caffeinati
You made it to the drinkend and now its Saturday morning and you're feeling a little rough.
I've blogged about the places I love in Cincinnati but it turns out, south of the river you have some fantastic options for you espresso obsession. Whether you're in Covington or Newport there are now three new awesome places to go for your caffeine fix. And even better, all three are easy bike rides from downtown Cincinnati, or just a quick blast over in the car.
Left Bank Coffeehouse is the coziest spot of the three set in a residential neighborhood of Covington which I've taken to call the Brooklyn of Cincinnati. This is the place I'd end up to kill a few hours reading and sipping coffee or hot apple cider in the winter. They also happen to use locally roasted Deeper Roots Coffee beans, can't go wrong with that strategy.

The Brooklyn of Cincinnati? You're killing me, dude.
ReplyDeleteDon't hate the Cov! Love the Cov
ReplyDeleteNice! Love the Cov - and the coffee.
ReplyDeleteNot at all! Covington is great, but this Brooklyn-as-shorthand-for-hip business has got to stop.
ReplyDeleteAH, I see. That's not what I meant at all, Covington has old dense and really cool housing stock just across the river from the CBD. That is my take on it, not that its hipster, the fact that you could live in a urban neighborhood just across the river from a major city.
DeleteMore like the northern new jersey of Cincinnati, Newport is Hoboken and Covington is Jersey city.... ;)
DeleteBrooklyn is still part of NYC and in the same state. Northern New Jersey may be a more apt comparison, Newport = Hoboken and Covington = Jersey City - still a stretch...
DeleteInteresting bicycle parking idea.
ReplyDeleteDoes OTR work as a Bowery?
