Oldest bar in Cincinnati. Great atmosphere, good beer selection at good prices, and really good burgers . Can be a little cramped at times but great place to go with a couple friends.
This bar has been in business since 1861, full of history and unique charm. Local Cincy drafts on tap , an outdoor patio with live music , Victorian decor, and plenty of ghost stories.
The patio is really nice and they usually have live music .
Arnold's is a hidden gem in Cincy for sure. The whole menu is very high quality and priced fairly .
The oldest bar in the city . Great draft beer selection & patio . No tv , the way a bar like this should be.
Awesome place! Bourbon flights, craft cocktails , basically a bar in someone's old house - you can get a whole room to yourself
Great food, courtyard music is a unexpected treat, great place to relax and chat with friends
Great historic hole-in-the-wall with food and entertainment
Pasta Androski (dinner ) and Greek spaghetti deluxe (lunch version) is numero uno in my book !
I really enjoy the beer and selection and sitting at the bar . Not a big fan of the food but it is a bar what do you expect.
The spaghetti and meatballs is very tasty. Get a tossed salad with Italian dressing , change your name to Tony and it feels like you're in Rome.
Good cocktails and beer . Outdoor seating is enclosed in the winter.
The most awesome people in the world go here... I should know as I'm one of them.
They claim to be the oldest bar in Cincy . I'm not sure, but the set is great. An outdoor eating area with heat so that you can sit outside in the winter and listen to local talent.
They have a vegan menu here! So refreshing not to have to ask for substitutions! THANK YOU!
Great bar and that's coming from a Louisville native. If you want to avoid the Jersey Shore crowd this is the place for you.
The outdoor courtyard looked great, but we ended up sitting upstairs and it felt like I was in someone's house without all the furniture . Way too loud , and the decorations were awful.
The seasonal Spiced Pear cocktail is super good!
Hopefully, since this was during Bockfest , the prices weren't typical of this place. I found the beer prices to be OUTRAGEOUS ($9-$10/pint).The food was pretty good, but also expensive .
The Greek spaghetti that i grew up with. FAT Tuesday
You're grabbing a beer in Cincinnati's oldest pub . Job well done.
Make Sure to ask for Wiedemann's Fine Beer
The entertainment is tops. The courtyard is fab! Bourbons galore!
Oldest bar in the city ! Good food, great local beer on tap !
Very cool place. Unique atmosphere, and full of history.
Great vibe! Oldest bar in the nati!
The root vegetable salad is amazing!!
Go with the hot ham and cheddar for lunch
Get the tomato soup . Best I've ever had
AWESOME courtyard ! Order a Jameson mojito and chill .
When you get the fried green tomatoes , try the cajun ranch dressing with them, yummy!
You MUST try the fried pickles . Best I've ever had (and I'm an expert in yummy fried things).
Sit in the courtyard for sure.
oldest bar in town , live music in the courtyard
Steve @steveewhite recommends the meatballs in any form and Greek spagetti... Look for the full review on emulsifiedblog.com
Best place to start the Bockfest
Blueberry chicken is excellent!
"Greek spaghetti " is similar to puntanesca, just no anchovies and capers . It's hearty!
Love the outdoor seating and stage.
This courtyard is fantastic!
Live music all the time
Don't order the fried pickles . They'll look at you like you're crazy.
A Downtown institution since 1861, expect a local crowd and cold beer . Read more
Drink un the courtyard area.
Great Breakfest and Music for an Opening day Pre celebration!!
Sit in the courtyard ! It's available year round. Read more
Try the clam sauce !
Think about how folks probably sat that bar and debated re-electing Lincoln
Buenas hamburguesas , carta de cervezas y patio agradable, la mejor comida que hice en Cincinnati
Go to City View Tavern and have a burger and/or beer on the back porch during nice weather. It's a great view of the city and very peaceful. - Mandy Jenkins
Bartenders are super nice. The Sofia on tap is a great unfiltered beer with a hint of pineapple. I'd definitely recommend it! - Katie Myers
Great whisky and bourbon selection. Incredible cocktails! - Jeremiah Cosner
Always something going on. Lots of tables to eat items picked up from neighboring restaurants - Linda
A fantastic center for the performing arts. The musicals are always top quality productions. - Chad Hembree
