This place is a landmark. Not the BEST burgers I've ever had, but for BURGER MADNESS and cheap beer, you CAN NOT beat this place. The service excels, given how busy this place is.Tables are small, and close together, but that's how people dined back in the day. Great for a random weeknight meal. It will not be crowded. read more

The first word that comes to mind when I think of Arthur's is tolerant. I spent one long weekend in Cinci to visit some friends and because Arthur's was walking distance from their place, we closed this place down 4 nights in a row. I've been to plenty of worse places that tolerated a lot less than we put them through, so overall I can't complain. If you're in the adventurous mood be sure to order a "Moon Poon" (a shot of orange rum dropped into a blue moon "car bomb" style), you won't be disappointed. read more

Extensive beer list, decent wine list, yummy burgers, and pretty good non-burger options as well. We stopped by yesterday night before the dinner rush (this place gets CROWDED around 7 pm) and selected fare different than our normal Burger Madness choices. To start, we had the potato skins, which should actually be termed "Potato Pots," if I had anything to say about it. Perfectly circle half-potatoes were stuffed with cheddar, provolone, and bacon. The skins were crispy and delicious and served with a hefty portion of sour cream. I could only eat one, they were huge and I didn't want to ruin my dinner. Only $5 during Happy Hour, though. For dinner, I had the Mexican Chicken Salad. The salad was ice-berg covered in a fresh grilled chicken breast, black olives, jalapenos, cheese, and tomato. It came served with a pretty good salsa and honey-dijon dressing. Pretty good and filling for a salad. My boyfriend ordered the fish sandwich and was pleased with his flaky and greasy cod. For an additional 50 cents he got it topped with loads of cheddar, which he loved. The fries that came served with his sandwich were crispy and hot...I only stole a few :) Atmosphere is very casual. Arthur's becomes a bar after midnight, 21 and up only...but before that, it's a very family friendly place. Prices are reasonable, our bill came to $28 and we had an app, entrees, and beers. Not too bad... read more

Arthur's - Arthur's - Burgers Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

BURGERS! Good meat, Good buns, and Good fries. This place is about 35 minutes away for us, but is worth a special trip if your craving a good burger! I had the SouthWest Burger that included roasted pablanos, crispy tortilla strips, and chipotle mayo. Really pleased, but am guessing one of their 15 other specialty burgers would have really knocked my socks off. Also, their buns are high quality that can handle a few tablespoons of mayo, meat juice, and/or ketchup without falling apart. The special burger deals that I can not remember now are sweet too! Great location and relaxing ambiance read more

Hands down the best burger experience in the city. The meat is seasoned perfectly and I've never had such well temped burgers anywhere else. The toppings are fantastic. The build your own selections would take a lifetime to explore completely but oh what life that would be. On Burger Madness days you pay $8.99 for a burger with any or all of the non-gourmet toppings. Best burger AND best burger price at the same time?! I'm in! The preset options are just perfect. The gourmet burger knocked my socks off! A fantastic beer selection and the beer, like the food, is always fresh because they only serve LOCAL taps! Get tasting flights of the draft beers and enjoy! They not only have a beer for any mood or food but the staff knows their beers and knows them WELL. The rest of the menu is amazing! If you're not in the mood for a burger this place is not a one hit wonder. It's ALL worth ordering. You literally cannot go wrong! Best bar app menu in the city and I hit a lot of bars. I've had all their apps at one point or another but the Wonton Poppers and Buffalo Chicken Bites are two of the most creative and wonderful things you'll ever enjoy with your favorite beer. The hands down highlight app is the Fried Cheese. It's ridiculously good. They've elevated the cheese stick to a realm I never thought it could go. How do you fry cheese and still have it seem light? It's magic I tell ya. As for the service, you'll be hard pressed to find a staff that cares as much about your dining experience. Knowledgeable and with a sense of urgency. These folks really care and it shows. Great hires! Management obviously maintains super high standards as far as the food and the service. The only thing I would change if I could is to have the exact same bar (same wood work and charm) but four times bigger. I like sitting at the bar here but that's some coveted real estate. Do yourself, your family, your friends and your mouth a favor and go there. Today. read more

