Great chicken with a nice bit of heat in the barbecue sauce. Cole slaw is crisp and creamy (I am a slaw junky) and the potatoes are baked, not microwaved. I love the little pitchers they leave at the table so you don't have to wait for drink refills. read more

We have lived 3 miles away for almost 4 years now. This was our first time in the restaurant. They always look busy so we've never tried. We were surprised when they seated us right away in the tent section. My enthusiasm quickly halted when the noise level in the tent was so high I had to yell at my husband to talk. A girl came to take our order for drinks after sitting at least 5 minutes. She never returned. Another girl came by and got our drinks and order. Maybe I should have read the description but I was expecting fried chicken, after all, they are a "Chicken Joint". The chicken came out roasted, which was good, but not browned enough. I wanted to try the chipotle slaw since I really don't like sweet slaw. It tasted like hard carrots and that was it. There were more carrots, thickly cut, than there were cabbage. The salad was okay. I don't like tomatoes or cucumbers and they would not let me put anything else on it. So I had lettuce and dressing. The first girl came back after we had already ordered and tried to take our order again. Very disorganized, too loud, and the food was okay, but not what I expected it to be. Everyone rants and raves about this place and I was just not impressed. NOt sure I will go back. read more

I ordered dinner and paid the bill with a credit card and left a 20% cash tip. My server then hit up my card for an addition 20% after I left. When I called to dispute, the manager did refund the overcharge. However, he never even apologized for their mistake or offered to comp my meal. Check your receipts if you dine here. I will not be returning. read more

This is one of my favorite places to hang out, get a beer, and have some chicken. The only drawback for me is how crowded it gets. If you aren't there early, the wait is obnoxious. It's nothing fancy, but a great neighborhood location. read more

Chicken is the best grilled chicken you'll find. Don't muck it up with bbq or Cajun spice, just get the house style. It's a busy place so consider sitting at the bar. We enjoyed attentive service with a wide brew selection. It's one of my favorite places in town and stop in every time I'm here. read more

Fantastic! Staff is pleasant, atmosphere is even better. Came here with coworkers for a dinner, many had been before and raved positively. The beer list was simple but adequate, the food was good, not superb (it's just chicken folks). I highly recommend and when in Cincy, I'll be back. read more

This restaurant is down the street from my dad's office so we frequently come here to meet him for lunch. The restaurant has both inside seating and "patio" seating. The patio has garage door type windows that open all the way around the restaurant. There are several fans, but it can get hot in the middle of summer. The patio also has TVs covering the walls so you can catch your favorite sporting event. There is self-serve popcorn and peanuts that guests can get to snack on. Every time we've been here the food is delicious and the service is great. The chicken is always tender and the saratoga chips with bbq sauce are especially tasty. The portions are very generous and a good value for the money. The only thing that can be an issue is parking. This is a very popular place and has a tendency to be very busy most of the time. The parking lot is not very large and there is not an adjacent lot for overflow. You will often see people making up their own parking spots during busier times. The food is definitely worth the wait and potential parking hassle though read more

A family favorite! Can't go wrong with the chicken entree. Gets busy on weekends, but restaurant is actually pretty big and can accommodate large groups. read more

I was in town for business and asked the hotel staff for restaurant recommendations and this was their overwhelming top pick. I'm always looking for something I can't get anywhere else and this was spot on. Great, fun atmosphere with a wide variety of delicious choices to select from. I went with the quarter white chicken, red skin mashed potatoes and chipotle slaw. The food was fantastic but the reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is the portions weren't as large as I anticipated and service was ok. It was a slow Monday night and it took the hostess a while to seat me and even though the food came out quick the waiter took too long between checking on me. Overall I do recommend this spot for the food alone. read more

Silver Spring House Restaurant - American Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Best Lunch Value in town. Food is delicious, a very high quality and all of the servers are genuinely pleased to help the customers. It's an excellent restaurant that does very well during the week. I would encourage any lunchtime diners to arrive around 11:30 or you might have a bit of a wait. read more

Great food. Chicken is awesome. Cool atmosphere. When it's warm they have the roll up windows. Good beer selection as well. read more

Silver Spring House Restaurant - Silver spring house - American Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I come here often because it is close to work and the food is good. Their chicken is really good. It's kind of a surprising place because a lot of ritzy folks come here, despite its dive bar undertones. Great place to come when the weather is nice, though, because they open up the bay windows and it always feels like I'm on vacation. read more

