48 Best Pubs near Crestview Hills

“Stopped in for a bite to eat after picking up family from the airport. It was a gorgeous day so we sat outside. They were a little busy so we enjoyed the company and beautiful weather. Waitress waited on us, we ordered our drinks and it took a bit to get them but the bar was backed up. The Old Fashioneds were worth the wait. We ordered the Belhaven Beer Cheese with pretzels to start and they were outstanding. Cheese was warm and the pretzels were some of the best we've had (forgot to take the picture until they were almost gone, thats how good they were). Had the Cotswold (grilled chicken Swiss, bacon and pesto mayo) with chips and it was very good. The chicken was cooked just right, juicy, and the pesto mayo topped it off. Also had a Reuben with chips and it was also good (we prefer ours a little more toasted but overall it was good). We enjoyed the environment and the beautiful weather on a Saturday afternoon. There are a lot of shops to visit so you can easily make an afternoon having lunch at The Pub and shopping. Perfect area for grabbing lunch and then walking it off shopping. Love this area!!“

“Gordo's is a true Gem. Everything on the menu is the best version of what can be produced. The Chef/Proprietor is a renowned chef who has studied under some of the best in the world. Each burger and each appetizer reflects a quality that sets this place apart from any other burger place. Give it a try and it will become your new favorite place.“

“Had a great time here last Thursday evening. Robert the bartender was the reason we enjoyed our night so much. He was friendly, welcoming and very funny. It’s a nice casual spot in Mt Adams to watch a game or just hang out with Robert!! We tried to return on Saturday night but it was so packed we couldn’t get in. Thanks for the great service, Robert. Hope to see you during our next visit.“

“MOTR continues to be one of the best places to see both local and touring acts in Cincinnati. OTR is a special place, so having MOTR in the center of it - as the center of it - is really awesome and something I appreciate. Also, who doesn't love super crispy tater tots?“

“The great prices and the great food you can order from the restaurant next door Tom's Papa Dino's Pizza. Always a fun night on Wednesday Karaoke and Live Bands on Saturday nights.“

“I met my beautiful wife here 6 years ago! Very friendly environment! Great drinks and specials. Best bartenders in the Tri-state area!“

“Truly a wonderful experience. I have been here before and it was awesome. Brought my boyfriend to try it. His grandma is from England. He grew up with all these dishes. Loves to cook them. The environment & great food brought back many good memories of her. Thank you for that!!! Our server was genuine, efficient & friendly. Yummy food. I had your Fish- wow! The best!!! Thank you!!! ❤️.“

“Popped in on Saturday night to see our friends in That One Party Band!! First time there and we had a blast!“

“Love this place!! Great food, and great atmosphere! Very cheap too!“

“My family had a surprise 60th B-Day Party for me there June of 24 & my sister's 60th B-Day Party April of 26 both took up entire (I guess what it was)back room, the waitress was great both times & as many diff checks there was she had gotten them all right. The food was delicious(cept theloaded potatoes which I'd say were done lil bit before my Onion Petals were & could tell. But other than that it was great both times“

“My wife and I stopped by Zola Pub & Grill last Saturday—Derby Day—for a bite to eat. It wasn't crowded, just a few regulars at the bar, making it a nice, quiet spot to enjoy good food and good company. We started with the Cajun Cheese Fries (ordered without jalapeños or green onions and sour cream on the side), and they were delightful—served hot and fresh. Unlike some places, the cajun seasoning actually covered the fries rather than just being sprinkled on top, and the cheese was melted to perfection. We also split 10 medium wings which were hot and hit the mark, and my wife, who is a big fan of Caesar salads, absolutely loved theirs. To wash it all down, I stuck with Mich Ultras while my wife had the Country Boy Ciders; they were running a special that night for $3 a can, which made for a very reasonable bill. The staff were friendly, helpful, and professional, and since the bartender mentioned they are known for their burgers, we’ll definitely be heading back to give those a try. If you're looking for a casual spot with good food and fair prices, this is a solid bet.“

“Have ended many a night here over the span of many years, this place may not have the trendiest drinks nor the hippest crowds, but it has real people happily working and patronizing. A real gem, old Cov as it gets! Beautiful back bar, perhaps the most gorgeous in all of Kenton Co. Serves 7oz Little Kings, that says it all. Don't change a damn thing! Okay, maybe the name...“

“Bartender made my night very cool girl. Was Monday karaoke night and was older folks singing very old songs but it ended when I arrived which for me was good.

