Vintage on Race, sports bar & lounge, will be a mix of the luxury of an athletics club and the warmth of a family bar, walking the line between upscale and comfortable. The venue will be a balance of warmth and vibrancy, with a touch of nostalgia in its groovy, retro vibes.
Vintage on Race is our quintessential sports bar. Vintage’s cuisine is a mix of Classic American Fare with the addition of some unique, eclectic, and healthy food options you expect to find in a diverse city like Cincinnati. Vintage on Race will be Cincinnati’s premier spot for upscale cocktails. We encourage you to spectate socially.

First time here and had a great experience. Would recommend the nachos to share! Also the fries are very good. Great place to watch the game. Big shout out to Maddie for serving us!!! She’s a queen and was so helpful + attentive.

I will preface this with my husband and I are both hospitality professionals. Our server was Koby. The atmosphere was fine, albeit quiet for Saturday brunch with a huge convention one block away. Service was awful, food was mixed. My salad was bad but my husband loved his chicken and waffles. It was clear from the beginning
Koby was either new or not interested in his position. He did not know the table numbers or the menu. My Caesar salad (pretty basic dish) was bad, like the dressing was sour. I would have alerted the server and ordered a new item but Koby never returned to check on us. He was quite busy at the bar on his phone and then later at the other bar eating his own lunch. I drank all of my water about halfway through my meal so my husband gave me his water and went without. I did not see a manager during our visit. Koby did not prebus (see pictures) but did bring the check to cash us out. After running our card and returning the check to be signed he neglected to return our credit card. At this point in our visit we were already irritated (remember I was eating rancid dressing and had an empty beverage) so the missing credit card was the proverbial straw. Typically 25% tippers but absolutely not in this case. Our first visit and probably our last. We understood why there were only 3 tables during Saturday brunch with a huge convention one block away.

Friends brought us here saying it was the best happy hour in town. In October 2025, you could get a fantastic double cheeseburger with sweet potato or regular fries for just $10 and a fantastic old fashioned. I don’t know what time it starts, but I believe it’s Monday through Friday till 6 o’clock.

From start to finish, Vintage delivered an outstanding experience. The bartenders were top-notch, friendly, knowledgeable, and made some of the best drinks I’ve had in a while. The food was equally impressive, flavorful, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented.
Service was quick and efficient without ever feeling rushed, and the staff works well together. Management was visible, approachable, and clearly runs a tight ship. You can tell they care about both their team and the guest experience.
Highly recommend, can’t wait to come back!

The food and service was both amazing. My friends and I went for a girls day brunch on Saturday and our server just made this experience a 10/10! I think her name was Maddy, but she was so amazing, while she was busy with other tables she was still able to keep up with us and all of our needs. Overall we will definitely be coming back to this place, but had to give our server a shout out!!

A MUST STOP DOWNTOWN NEAR FOUNTAIN SQUARE. Vintage is such a cool upscale restraunt/bar! Stopped in for some drinks and appetizers before hitting the town and our server Hayley was top tier! Despite her size, she works like she could take on the whole place! Hayley recommended the old fashioned and the espresso martini and both did not disappoint. Buffalo cauliflower and the Philly egg rolls will definitely be ordered again on our next visit. Hopefully Hayley is there too because she is one of the main reasons we had such a good time. A big plus for us was the manager Christian was popping around the dining room asking tables how their experience was. He was invested in making sure everything was running smooth and that’s how things should be. I’m so glad we didn’t listen to the previous reviews, because this place does not reflect that at all.

Brunch was underwhelming at Vintage. Best summarized by poor customer service, poor staffing, and bland food.
I visited Vintage for Brunch during restaurant week. They were understaffed resulting in poor service, wrong items ordered, food improperly coursed, and overall being ignored by the staff. They didn’t offer to comp or cover anything despite all the delays and issues. Management should have better anticipated the interest and staffed appropriately.
The avocado toast was on untoasted soggy white bread and lacked flavor. The guacamole was bland with chips that didn’t seem fresh. The chicken and waffle was nothing special. The chicken was just 3 chicken tenders that needed a more flavorful brine. The waffle was fluffy, but didn’t blend with the rest of the meal.
The only positives here were the red velvet pancakes & mimosas. The aesthetic of restaurant was adorable. If the food and service were better, I’d consider returning.

Absolutely delicious! I’m not a huge fan of sports bars, but the TVs weren’t noisy like I was expecting, and the food was absolutely stellar. I got the chicken sandwich with honey mustard, with broccoli instead of fries, and let me tell you it hit the spot.

Reserved some space for my husbands birthday party here a week ago, and let me tell you WOW! Everything was to a t. The service, the food, the drinks, the atmosphere. EVERYTHING. The host immediately greeted us with a smile and showed us to our tables. We were then approached by the best server we’ve ever had. Drew took excellent care of us from start to finish. Even after we paid our tab, she continued to check on our party and made sure we left completely satisfied. She had to most bubbly personality and was so friendly and personable. Needless to say, we will be spreading the word about how great this place is, and will definitely be returning! Great job guys!
