Brewery
Nestled in the historic Old Market district, Upstream Brewing Company is a must-visit for beer enthusiasts and food lovers alike. Established in 1996, this pioneering brewery occupies a charming turn-of-the-century firehouse and boasts an inviting atmosphere with both indoor seating and a unique rooftop patio that offers stunning views of downtown Omaha. Guests can savor handcrafted beers brewed on-site, including their classic pale ale and innovative options like the Eternity IPA.
Cool environment, good beer selection and drinks. Old firehouse definitely worth stopping in. Standard pub style food with vegan options. They make their own bread, which is unique.

Very cute place downtown. Beer was good. Love being able to get a flight to sample multiple brews. Our party was disappointed that there wasn’t a “sour” beer. I was happy with the beers I sampled. Food was just okay. Tomato basil soup was 5 stars, but the spinach artichoke dip was only two stars due to being mostly melted butter. The adult grilled cheese was okay - the inclusion of apple butter onto the sandwich is great in theory, but I feel there was too much on the sandwich overpowering the cheese and bread.
When they’re on a date recently and was pleasantly impressed. We have been at this place before we sat inside. Their selection of regular food was nothing special to me. However, this time around when we went, we had an outside patio seating, which was very pleasant and very nice. It allowed us to observe Omaha. It allowed us to enjoy that outside perspective. The food was good this time around we ordered appetizers chicken wings were absolutely great. The sauce was not just splattered on the wings, and they seem like they were actually marinated in the buffalo sauce which added to the flavor tremendously. We also ordered fish and chips and after having Gordon Ramsay‘s fish and chips, I was not expecting a whole lot from that. not because it’s not a name brand food or so but mainly because a lot of places in the United States are a hit or miss more miss with the fish and chips than hit. Well, I can say that upstream brewing company knows how to do their fish and chips and they were hands-down absolutely delicious. We would come back here for specifically that meal again.. There are seasonal brews and beers were great. We enjoyed every ounce that. I highly recommend this place.
A good selection of some very good beers--I especially liked the Dundee Scottish Ale. The brewery is in an old 2 story brick building with tons of character and comfortable seating. The second floor has pool and game tables in a large open bar area.
There is a large selection of food options from appetizers to sandwiches to entrees. The burgers and fries were very good, The Rueben, although tasty, was served on some very thick, hard bread. I ended up eating the meat and sauerkraut, but left most of the bread on the plate.
Service was good and the food came out very quickly. After we settled the bill, we felt rushed by the waitstaff although a few of us were still talking as we finished our drinks. There were plenty of empty tables and no line of people waiting to be seated. Sometimes it nice to sit and finish your drinks without pressure to leave.
I visited Upstream Brewing on the last night of a business trip and chose to sit at the bar. I ordered a Saison Botanique, which had a delightful saison bite with strong floral notes—I was thoroughly impressed. After sampling a few of their other beers, I returned to the Saison Botanique to pair with my dinner. For my meal, I chose the salmon burger with fries. The salmon burger was good but not exceptional, as it felt somewhat dry, though I still enjoyed it. The fries, however, were outstanding, with a perfect crunch and excellent preparation. The service during the meal was adequate but not remarkable, much like the salmon burger. Overall, the Saison Botanique and fries were the highlights of the experience, while everything else met my expectations. I would gladly return on my next trip to Omaha. Rounding up from a 4.5 to a 5 since it’s a brewery and the beer was delicious.
The burgers are nothing great. We sat outside, where there are plenty of bugs smaller than the black specks in the ranch, which was quite excellent actually. The bugs bite. This grew especially tiresome while we waited 10 minutes in the wind after paying to get our cards back. This was my first time in the Omaha Old Market, but I’m sure there’s better food around.
Went on a Saturday afternoon to eat and watch husker game. Our waitress Lizzy was totally amazing!!! Attentive but not over attentive, let us watch the entire and continued to provide service. Food was very good and the smells of fresh baked bread were great ...so my party said...I was unable to smell it. Absolutely would recommend this place and if you get Lizzy as your server you will not be disappointed!
Just stopped in for a drink. Despite being fairly busy, I got great service and bartenders were on top of everything. Good selection of beers. Food menu looked great too, but I'd just eaten elsewhere.

