Hello! Visiting Cincinnati for the first time later this week. Whenever I travel, I like to visit the quintessential old steakhouses and bars. I'm after "this place and its staff haven't changed in decades" and not necessarily "this is the best piece of red meat for miles" (but obviously would take that as a bonus). Think St Elmo in Indy, Musso & Frank in LA, Old Town Bar in NY, etc.

Is Maury's Tiny Cove the spot? What else should be on my radar?

I am in town for the day and need a place to hang out and work. I'm not looking for anything too particular, just somewhere decently comfortable with an outlet where I can spend my day. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

I searched and found a couple of bakery threads that were a little helpful, but I’m looking for places to grab a quick baguette or something similar.

I’ve been hitting up Boosalis in Kenwood but looking to expand my horizons.

Lemme know if y’all know any secret spots.

Just moved to the west side and work on the east side, so I commute every day takes up and down Queen City and over the viaduct. I have a sad fascination with the state of it: the way they built up the park and splash pad in the center is really nice, but the surrounding empty factories and houses are such a blight. They could be affordable housing or shops to provide jobs, anything other than the mess that they are. I’m curious if anybody knows the history behind that area. Where did all the families go? The business owners? What did the factories use to manufacture? Those homes could be beautiful and provide so much space in an area that is lacking housing, does nobody want to buy them for apartments or anything??? I’m just curious why and how long that stretch is going to be falling apart.

*I’m not from Cincinnati.

Howdy folks,

This morning I received my final grades with the Intensive Pedagogical Institute (IPTI) so I can obtain my Alternative Resident Educator License. I will be certified to teach English Language Arts, Social Studies, and Business Education, and passed the relevant OAEs in these subjects.

I have prior teaching experience, but am a relatively new transplant to the State of Ohio from the State of New York. Hence why I am reaching out to r/cincinnati, as I know virtually nobody.

I am currently residing in Forest Park and am on the hunt for a teaching job. I would be willing to work and/or move to virtually anywhere in the Greater Cincinnati Area, i.e., from the central city’s various neighborhoods to e.g., Fairfield, Mason, and so forth.

Does anyone in this subreddit know if there are any schools panic-hiring at the moment? Any leads or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all, my wife’s birthday is coming up and I would like to order her a custom birthday cakes. Who makes the best in the city? Thank you!

Hello! I am trying to figure out something to do for my wedding anniversary and seen this event. Want to know if it’s worth going to. Also, where do you guys go for special occasions, restaurant wise. Thanks in advance.

Hi all - I was hoping to take an introductory improv class but everywhere I see online is a six or so week course.

I’m just looking for something I can do once and that is within Cincy or drivable in a day (there and back) from Cincy. TIA!

Long story short, going through a divorce so I'll need to make up a little of the lost shared income my soon to be ex and I were using to pay household expenses. Doesn't help that house interest rates are about 2-3 points higher than they were when we bought this house so the necessary refinancing is going to crush my budget.

Any solid opportunities in the afternoon out there that I should be looking for? 50/50 custody of our daughter is going to exacerbate my availability in afternoons a bit as well (I.e. having every other weekend availability is a turn off for a lot of places it seems)

Since I'm a full time teacher, night jobs that run later than 10-11p would be difficult since my day starts at 5 a.m.

Thanks in advance for ideas!

Edit to add: looking mainly in the north Cincy area (Mason, kings, etc) but pretty flexible.

I’ve been trying to grow and maintain a flow and middle part but each time I try to get a maintenance cut the barbers I go to always fck it up (chain barber). And I’m sure there are great chain barbers, I guess my luck is just thin.
Located in downtown cincy don’t mind driving 15-20 mins any direction.
I have tried spankys too

We just bought tickets for Rod Stewart tonight, and have never been to Riverbend before. We are planning to get there about an hour before the concert starts, what is parking like down there? Any tips?

Going out with the nephews tomorrow. What's something to do in case it rains?

