Bryn and Rob check out the wine and The Buzz at Dutch's.
On Friday, we met up with old friends to check out a few new-to-us places: Dutch’s Bar & Bottle Shop and Keystone Bar & Grill. Both are in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Cincinnati and not far from where Robert and I used to live, so it felt good to be back in familiar territory. First stop was Dutch’s for a drink. When we last lived in Hyde Park – seven years ago, gasp – this was a bottle shop. It was a good place to buy wine and beer, but not somewhere you could hang out and drink. Now it has a small bar, a patio with a fire pit and a bocce ball court. The atmosphere was casual – except for one couple making out in the corner – and there was a good selection of wines and beers. We loved it! (Well, maybe not the make-out couple.)
Next stop was Keystone for dinner. This place is known for it’s Quesadilla and Mac ‘N Cheese menus, so we sampled both. Yum. Good home cooking. We all left happy. Plus, there’s nothing quite so good as getting caught up with old friends.
