Where to go in Northern KY

[birdman1099]

It appears I will be spending Thursday evening in Covington, KY. Can any of the N. KY folk clue me in as to where to have a nice meal and a few drinks? Although I have been through there many time (buying Bourbon of course:grin: ), I've never stayed there.

Thanks.....

There are quite a few pubs in Covington around Main / 6th. There is also a place called Molly Malone's on 4th that I like. Might be worth your time if that is your scene. Across the river, I am a big fan of Montgomery Inn. They have phenomenal ribs. If you have a sweet tooth, but sure to check out Graeter's Ice Cream (especially their Black Rasberry Chip).

I've been wanting to check out the Beer Sellar in Newport

I have been to the Cock & Bull English Pub. Good grub, great beer.

If you like ribs even just a little bit, you need to check out the Montgomery Inn. Cross the bridge, and head East and you'll find the boathouse. It's one of the top five rib places I've ever been to, they have a decent bar, and not bad seafood for the Midwest.

Go east to the ajoining town of Newport. Try the York Street Cafe or go to Newport on the Levee for a variety of choices.

A few more miles away, I'd heartily suggest the outstanding Cajun food (yes, Cajun food in Northern KY!) at Knotty Pine on the Bayou.

Also a lot of bars & retaurants in the Mainstrasse area of Covington. There I'd suggest Chez Nora or Dee Felice.
