Restaurant
Libby's Southern Comfort is a cozy former grocery store turned restaurant in Covington, offering a blend of Midwest and Southern cuisines. The menu features classic comfort dishes like mac & cheese, fried green tomatoes, po' boys, and crowd-pleasing fried chicken. In addition to these staples, the restaurant also incorporates influences from Cincinnati and northern Kentucky with unique offerings such as goetta hush puppies and pimento cheese fritters.
First time trying Libby’s and the food did not disappoint. The fried chicken sandwich was massive and the batter was light and crispy. I could eat this sandwich weekly. The fries were 10/10 and the flavor on the oyster po boy was great; super soft bread. Service was attentive and drinks were good. The dessert menu looked incredible. I was really hoping the crème pies were available, sadly sold out! We snagged a bread pudding to go and it barely made it home! We will definitely be throwing Libby’s into our dinner rotation.

The food was good. (The wife wanted more southern choices). The portobello sandwich was messy but tasty. You’ll just need to ask for extra napkins. The hot honey chicken sandwich was tasty as well, would have preferred it to be a little more messy though. The seasons fries were crispy and had great flavor. We liked the atmosphere, it was open with a rustic decor. We were there during great weather so it was open air which made it even more pleasant. Service was very good. Definitely recommend.

Libby’s Southern Comfort is incredible! My best friend and I stopped here for lunch during our girls trip, and I’m still thinking about it. The hot honey chicken sandwich was hands down the best I’ve ever had—crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The mac n cheese? Unreal. Creamy, rich, and totally unforgettable. The restaurant has a modern, welcoming vibe, and our server was amazing—so friendly and full of great energy. Even though I live four hours away, I’ve already told everyone I know about this place. I’m 100% coming back with my husband. Libby’s is a must-visit!

Stopped in at Libby’s at 2:45 today (Saturday) for a late lunch. The restaurant was empty other than one table of four. We made it halfway across the restaurant and were asked to wait a moment while the bartender/hostess cleaned a table. She didn’t bother to wipe down the booth seat which was covered in sesame seeds and other debris. Once seated, our server quickly came by to get our drink order. The entire visit, the bartender/hostess and two servers were either on their phones, sitting with the other occupied table and talking loudly, or visibly eating food in the kitchen. Our server was the only floor staff who kept herself busy refilling straws, cleaning, refilling sugars, etc. I ordered the shrimp roll and Southern Mac and cheese with a sweet tea. Hubby ordered the two piece chicken with Mac and cheese, fries, and sweet tea. The shrimp roll description gave the impression of big flavors. The only real flavor came from the Grippos bbq chips. There was an excellent quantity of shrimp, but even with the old bay/mayo seasoning it was bland. I was excited for the Southern Mac and cheese - but was disappointed in the flavor as well. No cheesy flavor, no southern kick at the end, not even a bread crumb. It was almost like plain Mac noodles with cheddar melted on top. Hubby’s fried chicken was better. Good crunch on the chicken skin, nice brine albeit a little salty. The meat was super juicy. His Mac and cheese was also mediocre. The fries were tasty, but not house made. The biscuit was “fine”. The sweet tea was perfect. I’ve never in my life had bland Southern food until today. My husband’s granny from Alabama would not approve.

Libby’s was fun to visit with friends for dinner, its location is quaint and is a bit small, but there is ample outdoor seating if you don’t mind the heat. High level, service was great & food was good, but there was nothing memorable enough on the menu to make me desire to return. The fried green tomato batter was thin which caused it to flake off when I cut into it. Wouldn’t order again. The avocado sandwich was good. I had to cut the sandwich myself upon arrival. The fries were tasty too. Service was great, they executed all of our dietary modifications excellently. One callout out- the lack of other tables/customers had the waitress rushing our meal unintentionally.

Best Dammm Restaurant 200 miles from Cincinnati.. Deviled Eggs, Bologna Sandwich, Fried Green Tomato.. Great Slushie. Make your Way to Libby if you want your taste buds to dance.

Visited on a Saturday around dinner time. Busy but not slammed. No wait for a 2 top table. Server was great! Checked back often but was not pushy or made us feel rushed at all. Drinks: Cherrwine Bourbon Slush FTW! This is a great cocktail. Appetizer: Goetta Hush Puppies - The reason we came. Weird texture; I'm sure from the combo. Not off putting, just different from expectations. I was expecting typical, light brown southern hush puppies with a little goetta. They were dark, almost burnt and tasted that way. No goetta flavor, no light batter... Very disappointing. 1/10. The remoulade sauce was great but couldn't save them. Food: Hot Honey chicken sandwich was great! Very crispy and juicy...not an easy combo. Hot Honey sauce was perfect..slight heat, sweet and not too much of it to be over powering! Bun was perfectly toasted! 10/10 would order again. Cole Slaw (on the side). Not sure if it was homemade or food service, but great flavor, not overly dry or moist. Nearly a perfect slaw. Picked onions were STRONG! (I'm not a fan of picked onions in general so....) Garlic Mashed Potatoes: Where's the garlic? Very little flavor of any kind in this scoop of mashed potatoes. Ordinary and plain. Nothing wrong but nothing to write home about. 3/10 Willy Burger. Great flavor, albeit very dry. Smoky undertones. Hate to ruin the flavor with a condiment, but was necessary due to dryness. 6/10 = Would be higher but can you say DRY! Southern Mac n Cheese. Better than the mashed potatoes. Good flavor, gooey cheese. 8/10 Overall, 4 cocktails ($40 - not bad at all!) , 2 sandwiches and an appetizer ($57).... Total: $97 pre tip. (don't forget the 3% credit card fee! I mean, come on! Yes it is clearly on the menu but who honestly goes out with that much cash for a meal these days!?) So $100 and $10 to park in the lot across the street. Wasn't busy and no close on street or free parking (maybe there is but not familiar enough with the area to know). $130 meal that wasn't impressive or anything special. YMMV.

Really good food. Had Hot chicken sandwich (not very spicy, slight tang) with collards for a side.. Collard were the hit. Perfectly cooked! I'd have bought a big bowl and been perfectly happy with them alone. Awesome wait staff. Great attention and never felt forgotten.

Rich's Proper Food and Drink is a trendy restaurant and bar located in Covington, offering a fusion of American pub and Southern Cajun cuisine. The establishment boasts one of the best whiskey and bourbon selections in the area. Housed in a space that was once a jewelry store, Rich's features an industrial-style setting with a prominent neon sign that can be seen from blocks away.
Fun fun fun food and nice place. I enjoyed the fish n chips $19. The only thing I didn’t like was that the batter was a bit too mushy on the inside so I peeled it off. The codfish was gigantic and the fish was fresh. The fries (sidewinders) were the most unique cut I ever saw. And they were crispy on the outside and the potato was smooth almost like mashed potatoes on the inside. The coleslaw was very healthy and included cabbage, carrots, fresh scallion. Great ambience. The waitress was lovely. I liked having a full carafe of water at my table so I didn't have to ask for more water. Wednesdays they have 50% off oysters! And they have that boiled Parmesan garlic and cheese oyster ... yummy.

This was our first time trying Rich's proper food and drinks. We went there for a friend's bday and they were pretty good with reservations. We started with a few drinks off their menu and everyone really loved their drinks. We then ordered the appetizers which were ahhmaazing. The corn fritters were the highlight for me. The black eyed peas hummus and the veggie wings were also really good. For our main course I tried the Chicken Philly which was equally good as the rest of the food. The Tofu Banh Mi is a great and filling option for the vegetarian. The marinated tofu was really flavorful. Our friends ordered the Hot Honey Chicken, shrimp and grits and the smoked cheddar bacon burger. And everyone was really happy with their food. The entrees do come with plenty of great side options which makes up for their higher prices. Our server also took great care of us. I would have given them a 4.5 if I could. We will definitely come back !!

I had a lovely lunch here. Service was good. Menu is limited but we’ll curated. They have fresh oysters. And specials on oysters on Wednesdays, starting at 4pm. The Hot honey chicken sandwich was delicious. The only downside to a the parking situation (admittedly, there was a lot of road construction ongoing, early May 2024). A bonus: good amount of outdoor seating (picnic tables and regular tables, with umbrellas for the sun).

My husband and I went there for lunch. They weren’t very busy very nice atmosphere. The bartender was also our waitress and I ordered the hot honey fried chicken sandwich with the fries and a side of collard greens and let me tell you the sandwich is amazing. Really really good. I don’t have a picture, but my husband got the fish and chips and I want to say it’s the best fish I’ve had in a long time. We will definitely be going back.

Went for an early dinner so got some happy hour deals. The food was great, cocktails perfect, service awesome! I can't have dairy and they know exactly what is in every item, and can make many items vegan. They told me every cocktail is dairy free because the bartenders have a dairy allergy too! Yay! Will be back! Really enjoyed the patio too!

Great little place with lots of options for beverages and eats. I was lucky to come in on American Bourbon night so that got me 25% off. My waiter was very knowledgeable and helped me with selecting a bourbon. His recommendation was spot on. As for dinner I had shrimp and grits and really enjoyed it as well.

Like the draft beer selection. Small bar atmosphere. Our third time visiting was a charm. Much better service experience. Pictured is the shrimp and grits and the braised pork lettuce wraps. Order the shrimp and grits. It is outstanding. Great flavor. Not bland. The acoustics make this place very loud when it is full.

Nestled in the historic German neighborhood of MainStrasse in Covington, Old Kentucky Bourbon Bar (OKBB) is a popular spot known for its vibrant atmosphere and extensive selection of over 700 American whiskeys. The bar, affectionately referred to as OKBB by locals, is owned by Molly Wellmann and offers a cozy patio where patrons can sample rare and vintage bottles.
Awesome punk bourbon bar. Phil was amazing and made the best hurricane I've ever had. Highly recommend!

This is kind of a dive bourbon bar but definitely worth stopping in. Taylor the bartender was absolutely fantastic. They climbed a ladder to get a bottle that we wanted a pour of. We got a flight and the store pick of Russell’s was out of this world but unfortunately not for sale. The restroom was clean. Our only complaint was the bar and the menus were really sticky. Like so sticky that we washed our hands in the fountain outside when we left. However, definitely worth a visit if you’re a bourbon drinker because they have over 500 bottles.

