Incline Public House

Great food, amazing views, fast and friendly service. The cheese steak sandwich was delicious and the fries were great. They do have some options that are easy to make vegetarian/vegan. Crazy cool views, and the outdoor seating area is heated/available in winter. The only complaint we had was the playlist - very loud Target shopping type tunes (2010s top40, Rihanna, Carly Rae Jepson, Lady Gaga). It was kind of weird and didn't really fit the vibe but wasn't a big deal at all. We will definetely come back again when we are in town.

Great place with an event greater view! Had great service on a busy Wednesday evening when I arrive with a very important client I'll be working with and reporting to, had a great time with delicious food. Parking was pretty rough to find but eventually found a spot. This is my first visit and can't wait to explore more of this amazing city and this amazing restaurant! Be ready to take pictures of the view like I did!!📸

They've got a decent variety of food on the menu. I'd definitely go back to try other items. The bathroom has two stalls; one handicapped and a regular stall. It was clean at a busy hour!

10/10 Recommend! My family and I loved everything about this place. The views, the food, and the service were awesome! The Short Rib Poutine was good, but the Grippos-Crusted Mac & Cheese Bites stole the show! We will order more of these next time! We also ordered the Caprese, Garbage, and Deluxe Spicy Italian Pizzas. All very good, but I think Garbage won my vote as the best of the 3 (it was close). We will definitely be back to try more of these menu items!

Had a great late lunch at incline public house! We had Emma as our server and she was great. We both had the cheesesteak and it was delicious. The only advice I would have is that some sauce or mayo on it would make it even taste better. The brussels sprouts were very good as well as the Grippo’s mac & cheese. Highly recommend eating here as the view is great and the food is good!

One of my favorite spots which was even better with Brendan as our server! He was incredibly attentive and made sure we had a great experience!Such a perfect view of the river and Cincinnati with a perfect outside option which I highly recommend! The patio has good shade and a great breeze! We love this place and the people here ! Will definitely be back ♥️

A great place to eat when the weather is nice and you want to eat outside with a view! Their menu is unique and has some great food choices. The restaurant is a bit small and the wait time can build quickly. My favorite was their fried grippos Mac n cheese ball appetizer! I’m always a fan of their pizzas too. My husband liked his brisket burger.

Best Philly cheesesteak I’ve had in my life. The sweet potato waffle fries with applesauce to dip them in was out of this world. We stopped here on our way back to Illinois from Tennessee, it is right off the highway. Ironically, we stopped here for lunch while the Bears were playing the bengals at the bengals stadium across from the restaurant lol! so we got to hang with some bengals fans (We didn’t tell them where we were from😉). We’ve never been to Ohio, so we got to take in the awesome views of the city of Cincinnati while we were here for a meal, it was perfect. I think our server’s name was Elise and she was fantastic! Definitely would be back if we are in Cincinnati again! Only a 10 minute wait on a Sunday afternoon during a big game!

We've been going to the Incline for years, and it's always incredible. The staff are super friendly, the inside is cozy and fun, and the view never gets old. The food? Always on point. I almost always go for the Short Rib Grilled Cheese because it's unbeatable, but honestly, I've never had anything I didn't like. I usually start with the Elberon Salad (definitely ask for extra dressing). The Pretzel & Pub Cheese and the Short Rib Poutine are both killer apps. We usually grab a pizza for the table and at least one side since they're big enough to share -- the Grippos-Crusted Mac & Cheese is a must. The Incline always hits. Great food, great people, great vibes. We'll keep coming back again and again.

My husband and I flew into Cincinnati airport and had to drive about an hour and half north. This restaurant showed up on the way and I saw it had nice views so we decided to give it a go. From looking at the menu, I was doubtful the food would be great as it looked like just another burger and pizza place. I even told my husband "we are going for the views not the food". Man was I wrong! Food is delicious! My husband ordered a burger and I got a pizza with gluten free crust and both dishes were excellent. Gluten free can be hit or miss but this restaurant nailed it! The view of course is stunning and we were lucky enough to be there during sunset. The service is attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend this place and have told our friends who live in the area they must go!

