It's in a terrifying neighborhood. Let's get that out of the way right now. There's always a sixteen year old prostitute waiting outside when you leave. Prepare yourself to see a lot of face tattoos. Unless you have a big burly drinking buddy (which I do), don't go here. Especially women. I'd be afraid to go by myself.
But when I'm not alone, I love this place. The owner is one of the coolest guys I've ever met, and you'll meet a lot of interesting people (and hear their prison stories). There's even free pizza on good nights. Outside might be scary, but once you step inside, you immediately feel comfortable with everyone around you, even if you couldn't be more different from each other. Again, I'm saying this from the perspective of a woman who's never gone there unaccompanied by a man, so I can't say how comfortable I'd be with the clientele if there were more factors. As it stands, though, I agree with the previous reviewer, 'cause I "always enjoy the culture here".
OK, I am a bit biased in favor of the cool factor of the Greenwich because I saw my total hip-cat stepdad play in his middle-aged guy jazz combo here when I was visiting home.
The Greenwich is a jazz club and bar that frequently hosts jazz and other nights. The drinks won't be the fanciest you've ever had, but they will be cheap! I grew up in Cincinnati and never really checked this place out until my recent visit, but I'd definitely head here again.
I know what the name of the bar looks like but pronounce it GRENICH and you've got it. Be assured that despite being located in a rather rough part of town that you really want to experience the history, art and culture available at this incredible, little, jazz club. I've neglected attending the spoken word Wednesdays for far too long but caught a low attended set by one of my girlfriends bands last time I stopped by. I lounged in the barely lit side room nursing my beverages watching Tristan Eckerson play his last local show. While this particular musician isn't my favorite, the current calendar is full of music I wish I had time to see.
I've always loved the classy beatnik feel and I feel a shadowy romance wash over me when I walk in to meet a date. Hit up your bartender for a good conversation about jazz and the history of the musicians that have played there over the past few decades.