This was a cool little spot to visit. Tons and tons of bourbon options, mixed drinks, and knowledgeable bartenders.

Stopped in before the Reds game on a Friday afternoon, recommended by a friend. Immediately noticed one other patron, a lady knitting at the bar. Honestly, I felt we were interrupting the bartender. He did greet us, however the vibe was very awkward. We were complimenting the large variety on bourbons and we felt unwelcome. To be a Bourbon Bar, I expected more….. to not have the Large Ice ball/cube was an immediate turnoff. He offered no recommendations nor acted interested in customer service. I will not go again or recommend. There are much better options in Covington.

This small, friendly place has an outstanding selection of bourbons, and some you can buy and take home with you. The bar area seats about 15 with room for maybe another 10-15 standing. The bartenders were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and polite. If there weren't regulars there, then they treated you like you were. Great spot for a quick beverage, or to sit and sip a while - good music, good atmosphere.

If you have a love for Bourbon or just want to learn more about it, this is the place to go. Over 600 different bottles of Bourbon. Lilly was our bartender and she was amazing with here knowledge of Bourbon and her love for the bar. In November they got their license to sell bottles to the public. Some are hard to find. Make it a point of navigating your love for Bourbon and join the locals at the Old Kentucky Bourbon Bar!

Revival Vintage Bottle Shop is a treasure trove for spirit enthusiasts, curated by the passionate collector Brad Bonds. This unique destination offers an extraordinary experience where visitors can sample vintage liquors that transport you back in time. Imagine sipping on a 1954 Old Grand Dad bourbon or a 1940s Galliano herbal liqueur, all while surrounded by charmingly dusty bottles reminiscent of yesteryears.
Revival Vintage Bottle Shop is a treasure trove of history and flavor! Sampling a 1967 I.W. Harper Bourbon Whiskey was an unforgettable experience—the rich, complex flavors transported me back in time. After falling in love with its elegance and depth, I couldn’t leave without buying a bottle for myself. Brad’s passion and knowledge made the visit even more special. This place is a must-visit for any bourbon enthusiast!

I LOVE this place! Stopped in to grab a drink at the bar and experienced the Canadian Lights cocktail. It was seriously one THE BEST old-fashioneds I have had. Prepared with Canadian Whiskey and pure maple syrup and a surprise ingredient, it made my taste buds do a boogie. Cocktail in hand, I walked upstairs to check out their spirit shop. It was such a cool space with vintage bottles, dating as far back as a century. If bottles could talk, I wonder what story they would tell. So interesting. I ended my trip at the tasting station. You can actually do 1/4 oz pours at affordable prices. This allows you to explore several varieties of spirits, without hurting your pocketbook. The owner Bob, was so cool and knowledgable. He encouraged me to try scotch for the first time. Now I am on a quest to learn more. Shout out to Bob and staff. My trip was fun and memorable. I plan to return soon and often. Cheers!

Revival was an amazing experience. Being a big bourbon enthusiast I was like a kid in a candy store. You can tell all of the bartenders were passionate about vintage spirits and the history that comes with the process. Prices on all of the pours were priced fairly for the ages that were available. The atmosphere was great and it was like walking into the past and tasting the spirits of yesteryear. I will definitely stop in again the next time I’m in town. If you’re a fan of bourbon, Revival should be at the top of your list.

10/10 recommend this place! It’s one of the most unique concepts we’ve experienced - the New vs. Old options available make for a fun tasting and it’s a very interesting way to try new flavor profiles and ages of bourbon! They have bar and table seating on the first floor and the vintage bottle shop upstairs! It’s located right on the corner as well but it’s easy to walk by and not notice just how cool this place is. If you’re visiting the area or staying at Hotel Covington, this is a short walk from everything in the area and well worth the visit. Special shoutout to Perry and Brad for the service and telling us more about their startup and ongoing operations! Highly recommend and we’ll be back for another visit soon!

What an amazing shop! The upstairs tasting area is a unique experience, where else can you sample a whiskey from 1946 or a tequila from 1960? Revival is truly one of a kind. The owner and staff are incredibly knowledgeable about fine spirits and share the stories behind every vintage bottle. If you love whiskey or bourbon, this is an absolute must-visit.

I had a blast here. Love the very knowledgeable bartender and other customers were friendly. You can have food orders delivered here, too. I stopped in because it was on the way to dinner and it was new* to me. I had a twist on the classic Manhattan; with dark chocolate bitters and smoked cherry accents. The presentation and aroma made it even better. *Opened Fall 2024 next to Hotel Covington

Vintage bottle shop upstairs, great cocktails and atmosphere downstairs. Revival’s new space in Covington is wonderful, with plenty of room to display all the bottles available to taste or purchase. Speaking of tasting, Revival offers quarter, half, and full ounce options to make sure anyone can try even the most rare of liquors within a reasonable budget.

Located in Covington, Smoke Justis is a multilevel sports bar that offers a wide range of experiences. Known for its smoked meats, craft beers, and extensive whiskey selection, it's the perfect spot to catch a game while indulging in decadent barbecue. The menu features popular items like the Catfish Dinner and during Lent, they offer specials like Smoked Tuna Dip and Smoked Crab Cakes on Fridays.
We had a nice time at Smoke Justis. We found a spot on one of the couches in the back by the bar. We went up to the bar to get drinks. It wasn’t crazy busy and still took a long long time to get our order in. My wife had a cosmo which she didn’t really care for. My old fashioned was really good right on point. We split the nachos, we got the full with smoked pork. They were very good. Loaded with toppings, we planned on it being an appetizer for dinner somewhere else later that evening but were so full we never got dinner. What made this a 5 star experience was I came in initially to see if they had koozies for sale because we get one every place we travel to and they don’t sell them but a worker went to the back and found a couple for us to have which was awesome as we had popped in 10-15 places before this one before we were gonna walk back over to Cincinnati. Really appreciated that. Would definitely check them out again and get the nachos!

This place looks amazing on the inside. One of the coolest looking bars that I have seen in the greater Cincinnati area. They have an excellent bourbon selection, and the bar tender was able to make me a delicious mint julip. The place used to be a phone operator switch board called the Citizens Telephone Building. It has amazing architecture on the inside, you just don’t see buildings like this anymore. Staff were friendly, and the bar tender was great. I would definitely come back again.

Smoke Justis has an amazing atmosphere and Great service, waiter was very friendly, we had the smoked wings appetizer and they did not disappoint. My meal was the smoked meat plate, the brisket was amazing, and the ribs were just ok, a little dry if I had to say anything negative, but not a deal breaker. Our party also had the brisket Mac n cheese and thought is was delicious, although the last plate was the smoked chicken bacon ranch wrap that was middle of the line. Overall we really liked Smoked Justis and will be back.

The Globe is a trendy cocktail haunt located in Covington, formerly a strip club transformed into a modern bar.

I love coming here for the classy enviornment and the variety of whiskeys and bourbons to try.

This is honestly one of the best tasting restaurants I’ve had in the Cincinnati area. It’s a small menu but they do it will and are very good at adapting to dietary restrictions. My wife got tofu subbed in the risotto dish that originally had fish and it was still amazing! I will be back to try a few more dishes because everything tasted healthy and refreshing. It’s an older building but they stay true to their roots of farm to table. Certainly would recommend for a date night!

Some flavors were greatly appreciated and others appealed to different palates, nonetheless it was excellent and entertaining to try as much as possible. Great place for a close group willi g to share some bites amongst each other. Superb date night spot with Menue Course selections and additional wine pairings if needed. Pricey buy worth it ! Great atmosphere and superb servers just not a traditional dining experience so know what you're getting into but I highly recommend the culinary journey. Enjoy !

Came for our anniversary. Great concept, great atmosphere and amazing service! First 2 courses were great, but main course was a little on the salty side and wife's steak a little tough(ordered the 4 course tasting menu). But dessert was pretty good. Overall very good place and would return for another season when menu changes

The food was so fresh and tasty and the service was great. They have a small menu which I love because it makes it easier to decide on a meal. They rotate it with the season so we will definitely return to try a new menu.

Restaurant
Coppin's Restaurant & Bar, located at Hotel Covington, pays homage to the building's history as Coppins Department Store. The restaurant offers locally sourced New American fare and cocktails in a rustic-chic gastropub setting. The menus are designed for sharing and feature influences from both Northern and Southern neighbors of Covington. The establishment highlights local craft beers, cider, sodas, wine, and cocktails on draft.
Amazing vibe at the place! Grabbed a late lunch between stops on the B-Line (NKY Bourbon Trail) and it did not disappoint!!!! The atrium is amazing but the quaint patio is even more so! We had it to ourselves this afternoon and our waitress was amazing with her drink and food recommendations. The Liquid Knowledge was amazing and the Tater Tots were unique- I’ve never experienced anything like them. Crispy but soft flaky layers with crunch in between the inner layers? Crazy good!

Alright, let's dive into the amazing world of Coppin's restaurant and bar. This place is a gem, and here's why: First off, let me talk about Chris, the bar tender extraordinaire. This guy is a magician behind the bar. His drinks are so balanced and delicious, you'll question whether he's secretly an alchemist. I've had my fair share of espresso martinis, but Chris's is in a league of its own. It's like he's pouring liquid gold into your glass, and every sip is a symphony of flavors. The vibe at Coppin's is electric. It's the kind of place where you can kick back, relax, and let the good times roll. The decor is on point, the staff is friendly, and the energy is so good, you'll want to stay all night. But back to Chris—this guy is more than just a bar tender; he's an artist. His creativity with cocktails is off the charts, and he's got this uncanny ability to read what you need in a drink. I swear, he's like a long-lost brother, always there to make your night better. So, if you're looking for a place that combines great food, amazing drinks, and an atmosphere that's unbeatable, Coppin's is the spot. Come here with an open mind and a thirst for something special, and you won't be disappointed. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you, and you might just find a new best friend behind the bar.