Parking: Tons of parking and very handicapped accessible

Kid-friendliness: It's a bar kids not welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: Great no issues“

“Nice neighborhood bar with a mixed crowd. I usually visit during the day before the nightlife hits. Reasonably priced drinks and tasty wings. I've noticed the staff tends to leave you alone...this is great when you don't want to be bothered and bad when you want a drink refresh.“

“Highly recommend! Great service, great food and even better drinks! Atmosphere is chill and the staff is always friendly. Love this place and will continue to visit. Simply the best place in Delhi!!“

“Nicholson is always a great place to go before the Aronoff center. We did go early because it gets crowded closer to Showtime. Everyone enjoyed their food – one got salmon, one got fish and chips, one got the pot roast and one got the hot brown. Our server, Deja, was very good.“

“Murder Mystery Dinner was a lot of fun. Food was great! Everyone had a great time!“

“First visit. Got the special… best French Dip sandwich I’ve had. Baguette was perfection for this dish. Will be back.“

“we found our phone! we thought we had lost it there but found it at home.“

“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.“

“Awesome hole in the wall away from the Mainstrasse. You need to check it out!!“

“A quiet and welcoming little nook nestled amongst all the glitter of nearby franchises it offers a simple and inexpensive menu. We were greeted quickly upon arrival and offered our choice of seating. Bartenders and waitstaff introduced themselves and genuinely inquired about how your day has been. If you’ve been here before they remembered you. Dinning was relaxed and easygoing, no rush to order or pressure to upsell you. Food arrived quickly presented simply but attractively. Prices are reasonable and much lower than surrounding venues. Thanks for a really good experience Ian. Anytime I’m in Cincinnati I’ll be coming back.“

“Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere! Very friendly staff and amazing beers! 10/10 recommend!“

“When we showed up with 70 people they were amazing! Service was great, workers were hustling, kitchen staff got all of our food out in a timely manner.“

“Nice neighborhood bar serving good drinks and pub style food. The food menu is limited somewhat but the taste and quality was very good. Happy hour went until 7 pm and they had live music on the weekend staring at 8 pm. Service was good but tight with the bartenders mixing drinks and serving the food from the kitchen. Lots of regular patrons present .“

“we set our food truck up here for a bday party,everyone was great and supper nice,great little pub,“

“great food and very generous portions“

“was recommended by another DJ fir karaoke 🎤 singing“

“One of the best bars in Norwood. Sara, Amy, and the rest of the bartenders are amazing.“

“I love love love this hometown bar! The Arnzen family & staff treat everyone like family. It’s literally like Cheers. They know your face and remember what’s going on in your life each time ya come in. I’m a Loveland native myself so I love the small town vibes.“

“I really like this place. The drinks are cheap, bartenders are friendly, and Pac Man for a quarter. Usually pretty laid back during the week, but can get lively on weekends. Nothing flashy or hip, just a little neighborhood hole in the wall done just right.“

“We had a surprise party here and it was absolutely fantastic! The staff was very friendly, fun and attentive. It may be a smaller, local bar but if you’re looking for a place for a party… Dixie Club is it! Excellent prices and perfect space for a private party.“

“We set Beefs as our playoff destination last Bengals season, decided to do the Super Bowl at home, you know the outcome. Won't make the same mistake this year. it has been a great playoff. Can't say enough about Beefs, food is always fresh, hot and affordable. ALL staff members are extremely efficient and friendly. Beer is ice cold and cheaper than every other pub we visit. The best fish and chips I have ever eaten and the wings are phenomenal! AFC Championship Sunday....WHO DEY!! The loudest table at Beefs when our Bengals are on.“

