I drove from Indianapolis just to see a show, and not a single complaint or regret. How it should always be done. These folks get it. If your band plays out, this is where you want to see them.“

“We hosted my son's 40th birthday at The Post on December 27. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. We did an afternoon event with drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Our guests were encouraged to bring their small children because there's an amazing play area . The Post prepared the appetizers and presented them in an attractive manner. Everything was delicious.
Marshall is an amazing chef. Jason, the event planner, was on top of everything and extremely helpful. It was perfect. I highly recommend visiting The Post for a drink and a bite, or hosting an event there.“

“Popped in after dinner downtown last night and Prim certainly delivered! I have been gushing about the ambiance and aesthetic since we walked in to anyone who will listen. I literally cannot wait until my next visit because the vibe matches my energy perfectly. This place is such a breath of fresh air, not to mention how pretty it smells inside. The decor is to DIE for - literally bury me at Prim when I die. Love, a new regular for sure.“

“I really like this spot! I am just now getting into bourbon after a long time of not being a bourbon drinker, so I had never made the effort to check this place out, but I wish I had much earlier! While they have a wide bourbon selection, of course, they do have other drinks, and cocktails, too. The cocktails are phenomenal and unique!

The people are great and the vibe is very accepting and welcoming. The bartender was so kind and attentive. It is a quaint but beautifully kept place, and I really enjoyed my afternoon there! The happy hour deals were nice, too!“

“The vibes were electric the second we walked in, definitely the spot on a Saturday night. We sat at the bar and ordered food through the QR code and later grabbed a seat by the fire 😍. Not my preferred way of ordering but it made perfect sense for the bar setting. The quesadilla was amazing and my husband got the wings, we shared the cornbread, the butter!! 🔥 We had the sweetest little bartender help us, I didn’t catch her name but she was cracking us up! Good vibes all around and worth checking out!“

“927 Reserve on Monmouth Street in Newport is a true gem, offering an unparalleled experience that elevated our men’s club spring gathering to extraordinary heights. From the moment we stepped into this sophisticated venue, we were enveloped by its refined ambiance and impeccable attention to detail. The bar’s curated selection of top-shelf liquors is nothing short of exceptional, showcasing a range that caters to the most discerning palates. Each handmade cocktail and mixer was a masterful creation, bursting with flavor and crafted with evident care, delighting every guest. The thoughtfully designed space further enhanced our evening. The outdoor patio provided a perfect haven for our cigar enthusiasts, offering a comfortable and stylish setting to savor their smokes under the open sky. Meanwhile, the main bar area, with its relaxed atmosphere and large screen playing music videos, kept the rest of us entertained and immersed in the festive mood. The seamless blend of these distinct spaces allowed our group to tailor the experience to our preferences while remaining connected as a party. 927 Reserve is more than a venue—it’s a destination that exudes elegance and delivers unforgettable moments. Our event was a resounding success, thanks to the establishment’s outstanding offerings and warm hospitality. We left with memories to cherish and a unanimous desire to return. Highly recommended for any occasion that calls for sophistication and celebration.“

“I can only speak for the weekends. That is the only time I have gone. With that said the ladies that work the bar are Incredibly nice and make you feel at home. And Donna sets the tone with the karaoke and I have always had a great time! This story tells it all. I am 61 years old and have been able to drink legally since I was 18, So needless.to say I have been in a frw bars in my life. Not just here but around the country and parts of the world. And in all that time I never had a bartender come back after I paid them and say the accidentally charge me too much and gave me change back. This is a testament to how awesome this place is. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. So come on down and spend an evening with friends.“

“Cozy, quirky, and charming! Visited for the first time, but will return!“

“Very relaxed atmosphere people are laid back, great place to enjoy music and conversation. Not a place for getting wild a place to enjoy relax an have a drink with friends the people that come here average around 50 years old . Come relax and enjoy! There is a pizza parlor next door if you get hungry and you can bring it in.“

“Staff is extremely sober. Only show up if you’re trying to have a good time. Don’t be a party pooper and show up expecting expectational exquisite performance from the establishment when you’re coming 10 minutes till close. - Jason Weber“

“On a recent trip to Cincy with my teenage daughter, I suggested we go to Jungle Jim's. She was less than enthusiastic... until we got there. 😁 A grocery store has no right to be this fun! I honestly wish we'd had time to visit the other location, too. Pictures don't don't paint an adequate picture, but we snapped a few when we weren't running around giggling and yelling, "Come look at this" to each other. 😂 So much cool food but so much crazy STUFF! If you haven't been, this is a legit grocery store and the prices are pretty competitive. But this isn't somewhere you go for a quick shopping trip, especially with kids.“

“great place great bar maid“

“Good people, live bands, horse shows and good place to hold an outdoor party!“