Coppins was recommended to me by a friend. Walking in I was greeted by friendly people and sat in the atrium. The special was a 16 oz steak and brussel sprouts. Recommend arriving hungry. Excellent meal! The sweet potato tres leches cake and an Americano coffee finished off the meal. I will be back.

We would give 10 stars if we could!!! 🌟🌟🌟 We recently dined at Coppin’s Restaurant in Covington, KY and let’s just say — we left our taste buds in orbit! The atmosphere was classy yet cozy, the service was top-notch, and the food? OUT. OF. THIS. WORLD. 🌍💫 We were celebrating the annual visit of a dear friend from Germany 🇩🇪, but after a meal like this, we refuse to wait another year to return! Let’s break it down: 🥇 My mother-in-law — who has a very discerning palate — declared the salmon the BEST she’s ever had! 🥇 I devoured the scallops with… wait for it… LIMA BEANS. 🫘🔥 I would go to the ends of the earth for those lima beans — buttery, tender, and totally unforgettable. 🥇 And the grand finale: Strawberry Rhubarb Galette 🍓🥧 — tart, sweet, flaky perfection. A mic-drop moment for dessert! We left floating on a foodie cloud and already plotting our return. Thank you, Coppin’s, for turning an annual reunion into a culinary celebration! 🎉 #CoppinsCovington #CovingtonEats #GermanFriendsAndGoodFood #FoodieHeavenKY #ScallopLoversUnite #LimaBeanLove #RealEstateEats #ProvenHomeProsApproved #KentuckyBites #GreaterCincyDining #HouseHuntersAndHungryBellies

The service was excellent, food was average and very expensive for a simple pasta dish which I could make at home for a couple dollars. The chairs are huge and ceilings are extremely high. It felt like dining in a rotunda. They have a huge selection of Kentucky Bourbon and, if you are a fan, this might be a great place to try.

We stayed at Hotel Covington for three nights for honeymoon and ate twice at Coppin’s. The first time we had pork belly, coppin salad and steak, and second time we had tuna, coppin salad, salmon and potato tots. The food overall was very tasty and impressed my picky hubby :) We wanted to give special thanks to our servers, both were wonderful and extremely friendly! They heard about we were on honeymoon trip and offered free dessert and champion toast. Unfortunately we forgot first server’s name, the second time was Carina. Carina noticed that I don’t do alcohol so she provided same-taste, alcohol-free sparking drink to me, alongside with champion to my hubby, how thoughtful was that! Thank you!

I chose this place for my sisters birthday because I love the esthetics. When we got there we waited a little longer than usual for the waitress to come to our table. Not sure if she was a manager but a women named JAMIE took great care of us. She made my sisters birthday lunch the best. JAMIE deserves to be promoted for being so kind and attentive to us!!!! We will definitely go back but only if JAMIE is there lol

Located in Newport, the Prohibition Bourbon Bar is a small but well-stocked bar attached to the Newberry Brothers Coffee shop. With over 1,000 bottles of bourbon and rye whisky, as well as Scotch, Irish, Tennessee, and Japanese brands, it's a haven for whiskey enthusiasts. The owners Kim and Peter Newberry are known for their warm hospitality and extensive knowledge of bourbon.

Who would have known while traveling from out of state and making a simple reservation via text, my husband and I, along with another couple, would stumble upon this amazing bar and end up friends with the owners by the end of the evening. Pete and Kim were so very warm and welcoming. Their bottle collection of bourbon was beyond impressive. Pete’s vast knowledge of the history of the area and bourbon in general was outstanding. Definitely get the brownies. We had such an amazing evening, we returned the next night for a second visit, and had just as awesome of an experience. The servers were so warm and friendly as well. The charcuterie was fabulous. Do yourself a favor and try this place out!

If you enjoy bourbon and are in the Newport Kentucky area on a weekend, this place is a must. Heck, if you enjoy bourbon and aren't in the area, make a trip of it. Do get reservations as from what I gathered the bourbon bar is only open 10 hours a week (Friday and Saturday 6-11 PM). Peter is awesome and the collection he maintains and shares (at appropriate prices) is quite literally the best in the world. He can also share some bourbon history and bourbon is in his blood (even when he's not been drinking - ask him about it). What an experience.

By far one of the best bars in northern Kentucky. Everything from the bourbon selection to the friendliness of the employees and atmosphere were incredible. Fair prices on some of the rare bourbons and they had a shelf of bourbon bottles for sale as well. They have limited space and limited hours as well so be sure to call ahead for a reservation if you want to guarantee a table. This is a can't miss!

Prohibition Bourbon Bar is an outstanding place with a cool vibe boasting over 2800 whiskeys in the building (only room for ~800 on display). Pete and his wife are a friendly wealth of knowledge. Pete, a lawyer by day and owner/bartender by night, can recommend anything on the shelf based on what you like or what you want to try. Fair prices on some hard to find bourbons and a great place to go if you want to try a flight of something new or unique.

This establishment offers exceptional food and service, with friendly staff who provide excellent service. The prices are reasonable, particularly for their generously portioned pizza slices and impressively long breadsticks. The ambiance is consistently enjoyable, with skilled bartenders like Chris and Chase who can expertly craft a mezcal Old Fashioned. It's the perfect spot to unwind after a tiring day, as they provide a relaxing atmosphere accompanied by great music.
Order the buffalo chicken bread. This is the best thing I have ever had, and it tops it off by eating at the fountain right outside the restaurant. Praise Reese and Austin for this amazing dish! They were so nice. Would come again.

Ordered two slices for dine in and a half pepperoni and cheese to go. Poor execution all around. Slices probably reheated for 30 sec and came out room temp. We sat there for 10 min after take out pizza was done and had to go to counter to ask if it was ready. How did they not tell us our pizza was ready is so odd. When it came out - whopping 5 slices of pepperoni. Potential but execution and service sucked. Ps: Pizza was more like a 14” than 16” as can be seen by pic.

My husband and I visited this pizza place for dinner and had a great experience. We ordered a vegetarian pizza which had NY-style crispy crust and apt amount of cheese and turned out delicious. The outdoor seating area had a cozy ambience, making it a nice spot to hang out. The staff were friendly, and it was a pleasant surprise when they brought the pizza to our table despite it being self-service usually and even gave a complimentary cheesecake for my birthday - a lovely gesture!

We live up in Mason, so rarely if ever have a chance or need to go to Covington, but we stopped in here after a rare visit down there from Mason, OH, and halfway through the meal we were already trying to come up with more excuses to come to Covington more often. Then we agreed that Goodfellas pizza WAS the excuse. Absolutely delicious, exactly what I picture in my mind when I think of a great east coast-style pie, and it delivered on all counts. No notes. Can't wait to come back.

I have been all over the world and have tried the consensus "best" pizza in every city I've ever visited. Hundreds of slices around the world, from all over NY, all over Chicago, all over Europe and Asia. I've sacrificed my body, mind, and spirit, fluctuating dangerously in weight, body composition, and self-esteem for years to bring you the truth: Goodfellas in Covington, Kentucky makes nothing less than the BEST PIZZA IN THE WORLD. I don't care what, if anything, Dave Portnoy has to say on the subject. He isn't even qualified to hand me napkins as I continue my years-long crusade of truth and assess the world's great pizzas and pizzerias.

Braxton Brewing Company is a craft beer brewery that offers a wide range of year-round and seasonal brews, as well as house-roasted coffees. Their specialty beers include unique flavors like honey peach Kolsch and collaborations with Graeters Ice Cream. Additionally, the brewery has a second location at the Party Source called Braxton Labs, where they create even more distinctive beer varieties such as tart cherry beer and milkshake IPAs.
The fact that they not only have a bar on the ground level and an event area on the second floor, they also have the rooftop bar that is incredible! There's shaded areas, tables for sitting or standing, a great view, etc. This is a place you really need to check out. Plus, the beer was delicious!!!

First of all, the beer is stellar. They have something available for every taste. Second, the atmosphere is just as good as the beer. From the taproom downstairs to the loft and rooftop bars, the space is comfortable and enjoyable. Finally, you can order from Dewy's next door. They will bring a piping hot pizza right to you without ever having to leave the brewery, what's not to love about that? It's a real treat to visit Braxton for an evening out.

The Purple Poulet in Newport is phenomenal! Absolutely delicious and an experience worth raving about! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Special shout out to our amazing server Kristy. We started with the Fried Green Tomato Gratinée and Pork Belly Bruschetta—both packed with incredible flavor. Between courses, they served a raspberry sorbet palate cleanser, which was a delightful touch. For the main course, I had the fried chicken meal, and let me tell you—this was the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! Perfectly crunchy on the outside, juicy and flavorful on the inside. Dan had the panned veal pappardelle, while our friends enjoyed the Seafood Mélange and Swamp Critters Provençal—everyone was blown away by the flavors! If you’re a foodie, you HAVE to try this place!

This place has been on my radar for a while and we finally got the chance to try it out. Luckily we stopped in on the early side of dinner and we were able to have dinner at the bar since I didn't make a reservation. Typically I would pass on eating at the bar as I'm more of a side table or booth kind of person but I had been missing out on this one long enough. We were accomodated for two at the bar and the bartender Dillon was extremely welcoming and professional. He started by introducing himself and listing the drink specials which we ultimately decided to switch to after making choices off the menu we opted for the Peach Punch and The Cherry-Cello both or which were unique and enjoyable. I later got the Kentucky Mule I originally wanted and it was also spectacular. For our dinner choice we decided to start with the Buttermilk Biscuits as an appetizer, these biscuits with spicy peach preserves are a match and complete the sweet and savory combo nicely. We decided that out main course would be the Fried Chicken with green beans and potatoes and my fiancé had the salmon both were amazing and would be ranked in our top 3 fried chicken and salmon we've ever had. We will be back to get familiar with more of the menu and look forward to seeing what the specials may be the next time around. Give them a try you'll be glad you did.

For me this is the best fried chicken of any where that I’ve ever been. I do always tastes my husband’s dish. It was very good as it is each time, but I can’t pass up fried chicken when I’m here.

