Muggbees

We were in town for one night and wanted to find a local bar with music and pool tables and good beer prices. Found it! Bartenders were attentive, crowd was interesting. Brittany the waitress took care of us after we moved from bar to pool tables. Not fancy, but had a great time.

There are a few pros about this bar. They have cheap food, cheap alcohol, and it’s a fun place to let loose at. However, there are many cons. The restaurant is dirty and not well kept. In general the food is mediocre, the wings and burgers were the best things I’ve eaten there. During the week there is a decent crowd but on the weekends the crowd is very trashy! I do feel like the bar is attempting to attract a better crowd but who knows if that will happen. Also the restaurant is always thick with cigarette smoke. Basically I will only go here for cheap beer and food during the weekdays.

Food for our benefit was actually good. Great BBQ chicken. Once 10 o’clock hit the music was way too loud and the white trash of Boone County hit. This place could be great, cater to the wrong crowd. Don’t really like being here. Not a good choice for a normal human being out of the area to visit.

Went back after a terrible experience deciding to give them a chance to redeem themselves. Worst place to go. So dirty! Restrooms were flooded so I was directed to use the employee restroom in the back of kitchen. I walked through their back of house to the restroom to see a disturbing sight of such a dirty kitchen and flooded everywhere! Not to mention our server was either drunk or on drugs. We used to be regulars here but after this experience my friends and I will NEVER be back!

We love it here! The food is great, and very very reasonable priced! They also have great wing deals on Monday night, and Thursday nights is $ 5 burgers and fries. We go at least once a week. Don’t let the outside appearance stop you from going in. I’d like to think the outside isn’t the prettiest to keep their food prices low!

Been there 3 times lately the service was awesome the chili cheese fries is a good deal, havent had a bad meal there the draft beer is a plus.

The best steak in town! We went on a Thursday evening for the special steak dinner. It was put of this world! It came with a salad and a side which I chose a loaded potato. The steak was the best around. Not to mention it was enormous. We had to save over half of it for a rainy day. While eating our dinner we realized it was also Karaōke night. I not usually big into singing but I just busted out my favorite John Legend song. We had a great time. The staff was great and the DJ was the best. He even played my fiancées favorite line dance the Wobble for her. I highly recommend this place!

Don’t go. Avoid it. Matter of fact don’t even drive by it. The owners could give two flying you know what’s about any clientele they don’t know. If you have to eat go outside and chew on a tree… better off. First place deserving of a negative star ranking for me. So goodbye, goodnight and to the doctor for my tetnest shot I go.

I have never been to a bar where I was involved in 3 different altercations for no logical reason at all. Bad experience. Thankfully no jail time. Our server WAS nice though. Fairly efficient. And in all fairness, bouncers were not on shift tonight because of the storm. however still…

its an experience! (sarcastically)

I would never write a review of a place like this, because it is what it is. But on the off chance there are folks out there like me, I’m willing to do someone a solid.
I used to live in Florence and had just come back in town for the week. Instead of darting here and there all over Northern KY to catch up with friends, I decided to do a little Knights of the Round table action and have them come to me. So I picked the closest place to my parent’s house where I would not have to fear if I had a drink or two.
Thursday night went in and it wasn’t so bad. A very bad (and not in a good way –bad) was finishing up and then regular music came on. Ok. still at a decent decible level. Had a good time catching up, left.
Friday night, went in with a different set of folks and let me tell you, the 12am show is much different than the 10pm show if you know what I mean. I could hear the music from the parking lot, but was still optimistic we’d be able to hang, catch up, and have a few drinks. WRONG!
After about a 30 minutes and my ears bleeding. I kindly asked the waitress if the DJ would mind turning down the music just a smidge so we could hear ourselves think, and I could hear my friends standing about 4 inches away from me. She responded «He’s a d*ck. but you could try.»
Really?!
A. Why would you employ someone that is a known a$$hole, and B. You should do it anyway because from the looks of it, my friends and I are going to spend a lot more in here if you apease us, than playing bad late 90’s music playing up to the skanky girls with the middle aged biker dudes trying to hit on them.
Next time, we’ll take our cash somewhere else. Good luck with that DJ.

