Not only is it an adorable little town, it was a very cool bar the atmosphere cool as well. The nacho chips are made fresh and amazing.

We came for my wife's birthday and really enjoyed it. We started with the Buffalo Chicken Dip…read moreappetizer and it was good, though the chips were supposed to be homemade but seemed slightly stale. We moved on to the Filet for dinner and it was well prepared; not an amazing filet (not as tender as I have had) but a good steak for the money. During our time we enjoyed a few cocktails that is one of the highlights of their establishment. We got there before live music started. Upstairs they had quite a line dancing event going on and we heard the stomping above us. There were a lot of folks there for line dancing, then, later, for the live music. Our waitress was good and checked on us often. Nothing but positive things to say about the overall experience.

The drinks are equally impressive, with a well-curated cocktail list and bartenders who clearly know their craft. What really sets The Reserve apart is the atmosphere. It's stylish without being pretentious, lively without being overwhelming, and always welcoming. Whether you're planning a night out with friends, a date night, or just want to unwind after a long day, The Reserve is easily the best place in the area for nightlife. It combines quality, energy, and service in a way few places can.

We've been here several times for concerts and we've never had a bad experience. The bathrooms are…read morealways clean, there are food vendors throughout the concourse, and there's no bad seat in the house. There's a large "patio area" out front so during the summer they have a small stage with local bands, tables/chairs set up, and a small bar. There are always great concerts that come through this venue. It's definitely a 5-star facility in this small East Kentucky town.

I have yet to be let down here. Ashley, my server, was so attentive. She was on top of her game and even provided some nice conversation. The atmosphere is always amazing, I love this place! If you stop and visit, I'm sure you'll share the same sentiment.

Second time here, this time for Corbin Tourism and Convention Commission's Restaurant Week. We had…read morethe dish the Shrimp Alfredo and is so delish! We wanted to attend the Billiards Tournament but it was canceled due to illness. This place is more an event venue that what you would expect for a restaurant. It has two full bars inside, a outside tiki bar, a large dance floor and outside stage. So if you enjoy concerts and other similar events, this place is for you. This may be suited best for large groups. Also if they are having a concerts, if you just plan on having a drink, (Cover is $12.00) don't expect to get in if you are not interested in the concert. it wold be more geared toward, girls night out, game night or karaoke, it may be a great place. Beer was ok, and food was average, nothing bad, just not my atmosphere.

My margarita was bad, tasted piney. Baked potato was huge and very tasty. Coleslaw was very good. French fries were hot, soft, and not crisp. The building is really awesome. An actual ice house converted into a large area with a stage for band, and another smaller room. We enjoyed the decor and ramp to use. Cute outhouse at entrance by the ramp. Service was excellent as we were the only customers at 4:00 pm. Very friendly.

I ordered the Cuban with jalapeños added, and while it wasn't the traditional Cuban I usually expect, it was absolutely delicious and so satisfying. The atmosphere was great too -- nice open outdoor seating, live music playing, and an overall fun vibe. Service was quick, prices were reasonable, and our server was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. Definitely a spot I'd stop at again if I'm in the area!

I wish I had ordered BONE IN chicken wings…read more Instead, I made the mistake of ordering boneless wings (spicy pickle dry rub) and a burger (regular) and both were beyond disappointing. I split the burger and the boneless wings with a friend and we ordered an app for the table to split (Mediterranean Ranch Fries). In total, we spent about $50 and it was a complete waste of money. I would go back to try just the regular wings, but I wouldn't make a special trip. The staff was busy but nice and took care of our larger party with smiles and focus. There is a lot of outside seating and indoor seating as well, but the outdoor area is great for groups and friends looking to enjoy the fresh outdoors and a meal.

However, this place clearly gets packed in the evening. There were lots of brews and ciders. They seem to rotate quite a bit, and there's a mix between local options and options from other states. A huge plus is very LGBTQ+ friendly without explicitly being a queer spot. Rainbows everywhere. The bartender told us that a local podcast offered to make them coasters and he said yes, but only if they make them as queer as possible. They were playing some alt music on a record. Also, locals were super friendly and engaged us tourists in convo. Lastly, there's a limited selection of games- so we played a little trivia game and had fun with it. Overall, I would definitely include this spot when bar hopping again. It is an easy walking distance of a lot of great stuff and it was easy enough to get to, even though it isn't on the main drag. Great spot!

I was in Bristol for a long weekend with my wife and we were looking for breweries and cool spots…read moreto visit during the evening hours. We saw Elserbrew's menu and though we should stop in. It's on a small, one way side street but there was parking nearby. When we approached the front door we instantly noticed they were LGBTQ+ friendly which made it even better. Our stop was early in the evening, probably around 5 so it wasn't busy. We were greeted by a friendly bartender and he gave us time to look over the menu. My first choice was the Limonada Hard Italian Soda. This was absolutely delicious! The tartness from the lemons was noticeable but not over powering and this was a very drinkable beverage. I don't like seltzers at all, yes this wasn't a seltzer but it did have a bit of carbonation that I did not mind. The other customers inside were friendly but not awkward, especially for us being the only 2 women in there at the moment the bartender was super friendly and they had a nice selection of local brews from the area. My wife ordered a peanut butter and jelly beer from the Knoxville TN area as her 2nd drink. PB & J beer doesn't sound so appealing but OMG it was phenomenal. It was the perfect balance and tasted like a PB&J liquid sandwich. Honestly I can wait until I find some in the store nearby. This is a nice, no frills, friendly stop yo grab a drink in Bristol.
