Today was the first time to visit this awesome place the friendly stop. Wasnt disappointed!!!! Jessica the bartender/ service very nice. I ordered the mushroom an swiss burger an it was very good. Would be nice if there was one on the westside.
Great staff. Very friendly and accommodating. The food here was delicious and my drinks were also worth noting.
Great food and great company. Its like being with friends and family but better lol.
Great service, great food and friendly neighborhood atmosphere.
Awesome atmosphere!! Ordered the whisky BBQ it was on point.. Felt like a local 😊recommend for everyone!!!
Food is awesome here! Prices are pretty easy on the wallet. Great atmosphere, a definite place to go!!
Excellent food, excellent service. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
We had an intimate experience. Really cozy only problem I had was that my food wasnt hot 😐 will try again though. 🙃
My husband loves the hamburger there and I had a Reuben it was good theyre so good to use a little more seasoning the atmosphere was nice I would go back again
Aptly named. The crew were welcoming and friendly. It was my first visit but will make an effort to get back. The meatloaf sandwich was excellent.
Great burgers! Fabulous bloody Marys courtesy of Austin! Neat little hole in the wall bar and clean! Definitely worth the visit if youre on the area.
Quaint little spot that serves great food. A small town location(Glendale, Ohio) in the city. Its quaint.
I have been going here for lunch once a week for over a year. Simple but good food.
Love this place. I get the garlic burger which has roasted garlic on top
Small, cozy and you guessed it, friendly. Great food and old school vibe. Prices are great. Worth a look for sure.
Awesome bar and grill, burgers were top notch!
Love the atmosphere here and reading the license plates means food is there before you know it. Best tater tots ever!! So crispy
Always a good time at The Stop. Food and the company were both great!
A great little local hole-in-the-wall joint with a simple, but broad menu. Good food, very fair prices. Nothing fancy, just a great little place for lunch. Will be back for sure.
Everything Ive had is delicious here and the burgers are some of the best anywhere.
Food was great! Service was good. Will definitely be going back.
Finally got out and hooked up with my bff Rhonda for appetizers and drinks and lots of people I hadnt seen in a long time. Great place to eat, drink, and be merrier 😊
A really cute place. FirstTime visit. Food was excellent.
Great food. Love the Fried Bologna BLT!
Good food and very accommodating. Excellent service.
Serves bar food. Good sandwiches and salads but no dinners.
Wonderful service. Menu is outstanding. Atmosphere is unbeatable. Loved it. Will be coming back.
Cold beer delicious food and great service.
They do it their way, which happens to be the right way m Out door seating on the roof
Great little neighborhood hangout. Nice mix of people. Good, reasonable food.
GREAT burgers and fries... pretty good selection for a smaller establishment. Never had anything bad, and service is great. Can get crowded at lunch rush as the prices are competitive.
Small place but big helpings.
Very pleasant surprise.Nice neighborhood bar that has good tasting bar food. You receive generous portions and the menu prices should probably be doubled.The ladies here do not play games, but they are attentive, efficient and polite.I had a club sandwich and potato tots (fried - not baked) and loved both. I will be back next week.
Best meatloaf in town.
Enjoy yourself at the Friendly Stop. The fries with seasonings are excellent! The menu has many tasty choices besides the fries such as the Philly chicken sandwich. Sandwiches include wavy potato chips. Dinner entrees like meatloaf and more are available too. Nice selection of beers and spirits. Friendly service, just dont be an inpatient jerk, because well, who wants to be that person?
Serve yourself basically. If you dont go there every day, you are intrusive to their club.
A great hole in the wall gem. Memorable menu with daily specials. Prices are great staff are helpful and friendly. Seating is cozy and crowded at times but the customers all want the same thing, good food with good people so it is easy to enjoy the time there.I had a mushroom swiss burger and it was done very well. The fries were perfect crinkle cuts. Definitely a place to try it all.
They have great food and great customer service. The prices are just right.
Great burgers and friendly staff
Great food. Nice place.
Food was delicious. Had a good time.
