We've returned num times...our new favorite place to eat with consistently great food/drinks!“

Way to go!!! Thank you so much for an amazing night out!“

“I stopped in when I was visiting from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Cameron, one of the bartenders, knew his stuff, was great for conversation, really helped me sort through the private barrel selections, and helped me have a very interesting and excellent time there! He helped me settle in on a bottle that was truly unique and fantastic. Cameron and Carl were both amazing! Definitely someplace I would stop back every time I’m back in town which is pretty much annually. Thank you, wise guys as the name fits both in terms of the tradition back with the mafia and the wisdom offered by the folks that worked there. Super grateful!

Not to mention the pizza downstairs, it was pretty damn fantastic!“

“Great bar to grab a drink. Friendly staff, clean and great vibe“

“Was in town for the week on business. We all had a blast!!“

“I came to Athletico for physical therapy after my wife had been here to recover from a broken kneecap. The care she was given here was tremendous well also being painful. Brandon was very aware of her fears and her tolerance. He worked wonders with her. A very happy place. A lot of smiles and laughter to be shared in a place of work is unusual these days. So when I had my issue with my shoulder, there was no other place. I would want to come.“

“Been on my OTR to go list for too long. Finally made it and high expectations were exceeded. My type of bar. No BS. Authentic. Great spot.“

“I can’t think of a single negative thing to say about my first experience here. The staff was amazing, the atmosphere was relaxing and the cigar selection was great. Will definitely be visiting again especially once the weather turns.“

“I try to make it to a handful of shows at this venue every year. Great venue for intimate shows. This place gets all the artists that other tri-state venues used to get pre-pandemic. This is the go-to singer-songwriter spot in the tri-state.“

“Whenever in a town for the first time, we look for an Irish pub. We’re very happy to have found Paddy’s. We had the bar/bartender to our selves for a short while. Discussed Irish whiskeys, history of the bar and more. Had a great time but had to move on. The Casey’s from Michigan.“

“Damon provides great service and it is a relaxed atmosphere.“

“Great local low key bar with friendly attentive staff“

“Great neighborhood bar. Great bartenders, fantastic beer selection, but if you’re looking for food, you’re in the wrong place go across the street or next-door to Mo Chico or Tequila.. This is my favorite neighborhood. Hang out. Parking on the street or across the street in the Paige lot, or behind building on free parking deck.“

“I've eaten at The Post many times, both with my family and with friends. The food is always great and the menu has something for everyone! My kids love the play area and the atmosphere is great for our family. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. I especially enjoy feeling like I can relax and enjoy myself in a space that feels super comfortable. Highly recommend as a great spot to support local, have a drink, and enjoy a good bite to eat!“

“Celebrating our 15th anniversary at The Blind Lemon. Few of our date nights there! My partner Joel
Mellon has been there in 1984! When we met in 2003 we came here often! Our favorite drink is the Grand Mariner warm! The solo guitarist voice was amazing! The magical part of the night was as we were about to leave she sang our song! Norah Jones ‘ come Away With Me’
It was perfect! The night ended well!’

“Great place, bartenders are AMAZING!“

“This is hands down my favorite bar in the city, with the best bartenders around! The cocktails are consistently exceptional, but it’s the sense of community that truly sets this place apart. Wiseguys was one of the first places I visited after moving here from out of state, and Harrison was one of the first friendly faces I met. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and making amazing drinks, he also offered great local tips and made me feel genuinely welcomed both at the bar and in Cincinnati. He really went (and goes) above and beyond! Big shout out to Ellie, Brandon, and Stephen as well – sitting at Wiseguys and enjoying a couple of Sunkissed Sweethearts or espresso martinis with this crew is always a blast!“

“Place just went under new management and I attended a soft opening. The vibe is right. The new owner and service are phenomenal. There's a food truck, outdoor patio, and good tunes. This will be my new favorite spot from now on.“

“the rooftop restaurant! Probably had the best seat in the city to view Great American Ballpark and the riverfront, not to mention an awesome view of downtown. Atmosphere is more like 10-star. Then when it came to our waitress, Abby. 1000% off the charts incredible service. Again, a 10-Star rating. We will be back!“

“This is a great neighborhood bar everybody makes you feel welcome. The food is good comfort type food proportions are good prices are reasonable. The coolest thing about this location is the music they bring in some great musicians. It's a small venue which sometimes makes it hard to watch the musicians but you can hear fine from anywhere in the bar. We visit the location frequently.“

“Benefit fun and pub crawl “Be like Katy” afternoon“

“Clean and welcoming establishment. We were greeted professionally at the door and given a clear explanation of the game. The staff checked on us regularly to ensure we had everything we needed, and service was always prompt and timely. We had a wonderful time, and everyone enjoyed themselves. Keep up the excellent work—we’ll definitely be back!“

“amazing food! every one of the bartenders are awesome! can't say enough about em, and even the owner is so kind! I go for karaoke nights but after talking with him they have so many other cool things going on definitely recommend“

“My husband and I were celebrating our wedding reception with our close friends and family. The staff was so sweet and catering to us all. The drinks were amazing. Jackie was amazing at communicating everything and making all the planning easy for us. I'd definitely recommend that if you have a party or event, you need a space to come here! They will make everything worth your time. If you're looking to take nice pictures, the top balcony has a lovely backdrop of old buildings!“

“Loved this place. First time and will definitely be going back. I suggest the beef sliders and salmon tacos. So tasty!!“

“Awesome neighborhood bar! Great prices and very chill atmosphere!“

“Cool bar with an awesome happy hour, 50% off beer, wine, Old Fashioned's, Manhattan's, and Wells, Monday's - Friday's from 4 PM - 7 PM. Can't beat that. The service has always been quick and friendly.

The location is great for people watching. I definitely recommend going if you are in Covington.“

“I’ve always wanted to visit this place as in general l love driving through Ludlow as the neighborhood has a very rustic charm! So we decided to stop by for a couple of drinks on a Monday evening, we were amazed to find the bar was packed with regulars hanging out at the bar and the place had a very welcoming vibe! Mikey the bartender was friendly and fun to talk to and made great recommendations! Everyday of the week they have some specials, Monday night it was Modelo & Margaritas at $4, the sliders were great and so were the fries! There were a couple of owners with their dogs and apparently the dogs love visiting the bar for bacon(pet owners make a note). Absolutely fell in love with this tavern, it’s the perfect blend of fun, casual, cozy and has a great vibe!“

“This place was so much fun and Tiffany was a fantastic host!!! Thank you for making us feel welcome and super comfortable!!!“