After many years of wanting to, we finally made it down to Covington to experience this delightful place. If you’ve read any of my other reviews, you know I bemoan the lack of intensity, awareness and service at almost every place I visit. The Purple Poulet is an exception. The cozy atmosphere, attentive service, delicious and creative food, left nothing wanting. One thing that stood out to me, was as we entered at opening time and were waiting at the door to be seated, the bartender saw us and said that the hostess would be right with us, showing me right away that the “it’s not my job” attitude wasn’t here. I highly recommend The Purple Poulet!

Might be the best fried chicken in the city. Better batter than Libby's and way better sides than The Eagle, just as nice as Tousey House. The green beans were 🔥😋. I got the 4-piece chicken dinner. Tried the sorbet and the corn bread and cinnamon bread with their homemade honey butter. The Cinnamon bread was heaven on a plate! The cornbread was the right balance of sweet and not sweet, fluffy, but not like cake. The Saratoga chips were good, as expected, but the queso dip was great, thick and chunky, tastes like Hankey pankey topping that you put on the little rye bread squares.

I had a really bad experience at Via Vite and felt completely disregarded as a guest. We arrived at 7:00 PM and were told there wouldn’t be a table available until 7:45 PM. That was fine—we agreed to wait. Since it was cold outside, we only stepped out for a quick 5-minute photo at Fountain Square and came right back to wait at the entrance. During that time, we watched multiple groups—who arrived after us and also didn’t have reservations—get seated before us. Some were parties of four or more, while we were just a party of three. It made no sense. We stood there for nearly 30 minutes with no updates, while at least six other groups were taken to their tables. We were the only ones left waiting. When I asked the host what was going on, her explanation was vague and dismissive. She claimed tables are assigned based on party size, but couldn’t explain why larger groups were seated before us. Another host jumped in and told me, with attitude, that we were “marked” for 7:45 and we’d be seated then—as if we hadn’t already been waiting patiently and silently the whole time. I asked to speak to a manager. I made it clear I understand waiting when you don’t have a reservation. What upset me was the inconsistency, the lack of transparency, and the feeling that guests were being picked and chosen at random—or based on who the staff preferred. I asked whether those other groups had reservations, and the manager’s answer was vague and felt made up on the spot. The manager claimed that the other group had a reservation, but they clearly waited 20 minutes like us. If she’s telling the true, I guess people should be aware that you might have to wait 20 mins even if you have a reservation. The only person who showed any professionalism was Abby, another host, who overheard the conversation and finally took us to a table and offered complimentary starters. Her kindness is the only reason I’m giving this review more than one star. But overall, the service at the front was unprofessional and unwelcoming. If you’re going to make people wait, at least be fair and transparent about it. This experience left a really bad impression.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Cincinnati. The food has always been delicious and we've enjoyed the atmosphere. This last time, I will say things felt a little cramped. It was the first time going since their renovation and our table at least was very close to two others. To the point we heard more of the others' conversation than our own. The food prices have gone up quite a bit as well. The crispy truffle gnocchi has always been our favorite but it's a bit pricey for what it is now. By far our favorite memory was the new years menu they did for 2021-2022. That will forever be the best time we spent there. If you're in downtown Cincinnati, I'd still recommend booking a nice dinner here.

Rhinegeist is an awesome brewery. Such a great place for a large group of people. We loved sitting on the rooftop and enjoyed the large selection of beers to choose from. The bartender was fabulous. Highly recommend!

Every time we come into the Cincy area, we make a stop here for some drinks, a view, and a chill spot to have great views. It’s so much nicer to drink from the tap rather than a can. We love the rooftop bar area. It’s is 21+ older. Inside is family/kid friendly. There are stairs to walk and also an elevator as well to access the main floor for patrons.

Rhinegeist Brewery tour was awesome! The public tour was $6 for a tour of the facility with a beverage token you get to choose from multiple options...The waiting room area is super nice you play bags and it's a great lounging area. It a pretty Nice gem in the Cincinnati area. 100% recommend!

LGBTQ friendly, so spacious and flooded with light, lots of game for everyone including kids, and a wonderful rooftop with beautiful views of the city on one side and greenery/trees on the other, you also can see murals from there. I loved that they support nonprofits and make it easy for people to donate. I think they have some food options but we didn’t eat/looked for food, I did see pretzels! Overall, a fun and cool place!

American restaurant
Restaurant
Otto's is a charming American bistro located in Covington, Kentucky, offering a refined and intimate dining experience. The restaurant is known for its delightful brunch featuring unique twists on classic dishes, such as the Eggs Benedict served on a cheesy bacon grit cake with country ham. The cozy interior adorned with local art and eclectic salt and pepper shakers creates a warm and inviting atmosphere for guests to enjoy their meal.
Loved the ambience, food and ofcourse the detailing of the interiors as well. It is a good blend of artsy, elevated, chic design with beautiful details! Perfect for a date night with great food options. Their fried green tomatoes is the best I’ve ever had! We had the berry salad and the pork chop and the pork chop was pretty good! Our server was Anya and she was wonderful and so was the rest of the staff, were friendly and accommodating and had the best recommendations!

Otto's elevates the dining experience with its inviting atmosphere and a menu bursting with fresh, flavorful dishes. The food is beautifully presented, featuring a variety of fresh and flavorful options. The Brie Berry Salad is a standout, with its mix of grapes, brie, and blueberries complemented by caramelized pecans. The Burrata dish, served with roasted cherry tomatoes and garlic, is rich and satisfying, especially with the toasted baguette. The Chicken Salad sandwich with candied pecans and mixed greens is a tasty choice, paired perfectly with sweet potato fries. The menu also includes creative specials like the Seared Salmon with Thai chili sauce. Eric’s exceptional service made the meal even more enjoyable. A must-visit!

We went here off of a recommendation from family. We can see why. It was comfort food with a New Orleans twist. I enjoyed the Cajun pasta dish. I love how the chicken was shredded, you could taste the freshness of the vegetables, and the sauce was gravy-like and creamy. My fiancé had the braised short ribs which was tender, it said it reminded him of home mama used to make. There was a hint of nostalgia in each dish. The fried green tomatoes a tasty appetizer to begin with. It is a quaint, little place. It can be a little loud. The staff seemed slightly overwhelmed and inattentive at times, but overall that doesn’t take away from the overall experience.

Went to Otto's for an early Halloween dinner. We were seated right away and the service was great throughout. They have a great bourbon and beer menu. The place has a great atmosphere. Everything we had was terrific. The cornbread, flatbread , and tomato soup were all fantastic. The short ribs were split up for us and were so tender and delicious. The veggies, mashed potatoes, and the gravy were amazing. Loved our time there.

Chat GPT had directed us here on Saturday the 4th. The food was great! My son and I each had the Salmon with Sweet Potato fries. We had both flown in from 2 different states for a couple of attractions. After the Salmon we finished off a huge slice of Carrot Cake. The best I have ever had. Annie M was very attentive, kind and had a very happy face. For everyone, actually. I just wanted to say how pleased and surprised we were with how good everything was. And I also wanted to compliment Annie M.

Otto’s has been a Covington staple since 2003, and it’s easy to see why. I had the filet, cooked perfectly and elevated by an incredible blue cheese sauce that tied everything together. My wife’s sea scallops were buttery, fresh, and seared to perfection. The service was friendly, the atmosphere warm and welcoming — the kind of classic spot that’s been doing things right for over 20 years. We’ll definitely be back.

I came here for lunch on a Sunday, likely not the best time in terms of service, but we were served relatively quickly given the time, and the food was delicious. I joined the clean plate club. Bathrooms are one seaters; there's a big one upstairs.

Known for its laid-back vibe, excellent service, and delicious food, Amerasia is a popular spot in Northern Kentucky.

Excellent food, great table service and the food came out super fast. The sesame chicken level 3 was perfect. Level 4 is where the heat really begins. The apps are fantastic as well. The pork egg roll and dumplings were delicious. Definitely will be returning.

4 of us ate here on a Friday evening while cycle touring. We all had appetizers, drinks, and entrees. Though not expensive or “fine dining”, all of us agreed that this is an exceptionally good and well-balanced restaurant. One of the best, and cycle touring has given us the full range. All staff cheerful, helpful, well-informed, and handoff well. Perfectly seasoned, delicious, and healthy meals. Very interesting decor, lively and happy patrons, background music well chosen and at right volume for conversation. Highly recommended!

I had a fun and unexpected experience walking past Kungfood on my way to another restaurant but was drawn in by its clever and overtly Asian pop-culture vibe. The eclectic interior draws from all kinds of Asian cinema and cultural references, making it visually fascinating. The shotgun-style space is cozy, with the bar and dining area up front, the kitchen in the middle, and a quirky back section with restrooms, a small shop selling drinks and knickknacks, and another bar where you pick up takeout. I noticed four tables pushed together in the back and asked a server about them—they turned out to be Mahjong tables! I’m not sure if they host game nights or if the owners just love Mahjong, but it adds to the charm. The food was delicious. You can stick with American-style Chinese favorites or venture into more authentic dishes—many of which have a Taiwanese influence, as the owners are from Taiwan. Overall, it’s a wonderful little place I plan to revisit, especially to bring friends who haven’t experienced Taiwan or who would appreciate the colorful, graphic eye candy. I’d also love to see what it’s like here at night!

Unfortunately, I cannot review this place highly. I have tried both dine in and carry out. The portions are laughably small on the carryout side, especially with the way the economy is right now. $12.99 here, and I could go walk to Bridges right down the street which will give me a ton of food for a similar price, not to mention a variety in what I receive. The atmosphere here is amazing - one of the most interesting looking restaurants I've been to in a long time. Unfortunately, the reality is that the food simply does not match the atmosphere. The portions you receive for carry out should be about 2x where it is right now to be worth the squeeze. Outside of portions, the food itself is... okay at best. Less flavorful than your traditional hole-in-the-wall carryout joint, too. I would recommend finding one of those styles of restaurants and avoiding this one altogether based on the price tag. The amount of time waited for carry out was also high. All that said, this is maybe my biggest disappointment when it comes to eating in Covington. Especially with my personality and interests, this seems like it would be a perfect place to eat and grab a quick lunch. Unfortunately, the atmosphere is far outclasses the food -- and let's not forget that the food is THE most important aspect of ANY place to eat, especially in this economy.

