The turtles are excellent although the pecans have a unique flavor (not good not bad just different). My favorite thing was probably the gummy frogs sealed in a bag and very fresh.

The old-school charm of the shop, with its vintage chairs and ice cream diner vibe, felt like stepping back in time. My wife and i decided to indulge in a sweet treat and as we waited for our orders. She opted for two scoops of chocolate and coffee, while i chose a unique sundae named bourbon it has vanilla, chocolate, and coffee all topped with hot fudge and caramel. Each bite was bursting with flavors that were both rich and unexpected, thanks to their homemade creations. The attendant proudly shared the shop's history having been open since 1908, adding a layer of nostalgia and authenticity to our experience. Walking away, i couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to experience such a delightful spot. The combination of rich history, exceptional flavors, and friendly service made Aglamesis Brothers a must-visit for anyone in Cincinnati seeking a memorable ice cream parlor experience. I'll definitely be back to savor more of their creations and to delve into the stories of their long-standing tradition. Until then, thank you for a truly delightful journey!

The selection of international foods was incredible. My husband and I found products that we hadn't seen since traveling abroad, which made the visit especially nostalgic and fun. It truly felt like taking a culinary trip around the world without leaving the store. One of the unique features is that adults can purchase a beverage from one of the small bars inside the market and enjoy it while browsing the aisles. Combined with the incredible variety of foods, snacks, spices, and specialty items, there was always something new to discover around every corner. We could have spent hours exploring and still not seen everything. If you enjoy trying foods from different cultures or simply love wandering through unique grocery stores, this is absolutely worth a visit. It was one of the most memorable stops on our trip.

Yes a bar where you can get a beer or glass of wine! You can taste test wines before you buy! That is wonderful! And for you whiskey lover you can buy a shot of whiskey! The produce...fruits and veggies from all over the world! I actually found fresh prickly pears! Most everything is reasonably priced. If I lived near here I would need to build a large pantry onto my house! Lol...someone has a sense of humor for the restrooms! Thry were beautiful and clean inside! The cashiers were wonderful.

Really disappointed to see Patty's closed during one of the most vibrant and community-driven…read moreevents in the city -- the Hyde Park Blast. It's one thing to close early, but to post a handwritten sign calling the event "stupid" was shockingly unprofessional. It's figuratively and literally more than a bike race, it's a fundraiser that supports cancer research and survivorship through the CancerFree KIDS Pediatric Cancer Research Alliance. It brings thousands of people together for a cause that matters deeply, while also creating one of the most electric, family-friendly atmospheres you'll find in Cincinnati. From a business perspective, this was a massive missed opportunity. The streets were filled with people eager to support local shops and enjoy the events which is exactly the kind of audience any small business would hope for. Instead of welcoming that energy, Patty's turned it away and insulted the very people walking by their storefront. I love supporting small, local businesses, but this kind of response shows a disconnect from the community that makes Hyde Park special. I hope they reconsider how they respond to events like this in the future.

Another place on our list to visit - the new shop with the new owners. They were customers and…read morebought from Mark who was the original founder. We stopped by after a visit to the Newtown Candy shop. We took some lobster roll kits and clam chowder home. They pride themselves on fresh seafood regularly flown in from around the world. Their pricing is double Jungle Jims and triple kroger. Can't say good or bad until we try the fresh fish. For example they have many types of Salmon from around the globe. $49.99 for Sea Bass is pricey for me. I think Halibut was $39.99 a pound and the salmon was $20-$30 a pound. They also make their own sides. The clam chowder had too many potatoes. On Friday and Saturday nights they cook a few meals out back in a small tent/room. Main items are Lobster Rolls and Fish n chips.

Just happened to pop into this shop on a whim after passing it many times over the years. Wow, was…read moreI impressed with all they had to offer! In fact, I was so taken by the owner sharing the history of Lobsta Bakes and all of the items that are made onsite, that I completely forgot to take photos with one exception: the menu! They have a small space to serve dinner on weekends with a menu that changes often. From fresh fish to chowder, crab cakes, Lobster rolls, sauces, pies, and much more, this is a place you have to visit! I bought some clam chowder, lobster roll kits, crab cakes and lobster quiche- all were fantastic!

Since we were in it for fun, I just went with the flow and didn't count prices. Overall, the truffles and other delicacies are priced like any nice chocolatier and they items were tasty. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered but I learned that most of the items are too rich or large for my 3 and 5 year old children. My 5yo could only get through half of a truffle before she was overwhelmed, in my 3YO could only get through half of one of the specialty marshmallows. Basically, I overdid it. I would absolutely go back here and order less.

The rice krispie treat costs double than the one at the Noodles and Co and is smaller and has wrong ratios of marshmallows to krispies. Its too much marshmallow and has no real flavor.

If you love small businesses and you love your cats, boy... do I have news for you…read more The Cat Lady presides like the queen of her castle in downtown Newtown, alongside her two beautiful blind kitties, Reagan and Riley. If you're lucky enough to see the twins roaming about the store, ask them what they think you should buy -- I've been treated to them leading me directly to some of their favorite toys and requesting some one-on-one playtime. Every guest is family to these two. The Cat Lady curates her wares carefully. There are no cheap and useless toys here, no knock-off nonsense that your cat will turn his back on, and nothing dangerous that may hurt your kitty's delicate sensibilities. Whether you're looking for cat-related jewelry and clothing, cat-related decor for your home, cat-related gifts for friends and family, or a treasure trove of catnip-laced paraphernalia for your long-tailed beauties at home, this is the place to be. We make a point to visit Confetti Cats at least every few months to pop in and say hello to the twins, and to stock up on the toys that have proven to be "kitty crack" to our own kids at home. Ask The Cat Lady where the catnip fur "carrots" are -- real rabbit fur pouches stuffed full of catnip and topped with colorful bursts of bird feathers. Every fresh batch of these that we bring home results in hours of joy with our little ones.
