Although I prefer distilleries away from urban areas Angel's Envy caught my eye several years ago after seeing a video made by the late graphic designer, Julius Friedman. An old historic building renovated into an attractive distillery plus half off a tour because it was Hometown Tourist Month was an offer I couldn't refuse. The tour is an hour long with a tasting at the end. Although there is a pay parking lot next to the distillery just a block east on Main Street you can find free parking. I simply parked on Hancock Street(side street off of East Main Street). If you are willing to park a block and half away you can save money. You are also the nearby NuLu district of East Market Street with a number of local shops and restaurants plus some coffee shops.

As a recent retiree, I'm on the lookout for cheap good eats. I feel like I hit the jackpot at Monnik Beer in Germantown. Their sides are $3 at lunchtime. Hub and I split a lion's mane sandwich with 3 sides: pickled cabbage, grilled broccolini and stamppot....mashed potatoes with carrots and kale. So good! Love Monnik s menu everyday but love their lunch special even more. They have a really nice atmosphere, outside seating, great service and upscale pub and healthy food items. Of course the beer and drinks menu is great with fun non alcoholic choices. I tell the bartender what I like and they create a mocktail for me. Nice garden outback that is good for kids. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants and with good prices.

I would like to start by saying this place has amazing potential! I ordered the chicken & waffle(s).. a very well seasoned chicken breast served on a waffle. The waffle was a little tuff. If possible I would love to substitute for pancakes. I would definitely eat the chicken as a sandwich as well. My mom ordered the breakfast burger. She said it was good! It was served with a side of fries. They would be good if they were deep fried. The only downside to the side Caesar salad was the dressing was too thick for my liking. It was not a traditional caesar dressing. The drinks were good! The bottomless Mimosas was a nice shareable size. I would definitely recommend this place. It is a beautiful venue!

Ate here alone on Saturday for lunch. There were about 8 tables occupied. There were only 2 servers, a male and a female, and the male was doing almost all the work, but he was really hustling, so the service was good and attentive. I had the mushrooms with spicy ranch appetizer and the meat loaf dinner with jalapeno cheddar potatoes and green beans. Everything tasted great. I had strawberry shortcake for dessert--small portion, but good. This place was a 45 minute drive away, so I probably can't return soon, but anyone on the east side of Cincy would probably find it a rewarding experience.

The former home to the Bacon-Makin People, otherwise known as the Fischer Meat packing plant, now houses an antique mall, artist studios/galleries, specialty stores, office spaces, fitness businesses, rehearsal areas for dancers and theatre groups, a pizza place, and much more. They have space available for rent and have hosted art fairs, concerts, and film festivals, just to name a few. Almost twenty years ago, they traded in hogs hanging by their hocks for art hanging on the walls. It smells much better now. I've been here several times over the years since they repurposed this space. It's nice, and I'm glad this old plant didn't sit vacant or get razed. They seem to have quite a bit going on here to keep it healthy and vital. Danny Mac's Pizza and Mellwood Antiques seem to be some of the biggest draws for daily customers, along with the fitness studios. It's an eclectic mix here and a good use of space. The location is convenient from the east and downtown, and is just off of I-71 at Zorn.

Came on a Tuesday night.Food (burger and fish and chips) was good, portions were a bit small.Had margaritas on the happy hour--but outside of the happy hour drinks seemed a little steep.It is a very cute venue and the location for something like this has a lot of potential.Service we had no complaints!

This place is a great spot to watch games. They've got ton of tvs, great deals and fantastic bar food. If you're looking for a good pool hall - this is the spot!
