Located just a few minutes walk from Newport on the Levee, this comfortable saloon rocks the old school steamboat theme, with miniature paddle boats and other nautical elements decorating the walls and ceiling. We popped in on a Saturday night because we knew Mansion Hill would be hosting a live blues band, called the Blue Ravens. The show was great, and it was obvious these guys had been jamming together for a long-time because of their excellent synergy. We ordered a Long Island Iced Tea and a Beam and Coke, which only set us back $9. Not bad, considering both were tall and strong (just the way we like them). We were kind of disappointed they didn't serve food (only offer lunches through the week), but the kind bartender suggested that order Pasquale's down the road, who deliver there all of the time. The crowd (mostly 35 years old +) was laid back and happy to see newcomers. Though the bar was empty when we arrived (about 8 pm), the place was full by the time the band started at 9. We'll definitely be back.

Having never been to covington, i yelped our possible destinations and reading the reviews for MANSION HILL TAVERN, i knew it was exactly what we were looking for - and i could not have been more CORRECT. A cheap corner dive bar with everything you could possibly want - cheap drinks, great live music, friendly staff and patrons. there's even a small open air patio for when we got there - to just hang out and talk, before we moved closer to the band. I would definitely go again next time i am in town.

Carol the bartender was friendly. Was here at 3pm and Love the atmosphere dive barish. Cheep drinks double Beam and Coke 6.50. Is a smoking establishment so that may put people off. Would come back. Be Awesome!

You want to throw back a brew with the locals and jam, this is your place. No fuss and no 'tude. All blues, all good. It will make you move.

If you are looking for some great blues, jazz and/or vintage rock music, look no further than Mansion Hill. The place has a great vibe, but can be very smokey. On the night I visited, the average age skewed toward 30 something, probably a reflection of the type of music that was being played. It was "The Heaters" and they were great!

Mansion Hill is a neighborhood bar in the historic district of Newport, KY. The space is usually filled with bar cats and blues fans, all ages 40 and above. Inside it's dark and uninviting, a large wooden Indian greets you at the door. I hate to admit it but it's a little spooky. They offer some pub grub but I tend to head out after one drink. The Hill's biggest selling point is the music. You can find seasoned and new blues musicians playing at the bar every weekend and many weeknights.

This is one of my all time favorite neighborhood bars. You walk in, and you think you're in a small town bar. Then, if it's a friday or saturday night, the band starts up, and you realize your hearing some of the best blues in the area. There's also a great little patio out back that faces the street. No food, but strong drinks and great people. This is a place I always try to take weeked visitors.

Quaint, great dive tavern down in Newport off the beaten path! Small and not a college age bar. We didn't stay long, had live band on Saturday. 5$ cover

Too much smoke!!! I really wanted to like this place, but the heavy smoke was just too much to put up with. I was only there for 15 minutes but when I got home, my clothes stunk badly of smoke and they had to go right in the washer, and I had to get in the shower. If you smoke, this place is perfect for you. If you don't smoke, you will not be able to handle it.

Not a bad place. I happened upon this place on the way back to my car with my friend, and we decided to stop in. I believe this bar takes cash only - no credit card, so be prepared for that. This is also a smoking bar, so if you have problems with smoke, you should go elsewhere. Their "No Smoking Section" isn't much to talk about, but I have to say overall, the smoke didn't seem to bother me during the half an hour I was there. We happened to be there on St. Patrick's day and they had food specials...to bad I had already eaten, but the prices were phenomenal. They also had a band...not you're typical loud screaming band, but a...shall we call it a bluegrass band...i think that's the best way to describe it. I was skeptical about the bands based on reviews before we went in, but it was quite nice. Lastly, the service staff and many of the patrons were very friendly. Our interaction was limted, but they all seemed to have a pleasant disposition.

Stopped in for a beer during what should have been happy hour. There were maybe 15 people there. Decent enough surroundings but what was not decent enough was the smoke. I had to leave because it was so bad. A business has every right to allow smoking and I respect that and generally tolerate it. This is the exception. Maybe at night when the doors and windows are open it would be ok.

When it comes to blues bars, look no further. Mansion Hill Tavern boasts some of the best live blues music in the Cincinnati/Newport/Covington area. Aside from the music, you have a solid menu that is a step up from hole-in-the-wall bar food. You'd never expect from looking at this place that you could get a decent salad, burger, or freshly-made soup... but you can, and you won't be disappointed! I personally think is is a bit dark upon first glance when you enter, but the employees, patrons, and live music totally make up for it. The street parking in the area is mostly for residents only, but across the street is a free lot so I've never had any problems finding a spot to park in for cheap (or for nothing)! The one downside to Mansion Hill Tavern is the same as any other NKY bar -- smoking. I hate coming home smelling like an ash tray. Otherwise, this place is a great bar to go to!

I love this place! I went last night (a Friday) with a friend who lives right down the street to listen to the blues band. This is my kind of a place: neighborhood bar within walking distance, cash only bar and of course the entertaining regulars. However, this place has the added bonus of having a really great blues band playing. I was way impressed by the guys playing. I can see myself stopping in here frequently this summer on the weekends for good music and cheap beer.

Met a friend here for lunch today. Though I've passed by for many years, I've never had anyone to "meet" so I've never gone inside as I didn't want to saddle up to a bar by my lonesome. Found a close parking spot right on the street, though at night this might be trickier with the Mansion's proximity to Newport on the Levee. I was welcomed warmly by the bartender, and saw my friend at a table near the back of the room. She and her husband come here often, and love it. I think I could, too. A completely relaxed atmosphere, where regulars are open and friendly and don't make you feel like you don't belong. The lunch menu is simple and straightforward--sandwiches, soups, salads. The special today was a grilled ham and cheese on rye, and that sounded good on a cold, grey day. Served with pickles, tomato, lettuce and a pack of mayo on the side, and an order of fries, perfectly proportioned, perfectly grilled, An all around good lunch selection. This is a bar, so there is smoking. Wasn't too bad at lunch, but I could see how it could get a little heady in there when crowded. Would love to come again and catch some live music, though.

First time visit a few weeks ago. Bar is nicely kept, staff is friendly and so were the patrons. They had a live jam session going which was playing some appropriate bar tuneage (Eagles, CSN&Y, etc). Bar is CASH only, no credit cards. They do have some outdoor seating too. The regulars each have a Troll doll assigned to them based on their personality which was a cool touch.
