Fortunately a couple got up from the bar as we were walking by. We enjoyed a couple beers. Since it was an event they weren't doing flights but were able to accommodate with a couple half pours so we could try something of the higher ABV offerings. There was a nice imperial IPA that was over 10% abv with a nice hop balance that I'm glad was available in a half pour. We didn't eat on this visit but lots of people were eating! The team behind the bar were super friendly and just the right balance of having fun and delivering great service. I wish it were closer. I really enjoy this spot!

PUB FOOD DONE RIGHT!…read more If you're looking for a spot that delivers comfort food with big flavor, Bender's Pub Grub needs to be on your radar! Located inside Alexandria Brewing Company, Chef Shawn Weinbender & his managing partner Lora Damron opened Bender's Pub Grub in December 2022 & they've definitely made their mark on NKY! Their team is serving up traditional pub food with a Southern touch that is undeniably delicious! Voted Best Burger in NKY 3 years in a row, I'd say they're definitely doing it right!!

carry out only: I…read morerandomly found them on instagram and started following so I could try the wings. They didn't disappoint! I ordered online at the West Chester location inside the brewery Alexandria I think. It's in a weird spot in the business district. Pick up was easy and it wasn't busy. Service was friendly. I got the double smash burger (regular one) with cheese only. Tots and 12 wings in dry rub. The burger was good. It could use more salt. It did have some seasoning that you could visibly see though. It was a pretty big burger! Not my favorite smash burger but it was good and i'd eat it again. The tots were fine. Much better after being tossed in the air fryer. The wings had great flavor from the dry rub. I would go back for the wings for sure. They were nice and crispy (which i think i may have requested).

The fish was cooked well and had a good crunch. It was lacking in the seasoning department, but nothing a little table salt and pepper couldn't doctor up a tad. The service was lacking quite a bit. We were pretty much ignored in terms of refills and check ins. The seating is really crammed with people in every nook and cranny. It is loud, but that's to be expected for a sports bar. I will say that after looking at all the mixed reviews, it was better than expected - not by much but better.

I'm not super familiar with the Independence, Kentucky dining scene, but Crewitts Creek Kitchen &…read moreBar has to be one of the best restaurants in the area. I stumbled upon Crewitts Creek while in Independence for my son's soccer game. I only had a short period of time, and though the restaurant and bar were pretty full, I was in and out in less than an hour. Happy Hour is available from 2-6 Tuesday through Friday (they are closed Mondays). Their pick any two for $13 from the Happy Hour menu is an amazing deal! The choices are side salad, wedge salad, bowl of Chili, soup of the day, Jr. club sandwich, or Jr. BLT with cheese. I started with the classic wedge salad with bleu cheese dressing, bleu cheese crumbles, applewood smoked bacon, red onion, and Roma tomatoes. This was a large serving and was full of toppings. My second choice was the Jr. BLT with cheese, and while it says Jr. in the name, this was a full-size sandwich featuring a grilled cheese combined with bacon, lettuce, and tomato. And it was even served with fries. I was not expecting this amount of food for a happy hour offering, but it was more than I could eat, and it was all freshly prepared and great tasting. I would definitely go back to Crewitts Creek again when given the chance.
