A long time, top notch cocktail bar in downtown Cincinnati (in the Over-The-Rhine area). Nice lounge / sofa seating. Karaoke too (check their socials).

They have great specialty cocktails, but can make most anything, including zero proof mocktails (they also have N-A beer).

It's 50 feet from the 12th and Main streetcar stop (also called Hanke Exchange Station).

We’ve been here a couple of times and always really enjoy it. Good drink menu. Band we just saw was AMAZING. We went on Saturday october 26th recently and had iffy service because of one bartender. One bartender (dressed as a pirate) was great. We had no complaints. The other (a man probably between 30-40 with gingerish(?) hair) was the most unpleasant bartender I’ve ever experienced. Looked extremely annoyed when we walked in at 6 and were some of the only customers. Acted annoyed that we had to look at the menu. Aggressively shoved through some of our group later on to clear our table that some of us were still sitting at/drinking at. He just seemed like he really hated his job from the moment we walked in and didn’t seem pleasant with other customers either. His demeanor was off with everyone and it was very off putting. I watched him with people outside of our group and he was extremely short with each customer/didn’t smile once. I do think they needed more bartenders that night but for the first hour we were there, it was not busy at all. We will be back but I hope that man finds another job. The other people were great! I hope the band returns.
