36 Best Dive Bars near Covington

“Nice food, low key, laid back ambiance. Good service. Cov-gem!“

“Rosie's is a hearty and delightful gay bar holding it down for the cuties of NKY for years now. The staff is attentive and friendly, all of them cool people in their own right, and as a team a delightfully professional lot. Prices are basically a time capsule from 2015. Good for a day drink or a lively weekend. Christie the bartender is my fave.“

“Had an awesome time. The vibe is exactly what you want—classic dive bar feel with NHL on and Labatt on draft. As an out-of-towner, I felt right at home thanks to the bartenders and the regulars—they were all fun, welcoming, and made it a great night. Definitely a spot I’d come back to.“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“First time here, had a blast! Was fun watching Shiny Old Soul play! Brian, the bartender, was very friendly and provided great service! Cozy inside and out back they have a nice clean outdoor space with a fire pit. If your favorite local band or one you're interested in is playing, give this place a shot! Literally every customer that was in the bar when we went seemed polite/friendly. Like, people actually say excuse me to get by, easy to strike up conversation, etc. Very welcoming. Was my first time at a bar in a long time, so I was weary, but I couldn't have asked for a better evening. We were there on an early to mid Saturday evening and it wasn'tt crowded. There was plenty of room for us to sit. Last, the men's bathroom was clean, which was nice. Hope to visit again! PS: Should mention that I wasn't drinking alcohol and still had a great time!“

“The friendliest bar in town with the cheapest drinks in the town“

“It's a neighborhood bar it's a neighborhood hole in the wall bar good atmosphere good people a pool table that jukebox couple of dart boards everybody is welcoming and if you're new they like to treat you as family come in sit down meet great people have good strong drinks the building is a little wear and tear but it definitely appeals to the atmosphere I've been going there for 6 years now it's a great place I've met a lot of good friends there good people. Brings back a lot of nostalgia moments. Just how good old bars used to go.“

“That lady Ms. Tasha is the first person I met in this city who has any decorum. Tasha and her cute nephew LA offered amazing hospitality and all of the patrons even at this establishment were so nice and friendly. I truly felt safe and at home here and they have great music and prices. I was crying so bad I had, had such a bad experience at the hard rock casino and Ms. Tasha turned my whole day around. They were hosting a 65th birthday party yesterday when I was in and Ms. Tasha went above and beyond to make sure the party people’s set up was perfect even down to the fine details. You couldn’t give your money to a better bar. This place rocks and if I ever have to go back to Cincinnati I’ll certainly stop here and recommend this place to all my friends touring. Great atmosphere, excellent service, great attitudes, kind, caring, and considerate. Ms. Tasha certainly didn’t have to do any of that stuff for me but she made sure I felt right at home in this establishment. I’ve never had better service than this ever. She is the best bartender/server I have ever had. Patrons you better tip Ms. Tasha good. She is good wonderful soul.“

“The bartender Carole is the best!!“

“Dana g can’t be me !! 💯🙌🏻❤️“

“Just a great place to begin or end your evening. Nothing fancy, but always memorable. And if you’re worthy, they might remember you. :-)“

“We hosted a get together here and had a great time! Candace was so great to work with prior to the event and helped us organize drink tickets and a space for us for food. The day of the event, Brandy and Tommy (the bartenders) took great care of us and made sure everyone had a great time. This place is a hidden gem up on the hill with great staff, great bar selections, and a great atmosphere! We will be back.“

“Definitely the locals…the history…Not to mention it’s one of few places I have left to go to still remember great times with my mom (Patty) and stepdad ( Spanky)….“

“😀Monks is a good and fun place.“

“Pretty much the epitome of a hole in the wall bar. The staff or bartender aren't the most social creates but that's not why you go there. The beer and drinks a dirt cheap and good. I'm pretty sure that regulars there have been patronizing that bar for years. Great little bar if your into that style and atmosphere.“

“Best place to be with friends and the karaoke is the best!“

“Had a Blast at Trivia on Tuesday and saw some great live music over the weekend!“

“Fries Café really has it all — a great outdoor patio, darts, pool, shuffleboard, and TouchTunes. The staff is always friendly, and the drink selection is excellent. And don’t sleep on the snacks — they’ve got a great variety to keep you going. Perfect place to hang out with friends and unwind. Highly recommend!“

“Had a chill night at the Crazy Fox Saloon. Played some pool and enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere. They don’t serve food or make mixed drinks, but you can bring your own food or get delivery, which is convenient. Bartender was alright — not overly friendly, but did the job. Overall, it’s a solid neighborhood bar if you're in the mood to kick back, have a basic drink, and shoot some pool.“

“Great place!!! Good prices! Great staff!“

“My grandater finally got a job doing Herbalife business and we came here to watch tv to celebrate , bethleigh can’t watch swamp people anymore . I was takin a break, but it’s worth it to support her specially since her mom been in jail for bad checks. Made good friend’s here, good people, cold drinks, good music, cold drinks, darts! Praise him.

how bad is short ness of breath at night“

“Janet is an amazing chef and woman. She catered my daughter’s Sweet 16 and everyone was very impressed by her buffet styled setup and the food was delicious. She even stayed and made sure everyone was taken care of. Her prices can’t be beat either. I definitely recommend her. 🔥🔥🔥“

“Cool 2nd floor place that's actually 3 bars in one. There's a front outdoor deck and middle bar that go by Blind Pig. O'Malleys is in the back and worth finding. It has a great vibe and the prices were very reasonable. The service was awesome and the food was better than we would've expected.
We had a little trouble with our hotel and the service and scene at O'Malleys was exactly what we needed. They totally reset our day and we will definitely be back.“

“Quiet little burger joint with a beautiful view. The burger was juicy. The bartender didn't listen very well with the condiments, but I won't complain. The view was immaculate. The patrons there were nice and welcoming. I'll go again when I am on that side of town.

Parking: Street parking. Mostly residential.“
