FC Bayern Takeover at The Pitch Cincy = Epic! The FC Bayern München takeover at The Pitch Cincy was absolutely unforgettable. The beer was ice cold and top-notch, the service was quick and friendly, and the entire atmosphere had that perfect mix of energy and authenticity that made you feel like you were in a German beer hall cheering on your club. From the décor to the chants, every detail was on point. Massive props to the staff—they kept the drinks flowing and the vibes high all night. If you're a soccer fan in Cincinnati and weren’t at The Pitch, you seriously missed out. Can’t wait for the next event—this place gets it. Prost! 🍻⚽️🇩🇪 #MiaSanMia #ThePitchCincy

We had a UC graduation party for my son at the Pitch Cincy! Everything turned out fantastic! Sophie did an amazing job helping plan for the event along with coordinating food and music and whatever else we needed. We had a private party on the second floor and it was the perfect space for our party! The food was excellent along with the service. We loved the sports atmosphere. The bartenders were nice and friendly and attentive! I highly recommend the Pitch Cincy for any event!

Great locally owned joint just across from FCC's stompin' ground at TQL Stadium 🏟!! I've been there on a Thursday where it's just a few of us watching friends play in their own mini soccer league ⚽️ & I've also been in the additional area behind the bar for an engagement party. Pics are posted from the surprise engagement party & a few pics of TQL Stadium during an evening lit up. The event space is a perfect small to mid sized space to host events with friends & family. You can bring in your own food from outside & you can purchase a roll of drink tickets for your event. We had a blast!! 🎟 Great job, bartender crew!!🍻 🍻 The Pitch+live FCC ⚽️+TQL 🏟 A GREAT PLACE TO WATCH AN FCC MATCH! 🎶 FCC🧡💙 FCC🧡💙 FCC 🎶

We had our wedding after party in the second floor area and rented out the soccer field as well. Sophie was awesome to work with from start to finish – and the entire team busted tail to help make sure that everyone had a great time across the board. Thanks so much!

Excellent place to pre-game, and the Bayern faithful took over the bar. The staff was excellent and very efficient. Great experience!

I’ve rented out both The Pitch & Cobblestone for private venues and it was hands down the best experience I’ve had paying for a private event. Management & Staff are great to work with and are also very quick to reply to any request. Both venues, drinks and food are all great. Highly recommend

What an amazing venue to book for an event. From something corporate to something fun. The venue rents out the second floor and the rooftop deck. We were able to decorate and bring in live music. Great atmosphere and the staff were super professional and accommodating. Definitely consider them for your next event. Thank you Pitch Cincy!

Stopped in here yesterday before the Kenny Chesney concert for a quick drink. Super fun atmosphere! The speed bars were probably the fastest service I've seen for beer/seltzers anywhere. Have to just say that I wish more places would put this type of service in. Splitting beer and liquor (for the most part) is just smart business. All of the staff were working their tails off despite the heat and large crowd. Would love to come back here when the crowd isn't as big and truly have the opportunity to enjoy the space.

The Pitch is located next to TQL Stadium and the perfect spot to grab a drink before a FC Cincinnati game. The Pitch is a sports bar themed around soccer with a rooftop bar and it's very own miniature field where you can play 3v3. They offer your traditional sports bar foods such as burgers, fries, waffle fries, and veggies burgers and even a breakfast platter (pancake, scrambled eggs, and bacon). They also offer rotating food trucks as well. The Pitch also has numerous tvs that play all kinds of sports with special emphasis on soccer and Cincinnati sports. The bar is pretty laid back and decorated with Cincy and soccer themed items. There are multiple bars on each level which makes getting a drink super quick and easy. The staff are always kind and happy to help.

Super close to tql (across the street). Lots of taps, servers and places to stand and sit. Food truck options but hope someday a dedicated kitchen could be an addition to make it truly a destination. Look forward to checking it out sometime not on a game day.

Great to finally have a sports bar in OTR and right across from the new FCC stadium on Central Parkway. Today was their first/soft opening day for the public, the staff was very friendly as they were shaking everything down - like how to work the huge amount of streaming tv's they have! Good beer selection - craft, domestic and international and good prices. The Asian food truck was very good too! We'll be back for lots of FCC and other games!

We came here for St Pattys March Madness. My college team was playing and upon arrival we asked if that game would stay on. They assured me it could be worked out, so we posted up and ordered some green beer. I was surprised at how big the spot was. There is an outside patio, and inside "patio" style room, the main bar area, and an upstairs. There were tons of TVs and the ones over the bar were gigantic. Sadly, at the start of the game the TVs kept glitching every 3 seconds. It was so bad we considered leaving but it finally got resolved. When it finally got resolved they took that game off the TV. We inquired again about it being on and the put it on another TV. Then with 4 mins left in a very close game, they took it off again and I almost missed the end of the game. Very frustrating. When I went to get another beer they said they had accidentally closed out my tab and at that point I just gave up. The bartenders seemed ok, but perhaps shorthanded. The tables were sticky and not super clean, ugh. One of them told me they arent normally open on Thurs night, so Id like to give them another chance in the future. It seemed like it could be a cool place. Maybe it was an off night.

