The Meeting Spot

Specialties

Located in the historic American Building on Central Parkway just moments from the Over-​The-​Rhine Gateway, courthouse and business district, The Meeting Spot was built from the ground up to provide local professionals with an escape from the daily office grind: A unique place where professionals feel inspired to get work done, have a meeting, and have an amazing time doing it.

In-​between meetings, teambuilding activities and brainstorming sessions, professionals can challenge each other to a friendly game of shuffleboard, foosball, pool, or even basketball (on a regulation net, of course) simultaneously recharging their batteries and building rapport with their colleagues.

History

Established in 2014.

Creating a getaway for professionals isn’t a new gig for owner Gary Green, the former mastermind behind The Dude Ranch (located near Kings Island), a City Slickers-​like spot that once hosted five companies a day conducting million-​dollar deals in-​between real cattle drives, roping classes and fishing.

«I saw a need for something similar downtown: a place where professionals can get out of their comfort zone, take advantage of a little privacy and make things happen,» he says.

Mission accomplished, says Mark Hyland, CEO and President of Cincinnati’s Masterpiece USA, a marketing services and execution company. «Our clients love doing business at The Meeting Spot because we accomplish our mission and we have fun doing it,» he says. «It’s probably one of the most productive meeting venues we’ve experienced. It’s worked so well for us, we just rented it out for the fifth time.»
