Make Room for Your Kind of Party

Party celebration with a full room of guests at Somerhaus in Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati

Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and retirement celebrations can each take a different shape here. Dining tables, lounge seating, a built-in bar, and a house sound system give you a starting point for a meal, a toast, or an evening of conversation.

The party pricing page lists evening, half-day, and full-day rentals, with rates and any bar minimums shown by day. Setup, decorating, and teardown need to fit inside the rental window.

Bring your decoration ideas to the team and check the guidelines before making plans. For food, choose a licensed caterer or explore the preferred vendor list; the venue has a prep kitchen for finishing dishes.

Perfect Wedding Welcome Party

Somerhaus was the perfect place for our wedding welcome party in Nov 2024. We loved the plant vibes and that the event space needed very little decor to look complete. Beth was great to work with and Emma and Dusty took great care of us during the event...

How much time is included for setup and teardown?

Setup and teardown times are built into your rental period. Additional setup or teardown time can be purchased at an hourly rate if needed assuming the schedule permits.
