Rohs Street Cafe Reviews

Friendly staff, great setup for studying with plenty of outlets.

The Best in Cincinnati. Great Service, friendly staff, and the best espresso in Ohio. Though the clover is missing, pour-overs are coming soon.

Wonderful coffee and really, wonderful any beverage. The iced tea is the best I have ever had (usually three blends available) and hot tea s nothing short of the same distinction. Chocolate is a little rich so if you are going for a hot chocolate be warned the combination of high quality milk and high quality chocolate makes for a real rich and creamy cup of hot chocolate.



Awesome environment, huge space, a number of rooms. The two small side rooms serve as a great place to step aside and get some quite studying in away from music, speakers and the more social larger room. Great show s (my favorite is the occasional Thursday jazz) and open mic s

Great coffee and an awesome atmosphere. Since it s in an old church the decor is unique and memorable. The music is eclectic, but a little loud. Definitely worth checking out.

Love the people, the place, but most importantly the coffee!

Really, the best espresso drinks in Cincinnati. Magnificently friendly and highly capable folks in a laid back space with lots of special events.

Great coffee and a great atmosphere to hang out, get some work done, or have a business meeting.

Solid cafe for working - good but not overly impressive coffee selection.

"The music, the atmosphere, the service, and the quality are top notch."

I love Rohs St. Lots of great nights studying here. Great atmosphere for studying and just overall friendliness. Highly recommend!

They have the best service, drinks, and vibe of any coffee shop in Clifton-NKY area. I love coming here and getting work done!

Open floor plan and friendly baristas allow for a positive environment to study, read, or do whatever it is that you do in coffee shops. The coffee is simple and the menu isn't bogged down by specialty drinks or frappes. It's perfect.

Rohs Street Cafe has the best lattes and macchiatos ever. The lattes and macchiatos are so delicious.

Coolest coffee shop I've ever been to! My wife and I have been called 'coffee snobs' by loved ones, and we don't like Starbucks. We always search for local coffee joints when traveling. This place is a jem! The setting, atmosphere and service are excellent. Really enjoyed talking coffee with the staff. They use a local roaster. And I tried Nitro Iced Coffee for the first time!

Paid for a cappuccino and the guy took like 15m to prepared it

+ great hours
+ friendly staff
+ artisan coffee & rotating selection of tea
+ plenty of seating with different sized tables
- crooked floor makes some of the tables wobble

Nice atmosphere, excellent coffee of course and good food. The beans are too expensive for what they are. Sure they are small batch and the highest quality, but for that much money, I want the taste to match.

Really great atmosphere with wonderful art everywhere plus great coffee. Great coffee spot when you need a quiet space.

Good coffee, good pastries, and great atmosphere. A great place to sit and work for a while while.

One of my favorite places to go in the city spacious enough to meet with people, but cozy enough to be motivated to get work done. Plus all the people that go here are AMAZING.

Awesome staff! Quick and friendly service and comfortable place to chill or work on the laptop!

The baristas here are consistently top-notch, and they offer a great selection of freshly roasted coffee to take home.

Great place to read and write and enjoy amazing chai latte. My new favorite place in Cincinnati!

A breath of fresh air! Great offerings from Deeper Roots and ample, various seating suited for hanging out, studying, or just stopping in.

Terrific staff and great atmosphere and vibe. Highly recommended.

Amazing little spot just off UC's campus. Super popular with the local community.

Nice cafe serving fair trade coffees with decent musicians on occasion, a large open space and quieter rooms, reasonable prices, and delicious scones. Parking can be tricky but usually you'll find something. It's nextdoor to a church, but there's no churchy vibe in the cafe.

Nice spot on UC campus. Cozy atmosphere and good coffee, but definitely feels like a college hangout (which is great for those still in college!) Looks like there is sometimes live music too. Would be a good place to study or get some work done.

Rohs Street Cafe has been an essential part of my living in Clifton. Whether I'm getting coffee or beans to go, or sitting in a corner, sipping a latte, I'm always super happy with this place.

I spend most of my days studying here. Great atmosphere, awesome drinks.

Friendly environment, typically always busy. Frequent loud talking and occasional live music make the cafe a bit difficult to get school work done. Good, expensive coffee and cookies/scones, but not a place to get a real meal, even in a pinch.

I drank the coffee
I peed a lot afterwards
Would recommend it

A home away from home with lots of regulars and is very popular as a quiet study spot for students since the WiFi is reliable.

They also have excellent coffee thanks to talented baristas and their long partnership with Deeper Roots.

I don't think my opinion should be totally trusted because I'm not a big coffee drinker, I just gave it a 3 because I wish they had more non-coffee choices. It's a nice place though.

Went here for the first time this morning. The owner, Theresa was so warm and friendly! The cold brew I ordered was reasonable in price, but so delicious I could have drank 9 of them. Definitely heck out this gem if you're around!You are greeted warmly each time you visit and the staff is top notch! The seasonal drinks are delicious, although I do miss the Highlander Grogg Latte they had a few years back.

