City View Tavern

Quiet little burger joint with a beautiful view. The burger was juicy. The bartender didn't listen very well with the condiments, but I won't complain. The view was immaculate. The patrons there were nice and welcoming. I'll go again when I am on that side of town.

Get the famous Teddy burger! Yes it takes awhile to cook, get a drink & enjoy the incredible view! The wait is worth every second! Hangs down one of the best burgers I've ever had!

Awesome place, drinks were great Bartender was awesome, I have been a customer from the Ted Lengeman days, especially when the deli and pony keg was out front. A great piece of Cincinnati history that needs to be respected and preserved, I'm a 3rd generation customer.

Love a burger at City View! A great spot with a great view of the city. I most recently had the Cheddar Bacon Burger with A-1 Sauce and it was delicious! ** Pic is of the burger with lettuce, pickle, onion and mayo from a previous visit which was also yummy**

City View Tavern is a simple, no nonsense dive bar with a priceless view of downtown Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Genuine bartender with short, honest answers that runs this place his way. The inside likely has not changed in decades. Park on the street or get a ride here. No parking lot. Put your favorite song on for $2. The outside seating area is not big, but we were able to quickly find a table on a Saturday night.

The view, of course! I think this rating was based partially on nostalgia, too. My husband worked here in college (in the 90s!) & I loved coming here to celebrate the Reds & Bengals. I’d argue the burgers are still the best in town. It was pleasantly crowded, not packed; easy to place/get our order. Bathroom is still terrible 🙂

Delicious burgers and amazing view!! You can not get a burger this good anywhere for what they charge. It was very quiet when I came in but honestly I enjoyed it, it was relaxing. I see some people have had some negative things to say about some staff, but Silas was the only one working when I was there and he was very nice. I will definitely be back to try other burgers. Great meal and view for under $10.

This was the perfect stop to catch up with some old friends from Cincinnati over a beer. It offers an incredible view of Downtown on the outdoor patio, but has a casual and relaxed atmosphere -- I've been jaded by places great views making you pay the price in pretentiousness. This place isn't one of them! It felt familiar and welcoming, in no small part because of the warm and friendly service. The place was super clean - including the bathrooms. I'll definitely be back, and next time I'll try the food.
