Going to see Burrow and Chase play.
Looking to fill two other days with things to do.
Food/Entertainment Recs?
We are going to see the Air Force Museum on one day for sure.

Air Force Museum is a must, which you already are aware of.
Graeters Ice Cream is a must.(Portnoy Review in link. 3 minute mark.)
Dave Portnoy reviewing Graeters Ice Cream
Skyline Chili optional - People either love it or hate it.
Reds have a Reds Hall of Fame Museum.
Kentucky Horse Park is 75 miles south down I75.

not sure if you have kids but the history museum is pretty cool. its in a WWII train terminal. its most targeted towards kids, but there is more adult related things like the WWII stuff
Cincy Zoo is one of the tops in country.
Over the Rhine area is a restaurant district
Jungle Jims Grocery Store
If Kings Island is still running rides for Halloween
The one thing that sucks about the air force museum is they are limiting stuff because of Covid. you cant go in most the planes like you could before, especially the old Air Force Ones

I went to college nearby. The USAF museum is very cool but absolutely huge, make sure you have a few hours.
Jungle Jim's grocery in Fairfield. It bears some explanation. Think of a place the size of the biggest Walmart or Home Depot, all full of groceries from around the world. A live fish market the size of a CVS. A similar sized wine shop, same with cheese. You want potato chips from Russia? Mustard from Sweden? Butter from Japan? No problem. Also there is an old Disney monorail on site.
Montgomery Inn is not that great, but the sauce is. Skyline is tasty but not the chili you expect.
Any of the Jeff Ruby properties will make a great steak.
I always enjoy a burger at Zip's Tavern in Mt. Lookout.

The zoo is one of the top 10 in the country.
Pour one out for Harambe.

You can drink while shopping as well. FWIW the monorail is from the old zoo at kings island. make sure you get a map if you go, easy to get lost

Just got back.
Hotel: Lytle Park (Marriott Autograph) - Best reviewed in the city and excellent.
Jungle Jim’s as mentioned above. There are 2 locations. Go to the original in Fairfield. Skip the Eastgate location. There is a Graeter’s Ice Cream inside.
American Sign Museum
Skyline Chili
Forest Fair Village Mall (close to Jungle Jim’s): This is an odd tip. It’s a huge abandoned but open dead mall. It is eerie and probably not completely safe but best to see. They don’t want you taking pictures of video inside. Check YouTube for more details.

Also… EnterTRAINment Junction if you have any interest in model trains.

I lived around that area for 2 years. .y favorite place around the area was Kreimer's. It's out of the way but great food and beer if you have an afternoon to kill.
I personally like Gold Star more than Skyline but I am definitely the minority on that.
Newport area is ok. Cincinnati is a cool little city.

I’m with you. Im going this weekend to watch the Browns-Bengals. Mainstrasse Village is across the river. It’s a German area with restaurants and shops.

Mainstrasse is nice. If you have time to drive 30 minutes and have an afternoon to kill, you need to check out Kreimer's.
