Guidebook for Cincinnati
Drinks & Nightlife
Architecturally, this place is amazing! In all honestly, the building is our favorite thing about this brewery. The food is second & the craft beer is third. Do yourself a favor & check out this place. The “Tub of Love” is our favorite appetizer sampler but we always order extra wings too. There is a Streetcar stop right in front of the building & Rhinegeist Brewery & Findlay Market are very close by.

This brewery is one of our favorites! This brand new facility (less than a year old) is 2nd to none! There is a beer for every type of beer lover out there & you can bring the kids...& your dog too. Inside & outside seating offers plenty of space & this is a brewery you will likely hear more about, if you haven't already.
Plus, there is a pizzeria inside! Catch-A-Fire Pizza offers a lot of gourmet specialty pizzas, all cleverly named after Bob Marley songs. We always get the Fire Bites (appetizer) & "Three Little Pigs" pizza. I mean....pizza & beer...how could it get any better?!

This is another excellent Cincinnati brewery. They have one of my favorite local brews in their "Coffee,Please". Worth a try if you are a stout-lover, like myself! They have something for every palate too.
This is an awesome place to grab a nice dinner too. There is a large outdoor patio & some nights they host a jazz band. Great beer, great food, great place!

Food Scene
Hands down our favorite restaurant in Cincinnati. A white table cloth establishment, so you will spend some money. We go here for special occasions & for celebrations. The food is unbelievable! We've NEVER had a bad experience. Ask for Chad as your waiter & he will pair your food with the perfect glass of wine every time!
A cheaper option here is their cheeseburger ($15)...it's worth every penny!

Great local pizza shop. Located in OTR, the building is really cool. They have the largest pizza we know of. One large will feed us & both of our kids! There is a cool bar upstairs too. It can fill up later in the night so we suggest taking kids in the afternoon or early evening.

Within waking distance. Great for a stroll in your host Village of St Bernard. This is the busiest DQ we've ever seen so you should expect to see a small line at all hours & will likely run into some locals.

Quite simply...this is a Cincinnati classic/staple!
There is one in St Bernard, too, but this location is our favorite & is open 24 hours. Cincinnati chili is not for everyone but it is, without a doubt, something that is uniquely "Cincinnati". Grab a 3-Way (spaghetti w/ chili, onion, & cheese) & a Cheese Coney (hot dog w/ chili, cheese, mustard, & onion) & eat like a local!
When finished, take a walk down Ludlow Ave to check out all of the shops & grab some Graeter's Ice Cream (another Cincinnati classic/staple). If you like ice cream...we guarantee you'll love this!

This Is one of my favorite spots to hit for lunch downtown. It's affordable & delicious! They grill fresh meats from their meat market from 11am - 2pm, Tuesday - Friday (weather permitting). The Italian Sausage & Cheeseburger are my favorite "go-to" options but they have much more. If you're checking out a Reds day game...this would be a great lunch before the game. If you're lucky, you'll be able to snag one of the 4 or 5 tables they have set up on the sidewalk (in the shade during lunch) but they have additional seating in their deli too. I just discovered this place a few months ago & have been there 3 times already!

This is a locally owned & operated gem in the heart of St Bernard. The family that owns it is great & they only live a few blocks from where you're staying! JuJuBeans is within waking distance & is the perfect place to get your day started by grabbing a coffee in the morning. This is another place you're likely to run into a local resident or two. Be sure to introduce yourself to Laura &/or David & let them know that your staying with us! I included a few coupons in the welcome book you'll see right when you arrive!

Shopping
This is my "hat store". They have a great selection of Fidora's & the customer service is the best. Ms. Greta will greet you as soon as you walk in & will be happy to help you find the perfect hat for your head! She's awesome & one of the reasons I love to go back. She'll have you feeling like a million bucks with the hat(s) she matches you with. I like to go in to look, but always end up leaving with a hat...or two...or more.
This is a local spot & they have clothing, blankets, shoes, etc. Ludlow is a great street to walk & explore too. There's a little something for everyone.
