Something new (and really cool 👀) is coming to the corner of 12th & Walnut in Over-the-Rhine.

Meet .bar. The newest concept from the team behind .otr and .space.

The team has been putting in serious sweat equity to bring this space to life, from hand-painting the exterior windows to incorporating thoughtful, intricate design details throughout the space. Having watched the transformation happen day by day, it’s safe to say the creativity and attention to detail are unmatched.

The bar is opening late summer/early fall, with the hotel portion of the concept to follow later in the development. 🍸✨

Welcome to the neighborhood, The Muse! 🖤
