Hyde Away Catfish Inn
About This Spot
Tucked just off VV Highway in the quiet town of Broseley, Hyde Away Catfish Inn invites you into a warmly familiar world where time moves at a gentle, unhurried pace. Walking through the door, there’s an immediate sense of ease—an atmosphere that feels like a cherished gathering place where neighbors drop in, stories flow freely, and the day’s worries hush in favor of simple pleasures.
This is the kind of local seafood spot where the clinking of ice-cold beer glasses blends naturally with the hum of friendly conversation and the soft laughter of children fascinated by the pond out back. With fresh, lightly breaded catfish fillets and crispy hushpuppies served alongside homestyle sides, every meal feels like a nod to home cooking, the kind that comforts and satisfies without fuss. The food here isn’t just eaten—it’s savored amid moments that linger, from watching family members feed the fish and turtles just beyond the dining room to sharing a birthday cake discreetly brought out with warm smiles.
What truly sets Hyde Away Catfish Inn apart is how effortlessly it balances a casual, down-to-earth vibe with attentive, heartfelt service. Whether you’re nestled at a table for a bustling family gathering or enjoying a quiet meal with a service animal by your side, there’s a sincere kindness that threads through the experience. It’s the kind of place where servers anticipate needs before they’re spoken, and where the friendly faces around you reflect a community that's glad to have you join their table.
Visiting Hyde Away feels less like dining out and more like rediscovering a pause—a space where honest flavors and genuine connections come together to create a meal worth remembering. It’s not just about the deep-fried catfish or the perfectly seasoned baked beans; it’s about the small, human gestures that turn a simple dinner into a meaningful occasion.

Food was amazing as ever, The owner was super friendly and helpful. Waitress was very good at her job. Noone at my table wanted or waited for anything., our party was 13 people. She was on top of it all. They even hid a cake in the kitchen for My mother's Birthday an brought it out for us at the conclusion of our meal. Mom had the best Birthday dinner in years. Everyone else joyed themselves, enjoyed the great food, and total experience. We will return many more times In the future.

The grands enjoyed feeding the fish and turtles. The baked beans were amazing - and I typically do not like baked beans. The food is deep fried, but still good.

The atmosphere was great. The people were very friendly. Service animal friendly was great. The fish pond in the back was awesome. The kids loved it. They give out free food to give the fish in the back pond. There's some big ones in there. Didn't see the turtles though. Lol. The staff was great. The customers were friendly and very accepting of my service animal. No complaints, only compliments. Had a great time. The family did, too. Would go back there again.

Am a 1st timer to Missouri and especially Catfish and I tell you what! I was really really good. A light moist, breaded deep fried filet. Topped off with fresh onions or their homemade tartar sauce baked beans tangy honey flavor with home style coleslaw with fries & little hushpuppy was a top choice. Didn't try the shrimp ( Allergy reasons) My mother in law said it was really tasty. Service and hospitality was amazing. Id for sure go back.
