🏆 WE’RE IN THE SPOTLIGHT! 🏆

We’re incredibly excited to share this LINK nky Readers’ Choice Winner Spotlight featuring Sanctuary Social! 💚

From the winding drive through Sanctuary Village to the moment you find us tucked away in Villa Hills, being a little “off the beaten path” has always been part of our story. And we absolutely love that LINK nky captured what so many of you have told us:

✨ Sanctuary Social is a hidden gem.

The article shares a little of Andy’s journey, how Sanctuary Social came to be, our house-made recipes, smoked favorites, w**e & bourbon, live music, patio and lawn—and, most importantly, the atmosphere we’ve worked so hard to create.

One of our favorite parts:

“People come here… because it’s a great place to sit and mingle and talk. We don’t feel rushed. It’s a great atmosphere, and for some reason, this place facilitates conversation.”

That is exactly what we hoped Sanctuary Social would become. ❤️

To everyone who voted for us in the 2026 LINK nky Readers’ Choice Awards, has made the questionable GPS journey to find us 😂, told a friend about us, shared a post, left a review, attended an event, enjoyed dinner or drinks with us, or simply kept coming back—THANK YOU.

And to our Sanctuary Social team: this recognition belongs to you, too. Every plate, pour, conversation and guest experience helps make this little hidden gem what it is.

⭐ Our people make the difference. ⭐

Nothing means more to us than hearing that a guest had an unforgettable experience.

This week, we were honored to receive another 5-star review, and one of the biggest compliments wasn’t just about the food or drinks—it was about our team.

Our guest wrote:

“I can’t end this review without commenting on our server, Sydney… She’s one of the most interesting, insightful, intelligent young women you’ll ever meet. Make sure you come on a night she’s working!”

Sydney, thank you for representing Sanctuary Social with genuine hospitality and making every guest feel welcome.

We’re also incredibly proud of our entire team. Every plate from the kitchen, every handcrafted cocktail, every greeting at the door, every smile, and every conversation helps create the experience our guests remember.

To everyone on our staff—thank you for making Sanctuary Social a place people love to visit. ❤️

If you’ve had a great experience with one of our team members, we’d love to hear about it in a Google or Yelp review. Your kind words mean the world to us and help recognize the people who make it all happen.
