A new wine bar and cafe has entered the East Walnut Hills culinary scene.
Symposium had a soft opening May 6 only to be closed down days later due to a leaky sink. The wine bar and cafe finally hosted its grand opening on May 11, and as co-owner J. Matt Nickels told CityBeat in an email, they have been going strong ever since.
The space has a relaxed Hemingway cafe-style atmosphere which Nickels says harkens back to stories from Italy told to him and his co-owner and chef Aaron Owen by their family.
The space features a main dining room with a lounge known as The Nest, a private dining and event space called the Rumpus Room, an outdoor patio that currently seats 10 (weather permitting) and Symposium’s three bars.
Each bar offers up something different — one serves up coffee, the other has drinks and the last, food.Symposium is located at 2835 Woodburn Ave., East Walnut Hills. More info: symposiumcincinnati.com.
