Tucked away on a quiet side street in Bath, The Hideout has quietly built a reputation as one of the city’s premier cocktail destinations. This month, their dedication to craft and hospitality has been officially recognized as the bar received the prestigious “One Pin” award from the Pinnacle Guide — an honor often regarded as the cocktail industry’s equivalent of a Michelin Star.
The Pinnacle Guide celebrates bars that excel in creativity, service, and atmosphere, and The Hideout now joins an exclusive circle of just 150 venues worldwide to hold this distinction. Earlier this year, the bar was also named among Britain’s top 10 cocktail bars — proof of their ongoing commitment to quality and innovation.
George Reed, General Manager of The Hideout, expressed his pride in the award and the team behind it. “This achievement reflects the immense passion, creativity, and dedication of every member of our team,” he said. “From bartenders to floor staff, everyone channels their talent and heart into creating memorable experiences. This award belongs to them.”

Reed also extended his gratitude to the patrons who have made the bar a cherished local gem. “Our guests have been integral to this journey. Each visit, each moment shared here has helped shape The Hideout into something truly special. This accolade is as much theirs as it is ours.”
The Pinnacle Guide “One Pin” award is not just a milestone but a motivation to keep striving for excellence. “It’s a powerful reminder to keep innovating, to keep growing, and to maintain a space that feels like home while offering exceptional, boundary-pushing cocktails.”
Open daily from 5pm to 11pm on Sundays through Fridays, and from 3pm on Saturdays, The Hideout continues to welcome both seasoned cocktail enthusiasts and curious newcomers alike. Guests can also participate in whiskey tastings hosted twice monthly, with options for private bookings available online.
