One of many fabulous coffee shops in downtown Cincinnati, this spot has a bunch of rotating flavors and many delicious baked goods to choose from. Hop on a Red Bike or Bird and explore downtown when you visit!

This location of ToB is just down the street from our old stomping grounds on The Banks! They have incredible Belgian waffles that we highly recommend (pro tip: you can also get a pack to-go!).

In the mood for some fluffy pancakes or a fancy omelette?! Park near Fountain Square and walk on over to Sleepy Bee Cafe for a tasty classic brunch!

If you've never gotten to visit the Rhinegeist Taproom in Over-the-Rhine, now is the time! They have beers and ciders of all sorts, as well as cocktails for our non-beer pals. They also have a cool rooftop deck!

Findlay Market really has it all: an enormous variety of food stands/restaurants, booths to shop for merchandise, and fabulous outdoor seating. Some of our favorites are Eli's BBQ, Churchill's Teas, Em's Bread and Saigon Market.

If you haven't been to Cincinnati in a while, then this park may be brand new to you - it's a must see and just down the stairs from our venue! Take a walk along the riverfront paths, sit on the swings overlooking the water, or enjoy some of the fountains located all around the park. There are also play areas if you have little ones to entertain!

Time for another Cincinnati staple: Graeter's Ice Cream! We love this Fountain Square location where you can sit and enjoy the downtown energy. Our favorite flavors are Black Raspberry Chip and Salted Caramel, but you can't go wrong with any of them!

This is one of our favorite parts in Cincinnati, and definitely the one we visited most when we lived on The Banks. Just a streetcar ride away in OTR, Washington Park has gorgeous green areas, views of Music Hall, fountains/play areas, and even a dog park to enjoy.

Via Vite is one of our go-to date night restaurants in Cincinnati! Located in Fountain Square (yes, Graeter's is RIGHT THERE), they have incredible Italian food. Our favorite is the pasta bolognese.

We recommend getting a reservation to The Eagle if you come to town - or preparing to put your name in and grab a drink anywhere on Vine Street while you wait. This place is THAT good - we love their fried chicken sandwich and spoonbread best! (Ellen also swears they make the best lemon drop martini in town, if you're feeling fancy.)

A delicious local coffee shop in Covington, KY. Their iced lattes are our favorite! Bonus: find the world's cutest book shop inside and prettiest riverfront homes nearby!

Another delicious coffee shop in Covington, KY! This place brews local Carabello coffee and has rotating treats depending on the day you visit. Check out their website and learn about how your yummy cup of coffee supports the missions of an awesome local nonprofit.

Cedar doesn't only have the best brunch on our block, but it is also where we had dinner after our backyard wedding ceremony! They have a variety of tasty mimosas (and other fun drinks), as well as wonderful options for breakfast and lunch.

Who doesn't love a local brewery?! Check out some of Covington's finest beers and hard seltzers here near downtown Covington. They also have an incredible rooftop deck!

Ready for a sweet treat to top off a fabulous day of exploring the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky neighborhoods? Stop by Piper's and try some of our very favorite local soft-serve ice cream. If you're feeling it, you can also make your dessert boozy!

This wonderful place is just a couple of doors down from our home in Mainstrasse. We are regulars here - they have lots of wines and beers on tap, and the BEST charcuterie around (their maple-sriracha bacon is a must-have).

We love coming to Libby's! They have fantastic outdoor spaces to enjoy all of the delicious Southern treats that they serve. They have some awesome frozen drinks!

Who doesn't love a vibrant restaurant inspired by Frida Kahlo herself?! They have pitchers of margaritas (all sorts of flavors) and all sorts of tacos, salsas, and other tasty items. Their queso is one of our favorite apps in Mainstrasse!