I've been here before and I think I gave them four stars originally. It was the food that was a bit off but at the time the view was great and the service was fine. This time was a bit different. We were able to be seated inside right away but there was a long wait for outside. It was very nice day and it was a weekday but the lunch crowd was very much there. Service was friendly and quick for the most part. Our waiter Lucas was attentive and helpful. Unfortunately the food again was just a bit of a miss. I don't know what's going on in the dining room but some things are just a bit off and flavorless. Not sure though. Maybe it's just one of those places where you are paying for the view? Not sure. But I'm not really motivated to come back unless some of the food improves.

Did t eat, so no review for food. Bartender made my bloody just as I requested. Place was packed, Of course there's a beautiful view with about 8 foursome tables and 3 tables for larger groups.. also inside seating.

First time here. Easy drive from Covington hotel. Put our name in for outside seating and grabbed drinks at the bar and seats outside. Didn't wait long - even for a Saturday night. Matt was on us pretty quickly with a check on our drinks and to get us water. Just enjoyed the view for a while. Two small salads and split a bacon ranch pizza. All was delicious. Thanks Matt for a great dinner!

The food is good! I wish it was a bigger place. Parking is hit or miss. The views are spectacular. Pro tip: go on a Friday night that the Red's are playing and you'll get a free fireworks show too.

Food is ALWAYS good. I get something different each time I go and I'm never disappointed. Staff is always very accommodating as well. We were seated outside and the bees would not leave us alone. They let us move inside with no problem. View from the patio is still unmatched!

We were visiting family and arriving around dinner time so they thought they'd bring us here. It's a place they enjoy and I can see why. Parking may be a bit of a hassle but this place was really hopping. Although busy it didn't take too long to get a nice seat outside. Service was friendly and prompt. Good beer selection but I wish I had been hungrier. A lot of the food looked really good but I didn't want to waste food so went with the poutine (which was tasty). Everyone was really satisfied. We had a birthday among us and she has wanted to try the chocolate cake so I bought a slice to go. It was absolutely massive and so rich and delicious. This would definitely be a good place to stop in for a pint and a bite.

My sister and our 2 friends stopped in here for lunch on Monday as a nice halfway point on our route back from our girls trip. A couple of us ordered beers, but I ordered a hot tea because I currently have a sore throat. All hit the spot! Lunch came out quick and was tasty- all of us had different variations of avocado/guacamole with our meal, so there was an unspoken theme lol We sat on the covered patio and had a great view of the river. It was a little gloomy since it is February, but still great to lift our winter spirits. I'm sure it's gorgeous during the warmer months. I would definitely stop back in here again during a Cincy trip and try another item off the menu. Hopefully I won't be feeling sick then and can try a beer or cocktail!

We arrived at 1:30 pm on a Friday. It was more active than I expected. We joined the waiting list and were seated outside within 5 minutes. Our table of three placed our drinks and food. The food arrived within 10 minutes. However, the drinks did not come out for at least 30 minutes. Our server said that there were delays at the bar, and we did our best to be understanding. Unfortunately, one member of our party ended up having to leave before the drinks arrived. A little after 2 pm, the drinks came out, and they were tasty. We did not order any additional drinks due to fear of more delays. Beautiful spot, but they need faster hands.

Service is great. Food was amazing. View was really nice, and the playlist was perfect.

The view of the city is stunning. The service and staff are exceptionally friendly. Food is phenomenal.

Very nice view to complement the food! Got in fairly quickly on a Saturday afternoon. Had the cheesesteak sandwich but there were other options the groups commented on that were good. Definitely worth going back if in the area

This place was nice. If it hadnt been hot we wouldve sat outside and enjoyed the view. The view is awesome! The staff were personable and earned their tip! :-)) The food was good: lamb sliders (couldve used more seasoning) and fries; lobster tacos were loved by my sister. We each had a bluberry cider which was very good. Dont know when we will be back, but keeping this place on our list of restaurants to revisit. We want to enjoy the outside patio next time.

