50 Best Wine Bars near Covington

“I came here to drink wine and spend time with life-long friends. Little did I know, I would be referred to one of the best wines I've tried from a passionate and educated sommelier named Ashley. And maybe I even made a new friend in the process. Thank you!“

“What an amazing place to hold birthday party and a night out! Over the weekend we hosted my husband’s birthday party at Ripples event space. They were amazing from the service to the food and they were very accommodating to all of our requests! Trish and Matt did an amazing job with service and then everyone kept going on about the food! Way to go!!! Thank you so much for an amazing night out!“

“Second Story & staff support rescue dogs, hosting adoption events where people are able to get to know adoptable dogs in a fun, social atmosphere. We love Second Story!“

“Enjoyed our dinner tonight. The Rainbow Vegetable Flatbread was delicious as was the Shrimp scampi and Caesar salad. We asked for bread and was told they do not have bread for table service. Don’t understand. I think bread should be available with the entrees. We will go back. Did enjoy dinner!“

“Food was great and service was Awesome“

“I met a group of friends here for dinner. The restaurant is nice & clean. It wasn’t crowded. But since the weather was nice we sat outside on the patio. Service was prompt. I ordered the steak sandwich with aioli & it came with a side salad. The bread was fresh & the steak was tender. But there was a lot of bread. The side salad was average the dressing was so less I could barely taste it. For a $19 sandwich I was expecting a little more filling & bread not being the main attraction. I would go again but I wouldn’t suggest it.“

“Everyone at The Green Line was so friendly and welcoming! 💚 We hosted our son’s wedding rehearsal dinner there on November 8, and it couldn’t have gone better. Our reservation was for 16 people, but we ended up with 17, and Traci, the manager, was so accommodating, making sure everyone had a seat. Our servers, Jessica and Hannah, were fantastic! Their attentive service made the evening truly memorable. The food was delicious, and the dessert was absolutely amazing! 🍽️🍰 Thank you to everyone at The Green Line for taking such great care of us and making this special occasion one to remember! 💕“

“Gabriel was an awesome server. Attentive, not annoying, willing to chat and did not seemed rushed. Food was great. Portions seemed large for tapas, which, of course, is a good thing. My wife and I split the bouillabaisse and the hummus along with a bottle of wine. Plenty of food and drink and only used 1/2 of a $250 gift card we were given.“

“A hidden gem on Garfield Place . We decided to throw out the Hyde park restaurants and try something new . The Mezze Board was fantastic with all of the Mediterranean dips and veggies , The Shrimp Cossoult is to die for . The braised lamb /risotta/feta explodes with every bite. The best of all is that it was our first time dining and and I felt like family with the service from Nimo and Bryce , Coming back next week for the Swordfish . 6 stars !!!!!“

“Nice quaint pizza spot. Good food“

“I was so hungry I forgot to take pictures of the food. The atmosphere was buzzing, but once we were seated, the atmosphere chilled to become very intimate withered I felt exclusively at my own table, and not into everyone else's conversations. The food is phenomenal, the wine and liquor selection was great. Try the Sea Bass!“

“Anjou is a beautiful cocktail bar in the dainty neighborhood of Walnut Hills. On a warm evening, Anjou props open their windows making the whole place hip and relaxing. I quite enjoyed their light and refreshing ube cocktail. Paid parking can be conveniently on the same street.“

“Ronnie and Molly are great! The loaded tots are killer!“

“SUCH a cute gem in madisonville! Great coffee and bakery. They have an outdoor courtyard and patio, and they allow pets! I’ve brought my cat on a harness and leash multiple times and they are so welcoming.“

“Love everything about Urban Stead Cheese!“

“My husband and I stopped in today for lunch after seeing it recommended on Google. The fresh focaccia with olive oil and balsamic were hands down the best I’ve ever had. My husband enjoyed his wedge salad and we split a highly delicious pepperoni pizza. Mike and Maddie were so welcoming! We even got to enjoy their brand new outdoor umbrellas which gave such a nice touch to their outdoor dining patio. We will definitely be back sooner rather than later! 🥰“

“Today we picked Fireside cause we wanted to try some Cincinnati pizza! All I can say is what an amazing place. The gentleman working was amazing!! Helped tell us about other places to go, had us try some different draft beers, they made the best pizza’s even my kids loved all the different types and loved drawing plates to put on the wall. If we were to ever come back this way definitely would be coming back! Recommend 100x!!“

“Wife and I had a wonderful time. Friday night, bartender Harrison knows everything about the wines. Brandee and Davis were great company (also helpful in wine pairings). I went there to see if this wine would be a great fit for my restaurant. They certainly are a spectacular winery with wonderful employees! Thank you for the experience.“

