The world of style blogs and sports rarely combine, but
today the girls of Thread Cincinnati
are coming together to talk all things Cincinnati for the upcoming 2015 MLB All-Star
Game. Seeing as the sports spotlight will be shining on our dear Queen City,
we’ve put together a neighborhood guide so you can get to know Cincinnati a bit better. If you’re coming to
Cincinnati to enjoy the festivities (or maybe you’re just interested in Cincinnati…)
be sure to click through to read all of our posts.
While the All-Star game is taking place Downtown (about 10
minutes from my apartment), I’m talking about my neighborhood – Hyde Park.
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while you’ve seen snips of Hyde Park in
photos and on Instagram. But today my neighborhood is front and center. So let’s
get to it shall we?
Food
If old fashion diners are your style be sure to check out The Echo! Just don't try going there for dinner, it closes after lunch.
Speaking of old fashion, Patty’s Old Fashion Popcorn is most certainly worth a visit. When in Ohio, you have to try the Buckeye Popcorn.

But maybe you’re a sports fan and like a place with as many
TVs as beer choices. If that’s you -- stop by Cock &Bull Public House. And try a Cincinnati beer {I recommend Mad Tree's season brew Sol Drifter} while you're at it.
If you enjoy a more traditional restaurant atmosphere, check out Teller’s of Hyde Park. Try grabbing a table in the bank vault. But if you’re like me and love Mac
and Cheese, Keystone is the spot.
And your tour of Cincinnati wouldn’t be complete without a
stop at Graeter’s. It’s world famous –
just ask Oprah or JT.
Drinks
Between the vast selection of bottled beer, Dutch’s Bar &Bottle Shop also
has rotating tap of 8 draft beers as well. Winos, don’t fret Dutch’s has you
covered with 200 wines available for your enjoyment too.
One of my personal favorites is Unwind. It’s within walking distance
from my apartment, so not only is it super convenient, but it features a wide
variety of wines and has a relaxing rustic feel. A most stop for Happy Hour.
Shopping
The proximity of lululemon
to my apartment is both a blessing and a curse.
Or you could check out Soho Boutique which is located
right off the square.
But if mainstream shopping if you’re thing stop by Rookwood Commons for old faithfuls like
The Gap, Ann Taylor, and JCrew Factory.
Attractions
The backdrop of several outfit posts, Ault Park is one of my favorite places in
Hyde Park! Perfect for a jog, a picnic with friends, or outfit photos :)
If you’re in town over the weekend, check out Hyde Park Farmer’s Market on
Sundays. Some of my favorites include Taste
of Belgium {which has 3 stand-alone restaurants as well} and Street Pops.
So that's it for Hyde Park! I hope you enjoyed reading a bit about the neighborhood I call home. Up next is Katie from Out + Outfit with a tour of Columbia Tusculum.
