In town for National Chili Day (4th Thursday of February) and Cincinnati Chili Week. I have been…read morehunting for places I haven't been to, this trip. Empress Chili is brought in here. Bartender said they bought Empress, but there must also be franchises, as there's one in Alexandria KY. Delicious recipe from 1922, - "the First Edition of a Cincinnati tradition." I went with the classic 3-way and it didn't disappoint. Brooke was very friendly. Definitely has a sports bar feel with 16 TV's. Rest of menu offers something for everyone. They offer a dimly lit surroundings with community/large group tables as well as both high tops and regular tables. Big L shaped bar too.

This place is yet another one of the small bars that line Harrison Ave. in Cheviot. There is…read morenothing offensive or outstanding about it. It is just another bar. It is a casual bar that anyone can walk into. It is not a locals-only, where only the regulars get service. On the other hand, it is not a place where you are welcomed in as a long lost friend. You are generally ignored by the other patrons and staff alike. Service at the bar is perfectly reasonable. The place is never so busy to make you wait for your drink for very long. My go-to drink is a tall diet and vodka... their tall is very small. It does not last me very long.... The drinks are not weak or strong- just average. Prices are about typical for the area of town. Definitely cheaper than a bar downtown. The bar itself is small and clean. Plenty of seating along the bar and at high round tables. Bathrooms are old, but clean. There is a jukebox, but fortunately the music is never very loud. If you are looking for a casual night out with friends, chilling and talking, Rootie's is a perfectly acceptable place to go.
