“a unique & romantic bar”

The Blind Lemon opened May 21, 1963. Then Cincinnati Reds Manager Fred Hutchinson and Cincinnati Mayor Walton H. Bachrach were in attendance. Through the years many famous guests have stopped in to visit. Autographed pictures from entertainers such as the Smothers Brothers, and Crosby, Stills and Nash plaster the walls, alongside gold and platinum records from the likes of Michael Jackson and Anne Murray. Hundreds of antique and toy cars, trucks, airplanes, pocket watches and other assorted collectibles have been added over the years. Please stop up on the hill and have a drink with us and take in the atmosphere of Cincinnati's most unique and romantic bar.
