I went out for one night for santa con here and I was dancing here tonight with my friends, my guy friend picked me up while we were dancing and we were laughing and we were tipping very well, having a blast. a random bouncer came up to me and said " you have warning" ever since i will never come back here. i’ve been coming here for a long time over the years and they need to get new people. I work 24/7 and i come here and enjoy my time with my friends when i have the time. just know if you come here they will be extremely rude to you for no reason and attempt to kick you out. spend your money on somewhere else better than this place. I’ve never had a problem anywhere else and genuinely did nothing. the bouncer who said this warned my friend that i have " a warning" as we were coming out of the women’s bathroom and everyone was confused inside of the bar when he said this to her in front of everyone out of complete nowhere. Very unprofessional.I have been to a lot of bars and if i could give this place beyond a 0 star than I would. This bouncer was also flirting with a girl as we were giving our ID’s to get in and told me he made her uncomfortable. I have always recommended this bar to people to enjoy and now I will forever tell people this bar is not the place to go. good job killer queen. btw I am a girl!!
Walked in with my friend after a concert a few months ago - it was raining and we were the only two in the bar. The bartenders had terrible attitudes… made us feel super unwelcome and like they didn’t want to take the time to serve us. Just wanted to get paid to sit behind the bar and talk/not help anyone. We left before we even ordered. I’d expect a bar in Cincinnati be more welcoming to newcomers.. guess not. We were excited because it was the first bar we’d been to in the city! Sad that happened
Update: Still great! Their music is good, especially when they have a DJ. You can also watch sports on multiple TVs. New bar with great food at the Banks. I've already enjoyed it a few times and have many more beers and pizzas ahead of me there. Service is excellent and fast.
Visiting from out of town and stopped in Late Sunday evening befor Labor Day. Had to wait a long time. Not because it was busy, but because the female bartender that was attending my end was two busy pouring and taking shots with the female bartender that was to be tending the opposite side of the bar.
Such a hip little bat. Aesthetics are amazing. Women’s bathroom is the cutest design. And running into old friends on the staff was amazing. Dirty was the besssstt. And the Photo Booth is amazing. Cannot wait to get back
Last night, I had the pleasure of trying Killer Queen in the Banks District for the first time, and I was absolutely impressed by the stunning atmosphere and amazing venue. The bartender was extremely friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. However, the drink I tried wasn’t the greatest. I think there’s an opportunity to refine the bar program and create some truly excellent, crafty cocktails—exactly what the Banks needs. With just a little tweaking, they could easily become the go-to spot for top-notch drinks. I’ll definitely be back!
Pretty neat bar but slow with food. Friends got mixed drinks which they said were good and I got a beer. Would come here again it's got a good vibe.
