This place is on the grounds of Giants Ridge so a nice short walk if you are staying there. It was…read moresteamy hot so we ate inside but they have a patio with beautiful views of the ski hill. I chose the Greek salad, one of my favs, and it was a very generous portion full of cucumbers, tomatoes, Kalamata olives and feta cheese, oh and a bit of lettuce - my kind of salad. Very good. Wish I would have remembered to ask for dressing on the side as it was quite covered but still good. The waitstaff was 2 people for the whole restaurant so they were super busy, especially with a couple large tables but they were friendly, warned it could be a bit of a wait and in the end, it was faster than many other restaurants we had been to. No worries there. They did a great job.

The fettuccine Alfredo was bland, the soup could have bought at Panera, and the fries and Cesar salad is nothing to write home about. The service was excellent! We had a large group and they were very attentive! If you are staying at Giants it's an easy place to eat at, so I wouldn't totally rule this place out.

When you are in Babbitt, MN your choices are limited. That being said, you could end up somewhere…read morefar worse than the Hide Away. We found ourselves in Babbitt because we were doing a boundary waters trip the next day. We wanted to go out and have some fun before we hit the water. We discovered that the Hide Away was right near our little cabin/bunkhouse. Our outfitter said it was a lively place, and he was right. You walk in and it has a sense of being the Cheers of the town, but also a place that adventurers come to relax at. The best way to describe it is a sense of community, but you have to earn your place there. You earn your place by being there to push yourself in the boundary waters. The people are friendly and so much fun to watch. At one point a guy came around offering everyone some fried fish he just caught. I don't turn down free food ever, so it was a nice treat. Again that sense of all are welcome, but with a purpose. The other reason we sought this place out was the bartender, Jenny. We read a review talking about Jenny and just had to meet her. She is a true dive bartender. She whipped up shots, drinks, and beers in mere seconds. Despite being the only bartender she worked the entire room. I don't think anyone waited for a drink. She is also quite a character to talk to. We did order some food from the bar. It was about as good as you would expect bar food to be here. Edible, decent flavors, and lots of it. Fun way to kick off a memorable trip. 55/100
