If you are a coffee lover, then this blog is for you. Whether you are visiting Cincinnati for the first time, or if you’ve lived here your whole life I highly recommend these four coffee shops to anyone.
#1 Bow Tie Cafe
If you are looking to see the best views in Cincinnati, make your way up to this shop. Atop the hill of Mt. Adams, the Bow Tie Cafe is a must. This charming coffee house and wine bar serves internationally sourced coffee, as well as cocktails, great food, and even better conversation.
Have a seat on their patio behind the Monk fountain and take in all Mt. Adams has to offer, or set up camp inside and get some work done for the day. A great place to grab a bite to eat, meet a friend, or enjoy the streets of Mt. Adams.
#2 The Madison Place
Located in Mariemont, The Madison Place offers the opportunity for neighbors and passersby to meet. Unique in its aesthetic, this shop is rather warm and cozy with its optimal seating of leather chairs and large couches, high top tables, or chairs gathered around large kitchen tables.
Imagine wooden bookshelves, a good brew in hand, and piano music playing in the background and you have yourself The Madison Place. They offer a full coffee bar menu, teas and other non-coffee drinks; along with breakfast and lunch offerings.
#3 Coffee Emporium
A mom-and-pop coffee shop located in both Hyde Park and Over the Rhine with an incredible mission. Investing in coffee directly from farmers to ensure they receive top dollar for their hard work and quality beans. They live by the phrase, “investing in relationships from seed to cup”.
When you have a cup of joe from Coffee Emporium you can proudly know that each bean has been carefully roasted from Africa, Indonesia, Central and South America. Try their great selection of breakfast and lunch options, as well as grounds or beans to go!
#4 Bean and Barley
From the name of this shop you might note that caffeine is not all that is served. Enjoy the craftsmanship of local roasters, brewers, bakers, and artists. Located in O’Bryonville you can experience a very warm and inviting atmosphere.
Enjoy two levels of seating, a rooftop patio, side patio, and outdoor beer garden. A great and comfortable place to bring your dog, your kids, a laptop, or some friends!