As many of you know, I can not give a 5-star rating to a restaurant that is not an actual 5-star restaurant. However that should NOT STOP YOU FROM GOING TO SILVER SPRING HOUSE! This place has a fantastic atmosphere with an enclosed area for dining that has big windows they open up to get an outdoor feel to the place. Lots of fans going and I felt I was at the beach sitting down for beer and dinner. Beer, they must have 25 taps, and we couldn't find a bottle of anything they did not have. Food, hot, and tasty! I had the fish tacos and they were really good. If you are in Cincy and looking for a place to unwind, look no further! E read more

I've haven't been to the Silver Spring House in years. And today I remembered why. The prices for food have become absolutely ridiculous. This is standard bar food in a bar atmosphere. Which is fine but not at these prices. I wouldn't mind hanging out at the bar and having a few beers but I don't think I'll be back for lunch/dinner unless I'm with a group that really wants to dine here. I've had the onion rings, chicken tenders, chicken salad plate, chicken salad sandwich, chipotle slaw, bbq shredded chicken sandwich to name a few. Nothing to complain about but nothing extra special about any of these items for the menu prices. Service can be slow at times too. read more

If you live or work in Mason, I'm sure you know and love Silver Spring House - or as it is affectionately referred to as, the chicken shack. It is always packed between 11-2 with office dwellers looking for a hearty chicken lunch or fresh and delicious salad. While I won't say its the absolute BEST chicken in cincy (looking at you Eagle OTR) , it certainly is good - and the restaurant is large enough to bring the whole office! Great upbeat vibes add to the casual atmosphere, but be prepared to shout a little as it does get pretty loud. read more

My husband and I had lunch here, so we would have something in our bellies for a nearby brewery we wanted to visit. We are fans of chicken, so since the sign said "The Chicken Joint", we thought we'd give it a try. We weren't disappointed. My husband got the quarter chicken dark meal, roasted chicken with sweet potato fries and stuffed green pepper soup. I got the Silver Springs chicken tenders meal. with plain baked potato with butter and sour cream on the side. I liked the chicken tenders, four pieces of rather big tenders. DEFINITELY enough for two people. The coating was not crispy, and had a slight flour taste. But the chicken itself was moist and flavorful. I got ranch dressing on the side, but didn't need to use it. As usual, I sampled my husband's meal. The sweet potato fries were crispy, and just sweet enough. No need for extra sweeteners (honey, brown sugar, whatever). The restaurant itself, even with MANY TV's, was on the quiet side. Which is very nice. The service was quick, which was also a pleasant surprise. The place filled up rather quickly, mostly with families that had kids. Silver Spring House is definitely worth a stop if in the area. read more

Great place to go! Can be busy at times but worth it. The staff makes sure you have plenty of beverages and if you are entertaining and need some time for before you want to eat, they have self serve peanuts and popcorn before you order. They obviously have a good menu because this restaurant packs the people in during lunch, Happy Hour, and dinner. If you are in the Montgomery side of Cincinnati, this is the place to go for good chicken and great service! read more

We went last night for the first time and it was fantastic! a little hard to find parking, but the wait wasn't bad. Food was fantastic, and the server was wonderful! We decided to stay late to watch the Reds game and will definitely be back! The owner was there working, bussing tables, welcoming customers for coming in. Fabulous place and fun atmosphere! read more

We ate here for the first time this week as a curbside carryout. The chicken reminded me of Amish chicken, which I love. The order was brought to me in a timely manner. I was not disappointed. Do ask when ordering the salad with the peanut dressing 2 of them for the large salad. I will definitely return to eat inside. read more

Food really good but but not great. Super long wait and very cute atmosphere. Food decent but for the long wait not so much. A place to be seen I guess but nothing super special. read more

"The local watering hole." I live within a mile of this place and EVERY time I drive by it is packed, so I knew I had to try it. We got our table quick after being told it would be 35 to 40 min. And it was only about a ten minute wait for the food. They make the drinks STRONG. lol. I ordered the chicken (dark meat, they give you a choice) with a side of Mac n cheese and mashed potatoes, I LOVED the mashed potatoes and the food was actually way better than I expected... For bar food! read more

What's to say...cincinnati's original chicken house serves up cold drinks and fair priced "chicken food" in a fast and friendly way. Ohh...and endless supply of hot buttery popcorn. Sit open-air if weather permits read more

One of my top 3 favorite restaurants to visit. The best time to visit is in the summer(obviously). Coming here is like stepping into a vacation spot somewhere not here in Ohio haha SSH is almost always poppin. Despite how busy they get, they are very swift with getting people seated quickly and efficiently. I've never experienced bad service or bad food. I order the chicken fingers every single time. They're so big and juicy and the honey mustard is DELICIOUS! I just love the vibe and feel I get from this place. It's fun and enjoyable. I'll always be back! :) read more