I got chicken and mixed vegetables and the big Bertha egg roll, the egg roll was tasty but the veggie version was very one note and tasted mostly of cabbage. It would be nice if they modified the mix with some different things like shredded carrots or something. Everything was very tasty and it was a nice bar with a very neat atmosphere

Tried this place for the first time last night for date night. My girlfriend had been here before and enjoyed it, so we decided to give it a shot. We arrived around 8 PM on a busy Saturday night. They took our name and quoted a 30-minute wait, which wasn’t a problem—we grabbed a drink at a nearby bar while we waited. When our table was ready, we were seated in an overflow dining area next door. The decor and ambiance were similar to the main restaurant, so no complaints there. Service started off fine but declined pretty quickly. There were about seven tables in our section, plus a bar area. One of the tables was a large group, but they were already finished eating when we walked in and left shortly after. So not a lot of folks on our side. We ordered drinks, chips and queso, and our entrées. The drinks came out quickly and were good, and the chips and queso followed soon after. The queso itself was just okay—nothing memorable, but a decent snack while waiting for our main dishes. For my meal, I ordered a taco flight with the Plain Jane, the Happy Pappy, and the Filthy Fajita. The Plain Jane was the best of the three, but still nothing special. The Happy Pappy was just okay—the carnitas were a bit dry. The Filthy Fajita, however, was straight-up bad. The steak was so tough I had to spit it out, and I ended up removing it from the taco entirely. On top of that, I could tell my tacos had been sitting for a while based on how the queso had hardened—definitely not ideal. My girlfriend ordered the Birria Ramen (which we heard is being removed from the menu soon) and the Becky taco. The ramen was pretty good—not the best birria we’ve had, but it got the job done. Thankfully, she had a better taco experience than I did—she really enjoyed The Becky. The wait for our food was long, but given how busy they were (and the time needed to cook the ramen), it was somewhat understandable. What wasn’t understandable was how long it took to get our check once we finished eating. By this point, the room had mostly emptied out, but despite our server clearly seeing that we were done, we sat for what felt like forever waiting to pay. It felt like we were on their time, which was frustrating. All in all, this place won’t be getting a return visit from me. The service was subpar, and the food wasn’t worth the $80 tab. For that price, I know we could have had a much better meal—and experience—somewhere else.

Awesome food and good service but...........if I order a drink and you bring me the wrong drink why am I paying for both!!! Ordered a pineapple margarita without jalapenos and was brought the one with jalapenos. I was just going to suck it up, but the manager came with a new one and said there was a mistake. The server even came and said she took someone else's drink. No big deal but was still charged for three drinks. Wow just wow! I have never been charged for a servers mistake before. Had I noticed this at the restaurant I would have disputed it right then and there. Bad bad business!

This is a place I went to for the first time because I saw a video online with their Crispy Chicken Burrito and I had to try it. While the one in the video had a bit more filling, it was still delicious and I would 100% recommend you to come here and try their delicious food!! The agave BBQ jam was ridiculous and I would probably enjoy anything with this stuff on top of it!! If you’re around any of their locations, I say give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!!

Anchor Grill is a classic American diner in Covington that has been serving up familiar comfort food for over 75 years. Despite its unassuming appearance, this beloved institution is known for its late-night service and iconic steamboat mural outside. The restaurant's retro decor, including wood paneling and black leather booths, adds to its nostalgic charm. Notably, Anchor Grill has been recognized by Food & Wine for serving some of the best diner-style comfort food in the country.
My husband and I love quirky restaurants - the quirkier the better - and Anchor Grill fits the bill. This restaurant, I suspect, looks like it did 50 years ago. Service was excellent and our server started the band box for us. I had the veggie omelette, rye toast, and hash browns and my hubby had scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, and rye toast. Everything was delicious, but those hash browns were the star of the meal. Next time I am in the Cincinnati area, I will be having breakfast at Anchor Grill and I will be having a double order of the hash browns.

Went with a group of friends for the evening happy hour to try a new place. We went to cash out, no itemized receipts were given to anyone in our group, then when we all cashed out and tipped, someone in the group asked for an itemized receipt, they said there was a “service charge.” When they sat the itemized down, they informed us it was an auto-gratuity for having a group over six and changed the story. Our bartenders didn’t inform us that they charged an auto-gratuity for groups larger than six ahead of time. Keep in mind, we poured our own waters when we got there, we had no service as we went to the bar to order drinks, had no server, they dropped food off and that was it. To ask for a tip after not providing an itemized, then do an auto-gratuity on top of that seems a little greedy, should be said up front.

My wife and I recently moved to Northern Kentucky and were absolutely thrilled to discover The Baker's Table in Newport, Kentucky! From the moment we walked in, Rachel, Jake, and the entire staff made us feel incredibly welcome and right at home. It's fantastic to find such a wonderful farm-to-table restaurant in our new area. We opted for the Chef's Tasting Menu with the Non-Alcoholic Drink pairing, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Each dish was a unique work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. One of the mocktails, featuring Carrot and Chrysanthemum, was so refreshing and delicious we joked about wanting a whole pitcher to enjoy on our deck at home! While every course was outstanding, the lamb ragu was a definite highlight. The flavors and textures were phenomenal, and the inclusion of what they called "lamb bacon" was truly one of the most delicious things I've tasted in a long time! What we also appreciated was that despite the high quality of the dining experience, the atmosphere was relaxed and unpretentious. Even the background music had songs that made us smile and added an easy-going vibe. The intimate setting made us feel connected rather than lost in a large, bustling space. The staff was attentive and genuinely responsive to our needs. It's clear that The Baker's Table is a business that prioritizes sustainable practices and truly cares about the quality of their ingredients and the people they serve. We loved hearing the stories behind the beverages and the inspiration for each dish, and the fact that the menu changes monthly based on seasonal availability is something we greatly appreciate. Our first experience at The Baker's Table was truly memorable, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly, highly recommended!

The attention to detail in every corner of the restaurant added to the intimate, warm atmosphere that made the evening so special. The food was truly exceptional! Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with fresh flavors and thoughtful combinations. Our guests were raving about every course, and I honestly don’t think there was a bite left on anyone’s plate! What made the night even more memorable was the impeccable service. The team at The Baker's Table went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. From assisting with our unique requests to making sure everyone was taken care of without skipping a beat, we were truly impressed.

Didn't pat for it, so I can not speak on the price, but everything off the menu was good. Drinks were good, too. Easy and quick service. The salmon and beet seems like a weird combination but was surprisingly good. The gnocchi has the best texture. Some of the best gnocchi I've had**. Very light. Steak was good, although I have had better. [Medium Rare] The pumpkin cheesecake was also delicious. Good balance of flavor and not being heavy consideriflng what it is.

Truly a Gem , one of the best Restaurant and Cocktail bar I ever been in my Whole Life !! Is an Experience, the menu itself change every month or two and this is really something so special that make the local farm and products get known around Kentucky or Oahio !! It's a must if never been there ! Let the Sommelier or the Barman/Mixologist guide you through one of the best Wine pairing of your life !! Still the best thing about this place as the name tells you is their Bread ! Homemade and home baked bread, something that not even in Italy you can get anymore !!! Something so unique and special that people need to make the que or line outside to try ! Believe me ! All the wine pairing were perfectly match and another amazing thing we're the Amari ! After a good 4/5 meal dishes, need to have a good Amaro and their selection in Italian Amari were Awesome !!! Let Jake guide you through the end of the meal with his amazing advise and recommendations !! A truly blessing to have been there two or three times so far !! I love their sorbet with olive oil!!! Incredible experience and also the prices were outstanding for the quality offered. ! Be back for sure ! Thank you David !!!

Our server Jasmine, bartender Jake, and sommelier Ryan, as well as the rest of the staff, worked seamlessly together to provide a really great experience. The owner Dave came out to introduce himself- it’s always a good sign when the owner gets his hands dirty (metaphorically) and works with the staff to do what needs to be done. Absolutely cannot wait to come back and try a whole new round of dishes next season!

The Blind Pig is a popular downtown sports bar in Cincinnati, Ohio, known for its modern speakeasy vibe and rooftop patio with stunning views of the city. It's conveniently located within walking distance of Great American Ball Park and Paul Brown Stadium, making it a great spot for pregame gatherings. The bar offers a variety of local craft beers and pub grub at affordable prices. With 10 TVs, it's an ideal place to catch athletic action while enjoying their daily drink specials.
This is a great place for any pregame fun. You go up the stairs to get to it. There are 3 separate areas, an outside rooftop area, the main bar (with a few tables) and on down the hallway is a quieter second bar with more tables. This food is wonderful, made fresh and at a very reasonable price. There is not any tables service, waiters or waitresses, you have to order your food at the bar. They will then give you a number sign for your table, and they then bring your food to your table. The outdoor seating area had wonderful views of the city and adds to the overall atmosphere.

Had a rough day at work so went with coworkers to grab a drink and decompress. Bartender was very funny. We spent some time trying to figure out how the boat racing on tv worked. Overall a great experience and look forward to popping in every now and then for a drink.

We went during dinner time because the menu looked tasty and affordable while having a roof to seating option. When we arrived it took us a while to find an actual employee once we did we were instructed that it was bar service only so we ordered our food and went out and said on the outdoor seating area. In some area was extremely loud and would not be suitable for a family to eat dinner. The outdoor seating area did have music playing and while not extremely loud it was extremely vulgar. In fairness the food was good and at no point did I find any advertising that would suggest they consider themselves a family-friendly place.

We are from out of town they said they was open late and we don’t have one back home so we thought we would give it a try. I got the Big Pig Burger it was a microwaves burger or a burger that had been sitting in water forever. It was gross McDonald’s would have been better. I was expecting a nice grilled burger with pulled pork on top. The fries were clearly hours old but I don’t send food back. We also ordered wings and for $2 a wing I was expecting amazing things yeah that’s a big no sauce was just thrown on top not tossed and they also have been sitting for hours. This place is open til 2 we got food at 8 I would go back for a drink but I would never eat there again. I have it a 2 stars because service was great and fast but it was clearly fast because the food had been ready and waiting

They always have a good selection of beers on tap. The outdoor patio is great when the weather is nice. They have bar food that is done very well, but it's definitely not a fine dining experience. It's a great place to meet up for a beer or drink.

