I would recommend trying this restaurant. They have a variety of food and drinks and the staff is very friendly. I enjoyed my chorizo skillet and the pineapple mimosa. read more

I love biscuits and gravy! I'm always looking for the best in any city I visit! The day after my bday and a long night of drinking at Bogart's, I ventured to HangOver Easy or HOE, as locals call it. The biscuits were light and fluffy and not made from heavy thick buttermilk, like most. The gravy itself had large chunks of sausage and was very tasty, and eggs were perfectly scrambled. I didn't have any of the beverages they offered except coffee. I would venture to say the best biscuits and gravy I've had. Service was quick but not rushed and I was seat immediately on a busy day of home game college football at the U of Cincinnati. read more

Great food. And the place has a very cool vibe. There's usually a wait, but it's worth it!

The food was good but what stood out the most was the great service we received at the bar. The bartender was amazing his service his drinks and conversation will definitely be the reason I come back! Thanks Dom! read more

The absolute best chicken & waffles I have ever had in my entire life. Really cool place to go.

Good food, good atmosphere. Service could be a little better, to be honest. But, I love the overall vibe!

So good!!!! Get the sweet potato tots!!!!! Every time we are in town we seem to end up Eating here!!! read more

I came here on an out of town trip with a friend. The food was good but could not make up for the awful service. Our waitress was incredibly negligent and when we asked for any kind of assistance from the hostess who was cleaning a table next to ours, we were told "I'm not your server". Then she proceeded to do what she was doing..........while talking on the phone. This place is actually laughable and I will gladly never return read more

The food is amazing! We're from out of town, but visit here every time we're in Cinci. read more

HangOverEasy - Walk of Shame. So good! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I was in the area at the VA medical center. Which oddly I forgot to check in at. I have been following HOE on instagram and couldn't wait to stop in and it was worth it. I ordered a huge breakfast burrito that was oh so very yummy. The also serve some very good coffee. Service was extremely good and helpful. It was a little noisy, but this is because of the way the place is made and decorated. But it is still very good. I would gladly come back here again. The food was very good and of course the coffee was tasty. If you are a Irish whiskey fan they have bottles of it stacked every where. read more

It had been years since I had come to Hang Over Easy, so I was glad to stop in and remember why it's such a great spot! First things first, why is Hang Over Easy so great? BECAUSE THEY USE WAITLIST!!!!! When my parents came down to get lunch with my brother and I we wanted to grab a weekend brunch without having to wait an hour to sit down. Before we left his house, we added ourselves to the waitlist via the Yelp app, which prompted us to arrive by 11:30 am. When we arrived at 11:30, we were immediately seated. I felt like a celebrity as I walked past the crowd of people standing in front of the restaurant. The restaurant was packed, but our server greeted us quickly upon being seated. You could tell that she was hustling to get to quickly serve lots of customers. One note, is that I think in the rush of things, she came across as a little harsh. My brother ordered his meal and when asked what kind of toast he wanted he said "I actually don't want toast, but I would like to order a pancake." She replied "well, you can pay for it," assuming that he wanted the pancake as a replacement for the toast. A simple, "just so you know, that will still ring up in addition to your meal," would have sufficed. I think she may have just been a bit stressed with her tables, she was otherwise very kind and attentive. One of the reasons for this 5 star review is because of the value. I had forgotten how affordable this place was! Every menu item seemed to be $2-3 cheaper than I would expect to see at restaurants of a comparable nature. I imagine this plays well with the college crowd it attracts. I ordered the breakfast tacos ($8). The eggs and chorizo were delicious, but what really set the tacos off were the little bits of jalapeño in the tacos. Not too spicy, but enough to give each bite a little kick, only to be cooled off by the fresh crema. Truly, a fiesta in my mouth. The potatoes on the side were great, and with a little hot sauce, rounded out the meal. Damn, those tacos were good. read more

Very cool location. This food was good and a very large portion for the price. The wait staff was attentive and friendly.

