Johnny Kaw's Waldo

My weekend lunch experience at this shots bar was very good. The burger basket ($5 every day) was ready just 10 minutes after I ordered at the bar (no table service). It was delicious, with two thick, perfectly cooked, lean beef patties and cheese (but without lettuce or tomato). The seasoned curly fries were very good, and the portion size was generous. There was an extensive shots menu with prices ranging from $2 to $5, lively background music, plenty of seating around the bar, a seating area, dart boards, and a patio. Overall, very nice, and a good value!

Dropped in yesterday for a couple shots & drinks. We ordered the Kamikaze & Gummy Bear shots. Reasonably priced shots with a variety of selections. $2 beers on Wednesday. I think it was just a Wednesday special. Bartender was great! I will visit again.

I'm staying close to Waldo and they have a big $2.50 beers all day every day. Really caught my attention. Seven TVs tuned mainly to sports. That's good. Seems to be a locals place. You can google Johnny Kaw Wiki and get the story. Kind of believable. I was here last night and I swear I saw Ivanka Trump and back again tonight and I think I see Ted Cruz hitting on someone. Might be a republican bar. But fun anyway.

A bar centered on shots and bombs...I had found my personal Utopia. The general concept of this bar is $2-$5 bombs and shots. Yes, they have other stuff like beer and mixed drinks but I feel like you're missing the point if you're not there for the shots. We stopped here for A drink, which turned into 6 shots which is pretty easy here. Security seemed high, I can imagine things can get out of control quickly. The drink selection (lots of creativity and wide array), music, and prices are top notch here. The service (bartenders busy flirting with each other) and actual alcohol content are just AOK. I need one of these bars in Cincinnati ASAP.

Two words: hidden gem. I cannot think of a bar in the metro where you can get a double cheeseburger, fries and a alcoholic beverage for $10 or under... AND the food be actually good. It's marketed as a shot bar, but they also serve basic cocktails, beer, and wine. The menu isn't large, but everything they offer is pretty good! I dislike writing this review because this is also a great place to watch sports games and it not be terribly slammed. The service is good as well, and while sometimes understaffed, they remain friendly and quick as they can be. Long story short, it's my go-to bar in the area.

Great little bar with $2 Dom bottles all day every day. Large selection of fun shots. Morgan provided great service at the bar. We had a fun time.

Ok how about that $2 beer deal? Huge fan. I came here with a few friends after a casual dinner party and we had a blast. The drinks are cheap, and if you're willing to pay for shots, they're delicious! The only complaint that I would have would just be the size of the place! I would love to bring a group of friends here in the future, but there is no telling if there will be space for us to sit down on any given night!Overall, I had a great time here and the atmosphere/location and perfect for a fun night out!

UPDATE: New owners... Haven't been in yet since Shot Stop closed.Shot Stop review: A fun sports bar with a big variety of crazy-named shots like "Blue Balls" and "Broken Down Golf Cart" which are rotated and updated periodically.My wife and I loved their "Pork Wings" but unfortunately the last time we went back they had been taken off to menu. They were delicious and need to come back!!Bring back the Pork Wings and this place gets 5 STARs again...

Want to feel young again? Then come to this shot bar. A quiet older crowd in the afternoon that turns into an early-20 something free for all in the evening.Still a fun place to drop in for a beer.

This is a small venue located in the Waldo district that is a great bar with a wall of delicious shots
