First time at Mary’s Hideaway in Johnsburg. Burger was cooked to perfection. It was served with fresh cut fries. Service was great! Finishing touch was a delicious brownie sundae. Excellent experience… will definitely return!

First time to eat at Mary’s. It came recommended. Had an 18″ “The Storm” pizza. The pizza was good. What I specifically noticed is I was not sucking down bottles of water later in the afternoon/evening as I do when visiting other pizza joints. One thing I did notice is the menu on the website IS NOT the actual or updated menu. Staff are kind, and the place is clean including the bathrooms. I would come back to this place again and eat.

One of the best ruben sandwiches I’ve had! Great fresh cut fries as well.

If I could rate 0 stars I would. We ordered from them using their website and when we arrived to pick up the food they told us their website doesn’t work. When we showed them our order and the payment that went through they told us there’s nothing they can do and were very rude about not helping us resolve the issue at all. Obviously they don’t want any customers or service as they didn’t even try to mend the situation. Will never ever order from here again and would STRONGLY advise no one goes there.

Our first experience at this hideaway (and yes, it’s kind of hidden away) was pretty good. The pizza, fried shrimp, fries and sauces were good. Actually, the shrimp was very good. The chicken strips were too dry though. My husband enjoyed his beer and we enjoyed the music until the karaoke started. The DJ and sound system were great; we’re just not karaoke people. The atmosphere is pretty brown and plain, but that’s okay. We would’ve used the pool table if we didn’t have one at home. Asia the bartender served us, and she was excellent.

Came for a late night snack and got the royal treatment!
Mary, yes THE Mary, and her whole family have started what is sure to be THE pizza, American cuisine, ice cream and social gathering place that North East Johnsburg and McHenry County have needed. From Kaitelynd behind the bar to Victor, Mary’s son to Dave her husband you feel like you are home. They have an extensive and delicious menu. I came for a small Margherita pizza quickly upgraded to the 18″ Titan, which I found out is named after Victor’s German Shepard (seen in my picture). It turns out Mary’s has several dishes named after the fur-babies like Titan and Scout!
Mary and the gang let me sample thier chilli and it was what my dad might have made back when I was a kid. The fresh cherry cheesecake made by her daughter simply melted in my mouth!
All of this great food and atmosphere will have me coming back soon. But I think their new high end ice cream machines will have me coming back for ice cream drinks, cones and sundaes ! Ask nicely and Kaitelynd might tell you about the icee flavors she has waiting for you! LOL
The 1st & 3rd Wednesdays are car show nights and make sure to join them at the grand opening on June 10th with Johnsburg’s mayor cutting the ribbon.
Sorry if this rambling, but I ate so much at Mary’s, I feel a full, comfy and ready for a solid night’s rest……….zzzzzz

I’ve been to Mary’s a few times now, but the last time we went in for dinner, I was very disappointed. 9/15/2023. I wanted the fried perch. What I got was two pieces of overcooked fish, small, overcooked hushpuppies, and soggy veggies. The only saving grace to the meal was the coleslaw, but that isn’t saying much. The cost for my meal was insane for the portion that I had and it didn’t include anything else like a salad or soup. My husband got a burger and it was great. What really stinks about the place though is the service. They don’t have a waitress there and it is just the bartender, who pays more attention to the bar patrons then those sitting at the tables.
I will be back. Other than the fish dinner, they have fantastic pizza, breakfast and burgers. Just this time wasn’t the best.

Warm, inviting atmosphere. Wings by far the best I have had in years. Pizza was delicious, crispy crust, savory pizza sauce and fresh meat toppings. Mary was extremely accommodating. Great place to meet up with friends and family. Can’t wait to come back again.
