually better than the fries. Rye bread and Cole slaw are ok, not spectacular. Only drawback is just one small cup of tartar sauce. I have to say, the fish is nearly good enough to skip the tartar sauce, but traditionalist will want their tartar!
We skipped the crowded Friday diner, and did Take out. It was done in 10 minutes. Long enough for an Old-fashioned! Yum!
With 2 tartar cups, the Fish fry gets 5 stars! We’ll be back.

I saw this place while looking up something else in the area and had to look into it further. The menu options definitely made me want to try out this place. It was a little confusing for a first timer walking in the door as there wasn’t a host / hostess stand. I asked someone and got all kinds of information pretty quickly. They have a large seating area (Banquet room) that they open up for their busier times. Otherwise, you can seat yourself in the dining room or outside. The service was ok. Our main waitress was nice but not openly friendly like I would have expected at a comfortable place like this. There were food runners that helped out and took plates away. Everyone seemed to be focused on keeping busy. That could have been why the waitress seemed just nice. Not positive. They do pass along the credit card charges to the customer but they are very clear about it. It wasn’t a surprise and you can choose cash or credit. I have been to other places that aren’t so transparent about the credit card fees. I appreciated this place for sure.
I am positive that this place deserves a stop to check it out. Then when you start looking into the menu, you realize that this place deserves a few stops! The food was great. The atmosphere was great. The other customers all seemed to be enjoying themselves like they were at a friend’s place. Great vibe!

Stopped in for a beer and an appetizer. Had the Ruben rolls which were cooked just right, had great flavor, and the dipping sauce was good. Had a couple Tailwagger Amber beers on tap which were cold and had great flavor.

First time here, ordered for carry-out. Food was decent but definitely nothing special or that would keep me coming back. BBQ Rib sandwich had good flavor but a very odd texture. Cheese curds were good but definitely overpriced for what they were.

Looks like a local favorite. We stopped in after driving past as it looked like a fun place. We were not disappointed. Had the crispy chicken wrap which was delicious and a generous portion. I had enough to take home for lunch the next day. And they have tater tots which always makes me happy! They were perfectly done as well.
