Venue Information

Welcome to Mr. Pitiful’s! Cincinnati’s OTR premier bar/dance club! Originally a jazz club in the early 00’s, we’ve evolved into one of Cincinnati’s most popular night-time hot spots.

    WE ARE
    “Your BAR in the OTR”

    • “ Seriously, I love it here. ”

      This is my new go-to bar…Drinks are cheap, there’s a variety and the bar is gorgeous.The staff is fun and friendly.

    • “ How am I just now finding this place??? ”

      I’m a fan. This is one of the few places in OTR that doesn’t feel like it’s been taken over by “hipsters” and you don’t have to fight just to get a good drink. I will definitely be back.

    • “ A great time was had by all! ”

      The drink prices were very good and it was over all a really fun atmosphere.  This is definitely a change from the other establishments in OTR, but is a great spot when you just want to dance!
