The 86 Club is truly a special place. They have the absolute best coffee that is roasted in the basement by Pneuma Coffee. The staff is amazing. The owner, Chris Human, is awesome. Just a very genuinely nice guy that is always down to talk and love on people. If you go definitely try the pour over with Ethiopan Yirgacheffe and their cold brew #yirgforlife. The 86 is always my go to place to get homework done or get coffee in the Cincinnati area. Dont forget to try their oatmeal/chocolate chip homemade cookies on your way out! They have live music on the weekends and free pancakes on Wednesdays from 8am-10am.

Oh My Goodness!! THIS IS THE BEST COFFEE I HAVE EVER TASTED!! Im not trying to be dramatic, BUT! the Tanzanian Peabody is so yummy, delightful, balanced, and ridiculous that I moan after every sip! I have been drinking coffee all my life, and at so many venues around the U.S.. . . this is special, by far! I did have the house blend, too, the other day-- yummy, as well!! And the customer service is always fabulous!! Thank you for making my every morning special.. . . I get so excited to get up and make my coffee!

If youre looking for a comfortable atmosphere where the staff cares about you and your coffee needs, look no further. I came in here for the first time last week with my sister expecting a simple coffee shop and to our surprise, were both blown away with the service, coffee, and spacious environment. Oh, and did I mention theres free Wi-Fi (that is actually faster than any of the Wi-Fi at the University down the street)?? 10/10 would most definitely recommend.

I came here looking for a warm place within walking distance from the medical campus to spend an afternoon. The red velvet hot chocolate good, if a little sweet for my tastes, but once that wore off, I had to put my coat back on because I was so cold. The music was good, and the free wifi was fine, but I wish they would spend a little more on their heating bill.

Went here for the first time today and its already have favorite coffee spot around campus. Spacious, welcoming, comfortable. They also dont charge extra to substitute milk for almond milk. The vibe in here is so cool. Ill defiantly have to tell my friends who perform music to look into this place. Wi-fi was also very easy to connect to, unlike other places.

Great music, great people, and most importantly, great customer service! The people there actually talk to you like youre human, and they arent afraid to strike up a conversation. The low light setting and soft music is perfect for a night out with your girlfriend! The choices of beverages there are outstanding in quality and delicious!

Excellent atmosphere; friendly, helpful staff. My favorite place to sit for hours and study because there are a wide range of seating options with barstools, couches, and comfortable chairs. And the coffee is delicious.
