Story

"All Nations welcome but Carrie."

THE STORY OF NATION

At the turn of the 20th century, 6' tall Kentucky-born Carrie Nation ravaged bars across America. Wielding a hatchet, she claimed a divine ordinance to promote temperance by smashing any tavern and saloon that crossed her path. The slogan All Nations welcome but Carrie became a bar-room staple.

Between 1900 and 1910, Carrie was arrested 30 times for her 'hatchetations' until she arrived in Cincinnati. Receiving word of her impending visit, Over-The-Rhine bar owners braced for the worst. Yet upon her arrival Carrie took one step onto Vine street, turned around and left.

When asked why she did not follow her usual path of destruction, Carrie's response was

“I would have dropped from exhaustion before I went one block for all the bars in this city."

Nation serves as a tribute to the rich history of this city and neighborhood. It is meant to be an extension of your living room, a place for gathering neighbors, and a foundation for building community.

Reviews
A brilliant new eatery in the Pendleton neighborhood next to the better-known Over-The-Rhine area of Cincinnati. Welcoming staff, great ambiance in an historic setting and, well, the food, which is incredible. For the most part, burgers, tater tots, and beer, which may not sound very exciting, but the burgers and tater tots are done very creatively, with wonderful flavor combinations, and it's all delicious. Good selection of craft beers, and to be fair, an equally good selection of cocktails, salads and other menu items. All with a fun history lesson about the Temperance movement crusader, Carrie Nation. Just a great place start to finish, and I can't wait to eat there again on my next visit to Cincinnati.

Excellent burgers....very nice fries...and great cocktails. Friendly and attentive service to round out experience. I hear brunch is especially good so we look forward to trying that as well.

The best burger place in Cincinnati. Everything locally sourced and a genuinely great staff. Fabio is an excellent bartender and you can easily have great conversation. Will continue to come back

Everyone knows I'm a sucker for a good burger, and Nation Kitchen always delivers. My experience is always top notch. And it's off the main busy streets, which makes it even better. The burgers are waiting for you, this is a must try spot

My wife and I have a second mortgage with our tabs from this place, and we don't care. I absolutely love this place for everything about it. The atmosphere is relaxed, but not divey, and there aren't TVs at every angle distracting you from your company. The food is ridiculously good, from the creative burgers to the side options, and they have a drink menu that covers everyone. And you can tell they treat their selections with respect. Go here.... Now.
