The Back Porch Saloon

I LUV The Back Porch! It's a great place to go around happy hour. They have decent drink specials (I think it's like $3 vodka sodas, idk bc my hub gets our tab). I definitely like sitting outside in the beer garden. It makes me feel as if I'm drinking up in my burb of Chicago I grew up in or maybe olearys minus the gulf in SRQ. I guess, like home.
The servers are awesome & over the past few months (moved here in May) we havd become regulars. I am never left thirsty . Pam & I wish I could remember her name (sry if u read this) are AWESOME with my 3 year old, Aubrie. They take her around the restaurant with them.
My fav thing to order is the salad with the mixed greens, goat cheese, cranberries & pine nuts. I'm totes having memory lapses this am. Their onion rings are also TDF!
Seriously a must check out if ur around the burbs of Cincy!

I come to the back porch all the time and it is awesome!! Our normal waitress is Terri She is a great waitress and fun to be around. The food here is splendid. On every other Friday they have clam chowder And that is one of my main foods that I love here. For a appetizer I love to have the mozzarella sticks. My wife loves to drink the Yingling beer and I think she loves it most because they bring it in a frosted glass. I recommend the back porch to everyone because it has great atmosphere, great food and great service. Come one, come all and you'll  have a ball.

I live just 6 minutes away from here, and although I have only one Yelp check in I have been a semi-regular over the past  3 1/2 years. (Wasn't yelping before.)

The Back Porch fits the definition of a true modern American 'pub' -- that is, public house.  Just on a VERY large scale. Although there's a definite emphasis on beers and spirits, you really can't call this a bar. As others have said, the bar itself is very small compared to,the rest of the place. You've got your high top tables right there in the bar area, a small dining room just off the bar, then the big main dining room with booths and tables that are well arranged to accommodate a lot of people without feeling squeezed. Then you've got not one but two outdoor rooms that are protected from the elements, plus the big outdoor area with the neon palm trees.  Guests of all ages will feel at home somewhere!

Menu has been revamped somewhat over the past year or so.  Excited to see the $5 bar bites menu available at all times .. Good stuff on there and portion is much more than a bite. My gripe going back a couple of years was that the menu was lacking excitement and the prices seemed too high for an ultra casual place. Seems like they've been working on both issues.  

Fish and chips is my go to item for Friday and other meatless occasions. Fast, delicious, and fills you up.  And don't miss the fried pretzel bar bite. To. Die. For.  Wings with the garlic sauce are also recommended. Their chili unfortunately  is "Texas style." Ribs are excellent and you should get two meals out of it easily.

The wifi signal needs a boost.  You can also play Keno here and they have instant lottery tickets.  

They offer a prompt and efficient  takeout service too and basically charge nothing for it.  Last time I looked it was 25 cents. (Not per container, for the whole order.). Call it in, hop in the car and head over.

I expect to be checking in more often.
