February 9, 20196 yr Sundry & Vice co-founder opening retro-style bar in OTR The co-founder of Sundry & Vice, recently named one of the world's best bars, and the woman behind the 21c Museum Hotel's monthly cocktail class are teaming up to bring a new retro bar to Over-the-Rhine. Julia Petiprin and Catherine Manabat are opening a yet-unnamed bar at 35 E. 13th St. on the ground floor of the Cincinnati Center City Development Corp.'s (3CDC) Stafford project. The goal is to be open by the late spring or early summer. Petiprin came to Cincinnati from Los Angeles in 2015 to open Sundry & Vice, where she met Manabat, who worked for Columbus distillery Watershed Distilling. "I was originally only supposed to be here for a year, but I fell in love with Cincinnati," Petiprin told me. "When I moved here from L.A., I didn’t know anybody, but opening Sundry & Vice the community embraced us and me and it feels like everyone is so excited about their city and making it great. I love to be a part of that."

Ripple Wine Bar is coming to 4 W. Pike St. in Covington. Husband and wife Matt and Kathleen Haws hope to open it before St. Patrick's Day.

March 19, 20196 yr OTR's Sundry and Vice owner turns to Walnut Hills for next bar The owner of Over-the-Rhine's Sundry and Vice, named one of the world's best bars, is opening a new concept in Walnut Hills. Owner Stuart King and general manager Jack Keane are planning to open the Comfort Station at 793 E. McMillan St. early this summer. "The revitalization of Walnut Hills has been on our radar for some time and, as with Sundry and Vice, we are drawn to up-and-coming neighborhoods," King told me in an email. "We were touched by the amount of involvement and passion of the residents and stakeholders in Walnut Hills and how much they wanted to revitalize it and see it come to life again." The concept will house two distinct spaces. The name itself draws from the 100-year-old building that houses it, known as a "Public Comfort Station" that provided a rest area and bathing house along a busy transit line and retail corridor.

He assured me it was all the rage in Detroit, and we were missing out big time by not having a fowling bar. I'm sure he's thrilled by this announcement. ?

May 2, 20196 yr Jacob Trevino turns to his heritage for upcoming Findlay Market bar Hot off of opening its first steakhouse, the group that brought Cincinnati bars like Overlook Lodge, Video Archive and Tokyo Kitty is turning to the golden age of Mexican cinema as inspiration for its newest bar concept. Gorilla Cinema is opening La Ofrenda at 30 Findlay St., a block from Cincinnati's historic Findlay Market. It's expected to debut in late summer 2019. "The first three bars were my exploration of pop culture, my next will be an exploration of where I came from and my family. They're very personal," Gorilla Cinema founder Jacob Trevino told me. La Ofrenda is Spanish for "The Offering." An ofrenda is frequently associated with the Mexican Day of the Dead: families will build an offering to their relatives and ancestors who have died.

November 13, 20195 yr Molly Wellmann has completely redone Japp's; take a look inside Cincinnati bar maven Molly Wellmann took over her flagship bar, Japp's since 1879, last summer, and over the past few months she has completely overhauled the interior to more reflect her personality. Now, that's fully on display. Japp's, at 1136 Main St., is nearly unrecognizable from what it was for years, since the former Wellmann's Brands took over in 2011. Gone are the pale greens and browns, and the pergola that dominated the entire entryway adjacent to the bar has been removed and replaced with a custom banquette. The old hair paraphernalia is gone from the streetside windows, which have been cleared out and now look in on the bar.
