Social Profile:

Whimsical bar, named after bluesman Blind Lemon Jefferson, with live music & lots of cocktails. Located in the heart of Mt. Adams, The Blind Lemon has been a Cincinnati institution and hidden gem for nearly 60 years. Inside the bar itself, you will find a rare setting of old world comfort, lit by firelight and a kaleidoscope of soft, warm Tiffany lamplight. The charming underground tavern houses an eclectic collection of old time memorabilia, with the shine of copper, classic car and plane models, and ornately framed paintings and signed photographs delightfully crowding the walls and ceiling, and creating a unique atmosphere in which to enjoy one of our craft cocktails, local beers, or spirit of your choosing.

Magical place! Like falling into a Hobbit hole. Excellent drinks, Little Miss Sour my new fave. Great for a date, cozy talks, any time any day. Can’t wait to go back for music & outdoor weather

Usually have a very nice time here – always have had a positive experience. Just came in tonight and walked in to the bartender loudly complaining that more people just walked into the bar. Then she asked me how many people and when I responded she said they were full in a very aggressive tone. I was shocked – I’ve never been treated this way in any bar before. Not my fault it was a busy night. Disappointed.

Just popped in for their Irish Irish Coffee in front of the fire before the snow started. Always cozy and intimate. Nicest bartenders.

Went here to actually get photos for a college project, a jazz themed session, the staff were so welcoming and understanding! This tavern is so cozy and unique. I love this hidden little gem! Would return here as a customer due to how polite the staff were.

What a lovely place! I enjoyed the chill vibe here. The live music was great. Drinks were great too. The have a fireplace outside in the patio/garden area. Overall, great place for a date or if you don’t like loud music and want to be able to talk comfortably.

This is one of my favorite bars in Cincinnati- the atmosphere is incredible whether you choose to sit indoors or on the patio. Sometimes there is live music. The cocktails are also delicious- I personally recommend their hot drink menu when it’s chilly outside. You need to stop by!

Delicious drinks, I’m blanking on the names but the menu cocktails with bourbon +amaretto, and rye+honey+bitters were both very very good. I went on a pretty busy Saturday night and it was only thanks to friends showing up earlier that I did not have to wait for seating, otherwise you may have a bit of a wait during peak hours like that. Decor is very charming, service was overall good, the live music present can be a little loud but not overbearingly so & I’m generally sensitive to sound so most folks should be totally fine. Will be back for drinks again.

The Blind Lemon is a very cool historic speak easy that has an amazing atmosphere. Only down side I have ever encountered was our last bartender. I overheard him complaining to a coworker that he was yelled at by his boss for not having the gate unlocked at 3pm when they opened and then the customer (my husband and I) only ordered well bourbon. Well that well bourbon and my chocolate martini totaled $50 bucks!!! If he’s going to complain about customers, make sure not to do it in earth of said customer.

This was one of the most interesting bars I’ve been to. It almost gave me like an oldies speakeasy vibe. They had a fireplace both inside and outside and the place felt very intimate and cozy. One of the workers pulled out the chair for me and also helped me get my coat on which felt very high in. Our waitress was very nice and made sure to come back quite a few times to check on us (I don’t personally like when waiters do this, as it makes me feel rushed, but I still wouldn’t change my rating). The live music was cool and they have speakers outside so you could hear if you sit out there. They don’t have prices on the menu which sort of stinks. I thought it would be very expensive because the prices were not shown but my drink (Milky Way) was only $9 ( I wish they would put the prices on the menu. My friend mentioned she would have gotten another if she knew it wasn’t too expensive). Wonderful atmosphere. My drink was also amazing; it was amaretto with hot coco.

Amazing vibes, friendly staff, and great local business. Parking is a little tough but other than that, no complaints!!! Favorite spot in the city and lowkey with live music and close to the Mt. Adam’s Bar & Grill.