Used to love this place and then THE WAITRESS FROM HELL= how can anyone be a waitress and be so inattentive and get everything wroong– worst waitress ever, But we figured what the hell we’ll go back (since we’d been going there alot because we’re bikers) — Got the same damn waitress– déjà vu!!! So seriously bad my husband refused to go there again-that’s really bad. Oh the food is not bad, ambience– local bar

OMG!!! Talking about Trash, no literally the whole bar was Trashy people. First all there was a cover charge, in Florence Ky, are you kidding me. in Florence to go in this trashy bar. I was intoxicated until we went to this bar. Boy did it sober me up quickly. Talking about culture shock. If you have some decency I would not recommend this bar if you call it bar.

Yarr, fetch me grog!
I’m going to nerd out here for a moment. You ever play the Monkey Island games from back in the day? That bar you go at the beginning? That reminds me of Muggbees. A working class bar, right on the edge between suburb and rural, where the very large men working there are a necessity to handle any folk who choose to be a tinge uncivilized.
Through a combination of hilarious events that evening, I arrived at Mugbees with 4 women in tow. I wish I could say I was normally that awesome, but that evening luck dealt me a pretty nice hand of cards. Cover was $ 3, for really no reason whatsoever. I had $ 2 cash, and one of the girls instantly gave me a beer. I explained to the very rotund gentlemen, even opened my wallet, that I was a dollar short. I was hoping, ever so hoping, that they could waive a buck for the guy who singlehandedly removed the sausagefest moniker from joint that evening, and had a beer purchased for him within 10 seconds of walking in the door. The look he gave me is one I will not soon forget. I don’t think a hundred Chuck Norris’s could have made this guy budge on that dollar. He glanced at me with a look of utter disdain. There was no yielding on this. If it were possible for someone to control their facial muscles to simulate a brick wall, this fellow did it.
I bummed a dollar from one of the girls.
So we all find a spot at the bar. I kept my one single beer at that since someone had to drive that night, and it certainly wasn’t going to be my companions. That opinion was immediately reinforced when one of them spilled their drink on themselves. I motioned to the bartender to get some napkins when I saw he had an eyepatch.
Oh my god. This night just got so much better.
So I get the Napkin Hookup (which would make a good band name) from Captain Drunk, and the girls are all over their inebriated selves cleaning up the mess. At this point some gentlemen started to take notice. Unilocalers, I’m not a large fellow. The guy who decided to come over and join our conversation was. I never felt he was a threat, but one of the girls said later how he was kind of creepy. So, keep that in mind.
After a few drinks, we were out of there for the next destination. So, my short time at Mugbees can be summed up thusly:
* Customer satisfaction is not really a priority
* Pirate Bartender
* Creepy dudes
* Bad country music
* Restroom harbors new and unseen forms of life
* Cheap beer
If that’s what you’re looking for, then go nuts.

Umm, err, Muggbees. They have pretty decent bar food and I’ve been there more than once but other than that I can’t think of anything nice to say. So let’s move on to the negatives:
* I had a bartender who was purposely ignoring his customers and when he did wait on us he made it clear we were disturbing him.
* I once saw a heavily intoxicated chick climb onto the bar and do some pretty un-​ladylike things that have permanently scarred me. This was on a weeknight at 8 pm.
* On the weekends, Muggbees turns into a hillbilly discothèque. Music inexplicably varies from Toby Keith to 50 Cent. And you will see 40-​year-​olds rocking the Electric Slide.
* If you’re looking for a fight, this is the place to be. Luckily, the cops quickly show up, since they’re waiting across the street in the gas station parking lot.
I wouldn’t normally review a place like Muggbees, but I’ve known too many unknowing folks who have made the mistake of going here for a burger only to discover they’ve walked into a pre– Patrick Swayze Roadhouse.
