Our Story

Sip on delicious cocktails, innovative craft mocktails and a wide variety of beer at RJ Taproom. The bar features 48 taps of local and regional craft beer, as well as well-known domestic and international beers. Enjoy the craft RJ Distillery line of spirits, including some that are distilled in-house at Element Eatery.

Owner Bob Slattery acquired and rebranded Robert James Distillery in 2019 with a mission to streamline, distill and blend excellent small batch spirits. Then, the team opened RJ Cinema in Eastgate, a one-of-a-kind cinema, distillery and taproom. Now, managing and operating the taproom at Element Eatery is the next step in introducing RJ Distillery spirits to Greater Cincinnati.