An interesting place to have dinner. We went because of a review on empanadas, however that wasn't on the menu anymore. I had the chicken sandwich. He was very good with the buffalo sauce and topped with bacon. I also had the fried pickles. They were also very good. They were chips and not speers. Nice crisp breading on them. I would definitely go back

Boyfriend and I stopped for a drink after the Casino while we stopped in Cinci over night in a road trip home. Loved the vibe and atmosphere of the bar, and drinks were good! Only "complaint" is that our bartender was definitely intoxicated and kept forgetting to get us our tab to pay so we could get back to our hotel room for the night. She was super friendly and made great conversation, so our only note is that we mentioned we wanted to get back to our dogs at the hotel. We do definitely plan on coming back in October for a football game, and hope to see our same bartender!

Late afternoon and I dropped in for a glass of a rather nice white wine. They have tables out front on Main Street, and a little covered patio in the back with four tables.

The Knowledge Bar and Social Room is a newly opened upscale lounge with a cool bar in the middle, offering both bar and table seating options. It features a spacious cocktail bar with a plush lounge area known as the social room. The ambiance is cozy and romantic, making it great for a cocktail date night, especially with live music on certain nights. The menu offers a stylish selection of specialty cocktails and an extensive whiskey collection. Additionally, the staff provides excellent service and are knowledgeable and friendly.
Atmosphere 9/10 Nice upscale lounge atmosphere with a cool bar in the middle. Bar and table seating options. Quiet music completes the vibe for a relaxing cocktail Drinks 10/10 Stylish menu, great whiskey selection. When in Kentucky, you need to try Bourbon based cocktails. Perfect Manhattan was on point. Can recommend Boone County Rye. Whiskey sour was great too - perfect egg white foam. Great presentation too. Coaster game is strong - gives the drink an additional flair Service 7/10 Nice bartenders. They didn’t serve water (without asking) though, which an upscale bar should do IMO. There was also no reception, to explain if anything is reserved or free to seat. Prices are on higher end for Kentucky.

We strolled in here after noticing it coming out of the Hannaford, hadn’t heard anything about it and honestly I’m glad we found it. The ambiance is so cozy and romantic, definitely great for a cocktail date night. They had live music and we went in on a Wednesday which was superb! Service was great, we were checked in on consistently, they were all very knowledgeable and friendly. Kelsey in particular spent so much time answering questions and explaining the concept of the bar, we really felt like we could sit and sip for hours. I ended up having one of her creations, it was a unique collage of flavors that blended so seamlessly. Can’t wait to go back and taste more of the menu and maybe order one of the charcuteries they make at the bar.

Newly opened (mid-March), very nice and spacious cocktail bar with a huge, plush lounge area they call the social room. Great specialty cocktails plus the menu is very helpful: it lists all their spirits by type plus suggests the most popular cocktails or mixers for them. It's inside a new hotel called North that is affiliated with the Hotel Covington (on the same block).

The cocktail menu is incredibly extensive. There is a smaller seasonal/specialty menu at the front of the booklet. As you keep looking, you’ll see their spirits list. Underneath each list is a menu of classic cocktails using that spirit. Our bartender was so friendly, helpful, and not pretentious about offering clarification which was very welcoming. There’s definitely an atmosphere of curiosity and experimentation, and they’re willing to mix up the spirit on a classic cocktail as evidenced by our party ordering a Mezcal Last Word (which was great!). We were given complimentary tapas with our cocktails and honestly I’m still craving those fenugreek crackers.

Covington Yard is a unique outdoor venue located in downtown Covington, offering a backyard party experience with artificial turf, outdoor TVs, and yard games. The venue features multiple bars, fast-casual eateries, and picnic-style tables set up in shipping containers. It's an all-ages space serving ice-cold beer, cocktails, wine, and their custom brew, Yard Lager.
Multiple bar set ups and food vendor options that appear to rotate in and out. Drinks in the indoor bar are just a little bit more than some competitors in the area but not significantly so. Lots of tvs and seating, with different arrangements to accommodate all sorts of group sizes and desired seating arrangements. While I'm not a nicotine user I did think the dip pouch cups were clever and believe more outdoor venues should install them.

We recently hosted a live show for Fitz & Whit, Andrew Whitworth and Ryan Fitzpatrick’s podcast, at Covington Yard in Cincinnati ahead of the Bengals Thursday Night Football game — and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Tori and her team were absolutely incredible. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure every detail was handled flawlessly. The event could not have been easier to execute thanks to Tori’s professionalism, communication, and leadership. She truly made it seamless while delivering everything at such a high level. The venue itself was the perfect space for hosting an event like ours — spacious, well-organized, and full of character. Covington Yard naturally creates such a great vibe and fun ambiance that made the night feel energetic, welcoming, and memorable for everyone who attended. The staff at Covington Yard were equally outstanding — helpful, kind, professional, and proactive every step of the way. Their attention to detail and hospitality made the night feel effortless, and Andrew and Ryan were overjoyed with how perfectly everything came together. I would recommend Covington Yard and working with Tori to anyone and everyone. It’s such a special venue with an incredible team behind it, and I truly hope the Bengals and others continue to collaborate with them in the future.

We LOVE this place. The bartender was just the best! What a talent! While we didn't order a coffee, we witnessed her artistry for another customer. Just amazing. We enjoyed a Snowfall Spritz and an old fashion: both delicious! The place is something to experience. Personal touches everywhere! Take a flip through the sketch books, talk with local regulars, and chat with the knowledgeable bartender....so incredibly enjoyable! Thanks for adding to our anniversary celebration!

This used to be a vibrant, queer friendly show bar that my fiancée and I absolutely loved. We regularly attended creative, inclusive shows organized by talented drag performers like Tara and Montana. These events showcased diverse local talent and offered a truly unique experience that felt celebratory and community centered. After moving out of the area, we recently returned with high hopes, but sadly the vibe has completely changed. The once innovative drag shows have been replaced with generic, uninspired burlesque performances that lean heavily into the male gaze. The lineup now seems to primarily feature slim, white, cis performers, with little to no representation of BIPOC, plus size, or visibly LGBTQ+ individuals. The diversity and heart that once made this place special is sorely lacking. The bar service was equally underwhelming. Our bartender, Morgan, served weak, overly iced drinks and came across as disinterested and even mildly annoyed to be engaging with us. Her demeanor felt condescending, marked by blank stares and sizing up glances that made us feel unwelcome. It's especially disappointing to receive that kind of energy from someone working in what was once a more inclusive space. We offered to Venmo her $30 in exchange for $20 in singles to tip the cast - something we’ve done at many venues without issue. She declined (which is her prerogative), but followed it up with a passive-aggressive lecture about “remembering to bring cash to tip.” While the point isn’t wrong, the tone was unnecessarily smug, especially considering we were trying to support the performers and staff more generously. And simultaneously tip for for her troubles of exchanging her bar tips. This used to be a place where the community came together to celebrate queer artistry. Now, it feels more like a watered down, sanitized version of what it once was... with poor service and diminished inclusivity. We left disappointed, and honestly, a bit disheartened. We hope the owners consider returning to their roots and bringing back the kind of diverse, affirming, and creative programming that made this venue such a special space for the NKY community.

Toured at second sight today as part of a bourbon road trip (9 distilleries in 4 days). Without giving much away it was an entertaining journey that started with 2 friends and an idea that has blossomed into a rags to hopefully one day riches story. Everything we tried there; from the samples on tour to the craft cocktails at their bar was amazing. Go to see their vision on a craft distillery, it was our best decision today and will be yours too.

Sick views of the city at night. This is the place to go to after a Reds game, the ground level of the banks is quite collegey. Just get there pronto because they'll limit capacity, gotta comply to fire codes. Our server was great and had a splendid demeanor. Made sure to come around even when it was slammed.

Went there last night at 5:00. After walking off the elevator and looking around, we were very impressed. That quickly changed. We weren’t sure where to order. My husband ran into the waitress and she said she would wait on us if we were going to order food. We sat at one of the bar type areas overlooking the Reds stadium and the river. There was bird poop everywhere. After waiting 15 minutes, my husband went to the bar to order. No one was friendly at the bar. His beer was warm and my drink came without a straw. He ran into the waitress again who said she would come over to take our order. After 15 more min, she finally came over. She didn’t say anything except are you ready to order. Luckily we had found a menu sitting around. We ordered the hot honey flatbread. She brought it over 10min later. It was a joke for $16 and not hot. It had no flavor at all. The views were awesome but we will not be returning. This place has no management.

This place has a beautiful view. The flat beard was awesome. The drinks fell short at first as the bar staff wanted to do a twist on the signature AC ICED TEA. Since there are only 3 ingredients, this girl wasn't impressed. Stick to the ingredients and the customer will be happy. Additionally, the servers on the floor weren't very personable. They stayed huddled up most of the time. I would like to return to give this rooftop gem another try. Maybe weekends are better here but a midweek after work drink fell short.

Really nice chill spot to sip on a bourbon or have a flight of them. The selection still needs to expand but that comes with time. What they do have are good solid bourbons and great options to introduce a friend to the world of bourbon. Doesn't matter if you sit inside or outside, the ambiance and atmosphere is nice and relaxing. Not too cluttered like some bars get. Service was fast and friendly and I would definitely stop in again.

We couldn't have chosen a better venue to celebrate my sister! Everyone was so pleasant and accommodating, from the owners to the bartenders. We had a large party and the bartenders did a fantastic job keeping up. Not to mention they were incredibly kind! The venue itself was perfect, as well. We will be back!

Nice atmosphere, enjoyable outdoor seating. Beer prices however, that's another story. $6.50 for garage beer is excessive to say the least! You can buy an entire case for what 2 beers will cost you here. Beer prices alone, and mediocre food will keep me from going back unless for a private event.

