Alex Bowman: cinnamon rolls are a must, then level up with a slice of the matcha loaf 🍵🍞
Matt Thomas: As the previous reviewer said, the cinnamon roll is a must. It has these slivers of orange on top that give it a unique sweetness. The Earl Grey loaf was great too. A little pricey but it's OTR.
Taylor E: The cinnamon roll, coffee cake, and salty chocolate chip cookies are great classics if you're new to Brown Bear. Beyond that, every single thing they make is delicious! Check Instagram for specials.

Chanda Glover: The spice cinnamon tea is almost TOO cinniamony. Also bring cash for small dollar purchases. There is limited seating. Atmosphere is nice. Free wifi.
Brad Turner: One of Cincy's best little coffee shops, with great java I'm told, and a fine selection of non-coffee beverages for those like me. Read more.
Dirk Kubala: Pet the cute bunny! He is very friendly.

thestrac87: Chicken & Waffles is the way to go. McWaffle as a backup. If you’re coming here, get a waffle.
Arlene: Very tasty beer. Blond was my favorite. And the mussels are very good too.
Eager Eater: Service OK (they wouldn’t let us order the ham & Brie sandwich because it’s “only on the lunch menu,” which apparently didn’t start for another hour, & they forgot to put vanilla in my vanilla latte.
Katie Uhl: White mocha,pumpkin spice muffins, a number 2, ice tea, and grateful grahams...one word. delicious!
Rose Gallant: Try the Cincinnati Mocha! Delightfully spicy sweet.
