Fire up your AIM accounts, break out the frosted lip gloss and shimmy into your hawt denim-on-denim looks, Cincinnati: A new neighborhood bar fueled by nostalgic ‘90s and 2000s vibes is now open in Covington.
Doubt It calls itself the “sarcastically flirty” neighborhood bar that Mainstrasse was missing. Located at 424 W. Sixth St., the former home of Pachinko and then Green House Bar, Doubt It has created a space for bold cocktails, fun and community, all brought together by a cool pop-punk aesthetic of the ‘90s and aughts. Expect pops of neon colors, mini disco balls, greenery and funky, eclectic decor.
The space features plenty of seating, including at the bar, plus high-tops, and there are several televisions that will play movies, TV shows and music videos from the ‘90s and 2000s, plus Bengals games and more. You can also hang out on the enclosed patio, a.k.a The Porch, which has its own bar and TV.
On the menu, Doubt It features a variety of craft cocktails with names reminiscent of the era — like Justin Timberlake’s most iconic hairstyle, “Frosted Tips” (Hellfire coffee liqueur, vodka and vanilla cold foam), or songs like Britney Spears’ “Oops! … I Did It Again” (bourbon, strawberries, honey, lemon, Zucca and a mint spring) or Wheatus’ “Teenage Dirtbag” (basil gin, honey and lime). There is also a selection of “Remixes” — classic cocktails with a Doubt It-style twist — and ‘90s/2000s shots and “Bombs,” like the early 2000s fave, the Jäger Bomb.
Doubt It is open Monday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. and Sunday from noon to 2 a.m. Happy hour is 4-6 p.m. Monday through Friday, with $4 drafts, $5 wines and $6 specialty cocktails.