The #1 thing about this place is the location right by the baseball stadium and CHI Arena. #2 is good service. Staff are knowledgeable, attentive, quick. #3 is the environment. It is fine. Seems friendly and all. Last on the list is the food. It is fine. Not great. Just fine. The buns are good. The burgers are fine. The fried chicken is cooked properly but relatively tasteless. It is all just... fine... It is a bit pricey for average food but I think that is because of location. People having drinks seem very content so the bar is probably good. I rarely drink so can't say. However, the Pepsi mix is actually outstanding. I could possibly swap that out for the #1 thing. Because of the location I plan to be back.
Good service. Good cocktails. Good beer selection. Food came out fast. The bartender was the perfect amount of attentive and she made great drinks. She made a fellow female comfortable in a different city.
Those used to Washington, DC drink prices will be pleasantly surprised.
The staff was accommodating and pleasant.
Thanks for a good Omaha trip!
The food is outstanding here. I got the Root Burger (not usually my thing) and it was outstanding. All the toppings were so fresh. Great job. I got the potato salad as a side and it was also outstanding.
Prices are fair for what you get. Presentation of food could be better but who cares when it is outstanding and you have great staff serving you.
In the times of Beyond and Impossible meat, they serve a properly vegan patty from quinoa and beets. 4 stars for the taste and one more for choosing to make a vegan patty. The fries were also well-seasoned and crisp. I would definitely return when I am in town.
Came for lunch - food was pretty good. Potato salad and chicken strips were the best items. Steak way overcooked and overpriced. Service was friendly but slow. They need a bartender so the servers can focus on serving tables and not doing everything themselves. Wanted to sit upstairs but didn’t see the entrance/access and there was no one to ask so we just sat down. Inside was a nice, bright space. Relaxed atmosphere. Good beer and cocktails but getting more was difficult because of our server needing to take care of way too many people/areas.
Found Blatt Beer on Yelp. Had a bunch of stars and they weren't wrong. Had the sausage plate, excellent!! Wife had fish and chips. She loved it. Next time in Omaha will be returning.
It was a very nice day so it was nice to sit near the open window... it had a nice patio feel. The food was delicious. Served hot with everything we ordered. The service was excellent. Our waitress was so friendly and knowledgeable of the menu and drinks. Get the Dixie Chicken 🔥

The restaurant provides exceptional service with attentive staff, making every visit enjoyable. In addition to creative pies and pasta, the pizzeria also offers a variety of cocktails, beer, and wine.
We have been in for dinner before but today was our first time visiting for Sunday brunch and it did not disappoint. All of our food was excellent with big portions, no one left hungry! I had the breakfast sandwich and it was delicious. My husband had the biscuits and gravy and he loved it. Both of my kids ordered the French toast. Highly recommend! Bonus is that they take reservations, which was perfect for our large party that included extended family.