Yum! Super cute place with a cheeky vibe. We tried it out for breakfast during our visit to Cincy. We were there on a Tuesday morning, so luckily not very busy. Our waitress was very nice but we did have to wait a bit for our food. The French toast was amazing, and I had "the dirty" on the waitress' recommendation. So good and made me realize I should order more breakfast burritos in the future, haha. Omelette was fine, but unfortunately the gravy on the sausage gravy biscuits was cold, but the waitress brought us some more hot gravy once alerted to the issue. Would not hesitate to go here again! read more

Yummy! Got here with some friends around 10:30, had about a 30 minute wait and service was prompt. This is such a cute restaurant, has that modern diner feel. The menu is extensive and I had such a hard time picking something. I started with a rainbow mimosa and it was awesome (fun flavors all together). I ended up getting the "walk of shame" with HOE fries and I highly recommend. It was a great combination of sweet and savory, yes to a grilled donut, bacon, cheese, sausage and potatoes! This was so filling! My friends got the bread pudding French toast and the fruity pebbles French toast. Serving was about 2 slices, which seems small but they both said it was just enough for all the sweetness. My other friend got the veggie omelet and seemed pleased. I definitely recommend! read more

While searching for restaurants in Clifton with my brother we found Hang Over Easy. We got on the waitlist through the Yelp app which is highly recommended as we walked right in and waited about 5 minutes for a table while others stood around. I ordered the breakfast tacos with chorizo which was very filling. My only complaint is that when you order a portion of tacos you normally get 3 and this portion only had 2. The potatoes on the side were very good but needed some more seasoning. My brother ordered pancakes and enjoyed them. Would recommend trying at least once read more

*******************UPDATE********************* Similar to before the wait time was longer than expected in terms of being seated and the amount of time it took for us to receive our food. The waitress was apologetic and kind, but they still need to work on their serving efficiency since this is the second time I experienced this issue (Note: I am impatient and do get hangry, so the wait may not be bad for the average patient individual haha) As for the food, I ordered the Dirty Sanchez and Cinnamon Roll Pancake. The Dirty Sanchez was decent. I enjoyed the overall flavor--however the eggs were a bit dry and the potato to everything else inside the burrito ratio was a bit too high for my liking. Luckily, they added a lot of sauce to counterbalance the dryness, but I would still say this dish was a 3 star rating. As for the pancake, I was impressed. It tasted exactly like a cinnamon roll! I am a cinnamonroll-fiend, so this dish was enjoyable--I highly recommend trying it. Overall, I most likely will not come back to this restaurant unless a friend begs me to go with them. Given the variety of brunch choices Cincinnati has to offer, this place would not be on the top of my list. read more

Amazing food, and the sweet potato tots are FIRE. We didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. Our hostess has amazing and the food was responsibly priced. read more

This place was fucking delicious. True to its name, perfect for a hangover: food is rich, indulgent, and in sizable portions. I got the corned beef hash and was not disappointed. The corned beef was fresh prepared, not from a tin and everything was cooked to perfection. Service was also friendly and helpful. Only sad that I didn't have the room to try any pancakes or waffles. read more

Great food!! Service was super! Definitely has been added to our mount routine meals.

I visited Hang Over Easy with my girlfriends on a weekend trip to Cincinatti! The restaurant was modern and spacious, and we felt right at home. Hang Over Easy doesn't take reservations, but they do allow you to call ahead. We called ahead, but still waited about 40 minutes once we got there! We went midday on Sunday, which is a popular brunch-time, so we weren't upset by the wait! The food was delicious!!! I ordered the chicken and chorizo scramble with sunny side up eggs! In the picture, the eggs hide the goodness underneath, but trust me it was perfect! Also the toast came already buttered and that is a game changer in my book! A friend got the quesadilla and another got the Hoe Benny. We were so happy with our choice and I would love to visit again next time we are in Cincy! The flavors were amazing! read more

I liked the fact that this place was on Yelp waitlist and the wait time was super quick. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean and the food came out fast and hot. The food was delicious and the only reason I'm giving a 4 star instead of 5 stars is when we asked the waiter for butter and instead of just going and getting it right away, he told us there was already butter on the bread. There wasn't. Overall, I'd be coming back. read more