Arthur's is one of those uniquely-Cincinnati eateries that everyone in the tri-state area has either visited or at the very least heard of. Located right on the outskirts of Hyde Park Square, Arthur's sets itself apart by avoiding the pretentious, pomposity-like attitude you find in some of the other restaurants in the Hyde Park area. Arthur's doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is; a comfortable, neighborhood hang-out that appeals to a diverse clientele where everyone feels as if they belong. Like all places that fit the above description, Arthur's has good qualities and bad qualities. I wouldn't say the positive outweighs the negative, nor would I say the negative overshadows the positive. Like anything, it all depends on the particular circumstances for each visit. I've been to Arthur's numerous times (always with a group of friends) and there were times when I left thinking, "This is such a great place." And there were some occasions when I left thinking, "This place is such a hole." So let's take a look at both the pros and cons. Let's start positive. First, Arthur's has a great atmosphere. Whether you're eating inside (where you can enjoy the mural featuring a number of Cincinnati celebrities painted in either the late 70's or early 80's) or taking your meal outside on the vine-draped patio, the atmosphere is enjoyable. Professional yet laid-back is a great way to describe it. I do want to point out that of all the restaurants in Cincinnati that features a patio, Arthur's patio is by far my favorite. The burgers are pretty good, as is the chili. Prices are pretty inexpensive, especially for being in Hyde Park. Portions are very generous. And you never feel as if you're being rushed out the door like you might at other places, even when they're busy. The staff is usually friendly. Although that's not always the case. Which leads to the negative. On more than one occasion the staff has made it painfully clear how bored they are to be there. This of course had a direct effect on the service (i.e. it wasn't what I would call good). I remember one time our waiter just forgot to put in one of my friend's order. And when we pointed it out, he was completely nonchalant about it. And while the burgers and chili are always on their game, the rest of the menu is a crap shoot. The side salads are always a good bet, but I'd avoid the bigger ones. The chicken sandwiches (which I've never ordered, but those who were with me have) have never been all that great. Finally I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that every single time I've been to Arthur's, they always manage to screw up at least one person's order in our group. As I mentioned earlier, Arthur's has good qualities and bad qualities. If I had to use just one word to describe this place, it would have to be...inconsistent. When Arthur's is on their game, it's amazing. When they're not....well...yeah. I'll let you decide whether it's worth the risk. Mahalo, and enjoy. read more

Tried Arthur's on a recommendation from a friend while visiting some high school buddies. We were looking for breakfast/brunch, but they don't serve it anymore which was a bummer. Overall the experience was only ok - not horribly disappointing but not great either. The service was pretty good - everyone got coffee, water, tea, etc. refilled promptly and the server was never gone for too long (and she didn't bug us either). The atmosphere was fine - we sat outside on the patio and it was a bit warm but definitely more pleasant than being inside which is really dark. The only problem is that someplace nearby something funky was brewin' - whenever the wind changed just right we got a whiff of the unidentified funk. Food was only ok - tasted good but both my veggie burger and a friend's grilled cheese were hardly warm/melted - I understand that a veggie burger doesn't need a temp, but warm is always helpful. Wouldn't visit again for lunch, but might stop by in the evening for what sounds to be a decent beer list - actually, I might just go over to Dutch's and pick up a few and head back to a friend's house... read more

One of the many good burger joints in Cincinnati. Pros: 1) Great atmosphere and friendly staff 2) Very reasonably priced 3) Love burger madness on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday 4) They have a cold spinach artichoke dip which is delicious Cons: 1) Apparently the fries aren't too great 2) Parking can sometimes be a problem read more

Arthur's is a home town favorite for Cincinnatians and visitors alike. They specialize in burgers, but have some amazing appetizer and sandwich options. Aesthetically, the restaurant reminds you of an older school, Mom & Pop type of place. The lighting is kept somewhat low and it definitely has a smaller feel. Parking can be a bit tough, but there is a hidden (and cheap) pay lot right next to Dancing Wasabi (which is right next to Arthur's). Look for the green P sign and turn into the lot. Tiffany had the Fiesta Burger - Pepper jack, jalapenos, black bean & corn salad, chipotle mayonnaise. She said: "I like how they take the seeds out of the jalapenos so it's got a kick but not so spicy that my mouth is on fire. It seemed that the bean and corn salad was all beans and was not generously placed on the burger. The burger was still yummy though!" Jim had the Chipotle BBQ Burger - Blue cheese, bacon, red onion, an onion ring, & chipotle bbq sauce. I loved this burger and would highly recommend it! All of the different tastes packed into one awesome burger. Yum! We both had the sweet potato fries (be sure to ask for them). Jim liked them, but Tiffany wished they had a bit more of a crunch. They were a bit soggy. All in all, this is not your normal burger shop and it definitely has character. Be sure to check out their burger madness on Sundays - Tuesdays for $7.99 burgers. read more