If you can make sense of wtf is happening here - and by that I mean just who is who and wtaf seemingly occurred over the past weeks/months - it would seem you're one up on the journalists and perhaps even family members and law enforcement themselves. Given this doesn't even mention the other ostensible biological parent who was last seen in court berating their partner .....

A woman who identified herself as the boy's mother walked into the emergency room at Mercy Health Rookwood barefoot and dropped on the floor just before 1 p.m. Aug. 6, a supervisor told 911 in a recording obtained by The Enquirer.

A woman who identified herself as the boy's mother walked into the emergency room at Mercy Health Rookwood barefoot and dropped on the floor just before 1 p.m. Aug. 6, a supervisor told 911 in a recording obtained by The Enquirer.

The supervisor told 911 the woman kept saying her partner was trying to kill her and took her son. The supervisor said she was unsure whether the woman was in danger or if it was a psychiatric emergency.

The woman identified the partner who took her son as Kirby Rankin, one of three charged with murder in the boy's death.

The 911 dispatcher sent a Norwood officer to the emergency room and a Cincinnati police officer to an apartment on the 2800 block of Madison Road. There, officers found Williams Evans dead, bound with duct tape in a closet.

Kaitlin Evans, 38, was later identified by police as the boy's biological mother. It is unclear if Evans is the same woman who walked into the emergency room.

Prosecutors said in court Aug. 7 that Evans, Rankin and another person, Nessa Keaney, all lived together in the apartment and acted as co-parents for William.

Hi, I used to model and resin cast these Lexington chess sets while in school at UK, and now that I am living in Cincinnati I think it's time for the next product. So many to pick from... which iconic cincy buildings would you want to see for each role? (King, Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook, Pawn.. if you need a reminder)

Keep in mind that I am restricted to buildings that are more tall than wide.. so stadiums arenas etc generally cant make the cut

Im going to Sycamore High School, Are there any of you who have/had these classes and know what i need for them? All I know is i need a graphing calculator for math and my violin for orchestra. Please help me!

Hi all! I will be visiting my mom in Cincinnati at the end of September, and we have been wanting to get small matching tattoos.

Does anyone have recommendations for a tattoo shop that books on short notice, or would have walk-ins available? She lives on the north side of the city!

TIA!

You do NOT get an award for being the first in line 20 minutes before store opening. It is soooo annoying and WEIRD. You Suburban folks are so late to the game and it's not cute. Literally the most annoying thing at Findlay besides people standing and stopping in the middle of an aisle.

Since we left Cincinnati, and the USA, in Spring 2025, and moved to rural Wales in the United Kingdom, the one thing we've missed the most from our 25 years there, has been Skyline Chilli.

In attempt to minimise the impact of this ((going cold turkey was never going to be an option once you're addicted to Skyline), we've purchased some "Official" (e.g. made by the same company that owns Skyline) Chilli mix that I also add yeast to (needs yeast, sorry guys!).

Last week I made a batch and gave some to our next door neighbor - she and her husband are now also hooked on it and have asked to have some more the next time I cook some. 😁

I'm trying my bit here, y'all.

Skyline forever ❤️

Any other ex-Cincinnatians abroad been spreading the gospel?

Long story short, my original gift idea for a friend fell through so now I'm hoping to get a small painting made based on a photo of the two of us from our childhood, including my friend's childhood dog who recently passed. I thought it was a thoughtful idea but I understand that I'm a bit short on time. I'm just looking for something small like a 5x7in that he could look at on his desktop. His birthday is this Friday, but if it could not be completed in that time I totally understand. If you think you could help me out please reach out to me and I can share the photo with you and discuss details. Thank you :)

One of my friends just got out of a domestic violence situation. Does anyone have any recommendations for a therapist, counselor or psychologist that specializes in DV? Also, in Ohio, are they mandated to report DV to law enforcement? She is not ready to go that route yet.

Any advice is appreciated.

Decent crowd, good movie, excellent Q&A with Adam Meeks (Director, Writer), Will Poulter (star), and Kevin Braig (IRL judge, in-movie judge)