I eat in this lovely place from time to time! This is the best place to pass a nice evening. I visit this place frequently. The cooking is of high quality, the staff members are friendly and the payment is affordable. I enjoy being in this restaurant for a tasty meal.
Nice little stop. Their burgers were great, and the service was decent. One of a kind atmosphere, and definitely small. It can get quite cramped during busy times. Its what you would expect form a place like this, only oddly quaint in its own way.Parking is quite lacking, and can be a pain to get in and out of when only at half capacity.
Good spacing, great food, excellent service!🙂
Really good food, great service. Friendly place too. Lol, well, its named appropriately!
This restaurant offers great service as well as delicious menu. My favourite restaurant around here. The food arrived rapidly and the rates are economical. I recommend this place.
The best hole in the wall youll ever eat and drink at! The best bar food around town, home-made desserts, cold beers, laid back atmosphere, friendly people, and great staff/service. This place is always a solid place for after work shenanigans.
Always great
Stopped in and got a reuben and chips it was delicious
This place is COZY! We sat in the back room, be prepared to meet your fellow dinners! ! Hunter was our waiter, nice kid, but, dont quit your day job Son, waiting tables is not your calling in life. Had the gooey cheese sticks and cheese burger with potato chips, all were good, I would go back.
Home cooking. Great service.good prices.
Awesome food, very friendly staff members, consistently awesome atmosphere. They charge convenient prices and the food quality is good. Great work.
Always good food, good service and good small bar atmosphere!
I dont know where all the friendly servers were that everyone seems to rave about in their reviews, because I sure didnt get one! Our waitress could have cared less about taking our order. All we got was side eye. Another waitress ended up helping us.
Lives up to its name.
This place is amazing unique food like potato rags and fantastic chicken wings!!!
Amazing place. Loved our server (Cara). Very helpful. Definitely worth stopping at.
Steak burgers and tots with chili is what I had and it didnt disappoint. The burgers great, chili was yummy and long islands were very good. Great little neighborhood bar and grill!
It really is a friendly stop. I have never really been there for any real length of time but everyone has always been very nice and the service is great. We have all been those places where no one acknowledges your presence until they are good and ready. That has never happened here in my experience. Besides all that the food is highly recommended!
Friendly staff made me feel at home. Ice cold beer and their famous garlic Berger.
Great small bar/restaurant ala Cheers type in Glendale. The decor is genuine articles of local memorabilia. Witty, used license plates, signs and sports teams with local roots add to the atmosphere. There is a Glendale high school baseball team photo with my BFFs dad right in the front row! He is 93 years old!!Menu is varied; mostly bar type food of great quality. We especially enjoyed the (huge) fish sandwich, grilled cheese sandwich, bean with ham soup, onion rings and fr fries!!The wait staff was very friendly and made frequent stops to refill drinks and check on us!Great place!
The rustic dining area gets crowded during peak lunch hours. If you can appreciate it for what it is, this spot will soon become a favorite. The food here is amazing and the staff is friendly and open to getting to know you as a regular.There is a great outdoor deck in the summertime. I havent met something on the menu I havent liked.
Fun casual place. Great grilled cheese sandwiches with bacon and tomatoes. Interesting car license plates on the walls. Cute guy pictures in ladies room.
I came to Cincinnati on vacation recently and one of my favorite things to do is go to local dive spots. This certainly fits the bill! Im fairly certain everyone stopped talking when we went in; it was quite funny. We had the potato rag as an appetizer and they were excellent! I think I am going to try to make some at home and I know they wont be nearly as good. I had the BBQ burger, which was okay. I personally liked the bites I had of my companions Cheeseburger Deluxe better. Overall, if I was ever in the area again I would go back.
My wife and I were in the area and stopped in for quick drink. Neither of us had been there for several years so it was good to see the place has not changed much from its cozy corner bar atmosphere. The service was just as the name implies Friendly and warm as usual. Hopefully we will be back sooner than the last stretch.
Love friendly stop, Cajun Burger is incredible, I get it every time I go there I assume the rest of the menu is is great as well, but I love the Cajun Burger. End of story. Steve the Plumber out
Went for the first time last week and it was delicious! I had a burger and chips. Service was wonderful. Very busy decor, but in a good way. We go there right after they opened and there was already a decent crowd. Next time Ill be trying the off menu specials listed behind the bar. Great prices too!
