Breweries

There are tons of amazing breweries in the area. Here’s some of our favorites!
Braxton has a great beer selection! Plus you can order food from the neighboring restaurant, Parlor on 7th (definitely order the Hanky Panky dip!) they have an amazing rooftop! If coming in the colder months, check out their website to reserve an igloo!

If we had to pick our favorite Cincinnati area beer, it’s Taft’s! Not only is the building stunning (it’s an old church!) but the beer is mighty tasty. Nellie’s Key Lime and Cherrywood Amber are too favs! They also have a full food menu. Plus it’s just a few blocks from Washington Park where there is almost always something going on!

A Cincinnati favorite for beers. In the nearby OTR area, a quick Uber ride away. They also have cornhole and an amazing rooftop view.

Food scene

If you like smoked meats and bourbon…this is YOUR spot! Smoke Justis is our favorite! They often have live music in the bourbon bar and man do they have a bourbon selection! We recommend the smoked brisket nachos and an old fashioned. Also a great place to watch games. It’s right near the Roebling Bridge and water front to take a scenic view of downtown Cincinnati after to walk off your meal :)

Moonrise has two locations - one that’s open in the mornings (Crescent Springs) and a second that opens late for the evenings (Covington). They serve hot donuts and they are heavenly! They often sell out so get there early

Sports

If the Reds are playing at home, we highly recommend catching a game. It’s a fantastic stadium and outside the stadium there’s ton of restaurants and bars (the area is called The Banks).
