Small business with some of the most delicious handmade pastries and onigiri in the area. I have had countless lunches with friends in their cozy back room, and always take home a piece of matcha roll for later. It has a great location in the middle ...
Chako Bakery Cafe
small cafe with a fantastic vibe and a unique menu you cannot find anywhere else. I love their white rabbit latte while walking Covington on a cold day
KungBrew Cafe
Cozy bookstore cafe that also features wares from local artists. Delicious drinks and sandwiches
Roebling Books & Coffee - Newport
Dark academia bookstore cafe that makes most of their coffee syrups in house. Amazing handmade decor and book selection too!
The Hidden Chapter Bookstore
Can be a little crowded in the afternoon-school hours but both the bar and cafe are fantastic. My go-to is this croissant Sammy + a green greek smoothie. Their homemade donuts are also a winner.
Fort Thomas Coffee
Monthly menu of pastry flavors you literally cannot get anywhere else. Creator of the skyline chilli donut (don’t knock it till you try it).
Starlight Doughnut Lab
Restaurants
Great local pizza with the best parm cheese fries I’ve ever had. Their seasonal items are also super interesting. The crab Rangoon pizza has been my favorite. The all-black building is also a plus for me!
Padrino Fort Thomas
Pizza is always 10x better when you can watch them make it!