Came here for a late dinner, and it was solid. I got the Hyde Parker, and it was a hefty burger! It came with a nice half of avocado, crispy bacon, and goat cheese. I got mine medium well, and it was cooked just how I asked! Only issue I really have is that the burger meat itself just wasn't seasoned. It tasted like plain beef which, to be fair, I'm sure a lot of people are into. I personally prefer a burger with at least some salt and pepper, preferably with some other seasoning as well! The fries that came with the burger were pretty awesome- nice and crispy and a good thickness. The price was reasonable at ~$13 for my burger meal. Overall, solid burger, just not the best burger I've ever had. I would go back next time I'm in a pinch with a burger craving! read more

Really disappointed in our last visit to Arthur's. Normally the food and service is great but the experience we had today has led me to leave this review. First our food took over 40 minutes to come out while the table next to us (who sat down some time after us) got their food promptly. Then my fiancé was served a burger in which the middle was not cooked (see picture) when he had ordered medium. The manager informed us that that's just how they cook their mediums. So maybe next time we'll order more well. We did have our meal comped for the wait but the experience was very out of character for this Hyde Park gem. Hoping that this isn't a new trend. read more

Arthur's - Burgers Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Need a quality burger at a decent price? Look no further than Arthur's. My buddies and I were literally arguing for a good hour on where to eat for burgers and someone suggested McDonald's, then another Burger King, then finally good ole Arthur's (I suggested this one). Arthur's burgers stick to the essence of what a good burger should be. It also doesn't overcomplicate things when adding the extras such as bacon, sauces, cheeses, etc. or their own speciality creations. The ingredients chosen for each of their burgers, whether classics or speciality, are perfectly blended to bring out the best flavor that certain burger has to offer. Of course you can always add whatever you want to any of their selections. All of which you can get for an average of $12 or lower. Step aside Big Macs and Whoppers, Arthur's is well worth it considering they're open late and there's usually no wait on the weekdays for a quality burger. I definitely feel full and satisfied after each visit. Edit: frequent water refills (and I'm a sucker for water refills) read more

I love Arthur's. Great burgers, nice outdoor area, great service. I didn't love the blackberry mule cocktail, but hey -- it's hard to beat Arthur's for a yummy lunch and a cold beer. read more

Good Burgers at a reasonable price. Burger Madness is a good thing. Go after the bank closes and you get free parking!!! read more

Arthur's is one of my favorite burger places in Cincinnati! They have a nice laid back setting, bar area, and cheap parking around back. I usually go during BURGER MADNESS! You can get a create your own (meaning LOADED any way you want) half pound burger and fries for $7! This is Sunday-Tuesday I believe. Also, discount appetizers and drink specials during happy hour! Other than their burgers, I also HAVE to get the fried cheese anytime I go there. It's giant handmade cheese sticks in a light crunchy batter, so good! I've also tried their turkey burger and their wings, which were both good. One of my favorite restaurants, bring some friends! read more

Arthur's is one of my favorite places in cincinnati. While there certainly are better burgers in Cincy, Arthur's burger is well above average. What really makes this place special to me is the back patio. It's the most romantic patio in the city in my opinion... guys, take a girl here on a date and she'll be immediately impressed. Everything from the brick to the greenery to the trellises just creates an atmosphere that can't be rivaled. If you want the best burger in the city you should probably look elsewhere, but if you're looking for a fun place to grab a drink and some above average grub without going to Applebee's or some other chain, Arthur's fits the bill perfectly. read more

Definitely on the list of Cincinnati's best burgers. I had one of their weekly special burgers that was like a western burger that had bacon, onions, and bbq sauce. Very tasty and well cooked. We also had their fried cheese, which the bartender told us was one of their specialties. It was definitely good, but you can't really eat more than 1 or 1 1/2 because you can feel your arteries clogging. Laid back atmosphere. Good prices. I'm a fan and will be back read more

