Margaret-Ellen Jeffreys: an absolute must in Cincy. Try the savories, and you can't go wrong with a mixed box of the cookies and brownies. Read more.
Jason Day: Try the Opera Cream Torte. It's amazing.
Serious Eats: There are too many delicious things to snag at The Bonbonerie, but the Chocolate Salted Caramel Cupcake is the one to grab if you want some chocolate with pizazz.

Flea Market · Over-The Rhine · 12 tips and reviews
R B: More of craft fair than flea market. Nonetheless it is something fun to do. Great for a casual date or with the family.
Jane Friedman: Monthly Saturday flea market during the summers—meant to mimic Brooklyn tradition.
Liz Wharton: Nice set up, but not a flea market. Should be named "craft fair". Nice "Pinterest"-inspired crafters, and hipster style. Bonus of being in beautiful Washington Park in the shadow of Music Hall.
