About Us
Welcome to Dilly Bistro, Bar & Bottle Shop!
Nestled in the charming National Historic Landmark Village of Mariemont, Ohio, Dilly is not just a restaurant but a landmark in itself, located just east of downtown Cincinnati. Starting as Dilly Deli in 1982, a beloved sandwich shop in Mariemont’s historic Old Town, we’ve since evolved into our current home in the vibrant Mariemont Strand since 1996.
Our Evolution
Embracing our new identity, we’ve transformed into a full-service American bistro, celebrating over 27 years in our current location. As part of our continual growth, we underwent a major renovation of our dining and bar areas in November 2016, embodying our new slogan, “Experience The Evolution.”
A Hub for Sports and Community
Dilly is proud to be the home of Xavier Coach Sean Miller’s live weekly radio show, bringing together sports, community, and great dining under one roof. This unique aspect adds to the dynamic and vibrant atmosphere of our establishment.
Craft Beer Pioneers
As one of the first bars in Cincinnati to serve craft beers, Dilly has consistently remained a top destination for beer enthusiasts. Our pioneering spirit in the beverage scene is a testament to our commitment to quality and variety.
The Bottle Shop
Adjacent to the restaurant, our Bottle Shop features an impressive and diverse selection of wines. Guests enjoy the unique option of selecting a bottle to savor at their table for a minimal corkage fee.
Live Music and Entertainment
Live music is an integral part of the Dilly experience. We are excited to continue this tradition, offering a vibrant lineup of performances. Check our events page for the latest schedule.
A Place for Everyone
From our welcoming patio to our renowned beer cheese, and from our lively bar to our engaging live music, Dilly offers something for everyone. Our dedication to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment has made us a staple in the community, beloved by locals and regulars who support our independent, locally-owned establishment.
Join us at Dilly to “Experience The Evolution” – a blend of history, culinary delight, community, and entertainment.
