Came here after I had an afternoon/evening nap. It’s an amazing Pub to be at. The atmosphere is outstanding and, Liz the bartender, is a wonderful person. She is extremely kind & attractive. The interior is very well designed & it’s just a pretty cool place to be. I highly suggest anyone & everyone come here if you’re looking to relax & have a good time.

This is one of my favorite spots for a Guinness in Mainstrauss. It’s dog friendly with nothing but good vibes. They have a beautiful patio with big screens for the game. Kelly is an excellent bartender. I would highly recommend it.

Update 2: Went during a charity event, good fun for a great cause. They also sell merch (I bought a Paddy’s cap featuring the 3 dogs you’ll meet there).

Update 1: Dog friendly. Club vibe in the right half of building. Tuesday open mic is fun. Live music is great when they have it (check their calendar).

My favorite pub in Covington (it’s on Main Strasse btwn 5th & 6th). Great beers on tap.

There’s plenty of outdoor seating in front (where you can enjoy the street view and occasional live music) and along the side and in the back (with cozy seats and another bar).

They also have a TouchTunes. Mondays is industry night and it’s great fun (and the price is always right). Don’t forget to ask about shot specials and the mugs / steins up on the ceiling.

Robyn was outstanding! Truly the best Bloody Mary I’ve ever had in my life. She made great suggestions and man oh man that Bloody was the TRUTH. The Irish Breakfast shot was dang good too.

I love this place, lots of cool places to hang out at the bar. Outside, in the main bar or the disco dance club side. Owner cares about his customers and it shows. Dog friendly, Classy place and fun.

This bar was beyond disrespectful. My friend and I were kicked out for “using the bathroom at the same time” except we weren’t even in there together. One after the other, like normal people. Somehow, that was enough for the staff to accuse us of… what, exactly? They never explained. They just treated us with zero respect and threw us out like we’d done something wrong.

It wasn’t just the decision, it was the attitude rude, dismissive, and humiliating. We were paying customers, here to enjoy the night, and instead we were robbed of it for no reason.

If this is how they treat people, making assumptions and disrespecting customers instead of showing basic decency, then it’s not worth your time. There are plenty of better bars that won’t kick you to the curb for going to the restroom like a normal human being.

I was here on Monday. It was the best! The vibe is always great and the bartenders are amazing. I had Robyn that night and she was so personable and makes the best drinks! I will definitely be coming back!

Vibes are immaculate everytime I come! Drinks are reasonably priced and delicious. Andy is the GOAT! Always bringing the vibes and amazing customer service. My drink is never left empty. Love this place and come every Wednesday. I’ll see you there 😉

We never made it into the place. Our group of 6 and 2 other strangers walked away because a brunette female taking IDs was yelling “You’re not coming into this gate until I tell you.” She was dealing with a couple people in front of us. Her demeanor lost your business 8 different customers. That’s not a good look for your business This was around 11:10 PM on 9/20/2025.

I’m not a night owl and I normally hardly ever drink, my limit is “0” …but a young lady made me a drink called Purple Rain and it was seriously delicious … It was not too strong, it did not burn going down, and I actually drank the entire drink . I told her to surprise me and she definitely did just that. I’ve never been to Paddy’s on Main but I’ll have to take a few friends next time I go…thanks guys for a wonderful night out, cause normally that time of night I’m in a deep sleep …
