14 Best Cocktail Bars in Covington

“It was a bit uncomfortable when we walked into the wine bar. They seem surprised that we had a reservation..overall the service was uncomfortably good. The food was good but I thought that the wine selection should have been elaborated a little more since it was a wine bar overall it was a decent restaurant week meal .“

“Absolutely LOVE Opal! Their food is absolutely incredible, and their allergy-inclusive menus make Opal an awesome option for anyone!! If you're in the Cincinnati/Covington area you HAVE to check them out!!“

“Omg! I got to say this was one of the best Brunch spots Ive been to. The food and service was amazing. So flavorful and the seasoning… Lets just say no salt or pepper is needed. I can’t wait to try the other menu items. Today we tried the steak and eggs, chicken and waffles, and Banana French Toast. I also had a Mimosa.“

“a great place to eat food great customer service is great fun place“

“There was a belligerent man (his name was R Elliot) and he was harassing the bartender for alerting last call. The bartender Lauren not only handled the situation professionally and with grace but made me feel extremely safe with getting the belligerent man out of the yard. If you’re ever at the yard and Lauren is working and you’re a woman,femme, or femme presenting person you will not only feel safe but you will BE safe. She is absolutely stunning inside and out and takes no drama!“

“A dive bar type of place with a cozy basic atmosphere. Drinks are cheap for a downtown bar in Covington KY. Service is attentive and friendly. Food is not served but several restaurants are nearby or one can bring food into the bar. Happy hour is unparalleled for it seems to cover all types of drinks. This is not the usual for places that have happy hour. Seating is ample plus space exists to stand.“

“I used to work here and I loved it so much and even though I don’t work here anymore, I still come back whenever I’m in town!

I love the snack menu and the wine selections. The wine on draft is always rotating so you always get something new and interesting. Many of those people who work here are very knowledgeable about Wine and beer. One of my favorite things about Crafts and Vines is the community!! There are many regulars that have become great friends and are in every day or on certain days of the week. There are so many lovely people to talk to if you love meeting people! It is such a cozy and welcoming environment, and I always make sure to stop in when I am in town!! Definitely go! There is something for everyone!!“

“I see some negative comments. I don't believe the reviewers realize what Zapata is about. Frankly, I find it refreshing that dishes are not smothered in cheese and drowning in sauce. Zapata is about combining flavors, and not marching to the beat of the typical Americanized version of Mexican food to which we have become accustomed. I recommend it to all my friends.“

“Great ice cream, amazing number of flavors and nice people. Try the Kinder cones.“

“Great hotel bar and restaurant“
