Spend an afternoon on Main Street

Locals enjoy spending the weekends strolling along Old Milford's Main Street. “You could spend a whole day just stopping into the little shops and enjoying the food here,” says Ragle. This part of town is a true throwback. Striped awnings shade the sidewalks while small signs hang above storefronts announcing their wares. Most businesses here are housed in former historic buildings, dating back to the early 1900s. Little Miami Brewing Company is one of these go-to spots. Started by two Cincinnati natives, this brewery sits on the Little Miami River and regularly hosts concerts in their event center. For something to eat, The Governor, combines East Coast diner classics with global flavors and was featured on Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.” Their signature dish is the Mo’s Rice Bowl, which is topped with grilled halloumi cheese and a sunny egg. Another favorite spot for residents is The Book Matters, an independent bookstore on Main. For all of their daily necessities, folks can opt to head over to the River’s Edge shopping center where they'll find big box stores like Target and Walmart For groceries, there are also multiple Kroger’s located throughout the community.
