Greater Cincinnati Independents

Greater Cincinnati Independents is a community of independently owned and operated restaurants. The Mission of Greater Cincinnati Independents is to celebrate, support and promote locally owned and operated independent restaurants by providing unique dining experiences for its patrons and collaborative services and benefits for it members. With the ever-growing rise of the chain restaurants, it is necessary for local restaurateurs to band together and raise awareness about original cuisine and local flavor. Cincinnati has some of the greatest independently owned and operated restaurants and it is time for diners to not only endorse these fantastic eateries but consciously seek them out! Cincinnati is a Home-Town proud city and it is time to take pride in the phenomenal opportunities for diners that await you through this chapter. Break the chain, eat original! As independent restaurateurs, we are a part of the community. We live and work in your community; we partake of all our community has to offer and we strive to make a difference in our communities through contributions of time and financial support. We can be seen on a daily basis working in our restaurants. Our guest appreciate being able to put a face with a name. Our restaurants help to make Cincinnati a great place to live and work. It is our hope that you take a moment to think about this important issue and support all those things that make Cincinnati unique, a source of pride and above all, a great city to live in. When you travel, look for the independent restaurants of your favorite city. Dine Originals America now has 20 chapters nationwide and a membership of over 700 great independent restaurants. Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you soon. Thank you, Annette Pfund-de Cavel President, Greater Cincinnati Independents