I’ve been coming here for 5 years and should have left a review sooner but this is absolutely my favorite bar. They have a huge selection of bourbon, craft drinks, stuff in the fridge. The spinach artichoke dip is the best I’ve ever had but the buffalo dip, flatbreads, and hanky pankies are also incredible. Every friend I take here LOVES it and wants to come back. Nice seating inside and outside and very cute. Bartenders are always suuuuper friendly. Nice bathrooms. Charlie even opened early for the UC Xavier game a few weeks back when I asked!! I’m so grateful to this bar for hosting so many get togethers and being a great space for me to write my dissertation during the week. Their Moscow mule will always be my fave. Ok I’ll stop gushing now.

This is my 2nd time visiting 3 Spirits and its always a nice laid back visit. We usually sit outside but moved inside due to rain and it was just as fun. We got the hanky pankys, artichoke dip, and flatbread. I could have eaten two of bowls of the hanky panky dip it was really good. This is not a place for dinner but it is good for snacks because you come here for the COCKTAILS! The cocktails were out of this world some of the best we have had in a very long time. Loved the mule so much I went to the store the next day to make them myself, still better when someone else makes them. Shoutout to Daniel for his mixology skills and making us feel welcome. Check it out, its locally owned which makes it all the more better to support

Lovely historical area. We walked around and felt completely safe. The glockenspiel tower was a nice bonus even though it was only built in 1979. The Goose girl fountain in the median is also a nice stop. The snow today was perfect for reminding us of Germany.😊

We had a nice walk over to the German village and really appreciated the eclectic array of restaurants and old buildings and architecture.

I’d give this place 0 stars if I could. Tonight is some kind of bar crawl in Newport, so I wanted to try someplace I’ve never been to before, that was featured. My mom and I walk in at around 4:45 pm and sit at the bar. It’s not busy at all, 5 other customers in there besides my mom and I. Mom and I sit for 10 minutes, actively looking at drink menus and the selection and trying to get the bartender’s attention. She didn’t acknowledge us as we walked in, we sat for 10 minutes while she was just standing around right in front of us. So I tell my mom “Let’s just leave, we can be acknowledged and served elsewhere”. So we get up to go, THEN she acknowledges us and my mom said “oh, shes just really thirsty, we have to leave” and a PATRON yelled behind us, very sarcastically, “Sorry for the wait”. Rude patrons go to a rude establishment, I suppose. Very unimpressed.
Lindsey C — Google review
I, mother, as stated in Lindsey Carmack’s review also rate this place a “0”. First off, the ogle that we received upon entering was disturbing, as she continued to talk/listen about drinks to/from the other customers, old fashions, etc. was rude. She was not talking much just listening and continued listening as we walked out. I didn’t need a drink menu as I knew exactly what I wanted. The fact that you want to argue over the time and send footage reflects on just exactly how this place is run, not in a customers favor. You would rather argue than treat customers with respect and acknowledgement. The place was not packed and hasn’t been since you’ve taken over and with this sort of customer service and backlash, I don’t foresee a line waiting outside to get in. Being an older person, growing up where respect and kindness was a general rule, something that is fading fast in the world, especially at JJH, can suggest that without customers there is no business and no business means, no work, no money, closed doors. The funny thing about this all is we went to another establishment around the corner, didn’t mention the name and the bartender and a few customers knew exactly where we had just come from and we all had a grand laugh and a cheers to JJH. So whether it’s 10 minutes or 3 minutes doesn’t matter, what matters is you LOST 2 big Happy Hour drinkers that spend allot of $. I will say, I would have given you a 2nd chance but with the fact of you wanting to argue and send footage to prove your point on this playground is rude and disrespectful.

New Riff is doing it right. To find a good bourbon it takes a good mash bill . To make a great bourbon flavor must accompany story. It is a great albeit short history but it does have some history with it . The staff was great along with our tour guide Dan. You are where I would love to be in a couple years. This Magnificent Bastard was pleased. Thank you all and may you have continued success. MB Joey

My first “bourbon tour” and not even in Bardstown, Kentucky, considering we live in Louisville so Bardstown is closer to us and there are tons of distilleries in Louisville. Part of the reason we chose this tour is that they make an amazing gin here which is unusual for bourbon makers. One of the best gins I’ve ever had. The surprise of the trip was the single mob whiskey, which impressed my husband, the experienced , bourbon, drinker, and me, the novice bourbon drinker. The tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable and tons of fun. Lots of really interesting information and historical tidbits. There were only four patients on this tour, so we really felt like we had a VIP experience. Nice gift shop with all kinds of bourbon themed treats.

Let me start off by saying I am not a big bourbon person. Every good bar does need to have a stock of good liquor. I met Dan right as I entered the door. I explained my situation and he drafted a plan for me. He had me go to the 3rd floor and try a sampling. Before leaving, I looked over downstairs and it was a great setup. Outside their flagship Bourbon whiskey and Rye, they have Gin too. I was there for the Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey, so I stuck to that. I went to the third floor to what I would classify as the Executive Boardroom. The bar in front was immaculate and the barkeep was extremely helpful. Even though I was outside my element, I went with a testing of 3 of their bourbons. My 3 choices were their Flagship Bourbon Whiskey, Straight Rye Whiskey and the 8 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Out of the 3, to my uneducated taste buds was the 8 Year Old Bourbon. That was the smoothest that I had. I will now have a bottle of that on the top shelf of my home bar. Check out the store as there is a lot of awesome stuff to take home. I got a magnet (and some Bourbon of course), but I wanted so much more . . . like the ice cream 🍦 Make sure to take something home with you to share with family and friends as they have miniature bottles for gifting. I should have gotten a hat, but I had gotten one earlier and didn’t want to explain to the wife why I got another hat 🤣 Highly recommend this for any fan of Bourbon as a family member also loved the Bourbon here. I got her a mini-bottle and she immediately opened it in a tumbler with ice.

Love this place on certain Sat nights when Moonshine Drive, (a GREAT Blue Grass group), is there. They play out in the large sheltered patio area. The first time we went for dinner to hear the group, the food was decent. This time, it was over an hour before we learned they lost our ticket, then when we finally got our meals, only the salad was better than mediocre. If Moonshine Drive hadn't been playing, we would have left. The only reason I would consider making the trip again is to enjoy the music. Maybe if the owner had been there, food and service might have been better. We'll see. In the meantime, you'd better hang on to Moonshine Drive!

Arrived in Cincinnati early and the hotel room wasn’t ready. Found this nice little hole in the wall bar and restaurant. Opened up into a very interesting dining experience. I tried 2 different IPA’s which were great. For dinner I had the delicious wings and the meatballs and another beer. When I ordered my 4th beer I asked what the percentage was of this particular beer, at which point the waitress made a rude comment “well that’s going to be your last one” my friends and I laughed assuming her dry sense of humour must be a her “thing”. Nope, she was dead serious, yet continued serving my two coworkers drinks. Shelby would be better served washing dishes or bussing tables until she can understand how her position affects the customers experience and further patronage.

I really love the vibe and the coconut latte and breakfast sandwiches are super great!! My only complaint is the efficiency of the staff and flow of everything really. I think a lot of coffee shops try not to get caught up in the fast food coffee shop scheme which at times can be great and more authentic of a structure , but I find that that baristas dropping what they’re doing to have a long, full on conversation with each other while not continuously moving as the line is out the door isn’t quite efficient either. While the post it note ordering tickets that the cashier uses looks cute, having to put the order in the POS andddd write the order on the note isn’t quite efficient either. It looks to really stress every cashier staff I interact with greatly in fact. I think I like what they’re going for, and there’s a reason this place is as popular as it is…it’s nice! I just find myself always quite miserable waiting and watching the flow of things. I definitely think proper streamlining and flow of ordering to customer pick up can be greatly improved and I’m sure other customers waiting would agree.

Had heard about the Analog Bar from both friends and co-workers. It came highly recommended. You should make reservations as there are only 7 seats. The concept is they make drinks both coffee and otherwise ( think tea and mocktails). They have about 6 or 7 drinks on the menu and every 6 weeks they change the theme. When we went the theme was art. So cool. Both Cassidy and Shane served us during our hour there. I had the Double Elvis which was a double expresso with honey, peanut butter and banana chips. Pretty amazing. The experience lasts an hour and is totally worth it. It has repeatability since they change the menu and theme so often. Highly recommend. Carabello Coffee is also a pretty large coffee house with 2 large seating areas. There were a lot of people there working on their laptops or just hanging out. The coffee is excellent (I also had a pour over). They have pastries as well.

Garbologist was a terrific production. It was my first time and this theatre and I will be going again. It was easy to get into and park. Very comfortable and intimate yet a good sized venue. Seats were comfortable and acoustics were good. Drinks were affordable

My first time at the theatre was to see Jajas African Hair Braiding play and it was great. The staff welcoming everyone was nice and the cast did a great job. The theatre is a little small but it can fit just enough people. Cant wait to go back again for another event.

We managed to get tickets for Hands on a Hardbody through a local veteran's ticket group. If not for that we probably would have never visited the Ensembe Theatre. It was a great experience and location right in the heart of downtown. Thank you to the Ensemble Theatre for donating the tickets and allowing us to check out an amazing show!

First time patron and anticipating to be a long time patron. The location is fantastic for folks wanting to have a bite to eat before or after the show. A reasonably priced parking garage is directly across the street. The service from the box office and the bar was top notch. My husband and I enjoyed it so much we immediately bought tickets for other shows. Highly recommended!

Lytle Park is a charming 2.3-acre green space featuring picturesque walkways, flower beds, and trees. Visitors can also admire a bronze statue of Abraham Lincoln within the park. For those seeking a delightful evening out, Vista at Lytle Park offers a rooftop bar and event venue with stunning views overlooking the park and the city. Additionally, Top of the Park at The Phelps provides a stylish setting for enjoying drinks and small bites with a panoramic view of the Downtown District.
We have not been to this park since it was rebuilt. I must say they did a wonderful job making a beautiful park worthy of the historic Lytle area.