Great food and service, didn't have time to wait for an outside table since we were traveling home but still great view and vibe!

Went to Incline Public House for dinner and had such a great time! The food was yummy -- the tomatoes were a little rough looking, but our server was so nice and even brought me a whole bowl, haha. The views of the city made the experience even better!

Sweet views. Great food. We have fish & chip And lobster tacos. All great! It was a great stop before the Reds game. A short trip to the stadium.

Food was great! Margaritas were top notch! If the food wasn't good which it was great the view is worth the trip! Service was great too!

Warning: you will be waiting a while for a table. I took my mother who is from out of town to Incline Public House mainly for the view of Cincinnati. The view is nice, but the restaurant has limited parking and is always quite busy. While waiting for our table, we were able to wait at the bar, but the wait time extended by about 20-30 minutes past the estimated time given to us when we first got there. The food wasn't great for what we got. I got the chicken chili that was very plain while others got the cheesesteak and pizza were both were "ehh" according to those who ate it. Overall not a good experience enough to come at all.

Wished I could have reviewed. Were in area and attempted to visit. Parking is challenging. Nearby pay lot was "full" according to sign, but there were spots available. The area is densely residential and there was little in street parking as all homes in area utilize in street parking. We circled three times and gave up. Strike 2 was a trip to Montgomery Inn where the wait was 1.5 hours. We moved on. Sorry to have missed both.

Quick stop at the bar for a drink and soup. Lobster Bisque today. Killer. Had the Maine Brewing Linch American IPA. Very good as well. Musta been a slow sports day.... Polo on the tv. I'm rooting for La Dolfina.

Working downtown Cincinnati, it was a quick 8min drive to the Incline Public House for lunch. Easily doable with an hour. It was a beautiful day and we opted to eat outdoors on the patio. Our server Roman was excellent, super attentive. The food was great, refreshing on a hot day. The only drawback is that this was lunch and a beer would have been great! Will be back for happy hour and city views from this fantastic location.

Ambiance and service was great! Food, not so much... pretzel and cheese was not good. Cheese is served cold and shredded? Mahi Mahi Tacos were mushy and tasted a bit fishy. Pizza wasn't bad, just run-of-the-mill. A dinner for three ran about $140 with drinks. Come for the views and drinks, but not for dinner!

Third visit here as our son goes to UC. Service was great. Pretzel is always our favorite starter. I was disappointed in the Beet salad so sent it back. It was missing some ingredients anyway. Mother got fish and chips and loved it. Adult kids got chicken clubs and said they were very good although one didn't like sauce on it. Sat on the patio overlooking the city. Gorgeous area! Highly recommended!

You can't beat the view. The food is good and the staff is always friendly. I love that. They finally winterized their outdoor patio so you can use it year-round. I would like to see them implement, fun events, there, wine, tastings, trivia nights, etc..

Went to Incline Public House for the first time for my birthday. First note is that the view of the Cincy skyline is gorgeous. Definitely choose to eat outside if it is available. We saw a blood moon over the city and it was the coolest place to be to experience it. The service was pretty good! Our server was attentive and always made sure that my table was taken care of. The food was delicious! I had a burger which was a very solid choice. The apps were the best part of the meal. The zippo Mac and Cheese bites were surprisingly delicious. And the lobster ceviche was immaculate. My friends and I had an amazing time and definitely made my birthday night wonderful

Such a great view of Cincinnati skyline from Ohio's west side! Both indoor and outdoor seating (even during winter as the patio is somewhat winterized) are available. Pub food with sandwiches, pizzas, etc. are available! Pictured is the poutine with cheese curds, and an egg added! Quite tasty! Service was responsive and helpful!

Parking was limited and we lucked into a spot. We were told it would be a 45 minute wait. About 20 mins later we had a patio table with an incredible view!! Then we got great service and great food. My friend loved her pizza. I had a short rib grilled cheese. Oh My God, yes I had to spell it out. Did I mention delicious cocktails, too?