Great place for Saturday brunch. They offer unique dishes that are well thought out and delicious. We had the short rib breakfast burrito and the chicken tinga breakfast bowl. Both were wonderful.
We went to dinner and our server was absolutely amazing. Totally spacing her name but maybe Grace? Anyways, she was the vibe. Our drinks were 10/10. The food… not my fav. My spicy honey chicken sandwich was not at all spicy. It was so sweet, too sweet. The bacon on the sandwich was 10/10 I would recommend. My boyfriend got the special, he said it was good, we went with his dad who ordered the pizza, it wasn’t anything fantastic. I would for sure go back for drinks and maybe their apps…
Food was very tasty and we received excellent service. My only complaint is that the cocktails were VERY weak.
Having visited this area only twice - Pitch was a favorite place to frequent during my vacation/work trip! Absolutely recommend for light food or delicious entrees. The cocktails and beer are top notch as well!
Stayed at a hotel near Pitch so it was an easy stop for dinner. The place looked super cool from the outside so we had pretty high expectations. Seems like a popular 'happy hour' spot. We were able to enjoy the patio while also watching a NFL game. For the two of us, we ordered an appetizer, a whole pizza, and three drinks. That was a good amount of food for the two of us. We ended up taking 1/3 of the pizza to go. Bill was over $100.
I am torn, I liked the place, but didn't "love" it. Here's why....
1) Order the crab cake appetizer - portion size was very hardy and presentation was great. The Asian inspired slaw served with it was amazing, but the crab cake was...blah. Probably my least favorite crab cake I've ever had (and I order it a lot). There was a peanut texture that just caught me off guard. I like spice, but this might be a bit too spicy for some. Overall, can't recommend a crab cake that is outshined by the slaw served with it.
2) $30 for a pizza! I was willing to pay $30, obviously, but was expecting it to completely blow me away. It was good...but not $30 good.
3) Inconsistant cocktail. I ordered a mule and it was mostly ice with a nice taste - couldn't taste the alcohol. I ordered a second (same) cocktail and it was the opposite. Little ice and overwhelming alcohol taste. I wish I could have mixed the two together. The bartenders need to get on the same page, I guess.
Overall, it was a good spot close to where we were staying. I would probably check out another place the next time I was in Omaha.
I came in for my birthday with my family and the experience was great! Lovely atmosphere and great food, the staff was very accommodating especially when I knew at times our party might have been in the way lol. Our server, Julia was fantastic. She was personable, super knowledgeable about menu items/details, and gave great recommendations. As someone who is a server currently, this is definitely the place to go, and ask for Julia!
First and foremost if you like Chicken Wings, start your meal off with an order of the Rosemary Sweet & Spicy Wings. The flavor of the sauce is simply incredible and they always come out cooked to perfection. This time around we went with a couple of new items. The Beef Stroganoff was good, it wasn’t blow my socks off good tho. I was really impressed with the crab cakes, they were cooked well and had great flavor. The steak in the coconut curry sauce was phenomenal. The sauce had such great flavor and the steak was great. Also if you are in the area on the weekend and want brunch, this place has a very large menu full of great options.

Mexican restaurant
Nestled in the vibrant NoDo district, Hook and Lime is a modern eatery that brings a delightful twist to traditional Mexican cuisine. This seafood-centric spot specializes in innovative tacos and small plates, making it an ideal destination for food enthusiasts looking to explore unique flavors. Their menu features standout items like Beer & Chile Braised Chicken Tacos and Sweet Potato with Walnut Chorizo Vegan Tacos, alongside refreshing salads and sides.
I really enjoyed my experience at Hook and Lime! I thought my vegetarian Impossible & Potato empanadas were delicious. I thought there were a couple of good vegetarian options - that I’d love to come back again and try out! I would say my crispy sweet potato tacos were okay. I liked the idea…but the texture and flavor perhaps could be improved. I think my fellow table mates generally enjoyed their meal. Somewhat Americanized for their taste. But I enjoyed the flavors of my dishes!! Worth trying out!

We visited on 5/25/25 before we went over to the Big 10 Championship baseball game where Nebraska was playing UCLA. Service was incredibly SLOW!! I get it that they’re close to the stadium, but hire more help for these days or get food out more quickly. We were there about 90 minutes total.
The prices are really expensive for the quality of food you get. I travel often and live in San Antonio and the food quality did not match the price.
It was bland. I’ve found a similar trend with other Mexican restaurants like this…trying to be fancy but really mess up the food and make it tasteless. The chips are thick and I prefer a lighter chip. Plus the tortilla was cold and needed to be cooked/warmed up. Give me a good hole in the wall Mexican restaurant with authentic food with flavor, not this.
I would not come back here again. I’m kind of shocked it has such high reviews.
My mom, fiancé and I came in yesterday morning for the first time and we really enjoyed our visit here. Our server Pono B was attentive, friendly, over all by far the best service we’ve had in a long time. The staff was friendly they all made frequent stops to our table. The food was fresh, my drink was on point, their 3 homemade salsas hit every note. Over all delicious! We will come back and we highly recommend.
I would give Hook and Lime 10 stars if I could. Not only are the food and drinks phenomenal, but also the staff. They are so friendly and accommodating. They helped us get through a meltdown our toddler was having. Beyond all that, the restaurant is extremely clean and well kept. The seared tuna is our favorite. The homemade sauces are packed with flavor. Drinks are strong. We love this place and will recommend it to everyone moving forward.
If you’re looking for a decent Mexican restaurant, this is it. We got enchiladas with green sauce, chicken sandwich and churros and chocolate for the desert. Everything was very good. I really loved my enchiladas. It’s a nice cozy place with good interior and the server was very helpful. He explained every dish with knowledge and patience. Definitely coming back:)
The service here was absolutely awesome — friendly, attentive, and fast, even on a busy day. The food matched the service in quality — everything we tried was fantastic. The fish tacos were a standout (especially impressive for Omaha, where fresh seafood isn’t exactly the claim to fame). And I couldn’t resist the churro — it was too good to pass up.
Overall, Hook & Lime Cantina delivered a great dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Came here before a concert and dined outside. Food was great along with the atmosphere. Service was amazing. Very quick and efficient on a busy night. We will be coming back!
First time in, chose the pick 3 tacos. All 3 were absolutely delicious!! The portion size of each taco was more than enough!! Sweet potato, Seared Tuna, & Smoked Fable. Smoke fable was 🔥
Stopped in before Mihali @Slowdown we will be back most certainly!!!

