Anderson Township Pub

Still 5 stars! Over a year later, after having not visited since moving 800 miles away, the first thing I’m greeted with was «where’ve ya been?! The food is still classic ATP, boomer crowd, dark, erratic décor. Still my favorite burger ever, too. They’ve added a new menu with «deluxe» burgers, offering everything from gravy burgers to a French onion themed burger — kick ass meat, grilled with a hot pink center adorns them all.
You go, ATP, keep being the dive of my dreams.
Oh yeah, Federal Hill, horseradish cheese, medium rare. Juicy and perfect. Best restaurant burger of my life.

Great food, older crowd and everyone seem more like regulars. If your a people watcher this is a great place to do that a wide variety of people.

Do you know why this is the greatest bar in the world? Because it has zero cell phone service. I can get on their free Wi-​Fi but when my wife calls me it goes straight to voicemail. I am truly the modern ‘Norm’. Oh, their food is pretty kick-​ass, too. The ladies behind the bar are also great. A word to hipsters, though, this is definately a boomer bar…

Good American bar food and friendly staff. It has a neighborhood bar feel to it and it is somewhat dark inside with lots of tv’s and unlimited popcorn. I’ve been coming here with my family since I was young and the place hasn’t changed (I think it’s a good thing!)

Never had a bad meal here! Burgers are great. Probably the only restaurant on beechmont that isn’t some sort of chain. Its never too crowded here so stop in!

This is a tiny little neighborhood place. Everyone knows everybody. Thursday is but one burger get another for$ 5. There’s a list of special burgers and regular burgers. One of the burgers can be special, but not both, even though they are just$ 1 different in price. They have gotten a little creative.
I had a double decker. Part burger part ham and cheese. It was very tasty. My daughter got the chicken fingers, they were fried to a crisp. Most of the burgers are plain ol. Those fries seemed to be fresh made but they were limp and oily. They looked nasty. I wouldn’t have ordered them had I known they’d be like this. Chips are usually the side to any burger unless you upgrade.
It was so small and dark. I think this place is basically a meeting place for drinkers. There was just one other table dining in, everyone else was drinking. I think I’d pick-​up up an order one day on my way home from work, since it’s on the way.

Great cozy place to get great food and watch the game. Prices were reasonable and food was delicious. Definitely a place I will be visiting again.

ATP is a cozy, divey type bar. I totally get it as as place the locals will hang out. I haven’t tried the burgers, which I heard were good. We apparently ordered all the wrong things and I was pretty underwhelmed. Wouldn’t recommend the fried mushrooms. Service was super nice, however, and while I probably would not go out of my way to get back there, I will have to try a burger if I do. Or just order drinks.

Outstanding burgers and wings, it is also loaded with HD TVs and is a superb place to watch a game. The daily soups are also a favorite and you can’t go wrong with the carrot cake for dessert. The outside patio has sporting events on year around and is a classic. Trey the bartender pours them like a true friend. I give this Cheers type restaurant five stars.

This is a good pub where you can go in jeans and a ball cap and relax. Staff is friendly and food is great! I’ve only been during the summer and they have a front patio so you can enjoy the weather. I plan on going back.

Thought the ambiance could use some help however food was great! Down-​home pub type food, amazing home made fries and sandwiches, I hear their know for their burgers however I had an amazing roast beef sandwich, out-​of-​sight!

Every community ought to have a place like the Anderson Township Pub: a dark, cozy, cave-​like bar-​and-​grill that, except for the many flat-​screen TVs for sports-​watching, probably hasn’t changed much since 1982, when it opened. (In fact, it feels a bit older than that, which is a good thing.) And when I say ATP is dark, I mean dark: If you visit during daylight hours, the sunlight will stun you when you step outside. As with many places like ATP, the walls are loaded with photos of local sports figures and luminaries as well as ordinary folks. The long bar is festooned with the requisite white Christmas lights.
ATP has a short bar menu consisting of the usual fare: burgers, deli sandwiches, wings, nachos, and salads. Burger was relatively standard-​issue and big (eight ounces), but I must credit the kitchen for doing what many Cincinnati kitchens haven’t been able to do for me in recent months: properly cook a burger to order. Fries appear to be hand-​cut and are better than average.
Joints like ATP are a nice and needed antidote to the sterile, interchangeable chain wing joints and sports bars that gobble up more and more of the 21^st-​century suburban landscape. As far as I can tell, ATP is one of the few places of its type in the very suburban Anderson Township: It has the lived-​in comfort that, if you live in the community, will feel a bit like adjunct living quarters. And, with time, the community will probably value the ATP even more.

Wow. Where do I begin. I’ve been here several times before, but this will likely be the last. I was amazed the server had the audacity to hand me a bill at all, much less one for $ 42. My taco salad shell had probably been sitting in the closet for several years. The unadventurous iceberg lettuce salad within made me regret not visiting good ol Taco Bell for half the price. My girlfriend ordered the Caesar Chicken Salad, so when she was served a taco shell as well, I asked what she had ordered. Our server, Kathy (I know this because I had to ask HER name, not vice versa), confidently chimed «same thing as you.» Not. Her meal came after I had finished mine. Evidently, Caesar salad consists of iceberg lettuce, not romaine, and I’m sure the croutons were surprised that they were candidates for food, given they too had probably been wandering around the kitchen since the 1800s. I’m sorry, but if you’re going to suck at something, don’t serve it. I’ve had the burgers and wings here and they’re ok (a tad dry always). I really could have done better at. .. . McDonald’s. Sigh.

After attending Cincinnati Magazine’s Burger Bash in July, I wanted to branch out try more of the ranked burgers that I haven’t had. ATP served up their 8oz Federal Hill at Burger Bash and it was enough to make me want to visit for me. I’m not a person who likes a lot of fixings and toppings on my burger, because I want to taste the flavor of the meat so I went for the Telegraph Hill — all their burgers are delicious!
After much discussion with the server I decided on the onion rings while my friend got the fries and I’m glad I got the onion rings, they are great! The fries were soggy and nothing worth mentioning.
The atmosphere is that of a sports bar filled with locals. The outdoor seating was filled up when we visited and I can see why since the jukebox was a bit loud for table conversation. I’ll never understand why bars the need to make the music loud enough to be heard outside. Many venues are guilty of this and sooner I lose my hearing the less likely I’ll be to dine out.
Take a friend on Thursdays when it is buy one burger, get one half off.
