Melt Eclectic Cafe on Hamilton Avenue in Cincinnati’s Northside neighborhood has been a city cafe institution since it opened, building a menu around the eclectic scratch-made comfort food, creative sandwiches, and the from-scratch cafe plates that earn a Cincinnati neighborhood restaurant its loyal following in a community that values independent food culture over chain options. It appeared in Season 21, Episode 2 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Seriously Saucy,” which aired September 12, 2014. Guy Fieri found a Cincinnati cafe kitchen doing eclectic comfort food from scratch with the creative energy and quality that earns a neighborhood restaurant its destination reputation across the city.