I wandered in for a drink on a Sunday afternoon, having no idea how fabulous this place is. From the giant cured blocks of ice, the insane bourbon selection, the crazy good service to the creative and inventive Pokémon cocktail menu this place does not disappoint. The adorable female bartender is so knowledgeable and patient with the inevitable questions that come with the complex menu. Highly recommend!!
We wanted to try some unique cocktails, and this place did not disappoint. The appetizers we ordered perfectly complemented the drinks. The service was fantastic—energetic and attentive. Overall, this lively and fun cocktail bar in the downtown area is a must-try!
Really cool place. We came into town last night and were looking for a place to eat and enjoy a good cocktail. Man were we pleasantly surprised we stumbled into this gem. Our bartender was amazing and she made us a mean Old Fashioned with Redemption Rye. There were only 4 menu items available. We did come in the last hour they were open. But both items were good. The buffalo chicken dip and the charcuterie board were just what we needed to go with our Old Fashioned. But it gets better! They have a Pokémon-themed menu. I believe they do different themes every month. This was so cool. Definitely glad we stumbled in here! The service and ambiance were great! Please stop in if you are in this part of town!
Only problem I had was the kitchen closed before I got here at 10:30 pm everything else was great the pics I posted only showed a fraction of there huge selection of alcohol wow. There's so many different types of alcohol the bartender has to get on a stool to reach them all. I had an old fashion it was great. Will come here again hopefully when the kitchen is open
Excellent old fashioned. If you enjoy cocktails, definitely check this place out, tons of different liquors. I didn't eat, just had drinks.
Summer strolling through Omaha led us straight to this absolute gem. We spotted the rainbow “All Are Welcome Here” sticker on the door and knew instantly—this was our kind of spot. 🌈💫
Inside, we were greeted by two lovely bartenders who glowed with good vibes and walked us through their Pride drink menu (lucky us—it was the final week!). And then—hold onto your Poké Balls—the pièce de résistance…
THE POKÉMON DRINK MENU. 🧃✨
Each drink is its own character, with the option to evolve. Yes, evolve. I wanted to catch them ALL, people! 😂🔥
We wrapped the night sipping on Lewis Hamilton’s alcohol-free tequila (because balance!) and swapping stories with the crew behind the bar.
Mercury is magic. Inclusive, inventive, and full of sparkle.
10/10 would thunderbolt back again ⚡💛
Excellent food and service. One of the best gin and tonics I've ever had. House made tonic. The pasta dishes have house made pasta and are scrumptious. If they have the Tres Leches offered for dessert, get it. Not overly drenched and a very nice version of a great dessert. Fia was an excellent server.

