Venues
BlackFinn Restaurant & Saloon was established in New York City in 1994. As part of their lives growing up in New York City, the proprietors were exposed to many of the world's greatest saloons. When the time was right they decided to act on their vision for the great American saloon, and thus, BlackFinn was born. Over the years the proprietors have developed numerous venues and concepts. They recently made the strategic decision to focus on evolving the traditions of the New York Style Saloon. The product of that focus has been making BlackFinn the new standard in the New York Style Saloon experience.

The Pub at Rookwood Mews is an authentic, high-energy British pub conveniently located in the Rookwood Commons, just 5 minutes north of downtown Cincinnati in the Hyde Park area. Our draught beer offerings are the finest to be found and the pub fare features the best from the British Empire. The Pub has become a favorite among Brits and Yanks alike.
The name "The Pub at Rookwood Mews" is rooted in the London mews, which are currently alleys behind two rows of houses, but in Victorian times functioned as stables and quarters for grooms and servants. The mews are features of the London neighborhoods where the local pub is an integral part of the community. The Pub, in a setting reminiscent of a London Mews, is also designed to incorporate all the elements of the small community pubs which are such an integral part of English social life.
All of the furniture and most of the accessories used in the interior were shipped over from England to guarantee the authentic British experience. The centerpiece of the Pub is a handcrafted bar from which guests can sample a wide range of English, Scottish and Irish draught, and cask conditioned beers, as well as domestic beers. "Optic Pourers" native to traditional British pubs take center stage at the bar, giving The Pub at Rookwood Mews a unique look. We invite you to visit our pub and experience for yourself the wonder of Old Tyme England.
