50 Best Pubs in Cincinnati

“Had a great time here last Thursday evening. Robert the bartender was the reason we enjoyed our night so much. He was friendly, welcoming and very funny. It’s a nice casual spot in Mt Adams to watch a game or just hang out with Robert!! We tried to return on Saturday night but it was so packed we couldn’t get in. Thanks for the great service, Robert. Hope to see you during our next visit.“

“MOTR continues to be one of the best places to see both local and touring acts in Cincinnati. OTR is a special place, so having MOTR in the center of it - as the center of it - is really awesome and something I appreciate. Also, who doesn't love super crispy tater tots?“

“The food and service was great!“

“Truly a wonderful experience. I have been here before and it was awesome. Brought my boyfriend to try it. His grandma is from England. He grew up with all these dishes. Loves to cook them. The environment & great food brought back many good memories of her. Thank you for that!!! Our server was genuine, efficient & friendly. Yummy food. I had your Fish- wow! The best!!! Thank you!!! ❤️.“

“Take out order for 3. French dip, not as described, bun not toasted tasted old and the ajus was onion soup, so thick you couldn't dip your sandwich in it. All our fries soggy cold half cooked. You couldn't pay me to go back there. Big disappointment after reading reviews.“

“Popped in on Saturday night to see our friends in That One Party Band!! First time there and we had a blast!“

“Love this place!! Great food, and great atmosphere! Very cheap too!“

“Great place, great people, music darts and pool!“

“Friendly neighborhood pub. Not sure if they serve food. Only saw popcorn. Drink prices reasonable, pours were generous. D.J. was soinnin' some great music. He did an 80's block that took me back to the ridin the rails skatin days. Thumbs High. ?“

“I love this place 🥰. Sammy is the best bartender, always trying new drinks.“

“Nice neighborhood bar with a mixed crowd. I usually visit during the day before the nightlife hits. Reasonably priced drinks and tasty wings. I've noticed the staff tends to leave you alone...this is great when you don't want to be bothered and bad when you want a drink refresh.“

“Bartender made my night very cool girl. Was Monday karaoke night and was older folks singing very old songs but it ended when I arrived which for me was good.

Parking: Tons of parking and very handicapped accessible

Kid-friendliness: It's a bar kids not welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: Great no issues“

“Highly recommend! Great service, great food and even better drinks! Atmosphere is chill and the staff is always friendly. Love this place and will continue to visit. Simply the best place in Delhi!!“

“It was a great experience from service to food. Highlights includes: The scotched egg was perfectly cooked. The duck fat fries was hot and not greasy. The goat cheese and honey butter on the bread board melted in our mouths. Totally good meal.“

“First visit. Got the special… best French Dip sandwich I’ve had. Baguette was perfection for this dish. Will be back.“

“Great neighborhood bar. Great bartenders, fantastic beer selection, but if you’re looking for food, you’re in the wrong place go across the street or next-door to Mo Chico or Tequila.. This is my favorite neighborhood. Hang out. Parking on the street or across the street in the Paige lot, or behind building on free parking deck.“

“Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere! Very friendly staff and amazing beers! 10/10 recommend!“

“A quiet and welcoming little nook nestled amongst all the glitter of nearby franchises it offers a simple and inexpensive menu. We were greeted quickly upon arrival and offered our choice of seating. Bartenders and waitstaff introduced themselves and genuinely inquired about how your day has been. If you’ve been here before they remembered you. Dinning was relaxed and easygoing, no rush to order or pressure to upsell you. Food arrived quickly presented simply but attractively. Prices are reasonable and much lower than surrounding venues. Thanks for a really good experience Ian. Anytime I’m in Cincinnati I’ll be coming back.“

“Outstanding crew here does all they can to assure you enjoy your visit. Great drinks, excellent beer selection, and a marvelous menu“

“Absolutely the best burger you can get. This place is a historic gem and an icon of Cincinnati“

“Wings are so good from here. I also really enjoy the fried pickles and Mozzarella sticks are delicious. Drinks are good and not over priced. The back patio is a nice touch. Being able to take your drinks out and smoke is great to. Fun local bar. Definitely will be back.“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Crows Nest is a west side staple. I last minute showed up with 25 people for a birthday - they had wonderful food and great staff that accommodated a crowd in a professional manner and were extremely kind. Highly recommend this place for their food and atmosphere!“

“Can’t be. Better place to Eat and Drink Food is Outstanding and so are the Drinks The other great thing is the outside Seating and the Groups they Schedule to Play Outside Go McCoys!!!!“