I hosted a bridal shower at Corkscrew and everything was perfect! The wine and food was fabulous, the staff was incredible and so helpful, and Jessica and her team were so wonderful throughout the planning stage. Parking is tough in Blackstone but they provided maps and info to make it easy and convenient for all of our party attendees. We loved everything so much at the shower that we ended up visiting two more times in the same weekend while we were all in from out of town. The ambiance on the patio is awesome with the fire pits and cozy seating too. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Such a fun little place. My favorite part was chatting with & getting to know the gentleman that was taking care of me. I wish I would have gotten his name, because he was SOOO welcoming and friendly. Just good vibes all around. He had a backwards hat on and curly hair. Please give this guy a raise!! :)
Loved our server "Shay". The food was yummy, we had the mac and cheese, the salmon dish and a charcuterie board. Everyone loved their drinks, the Frozen Rose was a favorite 😊 It was a little dark where they sat our party, it was a work happy hour event so we didn't need ambiance 😊
This location in Blackstone is Much Better than the Rock brook location! Hannah is an absolute treasure and takes care of her customers with an attention to detail that is unheard of. She sent us some watermelon jam that complimented our brie perfectly! She also has the perfect spirit to deal with customers! The manager, I believe his name was Preston? Was very friendly and welcoming when we arrived on the patio. The patio in Rock brook either needs a through scrubbing or the water feature needs a drain. The ambience is great if you bring your own nose plugs. Kudos to Blackstone location for not embracing a water feature. Thank you for an enjoyable afternoon after an unpleasant experience at Rock brook.
Hannah & Aaron always take the best care of us. - so attentive & accommodating. Corkscrew is our go to place whether it be a crisp fall night or you need a refreshing cocktail on a hot summer day. H & A both have the best attitude & have great recommendations when I want to be adventurous and try something new. Variety of delicious apps - try the Spinach artichoke dip!!
We came in hun.gry. and left with boxes. The food was great but there's one big reason we'll be back: the frosé 😍
We started with the cheese board and devoured every bite. Then we shared the smoked salmon bruschetta – highly recommend. We also shared the chicken pesto flatbread and the Cubano panini. We'll definitely be back for more!
How did I not know this place boasts not only great wine and cheese but the food is delicious? We were not expecting this high caliber of cuisine. Everything we tried was really good as well and the exceptional service. We will return again and again.
Went here for a wine tasting and ended up pleasently surprised the knowledge of the sommelier knew about different regions outside the U.S. The food was excellent and was very fresh. Had the Cubano panini and priscutto banquet. Usually not a fan of pickles but on the Cubano they were very crisp and had a nice acidic taste with the creamy flavor of the sauce. They also had a good selection of wine, little sections here and there from all over. Their main selection was cabernet sauvignons from California, but overall good.

Loved everything about this restaurant. Service was wonderful, food was amazing and the wine list was unique and well thought out. Mediterranean influenced. Definitely go for happy hour! All the tapas plates were well worth it.
Very cool and interesting place. I had a hard time finding the place so I gave them a call and they were very helpful. The lady even came out to find me. Drinks were pretty good and the vibe was great. 👍

Nestled in La Vista, Pint Nine Brewing Company is a delightful gem in the Omaha beer scene that has quickly garnered a loyal following among locals. As one of the newer breweries in the area, it offers an inviting atmosphere where visitors can enjoy both year-round and seasonal brews.

A great brewery to grab a cold beer and some snacks. It's conveniently located next to Kros Strain, so there are plenty of beer options to choose from. They usually have a food truck on-site if you're looking for something more than just light snacks.

