Great atmosphere. Excellent prices. Lots of tv screens to watch a big game. Will definitely be back.

Came for the car bombs stayed for Betsy's professional service and great music playlist. Try the Spicy Popcorn! read more

The Bramble Patch - a bar with a flat screen tv - Pubs Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Cheap cold beer and friendly service. Keno is great. Fun environment suitable for all legal aged drinkers

Loved this bar the moment I saw it from the street. Actually from the moment I heard what it was called. The place looks pretty sketch from the outside. The only windows are glass block and the two square ones that are on the security doors, making this place look very strip club or speakeasy-esque. Upon entering you will find one of the better dive bars in town. It smells like my parents' basement even with the ceiling fans on full blast. It is nice and cool in here. The crowd is friendly and easygoing. No one is going to stare you down for not being one of "them". Drinks are cheap. Hudy Amber on draft was a nice selection. There are TVs for watching sports. The bar is generally loud, but you can still hold a conversation with the people next to you. This is a very comfortable hangout that the more pretentious have yet to stumble across, and it's got a great name! read more

I've been going to this bar between 11 to 13 years. Never had any issues and never caused any issues before incident. Always believed in treating others as you would have them treat you. I Parked my car today in a legal spot across the street from the patch and was not blocking any driveways. Apparently a neighbor of Cyan didn't like the fact I parked my car in front of her house and called into the bar to complain with nothing better to do saying she couldn't back out. Upon coming out to inspect my parking job it was in no way blocking any portion of her drive way. After calling her out for the crazy complaint she threatened to call the cops saying I was parking on her property which of course it isn't, the city owns the street. After I obliged her request to move my vehicle to a different spot I go back into bramble and this Karen calls in to complain to Cyan. After I mention I really shouldn't have moved my car to Cyan she states it's a neighbor of hers and if she says something needs to be moved just listen and don't talk do it. I said I don't care if it's your neighbor. If someone is acting like an asshole and acting disrespectful I'm not one today down and take that kind of behavior. I've always liked Cyan and have always treated her and the staff with respect and tipped well. I can't understand how she could take this side and ban me. read more

Would like to enjoy this place with local friends but a certain bartender plays favorites often... Never had a problem with any other bartender but Besty... I don't go here offten because of her... owners should take note... she's running off business per a personal vendetta... Straight up told me to go drink at the other bar because I wasn't welcome. Never had that problem with the other bartender's but her... over a dozen people have come from the patch stating the same or similar circumstances, you would think this would raise an eyebrow, but nope the owners either refuse to acknowledge, or turn their heads.... been going on for years... **update its been 8 months, I tried to "burry the hatchet" she wouldn't even sell me a lotto ticket... judgmental and holds grudges. If you don't like that I put a review like this maybe you should stop acting in this manner... you know there is a problem when grown women come into the "other" bar in tears... read more

Solid dive bar. Friendly staff and great prices. Fair warning: there is an awful high pitched ringing noise that (so I've been told by staff) the owner refuses to fix. Apparently they need a new amp for the speakers. read more

Several words always jump to mind when I think about The Patch: ONE- CLEAN... This place is clean. Meticulously clean. No sticky bits on the floor or the bar. The bathrooms are the cleanest I've ever seen in a little neighborhood bar. The bar always smells clean. I spent a long time working bars and I'd be proud to be on the staff here. TWO- FRIENDLY... The staff and the regulars are always welcoming. I am not a regular here but I do hit it a couple times a year and I've never had that "locals only" feel you get some places. The bartenders give great service to everyone, not just the people that are there four or five times a week. This should be a destination bar. Even if it's not close or convenient, hit this place up some night to watch a game or play pool. It has an old timey feel and is immediately comfortable. If you are within a couple miles you MUST put this place into your regular rotation! read more

If it has coconut tequila I'm a fan! This bar is local and priced fairly! I enjoy the pool table and my drink. The juke box they have has come a long way as far as variety goes. I miss the Jell-O shots they used to have, but I won't complain since the have my select choice tequila. If you're ever in the area and want a lil drink or to shoot some pool this would be a great spot to visit! It's not over crowded and you can enjoy yourself without tons of men hounding you for your attention... And that's enough to keep me coming back! read more

Perfect as a peach! My new, low-cost unassuming dive bar lies here. Admittedly, I originally thought the Bramble Patch might be closed by its exterior. Tsk, tsp: It's a wonderland inside. Consider the possibilities of $3 Yuenglings, dim lighting, and an old-timey jukebox. These three factors indubitably amount to a fun, timeless night. Walkable from almost anywhere in Mariemont, I'll venture to the Bramble Patch for a getaway from the everyday. It helps that there are no windows--time surely passes by if you don't know if the sun is up or down :) The clientele doesn't give two...er...ducks who blesses their presence in the Bramble Patch. Consider this the "one size fits all" bar. No judgment, no sneers, no woo girls. Come and get your stiff drink. Enjoy the game. Indulge in banter. No food or anything here, so bring in your grub or eat beforehand. See you soon, Bramble Patch! read more