Visited Hang Over Easy for the first time today with my husband and a friend. I'll come right out and say it: I hate breakfast food!! But I still enjoyed my meal When we arrived, the hostess told us that there would be a 45 minute wait. We looked around, and immediately saw 6 open tables. Not dirty with dishes on them, but clean, ready-to-go tables. As we waited, those tables stayed open for another 15 minutes. Why the wait? Anyway, we were lucky enough to get a spot at the bar, avoiding the long wait. I ordered the chicken and waffles, and it was phenomenal. The portion was also generous (a large waffle with 4 chicken tenders), so I ate as much as I could and passed it to my husband. He scarfed down the rest. It was truly delicious, and perfect for someone (i.e. Me) who hates most breakfast foods. Our plates were cleared, and it was another 15-20 minutes before our check came. Not sure why, but that's fine. We weren't in a rush. Overall, my meal was delicious. Prices are very fair. Service is slow and questionable. I'd come back for the chicken and waffles if a friend invited me. read more

This place usually would not be my ideal style and vibes, but it's delicious and totally worth the wait. I joined the Yelp waitlist before leaving the hotel, which was about a 15 minute drive, so the wait did not really seem terrible. Once I arrived, I waited about another 10-12 minutes before being seated. All of the host/hostess and servers were wearing masks but the kitchen staff lacked COVID protocols and most were not wearing their masks. I was pleased to see hand sanitizer placed everywhere throughout the restaurant and your server event brings a bottle to the table for you to use. The menu is rather basic, but it works. They have the basics plus some. I ordered the cinnamon roll french toast- delicious, with a side of HOE potatoes. The HOE potatoes are good! I was a little sad when I asked if the orange juice was fresh squeezed and they said no, it's Simply Orange. My friend ordered an omelette and it was a good size but lacked ingredients and cheese. Still decent though. Our server was great, very friendly and attentive. read more

You know. Sometimes you just stumble on a place and feel happy about it. Sometimes you find a place that fits you to a "T". And I think Hangover Easy was just that place for me in Cincinnatti. Open kitchen, divey, good drink specials, and damn...DAMN good food! I arrived a little after 4 PM and was immediately befuddled by a little sign that noted the happy hour offerings were $4 Jameson. I'm in. Before I get to the food, I have to say whatever this place is paying Emmerson...it isn't enough. He is an excellent barman, waiter, entertainer, and conversationalist. Truly. A master of his craft. He offered the right beers and kept the Jameson flowing. He alone deserves high praise and 5 stars. Being the nerd I am I reviewed the menu prior to arrival. I had already decided on the Reuben...but Emmerson squashed any doubts I had and I ordered it. Basically...the only criticism I have is there was not enough 'kraut. The rye was perfectly toasted, crispy, and soft, with the perfect amount of Thousand Island dressing, all nestled on WAY too much Corned beef...which is not a criticism...that would make the best NYC delicatessen blush. Good god this sammich was amazing. MORE KRAUT NEXT TIME!!! The tots were crispy and delicious, but completely humbled by the sammich. The only crap thing is the parking. The university usurps all street parking. So you can run around and try and find street parking or be robbed by the people right across the street. I opted for the former and parked for a mere 50 cents. I cannot knock this place for that as it is beyond their control. So. Final check box. Divey? Check. Good drinks? Check. Good beer (yes that is its own category)? Check. Good barman? Double check? 5 stars? You betcha. read more

GREAT BRUNCH SPOT! I honestly despise eating alone and this experience was no different. Weird way to start a 4 star review, but it helps you understand my state of mind at the time and what caused my experience at no fault to the restaurant to be less than perfect. From a food and drink standpoint, this place is phenomenal. I got 2 meals out of it. The mimosa was delicious. Too bad I drove or I would have gotten the carafe. The PBR was equally delicious. Highly recommend stopping by for breakfast or lunch (or both like me). Next time I'm not driving and getting the mimosa carafe! read more

Honestly the best thing about Hang Over Easy is that they have a waitlist on Yelp. I love breakfast/brunch so much but I've learned so does everyone else on the planet. The last thing I want to do is wake up early on a weekend, and then by the time I'm ready to go eat, my boyfriend refuses because everywhere is always over an hour wait. Join the waitlist through Yelp, check in by the time they tell you and your wait time is nowhere near as long! The food here is super yummy. This time I had the HOE Benny with a side of HOE fries. I love Eggs Benedict and avocado so I would definitely get again. I also love that they have all different kinds of coffee mugs here, gives it a super cool and vintage vibe. Casual environment that's good for both small and large groups. They also have a big bar with available seating! read more

worst Cold Brew I've ever had. they need to let their beans steep longer or they're adding too much water per bean. Burger was severely undersized for price. No effort to turnover tables and reduce wait time during brunch. the sauce that comes with the sweet potato tots tastes like horseradish read more

