What happened after Man v. Food?

Casey Webb visited Arnold's Bar and Grill in downtown Cincinnati to try the Yo Mama burger, a wagyu beef patty topped with melted cheese, a fried-potato pancake made from the restaurant's own French fries, a sunny-side-up egg, and a patty of goetta, a Cincinnati-style sausage, all served on a toasted bun with chipotle aioli. Arnold's occupies a pair of adjoining buildings constructed in 1838 and is recognized as the oldest continuously operating bar in Cincinnati, with records showing a tavern running there since 1861. The business's own website remains active, and Everything Cincy's coverage of the July 2026 Cincinnati Burger Week names Arnold's among the participating restaurants, indicating the bar and grill continues to operate in its historic downtown location years after the episode aired.