Mmmmmm Burger Madness. Arthurs is known for their burgers and they are really great, but the best deal is Burger Madness, which I think is only during the week (sunday, monday, tuesday). You get a burger with unlimited topics for around $8. It is worth it. Vs Terry's Turfclub or some of the other "best burger places" theirs is actually a really good deal, plus a really good burger. Definitely check it out. - Krista read more

If you don't stray from the burgers, you'll be fine! Most other menu items are hit or miss. The burgers are rock solid. And if you're there in pleasant weather, the outdoor patio area is charming! read more

My favorite burger place. Huge burgers with great crispy fries, my favorite outside of Belgium. The burgers are thick and you get unlimited toppings if you go Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. Can't recommend enough. read more

GREAT burgers, usually less of a wait than bakersfield and Eagle so a nice alternative for a dinner out. Definitely recommend

To me, Arthur's is the quintessential local hangout. Friendly people, good prices, good food. What I love about it is how versatile it is- good for dinner with a family, dates, or catching up with friends over a few beers. The atmosphere of Arthur's is cozy and friendly. It's a bit worn inside, but its got character. The food is pretty solid. Burgers are definitely a great way to go, especially during when you can get the $6 burgers during Burger Madness. The patio is great weather permitting- but it does get pretty busy out there. read more

I've enjoyed Arthur's for years, but today, after an exhausting weekend, I was particularly delighted to find them open on Easter Sunday. I'm on the South Beach diet, so bread and other sugars are off-limits, so I was craving the Buffalo Chicken Salad, potentially the greatest chicken salad in the world. Served with a garlic breadstick (I had a little bit!), the salad comes with a plentiful amount of mixed romaine. They load you up in sections with fresh tomato, hard-boiled egg, blue cheese crumbles, a decent amount of blue cheese dressing (perfectly liquid, not chunky) and a sliced breast of chicken covered in spicy buffalo sauce. Thinkin about grabbing the car keys? I know. Arthur's offers plenty of seating options and a great bar sporting many brews. Two separate indoor chambers for eating and one great outdoor area. This has been a favorite of mine for decades and someday when I leave Cincinnati, it will be one of the places I look back on and compare everything else to. Provecho! read more

It was decent. I had the bleu cheese burger which was hand pressed with a glop of cheese on top. My friend had the mozzerella ciabatta with marinara sauce and apparently it was amazing. Their pasta salad was bleh. I really like the tap tuesdays where guest breweries take over the tap. They roll out custom pint glasses for those nights. Which is amazing. read more

INCREDIBLE. Went for the Burger Madness on a Sunday and really enjoyed. First off, the decor and the interior itself are really cool and unique. The food was absolutely amazing and our service was just fine as well. Also, went with an order of cheese fries before the meal (on top of the fries that come with the burger because, of course!). The cheese fries were very good and came in a HUGE portion. All in all, very good eats here. read more

I've been here a couple times now and it doesn't disappoint in any aspect! You can't go wrong with pretty much any of the food; burgers, salmon, even their black bean burger is amazing. And for the price it's even better. Their alcoholic drinks are also reasonably priced and they offer a lot of great beers. Cocktails and wine are also awesome! The staff is super polite and take care of you read more

Arthur's - $5 Bloody Mary and comes with a little beer! Delicious - Burgers Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Was looking for a great local place to grab lunch and found it. I had the Cantina Black Beana burger and it was amazing. She had the Gourmet Burger and it was also amazing. Service was fast and very friendly. read more

I used to live in the 'Nati & there are very few things that I miss about the city. But, Arthurs' is definitely one of them! Whenever I come back to the city to visit the fam, I stop by Arthurs' to eat. Arthurs' has the best burger deal in the city & is much better than Zip's, which I find the burgers there to be thin & greasy. The outdoor seating area is a good place to hang out with your friends. Also try the spinich & artichoke pizza as an appetizer. It's delish! read more

Arthur's has been at the top of my Cincinnati bar list since I moved here in 2001. It is one of those places that my dad must visit every time he is in town, because he loves it that much. Burger Madness is a Hyde Park staple, and I highly recommend checking it out when you have an opportunity. This is offered on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Beer selection is also pretty good. Get to Hyde Park and check it out! read more