Pretty good food! Pretty good service! Quaint hole-in-the-wall gathering spot!Had an enjoyable time w/my daughter here! #Recommended
Love this place when we come to town from Springfield
This spot is worth a visit. They serve big portions for fair rates. Consistently neat and with awesome atmosphere. Will come visit again.
Great place, been coming here my entire life. Ill be back 100%
Truly a place you must see to believe. They have license plates all over the walls and you can add to their collection if you want to. Food is always hot out of the kitchen. Typical bar food menu with burgers, sandwiches, meat loaf and so on. Friendly staff that greets you when you walk in. Not an extensive beer menu but they have great prices with or without the Happy Hour. Loses a star because though the food is not spectacular, its good hot bar food.
Great Burger, i will be back
One of my favorite little stops for a few drinks and burgers. The best burger around! And they know how to make long islands and anything else you want. Atmosphere is great! Miss sitting at the bar and catching up with friends.
First time going with my daughters today and it was DELICIOUS! Reminds me of the little cafes in New Jersey, very small and quaint but you know if you keep going they will remember your name. Will be going back, cannot wait to have another burger!
Nice cozy bar/restaurant to enjoy and go back in time for a while. Good food, pleasant staff.
Hot Damn. First time I went there.Popular domestic beer on tapAmazing burgersThe chicken wings were some of the best Ive ever had hands down.10/10
Great bar food (sandwiches, soups,burgers, etc). Friendly, relaxed service. Relatively Inexpensive. This place has a very small rustic dining area around a bar. If the place is crowded it can get a little claustrophobic for some, but always an enjoyable experience.
Great as always
A great neighborhood bar and grill. Always find the food great and service great too. Very comfortable place to eat and drink.
Love the atmosphere. The pot roast was very good. Soups are real good also.We will be back.
First time visiting this place. Im from out of town and I just happened to look up nearby restaurants. This had most of everything that I like to eat. I called placed an order and picked up. The meatloaf actually was to die for very tender very good. The salad was good the chicken was good also. Service was excellent. I highly recommend
The excellent food inside is a fooler from the outside.
The food is good and the atmosphere is top notch. It almost feels like stepping back in time in the best way possible.
Great to get back home.
If you like small bars youll love this place! Great bartenders and service but way to small for me!
Always good service and food 😁🍺
Cant beat the friendly stop for a cold one and a burger. Local crowd but everybody is very friendly just like the sign says.
Great bar to catch up with friends!! Staff is very friendly and fun!! I love it here!! Hidden fun spot of Cincinnati!!
Good place! Nice hole in the wall style
Local dive bar like Cheers. Awesome Cod sandwich, good happy hour -all day on Sundays, friendly staff and clientele. You wont be disappointed!
I went here for a late lunch and found a seat right away. I was served a menu and my drink order was taken right away. I ordered an Adam’s Double Deluxe sandwich and it was not only HUGE, but very tasty as well. I got it loaded and it was cooked to my liking. I also ordered onion rings and I got a huge basket of those too. I had to ask for something to dip them in and settled for some ranch dressing. These two things combined will make sure you dont leave hungry! Will return when in the area again.
Sweet local spot with great selection
Went here after a long day of prom dress shopping and at first glance it seemed very small and wasnt extremely impressive. Yet, I loved the decor and the place was absolutely full of friendly people! The license plates on the wall were so interesting to look at and the atmosphere was actually pretty uplifting, being surrounded by cheerful locals that obviously loved the place. I ordered a reuben and my family and I shared a basket of fries. Ive never been more impressed by such a simple sandwich in my life. It honestly almost beat my mothers. We also ordered wings for the table to share and they were perfectly crunchy. Overall it was a great experience! We even got to know a great couple that we got to share a meal with due to the cramped seating. Although that might put you off a little, getting to know them amped up our experience even more! I loved Friendlys and if I ever find myself in that area Id probably go again.