A very simple, no-frills neighborhood bar with a great staff behind the bar. Also the only bar I've ever been in before noon. (They keep very flexible hours for the drinking crowd. Not that I'm a drunk or anything...er..) You may not find your obscure craft beers here, but you will find a reasonably priced cold beverage. read more

The Bramble Patch - a brick building with a coca cola sign - Pubs Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I know from the outside The Bramble Patch looks like a place where you'd encounter a biker gang and a lot of dirty looks for walking in and not being a regular but from the inside you'd discover it's one of, if not the, nicest dive bars in the area. It's extremely clean, the bartenders are extremely friendly, the drinks are strong, and the regulars seemed happy to see new people in the bar. Our bartender Allie was probably one of the best we've ever had and we were very impressed over how she was able to remember orders of the friends we mentioned who told us to check it out! I wish they sold cooked food but the grippos and bagged dill pickles made up for it. With great drinks and a happy hour that extends until 9:00, we'll be back soon! read more

Not be local to this area I won't get here often, but I really wish I could. Its like they have transplanted all the things I love about West Side dive bars and transplanted them to the East Side. One more reason for a 40 minute drive! Drinks are strong, strong and cheap! The bartender was incredibly friendly and very patient when my friend took FOREVER deciding what he wanted to drink. We had 3 drinks and diet coke and our total bill was $12. Nice! The place is dark and old like all the best dive bars are, but seems very clean. And ladies... the restrooms have been recently remodeled and are always clean. I wouldn't drive across town just to go to this bar because it has about 10 doppelgangers near my house (on the west side), but I would definitely become a regular when I am in the area. read more

Great neighborhood bar! Inside newly renovated and clean. Cheap beers and friendly staff. Can't go wrong with that!!!

Great little dive bar in Madisonville. Good beer prices. Great place to watch Sunday football. Just get there early to find a seat before the game. read more

Great neighborhood bar, come as you are and as long as you're not bothering anyone you're accepted. Great pricing, try the rum bucket!

The bartenders are super friendly and can pour one hell of a drink! Best whiskey coke in Ohio!

I love the Bramble Patch! Super cheap drinks, Keno, Chili cook-offs. They have good music on the juke box. Bengal sundays are the best. Lots of good energy and they have a raffle at half time. I've won twice! The bar tenders are great. Whenever we go out of town we look for the "Bramble Patch" of that town. We haven't found one yet! It's the one and only! read more

you want to pay your bar tab in change? you want to watch football? you want to walk in to a bar with a crock pot? would you like to meet papa smurf? You can do all these things at the Bramble Patch, home to the NICEST bathrooms a dive bar will ever have. Get a local pitcher for the cost of a craft beer anywhere else in town. read more

So happy this dive bar is right down the street from where I live. A laid back, clean, friendly bar and ten bucks will go a long way. This place is open every single day till 230! And the scratch offs are endless, try not to do too many. read more

Inexpensive, clean with good service! Neighborhood bar for the most part but can get a local restaurant crowd late night. Especially on the week days. I have noticed a small expansion on the craft beer and an update with the TVs so a great place to watch the game! Take shots, get loud and enjoy pool, Golden T or Keeno. Quite possibly the best old school juke box in southern Ohio thanks to the owner allowing regulars to put home made CDs in the juke box. Overall a great Cincy experience just make sure to bring your ID! read more

New in town, I needed a break from the monotony of internet job searching, learning Google mapping and generally wondering what planet I was on. I decided to check out The Bramble Patch, just down the street. As soon as I walked in, I felt that "Deja-Vu, all over again" feeling I got when going out in my hometown of Youngstown, OH...but with a difference: Most neighborhood pubs in Y'town have either been replaced by ripoff check-cashing joints, become havens for drug-dealing thieves, or bulldozed altogether, sad to say! The Bramble has the best of old and new; that happy medium: Old, beautiful bar fixtures- brand new TV's, newer beverages- Hudepohl on Tap,(WHA!), classic bar pool table- CD jukebox (with BEST selection I've seen in a while)! But above all, a great relaxing atmosphere, with great mellow folks who just want to have a decompressing, insanity-free beverage! It's refreshing to know that some thing haven't changed: Bravo! Bramble on... read more