Best burger I've ever had in the city. Their potato skins are so, so good. The Cajun fries are enough to make me happy all alone. Burger Madness is the best time to go, but they're open late, so there's really not a bad time to go. Love the vintage bar look, hand painted, quirky little mural, and open air patio area out back--it's a little secret gardeny spot with exposed brick. Great place to enjoy a drink and some food with friends. I'm not a drinker myself, but I've heard good things about the brews. The soft drinks, sadly, are petty flat. No delicious coke with your burger :(. But then you taste the skins, and maybe you don't care so much about the coke. :) Oh, the burgers run rare. Even if you usually go for that at other places, you might do well with medium here. read more

Arthur's is a perfect mix of the things that you are looking for in a casual night out. In terms of food, no matter what you get you will be satisfied - from their fried cheese, loaded burgers and their amazing salads. They consistently have great service, I have never had a poor experience and I have been to this place at least 30 times. Their environment has one side bar and the other side casual dining. In the summer months, try to sit in their very nice outdoor section. read more

Arthurs...the place folks hang out because they cannot afford the majority of the other places in Hyde Park. This is a pub/bar with a nice little patio area in the back. Servers are very good and pricing is affordable. It gets packed on the weekends, particularly in the summer. read more

Arthurs is off the main drag in Hyde Park. It's a great place to go if you want to grab a beer and have pub type food for dinner or later. There is a small patio for outdoor service as well. The food is generally good, though I don't believe I've ever had anything besides a burger. The beer selection is nice (with a decent selection of micro-brews). There is usually a long wait around dinner, and the quarters are very tight. The service is about what you expect given that the restaurant is usually packed and a long line of people waiting for a table. It's a great place to go with a significant other if you want to take a stroll around Hyde Park, but dont' want to pay top dollar to eat. read more

The best black bean burger in Hyde Park. Quintessential Cincinnati atmosphere with a fantastic selection of classic american cuisine at a moderate price. Perfect location and delicious. Expect a short wait on Friday or Saturday night but its well worth it. Oh ya, get the fried cheeses. Makes happiness for every tummy. read more

This is my new go to place for a beer and a burger. The burger madness is a great deal and a great burger. I do not quite understand the menu when it states no more than 6 cheeses when there seems to be only 5 on the menu, but hey, I'm not going to beat them down for that. I have also had the fish sandwich, and it was very good as well. Fries are always criisp and hot. The beer selection is good and changes frequently so you always have something different to try. The atmosphere is cozy, with a seperate bar and restaurant area. This is nice if you want a little less hustle you can sit over in the restaurant only section. I find this place to always have a good crowd, so you may have to wait a bit to get a seat. I know I am having a bad day when I walk in and cannot find a seat at the bar. Very dissapointing... I would recommend trying this place out if you like burgers and beers. Sunday - Tuesday is burger madness. read more

Arthur's is simply a really cool place to be ! I just moved to Cincinnati for a trainee program and Arthur's was the first bar/restaurant I went, as it was almost the only one to serve diner after 10pm. All the staff is very friendly as well as the people coming here. They even give me some information about Cinci as I didn't know anything about this city. To conclude, Arthur's has become one of my favorite bar/restaurant in Cinci. And every new people in the city should come here ! read more

I was recently with a friend on a Friday afternoon hunting for exactly what we found at Arthur's Cafe. Arriving just before 5 o'clock, we wanted to grab a bite and a drink, and their happy hour special was spot on. We immediately eyed the burger menu, evidently for what they're known, however the happy hour specials alone would've probably sufficed. $6 wing platters - includes 10 - along with 2, 3, 4, and 5 dollar drink specials (domestics, wells, taps, and house wines). Starting with the wings and a beer from their wide craft selection, in addition to a couple of burgers, left us both equally satisfied. If you're in the mood for a casual happy hour drink and some wings or a burger, at a place with a local neighborhood vibe, then Arthur's is a solid choice. For what we had in mind, about as good as it gets - especially for price and quantity. read more

My favorite burger place ever. Not in Cinci. Ever. The outside seating is dope boi magic and the drink selection is perfection. read more

Always good food and good service. Soups and burgers are excellent. Go to Burger Madness days: good value for money.

I recently went to Arthur's on a lazy Sunday and the food was great! The burger was nicely cooked and the toppings I picked made it even better. I believe they have "Burger Mania" on Sunday through Tuesday, which allows you a multitude of free toppings. The patio was nice also. There was plenty of shade and the service was also excellent. I have been to the bar a few times at night and the crowd is pretty laid back also. read more
