Judge Orders Clifton Hookah Bar to Permanently Close

A Hamilton County judge has ordered the Bohemian Hookah Cafe in Clifton to close permanently following a lawsuit with the City of Cincinnati.

The lawsuit, filed by the City of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati Board of Health in September, resulted in an Agreed Final Order between the city and the bar's owners.

The bar "will close and vacate 340 Ludlow Avenue on or before November 14, 2025."

Clifton Town Meeting President Ben Pantoja welcomed the news, stating that the bar had been a headache for the business district for the past two years.

Pantoja credited current Cincinnati City Councilman and candidate Mark Jeffreys with drawing attention to the issues surrounding the bar.
