KJ's Pub

Great bar with awesome bartenders. I love that they carry blueberry redbull. Happy Hour prices are great as well. The pizza is okay, I love their chicken fingers and fries! The buffalo chicken wrap is also amazing! All and all Kj's is a fun bar to come listen to music, have a few drinks and talk with friends.

Nice Sports Bar with great food and music through the week and weekends. Average prices and nice clientele. Plenty of different sports on the many TVs,Had to come back to the for an edit, Was there this past weekend and one problem I have is no Draft Beer of any kind. All bottle which I can live with but still a bummer that no good draft available.

Dropped in to watch some NCAA action on a Sunday afternoon. Sat at the bar and ordered a water with lemon and asked to see a menu. I started with the Saratoga Chips. I thought they would come out quick; they didn't bit the wait was worth it since they were warm some crunchy some chewey, but all good with the accompanying BBQ sauce. Great value at $3. Then for $4 I got a hardy and thick bowl of Chicken Tortilla Soup. More like a chili than a soup and garnished with three jalapeño slices. Very good. Expect smoking at KJ's. They allow it. I saw a pizza come out for a guy down at the end of the bar which looked great. Next time I'll try that.

Note please that they in fact have about a half-dozen up-scale draft beers. Guinness, KY Bourbon Ale, a wheat or two and usually a couple Sam Adam's releases. I go there quite a bit. Usually a very good place. Live music often can get crowded on weekend nights.Once again they DO have at least a half dozen up-scale drafts always.

This is one of the few places in town that I can go, take my laptop and get some work done. Also, they have reasonably priced specials and a generous portion of food. Honestly this is one of the few places that -- on a regular basis -- I'm unable to finish my plate of food. Their burgers are great, and they have a new specials menu (as of May 2014)... The specials are Philly Cheesesteak, Turkey Club Classic, Italian Ciabatta Sandwich, French Dip or a Turkey Melt for $7.99. They include seasoned French Fries. With a soft drink, ends up being $10 or so... And the service is always wonderful. There are 22 seats at the bar, 8 round high-top tables, 17 high-top "4-seaters", 5 low-top "4-seaters", and 3 tables on the patio.. Smoking is allowed but the ventilation is good enough that it generally isn't a problem in my opinion. Service is always pretty quick -- during lunch hours, food takes from 5-10 minutes generally. But it is worth noting that as the hours progress beyond 5PM, it does get somewhat noisy as it begins to get crowded. I'd recommend it highly for lunch or for a quick pit-stop while traveling on I-75 -- as it is very easy to jump back on the interstate.Other amenities:11 flat-screen TVs mounted throughout the buildingTouchTunes Jukebox* Full-service barMegaTouch gaming system at bar counterGolden Tee Live 2014 (You'll be hard pressed to beat the infamous "Kroger Bucks")Front patio with several covered tables.Wi-Fi connectivityProbably more I'm not thinking of* TouchTunes jukebox is connected to a handful of decent speakers throughout. (These aren't always connected, thankfully. They turn them on / up as the night progresses and things get louder.) This jukebox is a touch-screen and can be controlled from your smartphone as well! Pretty cool.Thanks for reading! Hope this helps someone!

Locals kind of bar. Nothing to shake a stick at. The food was typical bar food but after seeing the bathrooms I wish I would have not eaten there.

This is a decent KY sports pub. We wanted to eat local on our trip from Michigan to Florida, so we stopped outside of Covington, KY for a bite to eat at KJ's. The waitress was doing homework, since it was a slow Sunday afternoon. The barmaid was chatting up the two or three people in there. It was smoky, but the decor was mildly entertaining and the seating was comfortable with great views of the TVs (showcasing three ESPN channels). We really liked the nachos (split them!). The husband got the black and bleu burger with fries and I got the mushroom and swiss burger with applesauce as a side. Way too much food for a road trip, but nice service and pretty tasty overall. Other than the smoky atmosphere, it was a nice place. If I still lived near Cinci/Covington, I would go back!

Music is good, but way too smokey!!! If you don't smoke, you won't be able to breathe! I really don't like going here because it seems everyone there smokes. If you do go, make it your last stop because you will stink when you leave from smoke.

I've been a patron for the past two years, the night time on Saturday and Sunday is not friendly and doesn't really like to wait on women. 2 weeks ago I visited on a Sunday night around 8ish and I was completely ignored by the bartender. I visited again on Wednesday and I sat there for a good 3-4 minutes and a guy walked in and he was immediately served, again it was the same bartender that completely ignored me on that Sunday evening. Not a good experience, she has no personality except towards men. I won't be back when she's working. If I walk in and I see her, I will turn around and leave. You should really think about if she is a good fit in your establishment

It's like the servers don't want you there or want to serve you. There is only one good tender there, Ashely. I was just there most recently and they have this one bartender that little looked like she just climbed out of bed. She looks cracked out, with wet hair, unflattering pants and a wrinkled T-shirt. Like wth, I was just thinking to myself the whole time like you really come to work like this?Yeah I know bartenders dress comfortable, but this cracked person looked like she just hopped out of bed and headed for her car. The main thing they have going for them is they are right off buttermilk and easy to get to. Probably what's keeping them in business.
