CINCY BRUNCH AND STREETCAR FOOD TOUR

Enjoy the Best Brunch in Cincinnati + Ride the Streetcar to Findlay Market

Are you ready for a fun-filled Saturday morning adventure? Join us on our Cincy Brunch Tour to learn about the city and enjoy food at 6 different stops. We meet in beautiful Washington Park in the heart of historic Over the Rhine. This park is bordered by the magnificent Music Hall which has a haunted past. At our first stop, we share the rich history of the city with entertaining stories and old photos of the Queen City of the West.

Our first restaurant is a modern new diner, where we’ll enjoy a hearty dish of creamy scrambled eggs with Chihuahua cheese. We pass one of the biggest beer gardens in the area back in the day. We’ll talk about the history and the period of corrupt politics, beer, and vice in the city.

We head south on Vine Street to an award-winning donut shop for your choice of any of the 50 varieties of the best donuts in town. We’re in the heart of historic Over the Rhine. Look up at the architecture and feel the energy of the hustle and bustle of the people on the streets.

We walk east to explore more of Over the Rhine, pointing out the unique outdoor hand painted murals and shops and restaurants as we pass by.  Our restaurants vary from week to week, but always include a variety of restaurants and locally owned businesses in order to include a wide variety of sweet and savory dishes.

Next we hop the streetcar to Findlay Market, the oldest urban outdoor market in Ohio. We’ll dine in a new restaurant that is owned by one of the most popular chefs in town. We’ll take a tour of the Market, pointing out a few of our favorite vendors and enjoying two more food tastings.  If you cannot eat one more bite, no worries, we can take them to go.  If you choose to stay and explore the Market, we don’t blame you.  It’s a bustling place on Saturday afternoons.

We will be happy to return you to Washington Park or if you wish to stay and shop, we’ll point you in the right direction. Either way, your local guide will be happy to share additional tips or answer any questions, so you can carry on with confidence!

Please Note: This is a brunch tour and features dishes made with a variety of foods. Some tastings may include eggs, pork, and onions. If you prefer not to eat meat, there is a vegetarian option. If you have allergies to eggs or onions, please contact me so we can find a better tour for you.