Huge coffee shop, plenty of room to study. The lattes are excellent

Small, intimate place. The vendors were really nice and helpful. Also instagramable :) There are many places in the city where you can get amazing coffee

The UC area isn t known for local coffee shops. That award usually goes to the coffee places downtown or on the east side. But this place is an exception.

Really good place to study and to have a cup of coffee!

It's the type of place where...

... they do latte art even though they give the drink to you (during Covid times) with a lid on it.

... the staff ask for your name if you come often.

... the staff make their own music playlists.

... the sun floods in through windows past plants and onto old wooden floors.

... you can make new friends or hide away in the corner and get work done.

... the drinks can be customized with single origin beans.

...where a coffee can also be "just a coffee."

... local baked goods tempt you or treat you after turning in that paper.

This is many peoples' "other living room" in Cincinnati. Regulars and newcomers alike, all seem to feel welcome. I know I do! A sign hangs above the coffee grinder...

" We filter coffee, not people."

Try the cortado, find your favorite spot, check out local artists work, enjoy the vibes.

Started in 2003, used to be just pots of coffee in mugs in the basement.

Different than other coffee shops (as of March 2021): local baked goods but no food (means you can bring in take out).

Great atmosphere. Strong coffee. Friendly staff. Lots of room to sprawl. A community library of books to share. Off the beaten path.

Visited about four, it was not full. I will be back with my friends. I can see why they have so many reviews.

Great natural lighting and music. Friendly service and great drinks. Big and open space as well.

Always a great experience here! Love the atmosphere and the friendliness of everyone.

Very clean and friendly staff. Love the atmosphere. Ordered a tea and coffee with a scone. Their scones are fresh out of the oven! Great place to stop by for breakfast/coffee.

Excellent hours, extremely welcoming staff, good prices. Tea/Coffee offerings are always listed, with knowledgeable staff. Great environment.

Cozy cool place right next to UC. Coffee is good (try the Chemex), but really on the "green", acidic side of it - good for a chemex, not so good for an espresso.

Cool space, good internet. Good place to work/study.

Great ambience! Chia tea is best in the city... coffee is superb!!

The staff here is so sweet. Drinks are very yummy. Love the large space & the old church it sits in. They also often have many creative, fun events

Rohs Street is a great local coffee shop, and I have nothing but praise to give it.

The staff are always very courteous, and prepare drinks very well, the coffee selection is always diverse and delicious, and I love the atmosphere. Whenever we have company from out of town, I always like taking them here.

If you need a homey, comfy place to crank out a paper, meet with a friend, warm up in the winter, or relax to a great music selection while enjoying a great cup of coffee, look no further than Rohs Street!

Love the repurposed church space. My rosebud latte was a unique experience

Really good atmosphere. Great service. You'll enjoy the vibes!

Very unique and relaxing atmosphere, love to do some studying here or just grab a quick coffee to go. Definitely prefer it to chain coffee shops.

This is such a great place to get work done and have a great cup of coffee. The staff is so nice and welcoming!
Also its so cute inside(:

Lot's of great seating options and great coffee. Stopped in for a meeting and found it very inviting. Staff is super friendly too and even offered a to go cup when I didn't finish my drink and filled me up before leaving. Parking is street parking which can be troublesome, but it is Clifton so I wouldn't expect anything different.

Hands down one of the best coffee shops in all of Cincinnati. These guys are practically the first to bring specialty coffee and great espresso to our city. I have been enjoying the vibe and drinks here for 10 years now and have never been disappointed. Staff is approachable and engaging.

The people who work here are absolute sweethearts and has a great vibe. The parking is a NIGHTMARE. My car was towed by an adjacent apartment owner and I was in Rohs parking lot. If you're walking it's a great place. Good luck if you're driving.

Very skilled baristas can make you excellent coffee drinks! Local milk, local honey, fair trade teas, housemade chocolate syrup in your mocha. (Though i prefer a cappuccino! They're excellent.) Laid back atmosphere and plenty of power outlets for your laptop.

Great service and coffee. It is right across from University of Cincinnati, so they don't mind you sitting there for hours. They have power strips laid out on floors and have nice music playing.

This place has the worse Wi-Fi. Really Bad internet .

More than just coffee. Come in and see for yourself.

Had no idea about this little hidden gem but was so glad to stumble upon it. Great iced tea and snacks. Fun atmosphere, lots of young people.

Rohs Street is a great, casual, consistent place to study or grab coffee with people. Great coffee and espresso drinks. Good selection of tea. Baristas are friendly and welcoming. Some fun seasonal drinks. Great art around and usually some for sale. Baked goods are amazing and brought in by a local baker too. I almost always get whatever baked good is there for the day with my cortado

It was lovely! Coffee is a bit bitter compared to surrounding shops in the city - but it's also stronger comparatively.

Nice service. Good atmosphere. Very Cincinnati.
