    Double decker
    Connie H.

    If you go to this restaurant bring a sweater. Every time I've been here it's been freezing. I ordered a double-decker, switched out chips for fries which cost me over five dollars to do and a Diet Coke. My meal ended up being $30. The food is really good and we always have leftovers for the next day. The fries were a little bit overdone and even the server commented about it, but didn't offer to switch them out.

    It had been a very long time since we were to this gem of a diner so it was high time we came back. We have raved about their burgers in the past and my wife got another great one on this occasion. I myself went in the breakfast direction with what they called "The Feast". It came with 2 eggs (over medium for me), home fries, toast, and a falf order of all breakfast meats (goetta, sausage patty, bacon, and smoked sausage.) The eggs and toast were fine as was the home fries. The meats were definitely the stars for me particularly the goetta and smoked sausage. It was definitely a filling and delicious breakfast. The service was great and the restaurant was no frills as far as appearance but very clean. The price point is very affordable as well. This restaurant continues to impress.

    Double decker and Tater Tots

    Was this place gourmet? No. But it's everything it promises to be. Cheap and good. I had a special that was a BLT, fries, and a drink for $8.50. My husband got a double decker based on someone else's review and he loved it. Don't skip on the tater tots. They also serve breakfast all day which instantly endears me to any restaurant. The service was excellent - are waitress was very friendly, attentive, and offered great suggestions on the menu.

    Tried this place based on a recommendation from our local UPS store front desk guy in fort Thomas. He loves this place and now we can be added to that list. Friendly and fast service with large Portions and hot and flavorful food.... Well that's definitely a run on sentence.. waitress was friendly and gave recommendations- which I love - I got the breakfast platter and he got the Reuben sandwich. I added onions and cheese and peppers to my potatoes and when I requested well done, she told me that it's wasn't a problem.... Who doesn't LOvE a restaurant that will go the extra mile and they delivered as those potatoes were amazing!! As were the eggs... not loving eggs right now just the protein they provide but these were good enough that I ate them all. The French toast was what I was craving and it was good! With the Reuben he enjoyed it but was pretty standard and it was delivered hot hot hot, which was awesome... It's a small hike for us but we will be back for sure..

    French Toast Breakfast with fried eggs and goetta

    Great breakfast spot! Got the French toast breakfast and everything came out piping hot and my goetta extra crispy, just the way I like it. My daughter got the biscuits and gravy breakfast with eggs and goetta and loved her selection. Great prices, great service, quick order and fast, fresh and hot food!

    A perfect place for diner driveins and dives. Everyone know everybody. The place was filled with regulars and the staff is so sweet. They are open until 3 and serve breakfast and lunch and everything looks very good. I ordered the BLT double decker which was one of the best I have had. Bacon was crisp and bread toasted perfectly. The only downside was out of goetta.

    2 eggs, 3 slices of bacon, and pancakes

    I walked out of First Watch this morning after being ignored for literally 15 minutes, until I started talking to the next table. I arrived here ready to cry and starving. I was seated immediately, and had my order taken quickly. Everyone was so lovely. I couldn't finish the stack of pancakes the size of my face. The staff gave me advice for what to order next time (a smaller order and sub one pancake for the toast) so it fit my needs better. The food isn't fancy. This is a down home diner that makes classic American food. My only regret is that I forgot they had goetta! I've been here before, sometimes there is a bit of a wait because there's a line out the door. I'm really glad I got there when there wasn't a line. But they typically move pretty dang fast, even if there is a line. I'm so glad I came here when my other breakfast plans didn't work out.

