But the second you walk in, something just clicks. It's easy -- like you've been here before in another life or like you've known this energy forever. The vibe is calm but magnetic. Not trying too hard, not putting on a show -- just honest, comfortable, and kind of intoxicating in the quietest way. You could stay for hours and still not want to leave, even after last call. That kind of place. There's a warmth that sneaks up on you -- the kind that makes you laugh more than you thought you would. Makes you say things you didn't plan to say. Makes you wonder how something so easy can also feel so rare. I don't know what kind of magic they've got going on here, but it's working. Trust me -- this place stays with you. Vinny is the best

Sundy's exemplifies such a dive bar and is located in Finneytown, about 10 miles north of downtown. It is a small, family-owned establishment, so don't be surprised if--after only 2 or 3 visits--the bartenders and frequenters remember your face. The bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable, and the drink prices are probably too reasonable (but don't tell them I said that!). There are daily drink specials that will satisfy even the hardest of drinkers. Sundy's is "The Home of the Stormcloud" but I always recommend the Nada Bomb: originated on the West side, it is a shot comprised of cherry vodka, orange juice, red bull and a splash of cran. These shots run $5 per, so I always suggest simply buying a pitcher for the unbeatable price of $20 (the pitcher equals about 10 shots, so it's a really great deal, especially to buy for a round). Feel free to come visit to sit back and enjoy Trivia Night on Thursdays (www.lastcalltrivia.com), watch your favorite team(s) on any of its multiple flat screens, or just to hang out with friends. Though, don't plan on coming in on Sundays, as that is the only day the bar is closed during the week.

Wow. This place is a TOTAL surprise, in a good way!…read more Upon entering you'll notice it is super clean, spick and span, and even though I guess you would call it a dive or a saloon the owner is meticulous and really cares about his establishment. Mike (the owner himself) was our bartender for the night and he was incredibly sweet. He shared his story and it had SO much history behind it. Turns out Second Street Saloon gets it's name because it used to be located on second street downtown. After so many years his lease was up and he decided to make the Westside home - hence why this bar does not feel uniquely "west side." He moved every piece of memorabilia he had collected over the 25+ years of owning it into this new location. Now, I usually hate collages and junk on the wall but his are framed and look really nice. There are many framed photos of Cincinnati from the 1800's on. He also had the original door from Second St. framed and hung next to the bar - which by the way is an antique that he had picked out and appraised by the Wooden Nickel. They had more than enough craft beer and local beer available that you got a decent selection but didn't feel overwhelmed. It was also a pint night where you got to keep the glass. We played darts and really had a great time here. At the end of our bar crawl we all agreed that we could have spent the entire night here at Second Street. For what it is, this place gets 5 stars from me, and I can't wait to go back.

If you don't like standing room only- Late Friday and Saturday nights aren't for you- but that's when the fun begins for me!! This isn't a pretentious bar like Bartini or Mynt Martini Club but it is a friendly clean and well priced neighborhood bar that you will find yourself coming back to on a regular basis!

We got there at 6:30pm to have dinner prior to them closing the kitchen when the music starts. There was no waitress service unless you paid for a VIP table with had a $100 surcharge and came with service and a bottle of champagne. Met the owner Brian and he was personable and extremely hard working. This was our first time in this tavern and we would definitely go again. On this occasion we saw the Noah Wotherspoon Band and they were excellent. This place has 13 tables and ~20 bar seats. Super small venue so don't forget to either come early or make a reservation. The hubby had the chips and queso and did not care for it but the burger and fries he ordered were fine. I ordered 3 apps, onion rings, green tomatoes, and deep fried carrots. I liked the green tomatoes the least. The fried carrots will definitely be ordered again, the were perfectly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Our friends both ordered patty melts and said they liked them. We all had cocktails and beer and they were fine. Definitely liked the vibe here and we will go back to see someone else soon.

Despite having such a large group, drinks were out fast and there was plenty of seating. 2 things stick out here: Decor and the Drinks. Both were impeccably done. The nature meets wood and brick aesthetic is so purposefully laid out and when the eye cruises across the landscape it's so satisfying!! We had a LOT of drinks, but the jade river, el toro rojo, and pacific muse were our favorites. The drinks are priced pretty well ($12-$14) and the service was very prompt, always cleaning up empty glasses and clearing space for more people to sit. I for SURE recommend this place as a spot to come and throw a couple rounds back. We stayed for hours and drank and talked our hearts out! Thank you for such a wonderful night. 5 stars.

They offer delicious seasonal drinks, and every drink & shot I've tried has been amazing! My absolute favorite thing I've had here (and one of the best drinks I've ever had period) is their S'mores Espresso Martini! It's literally perfection; aesthetically it's fun but still well composed as any espresso martini should be; it's has the right balance of sweet & coffee, & all of the flavors really make it taste like you're drinking an espresso flavored s'more! If you see this on the menu, it is a must try!