Neat atmosphere and quick seating. Our waitress went over the menu with my son and I but to be honest the lunch special menu was completely over priced. Some salads on the reg menu were 16$! I have never paid that much for a salad nor will I ever. Lunch specials 11.99 to me That's not a deal. I ended up getting a cup of clam chowder for surely nothing to rave about. We were.just goimg to have our tea and leave but she offered my son the kids meal menu he got the chicken tenders and fries which were 2 huge pieces of chicken that he devoured with a huge amount of fries! He was happy. I at that point couldn't eat anymore than the soup. I wish they had more interesting things on the menu and the prices were within reason and I would certainly come back. I'm happy we tried it! read more

One of the best ran, most welcoming and beautiful restaurants in Cincinnati. BUT, for tilapia sweet potato fries and broccoli for $18.99 is 30% overpriced. There must have neem 300 people there and the service as usual was excellent. One more thing... the grease needs to be changed badly for the sweet potato fries. Gave us bad gas. Phew doggies read more

This place is amazing! We booked a work luncheon of about 30 people. Initially we were placed in the open seating area and later moved to the enclosed room. This was fantastic as it made our farewell luncheon for a co-worker more intimate. The staff were AMAZING and so courteous even though we had a large party. The food was amazing and it came out extremely fast! Highly recommend this restaurant to everyone! read more

The lot for this place is always full and bustling. It's a real locals hang out. My wife and I have tried it a few times. The food is ok but feels overpriced for the quality. The draw of this place appears to be the atmosphere more than the food. read more

They have great salads & it is a really fun environment. They also have pretty fast service if you don't have a ton of time.

This is my go to when visitors come to town. The food is very good especially the wide variety of salads. But people return because of the ambiance. It's like a resort tiki bar in the middle of the city. The servers are always busy but very friendly. Like I said, my go to spot. read more

I have eaten here so many times and each time the food is good but never great. The atmosphere makes this place thrive. The free popcorn appetizer is great for the kids. We typically never wait unless it's a Friday night when CHCA has a football game. read more

Great chicken. Nice bar. Very hot with no AC. Great Red Ale from local brewery. Very large parking lot for big trucks.

Great selection for a quick and healthy lunch! Excellent selection of salads!! Quick and friendly service.

Been going here for years and it never disappoints us! Food is wonderful and love the open airy inside seating during the warm months. They have 3 bars and we always find a seat with a TV in front of us. It is a place for all ages and a great local hangout. read more

This is a great outdoor patio with cooling air conditioning and oh mercy amazing chicken tenders! Don't forget the ranch!!!

My favorite resturant. Always get the burger wrap. Great atmosphere. Service is always great. Good place to watch a game. And the remodel looks amazing. read more

My wife and I came into your restaurant around 3:30pm on Saturday. We have lived in this area for about 30 years and throughout the years I have heard wonderful things about your restaurant. Here are the details. Our waitress was Deanna the table was 204/1 and the receipt for $27.86 time stamped on 9/12 @ 3:53pm. When we placed our order. We placed an order for 2 chicken sandwiches and an order of onion rings that I specified for an appetizer. After waiting about 10 minutes our sandwiches were brought out by another server. We had not seen our server and had not received the appetizer. I told the person who was dropping off our food. We didn't receive really any sort of apology or a suggestion on how it was going to be made right. I said since we did not get them as we ordered then we would not want. Again no real apologies. After many more minutes our waitress finally came out and did give a half hearted apology. Never asked how our food was or asked if we needed any refills. I asked for some mayo and it took may minutes and no sense of urgency to get it. Again no concern for how our food was or refills. After we ate our meal I waved her down and asked for check and boxes. STILL did not ask how food was. The food was fine however this was the absolute worst service we have received since we were teenagers many years ago. It is a shame but we will NEVER patronize this place again and will share our experience with as many people as we can. I wanted to take a few minutes to share with you our horrible experience. read more

Love this place. The environment is great and the food is consistently good. I eat a lot of wings and I think they have the best wings in town. They have an expansive beer selection with 5-6 rotating taps. Only complaint would be the servers don't have a list and rarely know what the rotating taps are. If you're looking for good food and a chill night out, then this is your place. Kid friendly as well. read more

I am really trying to understand what is good about this place. Yes, the chicken does taste okay, but it is really hard to make chicken? It is just bar food in a dirty atmosphere. The place could use a really good scrubbing and the service is horrible. Save your money and go to a good place. read more