Busy place on a Saturday, even after UC has let out for the summer! Although the line was out the door when I arrived, most everyone was seated pretty quick. I think I waited 5 minutes? The large group of 6-8 in front of me were told they had to wait 30 minutes. Understandable, as the place is not very big inside. I was dining alone, so I was easy - a spot at the bar please. Impressively large bar, I might add. Two servers taking orders and slinging drinks helped quicken the process. They had wi-fi so after checking out the menu, I was on my laptop, but not for long! My coffee was in front of me within a minute and my meal, "Angry Egg" within 5 minutes! Man, this town moves fast! I really could've gone for an iced coffee, but none to be found here. I was surprised at how much of a bar (liquor and craft beer) it was as it is a breakfast diner. The service was friendly and fast, I dig the atmosphere- fun place! I was underwhelmed by the food though. The toast was perfect (I think on sourdough), but the scrambled eggs and hoe fries were just eh. I think I'd give this place another shot just to check it out again, but I'll try something different next time. Maybe pancakes or french toast? read more

When I lived in Clifton, Hang Over Easy was my #1 spot to...well...cure a hangover. They offer many different eclectic breakfast/brunch options that will cater to anyone, whether it be your friendly neighborhood hipster, your visiting parents, our your low key alcoholic friend group attempting to recover from the weekend. Hang Over Easy is located off of Short Vine on the southeast side of campus. The restaurant is large and minimally decorated. The fixtures and pieces that adorn the restaurant were chosen with care. Whoever designed the place wanted to tell you that you were going to enjoy a great damn breakfast in the most colorful yet chill way possible. The bright color scheme combined with the many windows may also be a subtle way of saying WAKE THE F%#! UP THE WEEKEND IS OVER AND THAT HANGOVER HAS TO GO! Maybe I'm just looking too much into it all. Whatever the case - it's a cool set up. The menu has a lot of approachable options mixed in with traditional choices that have twists. Anybody that serves goetta is automatically a good person in my book. For the longest time I ordered either the "Sloppy Seconds" (standard breakfast fare of eggs, toast and breakfast meat) or the avocado toast with goetta on the side. Recently I found out you can order their HOE Benny but sub the chorizo with goetta - now that's a game changer! They also have a full bar and an impressive tap selection should your choice of hangover cure be more drinking. The only reason I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is that the service is inconsistent. Whenever I sit at the bar the bartenders are on it and get me whatever I need in a timely manner. Whenever I sit at a regular table, the servers are difficult to find and just not as cheery to be there. Maybe because they're farther from the alcohol? Also, takeout service is atrocious. My food has NEVER been ready in the amount of time they quote. When you're nursing said hangover, the last thing you want is to be told 20 and it actually takes 45. I might as well take my walk of shame over to McDonald's at that point. I still highly recommend HOE because their food is amazing. When I'm in the area it's always on my top few places of restaurants I'll choose to eat at. read more

Great service and great food! We waited an hour to be seated but honestly it's worth it. I didn't know they did yelp reservations so I would recommend doing that!

We called the store with no answer so we drove 30 minuets to come here because it was "dog friendly" only for them to tell us that they can't seat us outside for another 45 mins - 1 hour because the owners are having a meeting outside on the patio and cannot seat anyone out there due to the meeting. We went somewhere else for lunch because that is absolutely ridiculous !!!!! read more

I stopped into HangOverEasy for breakfast prior to some plans that were already set in place. We were met and seated immediately, I had checked the reviews prior who said to check in before arrival but I did not have any problems getting in. The waiter was patient and checked in frequently to ensure we had a good experience. The food was good, but was a little pricey for what it was. I did thoroughly enjoy the atmosphere of a modern brunch destination, I could easily see it being a lot of fun to have a brunch party with mimosas there (although I did not partake on this day) overall I think this deserves about a 4 star, with great service and enjoyable food. If it weren't for it being a bit pricey even without drinks, it could be a 5 star. read more