    My husband brought me to Baker's Table for my birthday dinner. I first became aware of this place…read morewhen I started getting ads for the chef's sourdough book on social media--got the book for Christmas, and apparently talked about that enough that he decided I needed to experience the restaurant! What's striking about the restaurant itself is how quiet and calm it feels. With limited nightly seatings and every dinner table doing the tasting menu there's a sort of orchestrated flow that permeates the space. Not to say energy is low or it's so quiet you feel self-conscious talking; it's just that nothing about the experience feels rushed or accidental. As expected, the bread course was phenomenal as was all the food we enjoyed! We opted for the wine pairing along with dinner, which results in about 1.5 or 2 full glasses over the course of the meal. The sommelier did an excellent job introducing and explaining each wine, as well as why it was selected to pair with each course. All told, a lovely experience and one worth repeating--and not just because the menu changes every season.

    Wow! We went with a group of seven of us and were treated like royalty. Chef personally delivered…read moreour bread service and talked about what it was and how it was made. Each course was like a piece of art on the plate! This is one of those special 'splurge' places that leaves you wanting it again. The space is small and cozy seating only around 20 people.

    After seeing my niece graduate from college, our entire family and guests, all eight of us,…read moredescended on Coppin's restaurant for brunch. Normally, I find hotel food is just okay and nothing special, but Coppin's was a pleasant surprise. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess, and our equally pleasant server quickly brought menus and asked what we would like to drink. When it was my turn, I happily ordered Coppin's Old Fashioned. I was the odd man out because everyone else ordered the Spring Manhattan. Judging by how quickly everyone's drinks disappeared, I'd say they were all very tasty. I was a little unsure about mine at first, so to make sure the quality and taste were consistent, I ordered a second, and it definitely was not a mistake. I ordered the B+G biscuits (which are made by hand according to server in the hotel) and gravy with an extra egg. Others at the table chose a variety of dishes, including the CVG, Cobb Salad, Bagel and Lox, and several other selections. Based on the clean plates all around the table, everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. My wife ordered a sample of banana bread, and I was fortunate enough to snag a small bite, it was excellent. After we had all finished, everyone agreed that my niece had made an excellent choice for her graduation celebration brunch. As my wife and I made our way back to Louisville, we both commented that we would definitely return the next time we were in Covington.

    Going back and forth on stars for this one. Me and around 30 of my coworkers came into town for a…read moretwo day workshop and they got us a room block at this hotel. I ended up being in the North Building and cracked up when I walked into my room and saw I was in one of the Lightwell Lofts (a few of us ended up in them by chance, guess they included them in our room block lol). While the room was super cool and beautiful, there was a lot to be desired. After taking a million photos of the gorgeous room, I quickly realized a major flaw - the bedroom is upstairs, the bathroom is downstairs, and the staircase between the two is a crazy narrow spiral staircase. As someone that gets up to pee in the middle of the night, having to traverse the spiral stairs was terrifying lol. One of my coworkers actually swapped with someone who had a "normal" room because he was worried about falling down the stairs. My downstairs tv wouldn't turn on. I fiddled with the remote a bit, tried rearranging the batteries, but couldn't turn it on. I used the ipad in the room to put in a maintenance request, but no one came. I figured I would just let the front desk know when I headed out to dinner that night. Hours later, the front desk calls me to see if anyone had come to fix the tv - they hadn't. The girl was very nice and apologetic, she said I sent the request in the middle of a shift change and someone had accidentally marked it as complete. So she said someone would be right up, and he did come up. Handed me a handwritten note and a $25 coupon for Coppin's which was totally unexpected and a very nice gesture. Turned out, he knew exactly what the problem was - he said the remote was broken and he was supposed to swap it out but forgot. Gave me a new remote and all was good. He also mentioned there is a second remote upstairs for that tv. After he left, I went to look for it - there was no second remote. We held our meetings in the Scheper Room, which was also beautiful. The room was absolutely freezing the first day and I'm someone that prefers it a touch colder and was uncomfortable. We had to get them to update the thermostat and then in the afternoon it was way too hot. We had food brought in from the hotel and it was all fine, nothing super memorable. There was soup at lunch but the sign didn't even say what it was - just "chef's choice." The Italian hoagies were way too big and needed to be cut in half, I couldn't even finish half of one. The salad with fruit/pecans/etc was my favorite though. They had the completely wrong password on the tables for the Wifi but thankfully we figured it out quickly that we just had to use the room password. The second day for breakfast, there was yogurt on the menu and even on the sign with all the food - but there was no yogurt. Some of my coworkers were specifically asking for yogurt so we had to request it directly because it was included and paid for. Box lunches to take to go on the second day which were fine, I had the chicken caesar salad wrap. Housekeeping didn't come to service my room until 5pm when I was in there getting ready for dinner, so I was not able to get the room serviced. Just asked them for some more coffee. My conditioner in the shower was empty but I didn't bother reporting it after the tv issue and I had my own conditioner with me, so used that. The lotion at the sink was so thick that I could not get it out of the bottle at all, I had to use q-tips to get it out (it was nice quality, just kinda useless if you can't get it out of the bottle lol). Great local offerings on the mini bar and in the fridge. My coworkers and I got a kick out of the "intimacy kits" because we were on a business trip haha. The Magic 8 ball was fun, I loved the conversation cards even though I just read a few of them to myself haha. Even with the bedroom upstairs, it was nice to have the big double closet in the bathroom hallway so I really was just in the loft to sleep and kept all my stuff downstairs. The location is great, lots of fun stuff right nearby. The courtyard is lovely. I would say this is a solid 3.5 stars but since we can't give half stars, I'll give it a 4 because the staff was overall very nice and quickly fixed any issues, just a little annoying that we had any issues at all.

