Ludlow Tavern

Aleta and John were present. Lights, music, bar mats. AESTHETIC. We ordered wings.

They said we have an issue with these things.

(Their Order for normal sized wings was mis-delivered. Instead of normal sized wings they were given incredibly small drums and flats)

The deal was 15 for 8

We said continue to demonstrate

Delicious
Affordable
Serious
Untouchable

To not walk through the door
And not enjoy yourself
Implies a character poor
Fine local spirits on the shelf

One of my absolute favorite spots in NKY and honestly in general. Aleta, John and Kansas Ryan are some of the most fun, hospitable and knowledgeable bar staff and owners around. As well as the rest of the staff! Always have a fun weekly food special in addition to their already awesome food menu. Great beers on tap and in can, as well as plenty of cocktail, wine, liquor options. You can’t go wrong by stopping here. It’s a must! Also- get that tavern sauce!!

We visited Ludlow Tavern on Elm after planning on dinner in OTR on Elm in Cincinnati. We just couldn’t pay 20 bucks for parking the night of an FC Cincinnati game. To start with drinks, we enjoyed the local bourbon catty corner to LT. Oak Eye. Next the house made fried pickles were the best I have ever had. I enjoyed the beef sliders and my husband opted for the house made vegetarian burgers. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!!

The wings are awesome. Good selection of bourbons. Very knowledgeable bar tender..

Great neighborhood spot with a relaxed atmosphere. Nice menu, good drink selections, and friendly staff! Always have great music playing and interesting and unique shows/sports on the tvs, while also having interesting tunes playing. Easy spot to grab a drink and actually have a conversation. Don’t sleep on the yummy food specials, too!

Nice, quant little tavern with good food. The slider and onion rings were delicious! Good drinks, too, and nice people.

We stopped there one night before going to a show down the street. We got a few beers, a few sliders, some fries, and some fried pickles. Everything came out super quickly, was incredibly delicious, was pretty cheap, and the service was great as well! There was one guy tending the bar and taking orders/running food and he was having conversations and providing great service. Definitely recommend making the trip to Ludlow just for this great hole-in-the-wall place! Well worth it!!

Psalms 18:11 says, “In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” According to Biblical scholars, this passage was written about the Ludlow Tavern around 930 BC. Which is appropriate, given the divine nature of their food, drinks, and atmosphere.

The weekly food specials are amongst the most creative and tantalizing ever unleashed unto humans. The rotating draft beer selections keep you devoutly attentive not only to your beverage options, but to the world around you as it changes. The atmosphere and staff are warm and comforting like a homemade quilt woven by an Appalachian grandmother.

I won’t merely suggest you visit the Ludlow Tavern, I will implore you to treat your soul to the nourishment that it deserves. So, visit the historic downtown Ludlow renaissance district and find yourself at the Ludlow Tavern.

This is my absolute favorite place to go! The food is always fantastic, the drinks are great, the staff are great… everything is great about this place! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat, drink and have fun!
Love the The Ludlow Tavern ❤

This spot was amazing and had really cool vibes with the lights they have up and the painting on the wall! It's only a mile away from my apartment and I will be returning very often! Found out they have Tito's Tuesday, not sure what it is yet but I'm sure I will find out soon enough.

Another staple for downtown Ludlow, located conveniently on elm street with plenty of street parking. Great drink selection and very friendly staff in a historic looking building. The inside is very cozy and the food is delicious. The sliders are always worth ordering and the drinks are always cold.

It was our first visit and it is a small location with good service and food and interesting wall art. Will return. Bartender was welcoming to first timers.

The absolute best food, atmosphere and most importantly, people. Ryan, Aleta and the rest of the LT team are always fun, welcoming, and kind. We visit the Ludlow Tavern often and always have the best time. Highly recommend.

Best staff, food, and location. Always an enjoyable time!

Set along the wild and wicked Ohio river, this is one place you do not want to miss on. This is a magical wonderland ran by some of the most lovely creatures you will ever meet. Some say that the bartender whom goes by the name of Ryan is the great descendant of King Arthur. Others will argue that he hails from angelic bloodline. You will never find another watering hole that is as lovely as this. The food is a slice of heaven and the drinks are second to none.

This is the quintessential bar. Attentive staff deliver great service and provide daily drink specials.
- Their small menu offers a surprising amount of “in house” made items (fried pickles, garden sliders, etc.)
- Awesome atmosphere here at the Tavern.. a hidden gem.

Just dropped in for a quick bite and food came fast and was good.

First visit, absolutely adorable place. The staff was so nice & friendly. Too cold to enjoy the outside patio, but will be awesome during good weather. Only went for cocktails, homemade margaritas, no pre-mix! & they were amazing! Heard the food is phenomenal, homemade, natural & fresh, local grown when available. Will post again when I go back for food.

The best wings in the Tri-state - Get them double dipped.. you will not be disappointed. Laid back vibe and ice cold beer!

Great spot to hang out while enjoying cold beverages, yummy food and pleasant conversation with the amazing staff!
