For people from out of town, this is a gay bar! I heard from locals that its not advertised as a gay bar but it totally is. Other than the smoking it’s a great little spot. The drinks are strong and all the staff and people are super friendly. I will be back when I’m in Cincy.

This is by far the best family oriented bar I have had the pleasure of going to. I love the staff, their drinks are on par. Karaoke is fun! I love each and every person I have met there and have so many amazing memories that I share with strangers.

My husband and I didn’t know this was a “lgbtq” bar until we got there, but we still had a great time! Nice staff, nice tables & chairs, good music & other customers there with us were pretty chill and everyone just did their own thing. I actually lost my purse & they found it for me and we came …

We always love checking out the local gay bars during our travels. This was one of the 2 we visited and we had a great time. The bartender was amazing and the drinks we great. We stumbled in on a Wednesday, which happened to be karaoke night. Good times were had. We'll be back!

This bar is amazing. We were just passing through and always try to check out local LGBTQA bars, our bartender Jamie was absolutely amazing. We met some amazing people and would definitely come again. Drinks are a reasonable price and they do have a cigarette machine, you can smoke inside. We went on Tuesday so free pool, so cool!

What an amazing place! Bartenders are the best. Funny and fast. They usually have food on Sundays, usually when there is a Bengals game, but other times too. The bar is so clean and smell great. That is saying something since they still allow smoking in there. Love this place! Best bar in Mainstrausse, Covington!
