TEN REASONS TO CELEBRATE A BIRTHDAY AT JOHNNY’S HIDEAWAY

ATLANTA, GA / AGILITYPR.NEWS / March 24, 2022 / Atlanta’s Oldest Nightclub Keeps Patrons Feeling Young No Matter How Many Candles are on the Cake

Johnny’s Hideaway has been guaranteeing good times since 1979, and there’s no better place in Atlanta to commemorate a birthday. The storied nightclub usually attracts the over-40 crowd for drinks and serious dancing as the evening begins and then offers a late-night destination for the 20- and 30-somethings about town, so all ages feel welcome. Providing the distinctive combination of a packed dance floor and the familiarity of “Cheers,” Johnny’s gives guests of honor even more reasons to celebrate:

1. Guests are guaranteed to have a good time. Johnny’s owner Chris D’Auria always tells people who have never been to the Atlanta hotspot that they only need to give it 15 minutes. “Just get a stiff drink and start dancing!” he insists.

1. A reserved table. The popular nightclub often attracts lines of up to 100 guests, but Johnny’s will reserve a table for birthday parties until 8:30 p.m. for two to 15 people on weekends or for an unlimited number of guests on weeknights. Balloons and a birthday shout-out from the DJ also are included. *Only one check will be presented to any party over six people.

1. The irresistible tunes. At Johnny’s, guests cannot help but be drawn to the dance floor. The nightclub’s spectacular DJs entice the older crowds who are happy with old school funk and disco while also drawing the younger patrons to the dance floor with more modern music. The most requested songs at Johnny’s Hideaway are “Dancing Queen” by ABBA and “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” by Whitney Houston.

1. The impressive dance moves. Johnny’s was originally a shag, swing, and ballroom dance club, and talented dancers still show off their moves there to this day. It’s a special treat to witness skilled couples with fancy footwork from eras gone by while dancing the night away with friends.

1. The nostalgic atmosphere. Whether you were born in the 70s and longing for the early days of disco or you’re a baby of the 80s looking to hear the music of your youth, Johnny’s offers a healthy dose of nostalgia around every corner (and that includes the King’s Corner, which pays tribute to Elvis). Birthdays have a way of making everyone take a walk down memory lane!

1. The royal treatment. The doormen, bartenders, and cocktail servers at Johnny’s are the best in the business and are one of the top reasons guests always grow to love the nightclub. Many staff members have been employed there for more than 20 years.

1. The quick service: At Johnny’s, mixed drinks are stronger than average, and the no-fuss beverage offerings are served at warp speed. The team behind the bar has service down to a science.

1. The kitchen is open late. The kitchen at Johnny’s is open until 2 a.m. and serves a wide assortment of small plates and all-day breakfast service, especially tater tots during the late-night hours. 

1. The chance to meet (or reconnect with) that special someone. Many couples have met at Johnny’s and then married. So many in fact that the running joke among staff members is, “Who gets the Hideaway in the divorce?”

1. The iconic swag. Give birthday party guests the ultimate party favor – a Johnny’s Hideaway t-shirt. Johnny’s offers a selection of classic graphic tees to commemorate the occasion.