The salad I had was nice. No complaints there the waitress was adequate no complaints there but somebody did add another dollar onto my tip that I had put on there through my credit card. I tipped 20% for a salad. I don't need somebody changing the amount. Little small thefts like that lead to big ones

Nice place to stop in for drinks or food if not both. Great views of Cincinnati. Outdoor seating and indoor seating. Nice and clean. Staff were professional. The food was good. I had a hamburger and sweet potato fries. I also had chocolate cake for dessert, it was very delicious but for two, it was huge. Worth checking out, I highly recommend. Enjoy!

They really took advantage of the view over Cincinnati. The pizza game me my pizza fix. Both drinks were delicious and strong.

This place has the best view in Cincinnati. We were lucky enough to sit right by the window. The food was delicious and very unique. My hubby got the enormous pretzel. It was so big. I got the beet salad with red and golden beets. So good and the brussel sprouts amazing. It was a great lunch date

Obviously, the main reason you go to the Incline Public House is that fabulous view of Cincinnati, but their food and service are on point as well! Inside is fine, but you want to try to eat outside, if possible. They have a covered patio to save you from the blazing sun in the summer, but the patio also has built in heaters to keep you toasty in the colder months. We started with cocktails. When the server brought them to our table, he said they had just changed to their fall cocktail menu and he wanted to make sure they came out ok, which I thought was nice. We then each got a sandwich, which would have been plenty, but the grippos-crusted mac & cheese was calling out my name, so we split that as well. Needless to say, we had a lot of leftovers to take home for later. :-)

Cool view. Decent food. Try the mac and cheese cubes and prosciutto pizza. Pasta might be a bit salty, though.

This was my 1st time dining here and I absolutely love the location. It's a beautiful place to get good food & drinks. A laidback place to hang with friends/family or a chill date. I can't wait to come bcK when the weather is nice so I can sit outside. The service was amazing! We sat at the bar and Airy (I hope that's how you spell her name) was so nice! She suggested her favorites and checked on us throughout the night. The food was delicious, it was a relaxing and enjoyable dinner date. *Fish & chips were really good! The cod was lightly breaded & fresh. The tartar sauce was so good. I usually don't eat tartar but this went perfect with the cod. The coleslaw was just ok and they gave me a lot of fries which were seasoned and fried perfectly Tip: get the fish fried hard, also even better the next day in air fryer 9/10 * Pretzel was so good! I didn't need the mustard, wasn't a fan of the cheese stuff but the pretzel was amazing on its own. It was freshly baked, buttery and the best hot pretzel I've had. This would have been amazing with a jalapeño cheddar dipping sauce. But it was still delicious w/o anything 10/10 *Cheesesteak & Fries were good. Hands down better than Penn Station. Wasn't too greasy and was a perfect sub. The fries were seasoned and delicious. Wish the steak was cut a little more but it was seasoned perfectly and the bell peppers were delicious. My bf ate the entire thing, 9/10

I spent a very relaxing morning at the Incline Public House. I was able to enjoy my breakfast tea over looking Cincinnati's cityscape. I ordered the chicken and waffles and the chicken was perfectly tender which complemented well with the savory waffles. The entire staff was very welcoming and attentive to our table. Perfect location for when you have guests visiting Cincinnati.

Great place for food and drinks. My friend and I have been here twice now for both. We had pizza the first time and this time we had spicy pickles, Parmesan tots, burger and chicken linguine. All was fabulous, especially the pickles! Those are good. The burger has A great flavor too.

