Really disappointed to see Patty's closed during one of the most vibrant and community-driven…read moreevents in the city -- the Hyde Park Blast. It's one thing to close early, but to post a handwritten sign calling the event "stupid" was shockingly unprofessional. It's figuratively and literally more than a bike race, it's a fundraiser that supports cancer research and survivorship through the CancerFree KIDS Pediatric Cancer Research Alliance. It brings thousands of people together for a cause that matters deeply, while also creating one of the most electric, family-friendly atmospheres you'll find in Cincinnati. From a business perspective, this was a massive missed opportunity. The streets were filled with people eager to support local shops and enjoy the events which is exactly the kind of audience any small business would hope for. Instead of welcoming that energy, Patty's turned it away and insulted the very people walking by their storefront. I love supporting small, local businesses, but this kind of response shows a disconnect from the community that makes Hyde Park special. I hope they reconsider how they respond to events like this in the future.

Welcome to the alpha of the Over-the-Rhine kettle corn game my friend. This place just cornered the…read moreniche Cincinnati popcorn market that you didn't even know existed. Sweet and salty, rainbow, caramel, cheddar... you name it - they have it. My first time in was this weekend while trolling Findlay Market for some corn. Luckily, I found mama's. HOWEVER - I watched and was disturbed as some unidentified man was popping and tossing kernels! It was, indeed, NOT MAMA. I think this might be false advertising or mama has someone doing her poppin' for her... Popcorn is likely one of the cheapest snacks you can possibly make. Somehow they managed to charge $6 for a bag and it was good enough that I felt okay about it. Now that is kettle corn done right.

Maverick Chocolate Co. is a great little family owned and run chocolate maker that we found just…read moreacross Elder from popular little Findlay Market north of the OTR neighborhood of Cincy OH. We used to watch their roaster in their store stir and tumble the raw cacao beans they import directly from farmers and co-ops around the world. The aroma was subtle and warming. On this visit (Dec 2025), we realize they had recently moved production across Ohio River to the Eastside in Covington KY :-( The store had a sweet lovely aroma. It was filled with chocolate products that they make themselves. Bars of white chocolate, milk chocolate, flavored, and as dark as 80%, assorted candies, ground cacao, drinking chocolate mix, and even a cacao & chai & adaptogen beverage mix. We went for dark chocolate bars that we hadn't seen before. $14 Limited-edition 70% Thailand Dark Chocolate, sourced from the 10-year-old family-run Khun farm and harvest-station for about 40 neighbors. It had a subtle fruit sweetness and slight acidity, balancing the intensity of rich deep flavors, more savory than bitter. I think that Maverick's methods smooth the bitterness of the darker chocolates. A number of family-members found a bar of Dark chocolate under their tree this holiday season :-) Founded in 2014, Maverick's is a treasure. Next time we get here, we're gonna plan a drive 15min south of here to take a tour (with samples :-) of their factory and soak in that roasty aroma :-)

I also purchased some truffles to take home, and I purchased enough to get a box but they were out of the small boxes.

And indeed they did not make it. Hate I wasted money on these.

However- lately the quality of the kitchen and the food coming out of it hasn't been the same the past couple months and I'm not sure what's going on back there. I've had several issues with food orders lately and one that included a hair in my wrap. I truly want to keep supporting this place because overall it's great! But I will be hesitant to order from their kitchen for a while.

That being said, Husman potato chips were like a family member growing up, always at picnics, birthdays, and any family function. Since you can buy potato chips and pretzels in bulk boxes, Husman is a very popular snack food at any big gathering. While Husman Snack Foods still has Cincinnati-based facilities, the company is owned by Birds Eye Foods.

I found them at a bagel deli when we lived in Loveland, OH (a suburb of Cincinnati), and absolutely became obsessed. They're really sweet, but they have quite the kick. You definitely need an ice cold Coke to drink with 'em! :) The closest thing I can compare them to are Jays Hot Stuff Chips...those were always my favorite, and then I couldn't find them anymore. They're spicy, but sweet. Not "hot"...just flavorful. :) I've started having my husband bring these home to me when he works in Cincinnati...now i just have to pace myself so I don't gain 15 pounds!