Great event bar right across the street from the stadium. Excellent local and micro brew offerings on tap and great service at the bar. They often bring in food trucks for satisfy your hunger, otherwise there's not much nearby to munch on. Upstairs bar and patio so when the weather is nice, it's great to hang on the patio. Great bar with good people, just don't go there looking for food.

Picture it...2021....in the middle of a pandemic. Vaccinations have been out a few months. A friend was coming in town for the day and another friend suggests we try out a new bar. It was a quick walk for us. As someone who isn't into soccer, I found out as we were walking that it's FC opening day at the new stadium. Walk up to The Pitch and we're told masks aren't required if you're vaxed. It's cool, they had the doors and windows open. I was highly annoyed they invited 2 Mac n cheese food trucks (hey diversity) but we headed upstairs to eat and people watch. One hour later the place was packed. Everyone headed to the patio to watch the parade from Washington Park. It was a lot for me and I had a panic attack so we left once the streets cleared out a bit. This is actually a pretty cool sports bar that's set up well for crowds, I just wasn't ready.

I like the layout of this place. It's almost like two places in one. I love the outdoor patio. It was so chill. I can imagine it being crazy during FC Cincinnati games but I went on an off day. The vibes were high. The census was low and the music was fantastic! Not sure what my it's like when it's poppin' but I really liked the low key vibe. I can see parking being problem but it was easy when I went. Not so humbly submitted, Michael C.

The food truck situation is awful. Waited over 30 minutes for cold, undercooked burgers that were accompanied with super salty and cold fries. A huge waste of money. The bar service is great but the food truck is awful.

AVOID THE FOOD TRUCK! We ordered 2 Burrow Burgers & fries. Food took over 30 minutes & once received, fries were cold & burgers were not fully cooked (and we asked for well-done). We advised cook that burgers were not done, his response was "they're 110°." Everyone knows it's done at 165°. The Pitch needs better food truck options. #ThatsAll

Was on the 2nd floor and roof deck for a private event. It's right across from TQL Stadium and very spacious. Attentive bartenders. Plenty of TV real-estate to watch sports (if that's your thing). It's a great option if you don't want to venture too far from Central Parkway.

Great spot to watch a game. Watched some of the World Cup games here yesterday. Great atmosphere and friendly service.

Restroom Reviews R.

Yelp
The first floor men's restroom was occupied so I was directed by a series of 3 signs to the restroom in the basement. This was a classic journey down a long hallway in the basement bathroom, which is always an interesting time. Right away I was impressed by how the green accented floors and the green ceiling and walls really made me feel like I was in an extension of the bar. The restroom itself was stocked with a urinal and two stalls, one of which being a larger handicap stall. The bathroom came well stocked with all the fixins. I'm nitpicking here but the only knock is that they didn't offer paper towels, only a Nova air powered hand dryer. I always like to have the option of using paper towels to dry my hands. All around this was a great restroom experience. I would venture to call it a pooper's paradise. The most impressive thing about my time at clutch was the service. The bartender Joel was working solo. He made a couple great shots and was able to keep the bathroom stocked and clean during a busy couple hours of service. Last thing, the food truck "The Alley" was amazing. Their impossible slider made me question if it was actually beef or not, and the fries were my favorite style "thunder crispy". I would eat here every day.

Plenty of room inside and out, good beer selection, directly across from TQL Stadium. Food trucks great touch. Parking is street for now. That will improve with time but one street over from street car stops and parking on elm & 14th or elm and liberty ether way a 1 block walk. Well played Pitch well played!

The perfect sports bar to hang out with your friends. Not many other spots in OTR that offer big TVs to make watching your game easy. I've been here for Reds Bengals and FCC watch parties. Great deals on drinks and the beer is cold. On non FCC game days there is a ton of street parking that you can find. This place is also great for small and large parties. We just hosted our fantasy football draft about 12-15 people and they were excellent in accommodating us. The service staff definitely cares about the customers.

I live just around the corner from this fresh new bar, and it's pretty sweet! Tons of TVs and multiple levels of bar with an outdoor overlook with a perfect view of the stadium where I got to see an awesome view of the first FC "March" come into the West End stadium for the first time. It was awesome! They have a dynamite beer selection and they show love to all sports, plus a very cool memorabilia section on the wall by the downstairs bar with some sweet Cincy throwbacks for style points. Go check this place out!

Loved my first visit here! Fun place and loaded with TVs to watch the games and matches. Great atmosphere. The only food is from food trucks parked out back, though.

doesn't have a phone number. spent 10 minutes trying to find one before I realized they can only be contacted through Twitter or Facebook. They claim it's because of robo calls but I've never seen this at other restaurant. I didn't haven't Facebook until recently so I got lucky. If you don't have Facebook or Twitter you're out of luck. Also if you wanna ask a few simple questions without texting good luck.
