Cobblestone OTR — Restaurant in Cincinnati

🎄 Krampus, the Grinch, and Mr. Scrooge Too 🎄

Oh Cobblestone, your decor was divine, A winter wonderland, sparkling and fine. Garlands and glitter, a festive display, But one bartender turned it all to dismay.

She crawled from her bed, her hair in a knot, Wrinkled and rumpled, her effort? A lot not. Her glare was so icy, her mood so askew, She channeled Krampus, with a hint of Scrooge too.

Her posture screamed, "I don’t want to be here," She spread zero joy, just misery and sneer. No jingle, no jolly, no holly, no cheer, Just Grinch-like vibes as we ordered our beer.

The drinks were decent, the crowd full of glee, But the bartender’s attitude? A catastrophe. Her eyes rolled with boredom, her service was slow, She’d rather we vanished than sit in her glow.

Cobblestone, you’ve got such a great theme, But your staff should be ready to fulfill the dream. They know it’s a pop-up, they signed on for cheer, Not to haunt us like spirits of Christmas fear.

I hated to leave feeling so blue, A holiday pop-up should thrill me, not rue. But thanks to your staff, it’s safe to conclude: You’re hosting Krampus, the Grinch, and old Scrooge.

Fun place to hang, don’t recommend reserving the back room. I reserved the back room via email for the first Bengals game, and my bf’s bday for 20 ppl. Had to put down a $350 deposit and agree to spend $600 to waive the outside food fee, cool. The day of, there was no one waiting on our party, let alone only one person working. Our party had to go up the bar every time, which isn’t a big deal, but wasn’t the expectation. Place wasn’t packed. We were on separate tabs which was agreed on, the bartender seemed a bit confused on our total bill. Before we left we were told we met the $600. The next day i am emailed and told we didn’t meet the $600 and that i’m only receiving $338, whatever. I was told the refund would take 5-7 business days. After 10 days i emailed, no response. 15 days, no response. A phone call, no response. Now today after 3 weeks of not receiving the refund, i was shortly told “we’re working with toast to see what’s going on, thanks.” Simply put im really unimpressed with the lack of communication, and the reservation all together. We could of just walked in and did exactly the same thing without having to deposit $350 and wait a...

I hosted my 30th birthday with 35-40 people in attendance. The price, the venue, the location, the staff, and the drinks were OUTSTANDING! I got so many compliments from my guests on the whole thing and honestly, I just showed up and provided snacks. The bar and the staff did all the work. The back room and patio are decorated beautifully and still have plenty of TVs and tables, a main throne for great photos and gift opening. This space would be perfect for any birthday party, bachelorette location, bridal shower, or other event you need. I worked closest with Sophie, the events coordinator and Francis, the Manager of the bar. They were great at communicating, easy to work with, and so much fun! I will most definitely be back and so will my friends. The venue gave me the ability to bring my vision to life and all for an incredibly reasonable price!

Thank you, Cobblestone!! You guys made my birthday the...
