Description: The heritage of Cincinnati's storied brewing history comes alive along the banks of the Ohio River at this world-class restaurant and brewery. Prominently situated in the dynamic Smale Riverfront Park, the Moerlein Lager House offers a guest experience unlike any other—a working microbrewery producing a full line of Moerlein craft brews, and delectable fare featuring grain spent breads, hand-carved sandwiches, and smoked rotisserie meats… foods reminiscent of those served in the city’s celebrated 19th century beer gardens.

“Tasty!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

Loved the rotisserie BBQ chicken with melted cheddar mashed potatoes! The appetizers were excellent as well-- spicy mac n cheese, hot pretzel bread with cheese, and spicy buffalo wings. All were worth ordering! The atmosphere is nice here, and it's right by the stadium and riverfront. Definitely worth eating here if you're in Cincinnati!

“Always a good bet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

We have been here numerous times and we are never disappointed. The beer choices are great. The bartenders are very good. The food is consistently good and so is the service. This is a must stop before or after a game.

“After the game, Grab a Beer Here....”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

While on a recent trip to Cinncy for the Giants-Bengals game my friends and I stopped for a bite to eat at this shinny, new, well located reasturant on the Ohio River just a short walk from Paul Brown Stadium. From the moment you walk in the door there was something about this place that just made you feel like you didn't want to leave....From the Sweet Potato chips to the Braised Short Rib Grill cheese, the whole menu was full of unexpected entrees....Then you combine the amazing food with one of the in-house craft beers and the meal is near complete. From light to dark, Ale to Lager theres a beer for all.Don't forget to top it off with a Guiness Cheescake for desert.....

“Excellent food and service!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 16, 2012

We had a group of 10 visit Moerlein Lager House last week for lunch. It would have been fun to have been there at night since the restaurant overlooks the Ohio River and the view is amazing. The food was great, from the short rib grilled cheese sandwich to the fish tacos. And the onion rings were the best I have ever had. Service was outstanding -- quick and efficient even over a busy lunch hour. Highly recommend!

The only negative is with the acoustics there it is noisy. Other than that, wonderful place to go.

“Beautiful restaurant on the river.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 11, 2012 via mobile

Next to the stadium and ballpark. Great place to grab a freshly brewed beer or a bite to eat before the game. We got flatbread but two people could easily share one. The pretzel.bread is to die for. Order a beer flight and taste four of their most.popular beers.