“wonderful and inviting bar with great people! Music is amazing and the owner is top notch!!!“

“great food and very generous portions“

“amazing people feelings like home great bartenders the owners are loving people ❤️💜“

“Best dive bar around the madville mariemont area.“

“Friendly, neighborly atmosphere. Service was excellent! Best burger you will have“

“Fun atmosphere! Very friendly patrons!“

“It's really heartwarming to see a mini curbside food pantry there also that you can contribute to and share your extra blessings with people. I like that these are popping up in the city. I've seen one in Northside also, by the old IGA and rec center.“

“So fun. ! I love it here.“

“I really like this place. The drinks are cheap, bartenders are friendly, and Pac Man for a quarter. Usually pretty laid back during the week, but can get lively on weekends. Nothing flashy or hip, just a little neighborhood hole in the wall done just right.“

“I haven't been here in like 4 years but I still think about the Yo Mama Burger on a regular basis. It's honestly a crazy thing to put into your body but it was without a doubt the best hamburger I've ever had. I hope one day I'll go back to Cincinnati and do it again.“

“I’ve been looking for a place here in Cincinnati that can make me a Lobster and Crab grilled cheese like I had at the LAX airport a few months back. They were able to add the lobster to a grilled cheese but not the crab meat and it was good just a tad bit salty but I would definitely try again. Really appreciated them making the accommodation. Rest of the food was good except for the Coleslaw, just too different for my taste. Bacon cheeseburger was better than average. Mozzarella sticks were ok. Waitresses was ok, not as conversational as we are use to but serviceable. Price was reasonable for 2 meals, a speciality sandwich, and an appetizer. We agreed to give this establishment a 8 out of 10 overall. Definitely will return.“

“Every Tuesday my coworkers and I come to hanks because Chris and Josh just know how to take care of their people. The laughs we have with them make it worth it every time. Couldn’t come here and have a blast like we do without them. Wouldn’t want to frequent this pub knowing they weren’t there. Thankful for Josh and Chris’ service. They are our favorite!“

“Juut the place to relax & have fun“

“The atmosphere inside is like no other. The Greenwich is a hidden gem in Cincinnati. Jazz, Blues, Big Band, Recitals, Orchestra, Spoken Word, Funk, R&B and Pure Love! Great place to work. My coworkers are awesome. So is my Boss. I have to say The Artists are my absolute favorite. I love each and everyone of them. Art lives and breathes in the Greenwich and I feel special to be part of such a special place. The drinks are cheap, the private live events I work have changed my life. The guests are something special too. Some have become life long friends. I would recommend you be a part of history because this place is actually historical.“

“Nice, relaxed atmosphere.“

“I plan events all over the Cincy area and I have to say this staff is phenomenal. Easy to work with, always professional with a “we will make it work” attitude.“

“Fab little bar that is not that little, it turns out. Terrace at the back. Two bars, set up in shotgun formation (long and narrow).

Friendly staff. Good selection of draft beers and other drinks (including hard seltzers and ciders).

Parking was a bit tricky, but I eventually found something (paid) on the street.“

“We loved our food at APG! The wait staff was awesome and there was no wait!! Can't wait to go again!“

“5 out of 5!!!me and my friends doing the bourbon trail came all the way from North Carolina up to visit. Awesome wings, awesome staff, and most importantly awesome sports on the tv’s. Definitely will be going back. Thanks for doing Carolina proud with yalls Carolina gold bbq sauce.“

“Good environment and good people! We came here while visiting our family and the food, environment and service were great! I would recommend this place to any one living in the area or visiting! And thank you to the manager on duty, she graciously paid for our meal! It was greatly appreciated!!! It goes to show that there are good people still out there!“

“Best wings on the West Side. Change that. Best wings in all of Cincinnati. Love all the Wild Mike’s locations. Have not been to this one in years. The new expansion at this one is great. The new bar is a great addition“

“Crowd always enjoyable - be yourself and bring your friends…always laughs and cheerful staff. They want to be the best in Cincinnati, and definitely, Blue Ash Macs cares & they are always happy to see you return.

Hosts always greet you, and help the teams - providing awesome service. After I eat, the plate is cleaned from the table - I don’t see that everywhere.

Everyone - thank you, and see you again next week.“

“Wonderful food, great owner, great service.“

“The Goetta Mac is Amazing!!!! Very nice place to eat and drink.“

“We love T! She is seriously the best and the food is always great!! After dining with T, Hooligans has became our go to spot on Fridays whenever we get the chance ❤️“
