The Hub

📍 Gay bars in Cincinnati

5.5

Nestled in Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, this eclectic bar offers a unique blend of atmosphere and entertainment. The space is intentionally quirky and dark, creating an intimate setting for patrons. With a pool table, karaoke on Sundays, and occasional live music, comedy acts, and pop-up shops, there's always something happening. The sidewalk seating and proximity to other eateries make it a convenient spot to unwind.

The bar is known for its strong drinks and impressive non-alcoholic options, catering to a diverse crowd. Staff are friendly, and the wall art provides plenty of conversation starters. While it may not appeal to everyone, those who enjoy a dive bar experience will appreciate its charm and the opportunity to see local bands and lesser-known touring groups.

A cool little neighborhood bar in OTR. It's been great just vibing there and hanging with the regulars and bartenders. They have a pool table in the back. Karaoke on Sundays. Sometimes they host live music, comedy acts, and pop-up shops for local artists. There's sidewalk seating. They have snacks (also there are good restaurants on the same block).

Very cool little space! It's "dark and dingy" and rough looking but in an intentional way that's cute and quirky, making you love it even more. The drinks were fantastic. Ask about the house specials!!

This place is an acquired taste. I think I visited on the wrong night. Wasn’t feeling it going in, but the guy I was with loved every minute of it. We stayed for a few beers. Staff was super nice and we had fun.

Great bags of chips for food. Impeccable atmosphere. An all star dive bar. Exceptional staff and a great stand up comedy open mic on Mondays!

A good bar to see local bands and lesser known touring groups, it's one of the few non corporate bars in the neighborhood left.

If you want an eclectic bar with the strongest drinks in town head to the Hub. The atmosphere and people are inviting. The wall art will give you conversation topics and things to look at. For all of those non drinkers that still enjoy the bar atmosphere, the list on non alcoholic drinks is tremendous. Not just an o’douls and Shirley temple’s but good cocktails. I love this bar. We make it a must stop before or after reds games.

Great dive bar. Good drink selection. Playing pool there was fun. Will definitely go back. I heard their Sunday karaoke is a lot of fun!
