Ghost baby lives up to its name in that it’s otherworldly good. Excellent drinks, amazing entertainment, and stupendous service. Amanda, our server, was responsive and impeccable. I cannot wait to come here again and bring more people. 10/10 you MUST come here if you go to any bar in Cinci.

Stumbled across this place last night. So fun and such a vibe. Malachi is an amazing host. Make sure you get the cocktails, the menu is fantastic.Kid-friendliness: This is a lounge for adults.

Definitely an must do experience!! So cool. We didn't order food but had a few drinks which were excellent. Service was great! It's cool that there is two sections. The one by the stage so it's a bit noisier but you're into the music so it's cool. The other is section is by the bar so it is more intimate and you can freely go back and forth between the two as you want. What a great time! I'll be back.

Atmosphere 8/10Pretty cool underground / Basement cocktail bar with live music on weekends. The bar is located 4 floors underground and has a cool wine cellar vibe. It has 2 rooms - Bar Room (without reservation) and Live music room (Reservation needed). Design elements from entrance to the bar go very well with the theme of a haunted place. Rumors say, that one can hear cheering noises of a ghost, if someone orders their “ghost’s favorite” (I totally made it up)Drinks 9/10Really liked their version of Manhattan, “Ghost’s Favorite”, which is served from a barrel. Nice touch to the presentation with a customized ice cube. Cool looking menu and decent selection. No coasters.Service 7/10Staff is attentive, however, no classic bartender experience. The team is mostly serving pre-mixed cocktails - even though they are good. Water is served only if asked. Prices are good for CincinnatiWould recommend to come on the weekend and reserve in advance for a live performance, which seemed to be fun!

Fun place, loud band in reserved area. If you want to talk take your chance on the front bar.

I'm really disappointed in this place. I love going to a speakeasy any time I travel to a new location. The staff said you don't need reservations... which is true for the front area. You need one for the music. I specifically asked if one was required before waiting in the long line in the cold. They need to be more transparent with information. The tables were sticky, and the drinks subpar. It's was so busy that I waited 30 minutes for recognition at the bar. Didn't even finish the drink. I will not be back.

This is just Southern enough to make me feel at home. I live in Cleveland and I missed my home in Nashville. This place reminds me of the old parts of Nashville before the gentrification. 11/10 would recommend

Went to ghost baby for a girls night out! Had an amazing time. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. The ambience was beautiful, and music was great. Drinks are pretty expensive but absolutely worth it, had the best filthy martini. Definitely making this one of our spots. ????✨
Cool space but not enough music for a jazz bar. Our 90 minute reservation had 5 songs or about 30 minutes of live music Its unclear why so little music. We were told band starts at 5, 530 it started and was over quickly

It was great! The love entertainment was fantastic and the spacing of people was perfect to enjoy the show without being too close to anyone. Highly recommend this as a date night for their cocktails and ambiance.

I only share one, vague, shot I took, because you need to see this space with your own eyes. I don't think pics do it justice.Situated some 40 feet below street level, this space has a rich history, and just drips cool with its vibe.My friends and I made a reservation as stipulated on the website, and were able to enjoy a lively New Orleans- style band. But, for the 'front' area of the space, which has its own bar, you don't need a reservation. I thought the sound would be overpowering for such an enclosed space, but the speakers were well-placed and the levels just right.The servers were kept on their toes for a busy late Sat night, so the delay in getting to us after we sat was certainly understandable. Yet, they were all courteous and professional, offering a smile, or a suggestion even if we weren't their table, and even did not rush us out as last call was sounded and the lights began to come up.This is my 5th time in Cincy for work, and I'd always planned to go. I'm glad it worked out that I got to finally experience what all the buzz was about.
