"Cute but very little place. Outdoor seating was a nice option. We stopped in for a drink. The staff was awesome and the drinks were definitely well crafted. A little on the smaller side but they got us taken care of"

"Dear Longfellow, I wanted to take a moment to express my praise and appreciation for the exceptional bar program you have established at Longfellow Bar. It truly stands out as a class act in Cincinnati. The experience you provide is nothing short of wonderful, and it's clear that a lot of thought and care goes into every detail. Furthermore, the entire umbrella of establishments you oversee in the city is phenomenal. Each one brings something unique and valuable to our community, and it's a testament to your vision and dedication. As a local resident deeply invested in the continued growth and revitalization of our neighborhoods, I wanted to share a thought that has been on my mind. With the exciting rebirth happening north of Liberty Street, particularly around the Findlay Market area, there seems to be a perfect opportunity for a new venture. A speakeasy in this vibrant and historic neighborhood could be a beautiful addition, tying seamlessly into the local culture and atmosphere. A high-end, elevated bar program in a speakeasy format would not only switch things up a bit within your company but also likely become a big hit in the area. It could offer a unique and sophisticated experience that complements the existing character of Findlay Market and its surroundings. Thank you for considering this idea. I have no doubt that whatever you decide to pursue next will be met with great success, given your proven track record. Best regards,Scott Ford"

"What a lovely and friendly place! We had just come from a high end bar where the bartenders did not smile or talk at anytime to any customer even when the tab was being paid. (As a former bartender and server, I notice such things.) At Longfellows it was the opposite. The folks behind the bar were so friendly and engaging! The crowd was very local (we were visiting a local friend for the eclipse), and we did not want for interesting conversation. Definitely will be back next time we’re in Cincy!"

"Cozy neighborhood spot with great cocktails and a small but mighty menu. The olives are a great value, and the egg salad sandwich was very tasty. The bartenders were so friendly, and people came in and out greeting people by name all evening. What a gem!"

"This bar really sets the standard in Cincinnati. The bartenders are true artists-mixologists. And the food is fantastic as well. While not a full restaurant menu, delish! It really is the perfect neighborhood bar."