Service was delayed I am a senior citizen and previous server in my youth. What really gets me is the lack of kindness and caring that's seemed lost in this establishment. Yes, nice view but never did I hear I'm sorry when due to an emergency at another table our order was delayed and not sent prepared by 20 minutes. That being said it appeared every other table received food and service without delay. Once our food finally came there was a problem with one of the order's. Forget having your server check to confirm if your order is OK here. I asked an employee for help and waited only with no response (I don't even think the employee I asked for help did anything after I my request) to get up and find the manager to get their poor example of a grilled cheese sandwich that wasn't even melted replaced by a real grilled cheese as described on the menu. I wish I would have taken a picture of it,...it was the worst example of a grilled cheese sandwich I have ever seen. The manager who had a chance at that point to help never seemed concerned about the sandwich and he did take it back but never apologized for expecting someone to even pay for that. Once our food finally did come the server was nowhere to be found so I had to get up and search for someone to get the condiment's that should have been delivered with the food. NEVER did anyone apologize for this regrettable experience. How can food taste good when you have to wait forever, can't get help very quick. By the time I received the condiments my food was cold. UG!!! And nobody ever asked me after I if everything was OK. CUSTOMERS BEWARE OF POOR SERVICE AND LACK OF EMPTHTY FROM MANAGEMENT AND WAIT STAFF. I will make it a point to share just how sad it is today that a restaurant with a fine view offers such SUB PAR SERVICES and LACK OF RESPECT FOR SENIORS. BTY: There is a very nice, clean, happy Mexican restaurant just down the street that offers great service and food I have been going there for years. Vera Cruz Mexican restaurant. Try it, the people there treat you right and the food is really good. If your a senior watch out for this place. They don't really act like they give two cents.

Late lunch on a Tuesday. Wife had fish and chips, she says 4 stars. Daughter got a chicken sandwich with fries, she reports 4 stars. I had a house salad with grilled chicken. My food was very good, nothing outstanding but not sure how great a salad can be.

How beautiful!!!!! The view: Oh word when you sit on the patio you feel like you are on top of the world. It is absolutely stunning!!!!! I took my hubby out for our anniversary and he had a blast. The service and food were exceptional. I ordered Mahi Mahi tacos- soo good.

Food and drinks were great. Service and views were great and very enjoyable experience!

The food was off on Saturday 5/10/25. I ordered my burger medium. It was well done, dry and cold as was the sweet potato waffle fries. Others at our table also received cold food. Normally a great place to grab something to eat with fabulous views of the city. So disappointed.

This restaurant has a beautiful view of the city with a very laid back energy. The staff is always welcoming and attentive!

Views on the patio are amazing! The prosciutto fig pizza was unbelievably amazing! The mahi mahi blackened fish tacos were ok but I have had better elsewhere. I had the blackberry mule as well, and that was pretty dang good and quite strong! I think we would come here again for the views and the pizza!

The wait was 45 minutes and we waited inside the heated patio. The view was gorgeous from inside and outside. The food was a little pricey. We shared a pizza and it was subpar to what the hype by our server let on. The view was definitely the best part of the whole experience. Restrooms were clean and well stocked. Our service was friendly and gave us several suggestions on things to do in the area as we were visiting from out of town.

If you are in Cincinnati this is a must eat at. Our experience was wonderful. Our waitress Paige was supper attentive and quick with the drink refills. She was also able to answer all of our questions. There were 7 of us and we all liked what we ordered. The ambiance was great; it wasn't too loud and we could all visit well. The view was breathtaking. I had the Shotgun Wedding beer and it was delicious. My sister had the Zombie Dust and she really enjoyed it.

Nice place to eat looking out over the city. We sat on the patio. Food was good and prices were somewhat reasonable. I would definitely eat here again.

Wonderful waitress. Grace, I think? Made two recent visits to sit outside and enjoy the best view in Cincinnati. Fantastic salads. Would return, for sure. It's just a little outside the bustling central business district and a quick jaunt from downtown Cincy.

Incline Public House is definitely a place to go mainly for the view. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday right around 11 and it filled up inside pretty quickly. Our server was very nice and our food came out fast. I ordered a raspberry mimosa to drink which was fine. We also started with the pretzel and pub cheese. The pretzel is HUGE so great for sharing. It was what you would expect, the pub cheese was just okay. I went with the spicy chicken and waffles. The chicken as pretty good, the waffle itself just average. My partner ordered a cheese pizza which wasn't very good. The bottom was black - totally burnt which was a bummer. Overall I see the appeal of the location. The food is just okay, but will fill you up if you just need something basic to eat.
