Passage Lounge

601 Main doesn't seem like the most likely spot for a new bar IMO, but coming soon:

Yeah, they were hoping to be open by NYE, but instead they'll be opening sometime in mid-January. Should be very cool...will feature Downtown's first rooftop bar on the building's third level.

I saw that, too. Weird.

I think it is a pretty decent location though. Right next to parking in the 580 building and the square. It is also near several food choices, specifically NADA. I'm excited for a roof top bar finally.

This has as much a chance of making it as the Reds do winning the pennant. The folks that Passage wants to come are going to be scared off by the harmless city goers that wait for their bus whose stop is diagonally across the street from this place or the fact that it's away from all the action.

Passage Lounge is in a very great location that will also offer valet at the front door. Nada, Bootsys, and Righteous Room are just one block up. They already have over 700 fans on facebook without doing any promotion besides word of mouth. The people working on the project are dedicated young Cincinnati entrepreneurs that want to help make downtown the city center it's meant to be. It should be a success if they offer great service in an interesting atmosphere at a fair price.
