The Hideout — Cocktail Bar in Bath

The Hideout is a whisky and cocktail bar located on 1 Liliput Court in Bath. Just outside the city centre, this underground space has deep roots in local lore. It’s home to over 300 whiskies available by the dram or through monthly tastings at £25 per session. You can find it open from 4pm to 10:30pm nightly, ideal for a late-night drink with friends or a solo evening when you want something quiet but not lonely.

The Hideout is housed in a stone building with Tudor architecture, originally known as a den for thieves and opportunists. The interior stays true to its underground setting, with wood-laden walls and stonewalled corridors lit dimly to create an intimate mood. You can find it just outside the city centre, accessed through Lilliput Court, no flashy signs, just quiet entryways that suit the moody vibe. The high noise level adds to the sense of closeness, while the historic textures remain unobtrusive.

The Hideout is an evening-only bar where whisky lovers and cocktail enthusiasts meet for drinks in a refined yet atmospheric setting. Over 300 whiskies are available by the dram or as part of guided tastings at £25, including five drams and a welcome drink. You can book private sessions via email. It’s perfect for couples on date nights or solo drinkers looking to connect with people who appreciate well-made drinks. The dim lighting and underground feel make it easy to forget time, just don’t miss last entry at 10:30pm.