Saw this place on tick tock. It was about they're brunch. I was looking for a new spot to try. This place totally disappointed in that area. It was gorgeous beautiful vibes decent staff. We had bacon Jerry instead of bacon. My sister could've played hockey with her biscuit. I had the lemon curd pancakes they were lovely.

Wonderful property, the hotel was clean, staff was extremely pleasant. The rooftop bar was wonderful, although cold during my stay. My complaint of our stay would be the awkward layout of the suite. The closest for clothing storage, and the bathroom can only be accessed by exiting the bedroom. Night use of the restroom was very inconvenient as well as dressing when you must leave the room, walk out and through the seating area each time. This was the Terrain 2 room suite, not sure if all are the same layout but this was very inconvenient. Expect to do a lot of tipping, from room service, ice needs, valet, cleaning... Just a lot of tipping. We would recommend this as a romantic, special occasion, long stay business, get away stay. The Lytle was AWESOME! 4 stars only because of the room layout.

Nice small city park known for its rare public statue of Abraham Lincoln without a beard. Pretty flower beds and great spot for an old fashion picnic. Features a child's play set and numerous benches to sit and relax. Close proximity to Taft Museum, arena and ballpark. Though there are public restrooms they seem to be permanently closed. A small jewel in the Queen City's crown.

If you have any stance other than hating local theatre, this place is fantastic. Small local productions that are really well done, immersive, original, and range from absurd to serious. Often a wonderful blend of all both.

Saw “Ada and the Engine” Saturday March 21, 2018. It was a wonderful cast! Great cozy theatre and the bar scene on the first floor was comfy and really brings you into the mood for some theatre. The tickets wee punch cards given to us at will call from buying online, very hip and cool, but not in the overly hipster kind of way. As a lover of the theatre and a high school thespian, it was great getting in touch with the arts here in Cincinnati. Perfect place to “Play”

There is literally always a production happening here. If it's not a mainstage production, it's an Underground production, or a festival, Serials, special event, special guest. They also offer a Welcome Wednesday experience every Wednesday of their mainstage shows where a set number of walkup tickets are free and reserved are only $5. Well worth trying out to see a show you've never heard of. This IS Cincinnati's theatrical playground!

Really loved the atmosphere! It really feels like an urban Theatre in the middle of this really up-and-coming area. They have a bar if you're looking to get a drink, but I would avoid it if you're actually going to see a performance. I went to see Calculus the Musical, and they did a great job (well worth the 15 dollar price of admission).

The Party Source is a massive liquor store in Kentucky, offering over 20,000 products including a wide range of exotic offerings such as moonshine, grappa, absinthe, and bourbon. The store also features a brewery where visitors can enjoy a pint and popcorn while making their selections. With 60,000 square feet of selling space and an extensive product selection, it's the perfect place to stock up for any special occasion. Customers praise the seamless service provided by Party Pro Kathy S.
I have never seen a warehouse size liquor store of this magnitude. It is overly stocked. From the miniature bottles to the humidor room in addition to cheese that's available for selection. The wine, the liquor, the beer you name it this place is well stocked. You have a multitude of the various types of liquors, i.e., Vodka, tequila, brandy whiskey bourbon. The bourbon because of the region alone is more than you will ever see anywhere. They have local breweries. They have national brands you name it. They have an abundance of alcohol for you. If I lived in this area, I would be in the store minimally twice a week. While I was there, I also had the opportunity to sample some cheese, some different wines along with some tequila. because of the size of the warehouse, I'm sure that's why the parking lot is also large as well. Although it is shared with a local brewery. There is still ample parking for both the local brewery and also for the Party Source.

If your just going in to pick up a 12 pack it's not the best or quickest location. But if you want to get blown away by selection and atmosphere go on in. Plenty of 'staff' around.

As their name implies, the Party Source is a one stop shop when you're planning a get together. They have all of the plates, cups, and napkins you need. And plenty of party favors and decorations. And as for libations- their selections on beer, wine, and liquor are unmatched! But since I'm 20+ years sober, none of that interests me anymore. Fortunately for me, the Party Source also carries a wide assortment of alcohol-free beverages, non-alcoholic brews, soft drinks, juices, and mixers. Its possible to even mix & match a 6 pack if you ever wanted to try different non-alcoholic brews. My curiosity also carried me into their walk-in humidor while I was there. The guys in there gave me some very helpful advice and suggestions for the cigars that I purchased. I know I'm leaving out plenty but the only way to get a complete idea about the Party Source is to go and experience it for yourself.

American Legacy Tours offers a range of guided tours that provide an in-depth look into the history and culture of Greater Cincinnati. Visitors can choose from various experiences, such as the Queen City Underground Tour, which delves into the historic OTR neighborhood and includes a journey through a 130-year-old tunnel. The Queen City Haunted Tour uncovers stories of paranormal activity and other intriguing tales from Cincinnati's past.
Enjoyed the Hidden Caverns Tour hosted by Miranda. The tour includes many interesting history and facts of Cincinnati, OTR, breweries and a walk through of underground tunnels where beer was brewed before mechanical refrigerating was available. Miranda was funny and well versed in knowledge of Cincinnati history, whales and chamber pots! And I enjoyed the free glass of beer at Northern Row after the tour.

If you’re even remotely interested in history, beer, or just having a great time, American Legacy Tour Company’s brewery tour is an absolute must-do in Cincinnati! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, fascinating, and a ton of fun. Our guide, Miranda, was the heart and soul of the tour — incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and passionate about Cincinnati’s brewing heritage. You can tell right away that she truly loves what she does. Every stop came alive through their storytelling — from the 19th-century brewing giants that put Cincinnati on the map, to the hidden underground tunnels that make you feel like you’re stepping back in time. Whether you’re a local or visiting from out of town, this tour will give you a whole new appreciation for Cincinnati. It’s not just about beer; it’s about community, craftsmanship, and the city’s incredible resilience. Highly recommend this experience — and if you can, ask for Miranda! You’ll walk away with a deeper love for the Queen City (and maybe a new favorite brew!).

Took the Cincinnati Underground tour with Breslin (aka Baconator). She was super fun and gave a ton of great info on the history of the Over The Rhine and beer brewing in Cinci.

Went here to see a friend play music. Wasn't aware of everything else this location has to offer. Good variety of beer, simple bar food, and ..... What ... Circus performers. The decor inside is early American warehouse, but don't let that scare you away. The person who served us beer at the bar was a juggler. We took our seat at a table and the staff member who waited on us performed on the steel ring and silks. It was a very enjoyable evening and I would recommend you give it a try.

My second time at Bircus and my first time catching a full show here for New Years Eve. I have to say they did an outstanding job putting together a family friendly event that had great stunts, food, and it was affordable as well! Our ticket to the event got 4 family members in at 2 wood fired Pizza’s for the table as well as soft drinks. This was a more than adequate amount of food and it was delicious. There beer has always been exceptional and I love the IPA’s. Now for the show, equally exciting for adults as well as kids. The stunts kept you on the edge of your seat and awing at the spectacle. I would do this again in a heartbeat. They really know how to put on a show!

Okay let’s talk funny business! The tickets were easy to process and with a family of 9 this afternoon weekend activity was just what the doctor ordered. The circus team of 4 was friendly, engaging, and energetic. The show was divided into a few parts. The first part consisted of the show! Juggling, fire throwing, dog tricks, holla hopes and a unicycle performer. During the intermission the team engaged with the crowd and collected tips. Following the intermission the crew did a training with all the kids! For the cost, the circus was just right, nonetheless, they did run out of kid snacks.

Amazing food. We found this restaurant by accident while on a road trip in America and I can honestly say it was some of the best food I have eaten in a long time. I had the steak and it was cooked to perfection. The staff were excellent. I know some people have mentioned in other posts about it being a little slow which it was however you can see in the kitchen that everything is being cooked fresh and so I'm happy to wait for fresh cooked food.

As local residents of Mainstrauss, we've been longtime fans of Zola's. Unfortunately, our last two visits have left us deeply disappointed.

A very nice restaurant with a great wine selection. I had spaghetti and meatballs, several wines, a cocktail, and the tiramisu. Food was good but nothing jumped out at me.

The staff was attentive and friendly, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Background music was just the right volume and a great wine selection rounded out the evening perfectly. If you're in Covington and craving Italian cuisine, Governor's House is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back to try more of their menu!

Mac's Pizza Pub offers vegan pizzas and wings with various sauces. The atmosphere is casual, and the staff are attentive and friendly. The prices are reasonable, and the food is good.
What a fun spot! Not sure how the Green Bay Packers fans made it to this pizza spot, but their presence is palpable. The pizza was perfectly baked and the wings were perfectly fried. Yum, yum!

This is a pretty decent place. Nice atmosphere and surroundings. Parking is limited and so I parked in the garage just one block north. I ordered a beer they listed on the beer list and the bartender came back and said they were out of that one so I ordered a different one. She came back and said they were out of that one too. (They should update their beer list). I did finally get a beer so it was ok. The pizza was fantastic!! I ordered the Macs supreme with anchovies well done. It came out perfect! The anchovies were just enough salty flavor and were fresher tasting than most places I get them. I would come back and try again although I feel there were only a couple of pizzas on the menu that sounded good. The Hawaiian would be my next choice.

Had an amazing time at Mac's Pizza Pub Covington! The pizza was mouthwatering, and the wings were a hit with everyone. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making our visit enjoyable. The atmosphere was vibrant, with great vibes for a group outing. We spent $10-20 per person and felt it was worth every penny. Definitely a must-visit!

We visited on a Saturday evening and they had a trio playing covers of familiar songs. There were options to sit close to the music, at the bar, away from the music, or outside. Near the bar is a golf game, pool, and shuffleboard. We shared an appetizer sized deep dish pizza which was very good. My husband ordered wings and described them as good not great. I got a grilled chicken salad which was tasty but the chicken was a little dry. My husband and I were seated close to and playing the golf game when our food came and we ate a 1/4 then went to play another hole and someone came and started clearing our dishes but thankfully I saw them before too much damage was done. It was an honest mistake. We had a good time and we would visit here again.

The food is great but fell in love with the Packers dedicated room. This is what put Covington over Wooster Pike.
