On Friday March 21, 2025, my wife an I were passing through Bowling Green on our way to Florida for…read moreSpring Break. It was lunch time and we worked up an appetite on our drive. Thankfully my wife suggested Pub By Novo. It was the first Friday of March Madness, but we were there early so we had no problem snagging a table. When you walk in it feels like a sports bar. It is a clean space with lots of metal and concrete. I like the look. When you peruse the menu you quickly realize this ain't no typical sports bar. The menu offers upscale bar food and has something for everyone. We started with the Pimento Cheese Dip, which comes with a generous portion of dip and lightly toasted bread. It was very good. My wife ordered the Kentucky Hot Brown (although here it is simply called Hot Brown). It was on point and excellent. I had the Chicken and Waffle, mine was very good but the Hot Brown was the star of the day. Service was extremely friendly and dripping in Southern Hospitality. Prices are reasonable. I'm not sure I'll ever be back to Bowling Green Kentucky, but if I am I'll certainly stop at Pub By Novo!

I was surprised by the cocktail menu, which is much more creative than your average pub, and stands…read morein contrast to the vibe of the pub in general, which is super industrial, bright, and a true sports bar. I couldn't believe how crowded it was, even on a Saturday-- almost everyone who came in had a super long wait! Every table was full, and I was only lucky enough to be seated because I had a table of one. I had a cocktail that was excellent (can't find which one on the menu online, but I think it was something with blackberry?), and the parmesan salmon which was also great. The portions were a little smaller than I expected, but still satisfying. I can see why this place is so popular, especially amid all the chains on the same street!

Will definitely be coming back to check it out on a busier day. They had a food truck, but since it wasn't busy they closed early.

I heard great things about both the food truck and the local food delivery, which is why I am itching to go back! The service was great, and our bartender was extremely friendly and knowledgeable.

I ordered a beer (Drake's Lager) as I planned on what I was going to eat. Neither the bartender that waited on me initially, nor the bartender that was helping her ever approached me to ask if I needed food or another drink. The $8ish that I spent for the service was probably too much. Very disappointing knowing what their restaurants usually offer as far as customer service.

To start, the food was great and our server provided excellent service during our visit…read more Unfortunately, what happened after we left is what ultimately led me to give this restaurant a one-star review. We are from Michigan, and a few days after returning home, we noticed that our debit card had been charged more than the total on our receipt, including the tip we originally left. Thankfully, I kept my copy of the receipt, as it did not match the amount that was processed. It appears that our server removed an item from our bill and increased the tip without our authorization. I contacted the restaurant as soon as I noticed the discrepancy. The manager on duty at the time was unable to assist with a refund, so I had to call back the following day to speak with another manager. While the second manager assured me the issue would be resolved and suggested the server was unaware of the error, it has now been four days and I have yet to receive a refund. I strongly recommend that anyone dining here keep their receipt and consider taking a photo of the final bill before leaving to help prevent a similar issue.