“I have been here several times and it has always been a great experience.This place never disappoints.Wonderful food,top notch service and a great relaxing atmosphere.Amazing view of the city.“

“Went here to actually get photos for a college project, a jazz themed session, the staff were so welcoming and understanding! This tavern is so cozy and unique. I love this hidden little gem! Would return here as a customer due to how polite the staff were.“

“I’m not a wine person but my wife wanted to try a wine bar and we decided to come to Skeleton Root. When talking to the staff I informed them of my lack of wine knowledge. They were very helpful and professional. They recommended a couple of different wines which we tried and to my astonishment, I enjoyed a couple of their wines. The atmosphere was rustic and laid back which I loved. It was a lovely experience and I would like to thank the staff for their suggestions and their help.“

“This establishment is top notch in every way! I recommend the “Kyle” and the “Yolanda Mai Tai” 😊“

“Stopped in for beers while visiting Second Sunday on Main after seeing 4 hot guys in a row go inside lol. Very fun and friendly neighborhood bar. Kyle the bartender is awesome! Although I live in Hyde Park I’ll definitely be upping my OTR game and visiting again“

“1215 is one of the best coffee shops I’ve had the pleasure of frequenting, and I make it a habit to go here at least once a week. It’s in the heart of OTR and is super convenient for anyone in that area. I’m on a first name basis with the baristas and ordering food/coffee from them feels less transactional and more human. They sell Deeper Roots coffee which is top notch, and I could drink their house blend for the rest of my life. They have a really solid selection of teas too. The place is not at all pretentious, and has a regular clientele that is relaxed and friendly - and the place is bustling but not too busy. The music they play is at the right volume and is well-curated - Americana, folk, 2000s indie, soft rock, blues. Around 5-6pm the coffee shop vibe slowly turns into a romantic and cozy wine bar with live music on some nights. The flowers on the tables are replaced by candles and the lights are dimmed. While I’m usually busier in the evenings, this tempts me to stay all day. Fantastic place that I cannot recommend enough!“

“I love that every thing is farm to table from local farmers. Delicious food and everything was fresh“

“One of my favorite places to eat. I love the food. Wine selection is good. Service is good.
I have two issues with this place.
#1. They charge $10 cork fee per bottle of wine on everyday but Thursday. That’s a crime. They claim that their wine is cheaper than other places so it justifies the cork fee, but that’s simply not true. I can get most of them cheaper at Krogers. I don’t agree with being penalized $10 per bottle to drink it there. Therefore I rarely go there any longer unless it’s a Thursday. They could at least cut it back to one $10 fee per night.
#2. When they have a live band they bring the tip jar around to each table and expect you to tip the band. I know where the tip jar is and I usually tip the band, but I don’t like how they somewhat force you to tip them by bringing it to your table. Especially when I’m trying to eat my food.

“I came to the Summit to attend a birthday celebration in their ballroom. Dorothy provided outstanding service without making me feel like I was a burden. I have a hard time chewing, and she happily switched my food for me. It's little acts like this done with a smile that really make nights like this memorable. Thank you!“

“Amazing food, beverage, service & atmosphere!!!“

“Our waiter provided excellent service and attention. Paced our dinner as we requested. Once we asked for our entrees they came out promptly. Both dinners were cooked to perfection. We even shared our great experience with the manager on exit.“

“Wonderful group of ppl with some awesome pizza and calzones. Only thing I wish they also had would be some wings but other than that great experience with my coworkers from Central Window Cleaning out of Columbus“

“The food was outstanding it was my first time there“

“Nice very relaxing 😌 We had a great time .“

“Conclusion
- Hyde Prek is a fun cozy Environment, great place to do some studying or meeting up with a friend. Would recommend drinks like Cappuccinos and up. Baristas are super nice. Hyde Perk, is also open a bit later into the evenings.

“What a CUTE coffee shop 😍😍 The inside is absolutely darling and has plenty of space to sit and enjoy your coffee and breakfast. We opted to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the beautiful weather. Super dog friendly which is always great to see. And lots of breakfast options. We got the quinoa bowl for a gluten free option and it was so good. The sausage in it was very light and everything else was very filling. They also had some fun gluten free muffins and a s'mores bar that was super tasty!! Definitely recommend if you live in the area or are just visiting 👌“

“They have the best carrot cake!“

“Husband mentioned privately that the dish would have been great with bread. Server was at the table next to us (very small spaces) and immediately turns around “you said you want some bread” we were kind of shocked she just barged into our conversation but replied “yeah that would be great” Someone brjngs out the bread - we think what a great server to overhear a comment on how the dish would be better and try's to do so. Server then charges us for an appetizer of bread on the check. Just a tad bit tasteless behavior.“
