Great mixed drinks, excellent attentive bar tenders, very good atmosphere. They had a band that was fantastic when we went.

I don’t go to bars often and don’t drink, however, the experience that I had earlier tonight at their Karaoke night was phenomenal. The environment was welcoming and there were non- alcoholic options to choose from on their menu. Definitely a 10/10 experience!

My husband and I both got cocktails for my birthday. There were two bartenders working, neither one were really welcoming or looked up from their phones. As we sat, one bartender yelled at a patron to sign his bill… obviously a standard to sign a bill but still concerning to see how aggressive the bartender was being… I’ve had better service and cocktails at close by bars. I recommend spending your time and money elsewhere. I had high hopes for a bar with a history!

Great music, bartenders are lacking knowledge, have been going there for years, asked for a mojito, came without any limes, just mint rum and soda?

My friends and I come to japps all the time and always have the best time! There is so much character in the space and the bartenders are always delightful and attentive. Special shout out to one of the bartenders Ryan, every time I go there he always remembers my drink preferences and has the best recommendations when I want to try something new! This is the perfect spot to go to on the weekdays for a happy hour drink or on the weekends if you want to dance. Highly recommend 10000/10. Oh and there’s a photobooth (;

Lovely ambiance, can range from very chill during the week to a place to go dancing on weekends, Ryan makes a balanced old fashioned with enough bitters to soothe my bitter heart. 10/5 stars.
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.

The bartender Meg is absolutely fabulous. An exceptional bartender, and growing her mastery of her craft every time. She is a must see and a centerpiece of the establishment