“Had a 4pm reservation. Luckily we found a parking spot on the street but if you can't find one there is a parking lot right across the street ($20.00). When we walked in it definitely felt like a bar. Bar area was full and lively when we walked thru. Hostess checked us in and sat us in the covered/enclosed patio area right away. Sarah, our waitress, came over right away and introduced herself. We knew right away she'd take care of us. Ordered our drinks and waited for the rest of the group. As soon as they arrived Sarah brought the drinks, right on queue. We had a couple of Old Fashioneds (Four Roses and Angels Envy). Both were very good. They were on the stronger side, close to straight buorbon (we like ours with a little more simple syrup). We passed on appetizers and headed straight to the food. Ordered the Last Don with fries, the parblano paper jam, bacon and monterey was an excellent combination on this burger.. Fries were seasoned and crispy. Next up was the Short Rib Grilled Cheese and fries. Unfortunately I forgot to ask Sarah to hold the pickled red onion and had to trade mine for The Last Don. My hubby was a sport about it and he ate the Short Rib GC and he said it was very good. Last was the Truffle Brie Chicken with mushroom risotto, truffle brie sauce and asparagus. This dish was the highlight of the meal. Excellent all around with the perfect amount of truffle. The only small issue we had was when the food came out the burger and grilled cheese plates and fries were cold. However, the Truffle Brie Chicken dish was still hot. We didn't have an issue eating the cold food because we figured the pasta dish was what held up our other plates and it was beyond delicious.. Other than the cold food, everything else was top notch. We were not there when they had live music (intentionally, we had my 86yo mom with us) but we could tell it could probably getting a little loud in tye patio area when there is live music, which wouldnt bother us at all. We enjoyed visiting the oldest tavern in Cincinnati. This has kicked off our A to Z journey and glad we chose Arnold's as our first stop.“

“A girlfriend and I came here during St. Patrick's Day weekend for a ladies weekend.

I must say, the ambiance and character is of the up most importance, and Max, with her having a very optimistic personality and easily keeping your spirit in a great mindset is nothing but worth the experience, along with Rob letting you know exactly where you should go depending on your personal preference, he will help lead you to a destination you're looking for, dependent upon your preference. Great experience, to say the least.“

“Great tacos and wonderful staff!! 🌮“

“Best bar in Covington and northern KY.“

“The atmosphere inside is like no other. The Greenwich is a hidden gem in Cincinnati. Jazz, Blues, Big Band, Recitals, Orchestra, Spoken Word, Funk, R&B and Pure Love! Great place to work. My coworkers are awesome. So is my Boss. I have to say The Artists are my absolute favorite. I love each and everyone of them. Art lives and breathes in the Greenwich and I feel special to be part of such a special place. The drinks are cheap, the private live events I work have changed my life. The guests are something special too. Some have become life long friends. I would recommend you be a part of history because this place is actually historical.“

“Nice, relaxed atmosphere.“

“One of the staff thought it'd be 'funny' to try and steal my purse. I was watching the band play and he tried to take my purse from me. He only stopped pulling on my purse when my friend and I yelled at him. He tried to play it off as a joke. I didnt get his name. We left after the incident. This place is not safe for women when staff are behaving like this.“

“Fab little bar that is not that little, it turns out. Terrace at the back. Two bars, set up in shotgun formation (long and narrow).

Friendly staff. Good selection of draft beers and other drinks (including hard seltzers and ciders).

Parking was a bit tricky, but I eventually found something (paid) on the street.“

“Wonderful food, great owner, great service.“

“Best wings on the West Side. Change that. Best wings in all of Cincinnati. Love all the Wild Mike’s locations. Have not been to this one in years. The new expansion at this one is great. The new bar is a great addition“

“Good environment and good people! We came here while visiting our family and the food, environment and service were great! I would recommend this place to any one living in the area or visiting! And thank you to the manager on duty, she graciously paid for our meal! It was greatly appreciated!!! It goes to show that there are good people still out there!“

“Friendly atmosphere! Great service! Cold beer!!! Everyone was singing with the band!!!“

“Great food and service staff was awesome!! 🍔“
