Review Hitching Post Restaurant - Cincinnati

Ok first off they do not have the best chicken in the world, but it is good. My husband really enjoyed his sandwich and gave it 4.5 stars. My chicken dinner was good, but the mashed potatoes and Garvey was the best part for me. My daughter said her chicken ranch sandwich was good. Our waitress was great and it was a nice homey atmosphere. We will come back another time to try some pie.

So, first of all this place makes delicious chicken and waffles and you will definitely not go wrong trying that. Also, they have a wonderful goetta and cheese omelette that I would recommend giving a shot as well. The servers were nice and the atmosphere is great as well. Overall a great place for breakfast or brunch and I will definitely return!

The fried chicken here is delicious, as are the potato pancakes and the pie. The fried chicken is how it should be- basic and delicious, crispy and juicy. The mashed potatoes leave something to be desired. The green beans are canned, and that's okay for the price. Personally, I like dipping the potato pancakes in the applesauce. It was my first time experiencing fried green tomatoes and they tasted excellent. I feel the portion size definitely could have been larger for the price, though. The atmosphere is very basic country kitchen, moat likely not remodeled since it was opened. It's not a romantic place, it's not a fancy place, but the food is good and the decor isn't trying to be something it isn't. Hyde Park Hitching Post does not serve alcohol. It gives you the feeling it should be "home cooking," but the sides have room for improvement. The service is friendly.

We enjoyed this place !!!!! The food came out in a timely manner, my husband ordered the lunch special double deluxe hamburger, my son got the grilled cheese and fruit, and for myself I got their famous chicken slaw and mashed potatoes ! All of the food was delicious. The only hold back from getting five stars for me was the decorations above our table where we were eating were covered in dust, and the floor in the section that we were sitting in was filthy salad al over the floor and trash. The restaurant was not busy at all because we visited at 1-1:30. I think a little touch of clean up and this place would get 5 stars.

The service was nice, the food was delicious, especially if you like home cooked-tasting food. The cheesecake looked so good, but it was a little thick and plasticy, at least me and my family thought. The fried chicken, the sandwiches, and the country fried steaks were just the bomb!

I've never had anything bad here, everything has been very good with excellent service. The food is always good and the pies are excellent to. I just had breakfast there and I had baby calves liver and onions with Amish potato salad and coleslaw also a dinner roll . A great meal by itself . Also My favorite thing is chicken livers and chicken gravy with a dinner roll. Enjoy

It is exactly what it tries to be. An old-fashioned diner with comforting and simple homestyle cooking. Nothing about this place is over-complicated or fancy. Nothing is intimidating or pretentious. If you want a simple meal (or slice of pie) that tastes like someone's gran just whipped it up for you, this is where you want to go. I can't say whether or not the fried chicken is the best. I'm no expert. But who cares? I can say it is good enough that you will be too busy eating to worry about it's ranking. I also recommend the country fried steak and the fried green tomatoes!

Very homely atmosphere. The wait staff makes you feel right at home. Lots of good choices on the menu. I tried the chicken wings with the sweet sauce and was very pleased

Love this place ! The prices are fare , food is good & has a sitting at Grandma's house feel . The country fried steak is so good & what I always get. They have a rewards program that's better then more known places. Great local favorite.

This is for myself the absolute best breakfast menu ever. Love the home fries, the staff is absolutely perfect Have only found this type of service in the staff in very good places in Europe. Very clean neat and cozy family oriented establishment. It is very very good and I highly feel everyone to try it at least once. Don't feel you would be disappointed. Atmosphere is very cozy, clean, family oriented.

The double decker and fries was awesome!! Turkey and bacon. My lunch partner (who wished to remain nameless), had chicken breast that was fried to order. It looked like a pigeon breast and was dry dry dry!! The claim to fame is "World's best chicken". Her sides were good. Ambiance was great. Service was both friendly and efficient. Comfort food at its almost finest. Great prices.

Never have had a bad experience here. Great staff and food. I'm glad they added the chicken & waffles to their menu full time. I'd probably avoid their entry-level burger, (go to the dozens of awesome Cincy burger spots), though I highly recommend HP if you're looking for comfort food.

Tasty, simple, non-pretentious food. Went for brunch, got a BLT and added extra bacon - I was very satisfied. Everybody else in my party (3 out of 4 of us were first timers) was also happy with their orders. Despite having a discussion about how the chicken was supposed to be tasty, we all forgot to order chicken! I'll have to try it next time because I will definitely return.

That fried chicken is among the best I can remember in years. My friend had the roast turkey and said it was excellent. Service was quick and very friendly without being "fake". Menu appears to have many tantalizing options. I am already looking forward to going back. Too bad I will probably never stray from that chicken. :-)

Really does live up to the "Worlds Best Fried Chicken" in which it advertises. Chicken is flavorful, juicy, and cooked to order so it is always fresh. Sides left a little to be desired, but the chicken is definitely meant to be the star of the show. Overall, this location had a very "small town diner" feel, as there were regulars coming and going as I was there. All of the waitresses were very polite and I had no problems with the speed or friendliness of service. Their menu has quite a few options for any type of meal, if you arent looking for chicken. Aside from the sides, the restrooms could have been cleaner, which would have been my only other complaint.

Awesome food! Our group ordered country fried steak, beef liver & onions, fried chicken, and open faced beef sandwich. Extremely flavorful and texture was spot on! Whatever you do, be sure to get the cabbage as one of your sides...holy cow...delicious!! Met the owner Peggy, who was warm and welcoming. Our server Jess was a sweetheart who really knew her stuff! They made us feel like old friends rather than customers. Finished off with a slice of their homemade pies. Yum yum!

Was in the mood for a hamburger and Hitching Post popped up on some recommendations. Wouldn't go back just for the burger but the other food on the menu looked good. Lots of homestyle choices like meat loaf and pot roast. Very few other guests and the ones that were there seemed to be regulars. Definitely an older group of guests. Overall it was clean and comfortable. Food came out quick and was tasty, just nothing remarkable.

The chicken was crispy outside and juicy inside! The potatoes were real and the coleslaw was delicious! I recommend extra gravy because it tasted so good. The staff took a minute to warm up to us but once they did they were great! Great Homemade Coconut Cream Pie as well!

I go to lunch here every Wednesday with a group of retired friends and I always look forward to it because of the great food and excellent service. Our group has tried many of the lunch specials and all are very good. I am partial to the tuna salad and BLT and always get a cup of soup as well. The soups are especially good; chicken with rice, beef vegetable and split pea are my favorites. As for service, we usually have Debbie as our waitress and she not only is a great waitress but has a pleasant manner and is great to chat with. She has become as much a part of the group as any of us. Keep up the good work HP!!