They had parking, and although they were full on reservations, 2 spots at the bar opened up and we grabbed them happily! First, the food was FANTASTIC! I had the Willy Burger and my husband had the fried bologna sandwich and we both loved what we ordered and vice versa. The sauce on the burger was phenomenal! The drink menu was extensive and looked so good but we were in a bit of a hurry and I'm 6 months pregnant so we settled for waters. Second, the service was excellent. Everyone was so kind and helpful. The ambience was great, I loved the big open garage door and patio seating they offered. The decor was so cute!

They have a nice outdoor area, which we avoided due to the current heatwave. We ordered two apps - FRIED GREEN TOMATOES - Topped with Libby's pimento cheese, pork belly lardons, bourbon onion jam, and herb oil and FRIED CHICKEN SKINS - Hand breaded and served with hot honey dipping sauce. The fried green tomatoes were nicely plated, though the pork belly lardons and bourbon onion jam did not have the most pleasant color. They were good, but not as great as the description. Fried chicken skin is the thing! I first had it when we lived in California. An Asian market served them up thinly breaded and fried perfectly crispy. I just about jumped out of my skin when I saw it on the menu at Libby's. The breading at Libby's is thick. It's tasty for sure, but it's quite thick. A quick glance at the chicken skins and it looks like full-on chicken. Anyway, they were very good and I would definitely order them again. I had a taste of the hot honey dipping sauce because it spilled. It was good, but for me it detracted from the flavor I'm looking for. I had to have the FRIED BOLOGNA BLT - House smoked bologna, pimento cheese, fried egg, house made BBQ sauce, spring mix lettuce, & sliced green tomato on grilled 16 Bricks sourdough. First, it was huge! I could only eat half. It was very good. All the different flavors mixed together well. It was messy!! It was so obviously messy the server brought over extra napkins without us having to ask! Top Notch! Oh, the mac and cheese side was just okay. I barely touched it. The second half of the sandwich was delicious cold. It was also not messy at all. The leftover mac and cheese had turned inedible in the fridge. I did not mind throwing it out. My friend had the CLASSIC TURKEY CLUB. It was also huge and she only ate half. The fries were crispy and delicious. Mark had THE DOC HOLLADAY. He said it was okay. He also only ate half. I think he enjoyed the cold leftover more. I like the menu; lots of options. The place is cute. The staff is great. We'd definitely come back.