Pint Nine Brewery is a great local spot with a lot to offer. The space is clean and welcoming, with a laid-back atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and enjoy a good beer. There’s plenty of indoor seating and a nice patio area for when the weather’s nice. The staff is friendly and helpful, and service has always been solid on my visits.
The beer selection is excellent, with a wide variety of styles that cater to different tastes — whether you’re into IPAs, lagers, or something a bit more experimental. You can grab a pint, a flight, or even pick up some beer to go, which is a nice bonus if you want to take a few favorites home.
They also have a good selection of merch like shirts, hats, and glassware — all well-designed and reasonably priced. The restrooms are clean, and they often have a food truck parked outside, which makes grabbing a bite easy. If the food truck isn’t your thing, they also allow you to bring in outside food, which adds to the flexibility.
Overall, Pint Nine offers a consistently good experience. Great beer, great vibe
Great Brewery, Great Beer, Great service! It's right next door to Kros Strain. Both breweries are good. This is a must stop! I wasn't going to drink much tonight because I have to fly early and I took a 4 pack to go good! 🍻👍
Always a nice place for a beer. Very good variety, friendly service. Food truck on some evenings.
Always love going to Pint Nine Brewing. They have the best beer and staff!
Friendly staff, they let me sample a few beers before purchasing one. Good food truck outside, you should know that they do not always have food. But the beers are great, the atmosphere is simple, which I appreciate
This place is Solid! With nice beers, fun atmosphere and Great Bartender (Liz). One of the Owners, Lea Watson was knowledgable, fun to chat with and even gave my friend a private tour! I am opening a brewery back at home and Lea really cared about what we were trying to get going and even offered to stay in touch to help in the future. In my opinion, between the staff, beer, cool merchendise and overall WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT. This brewery is a GREAT Addition to Breweries in Nebraska and the Omaha area and someplace I WILL RETURN TOO in the future. Thanks for being Awesome:)
This is a great place. Very nice people and dog loving. This place makes me wish I lived in Omaha. Our dog totally approved.

Monolithic Brewing is a small-batch brewery that focuses on delivering high-quality, well-crafted beers exclusively in their taproom. They are known for pushing boundaries and taking chances with their beer selection. The brewery also offers a variety of tasty and ever-changing beers, with the Mosaic Broken Hearts being highly recommended for IPA lovers. In addition to their great beer selection, they also offer a unique house burger that stands out as one of the best in town.
I rarely give 5's, but this place I thought deserved it. Went in around noon on Saturday specifically to try their burgers. First off, I tried their Bavarian Pretzel with a pepper jack beer cheese. It was good, worthy of an appetizer for those who choose it. That usually depends on the cheese, and it was enjoyable. The burger I ordered was the Bob's burger with Country Bob's sauce. I was hoping it was one of those special sauces similar to thousand island, but I was completely wrong. It's a mix of BBQ and a steak sauce...and I gave it a shot even though I wasn't in the mood for a BBQ burger. Turns out I LOVED it. Okay, enjoyed it, I'll keep the superlatives to a minimum. Didn't know prior to showing up, but burgers/sandwiches come with chips vs fries. Kind of a bummer, but if I read that I would have known prior. Psst...Monolithic....pssst....roll out some fry options in the future. What else? It's a large place, wasn't crowded when I was there but the Nebraska game was still an hour or two away. They have outside patio, their chairs aren't the crappy normal hipster bar metal chairs that some butts just don't fit in. Service was great...I'll def go back there.

Beers are amazing, especially the IPAs. The food menu is absolutely killer as well! Atmosphere is great and it's a awesome hangout spot for 1 or 10! Highly recommend visiting and enjoying a beer with Todd and Shane. The bartenders are also very friendly and knowledgeable 🫶
Great brewery! Staff was wonderfully friendly and helpful, brewpub was clean, it's a nice size, and there's a beautiful patio, too. On top of that, the beer was excellent. Their Oktoberfest is one of the top 5 Oktoberfest beers I've had; I was really impressed! Oh, and the food was good, too! The menu is modest, but the quality was there. The soft pretzel was one of the best I've had in a while.
The one and only (slight) downside is that the space is concrete floors with hard walls and open ceilings. When it gets busy, it can get loud. If you're sensitive to that, go when it's less busy, get a table away from the middle of the restaurant, or sit on the patio.
Overall, this has become on of my favorite breweries in Omaha. Highly recommended! 👍👍
This was our first Nebraska Passport stop for the 2024 season, and it was a great find. I wish we would have planned a little better so we could have tried out the dinner fare, but the after dinner drinks were pretty good. Margaritas of various flavors, P.O.G, blood orange, and the standard variety did not disappoint. The wait staff was great and happily talked us through all of what they had going on here. It was a great visit!
oh mannnn! they were having a party for National Hotdog Day so there was a food truck behind the building serving Hot Dogs, and I got the spiciest one possible. it was one hell of a dog. thanks a lot Shane!! 🌭 ♥️
The craft beers here are amazing. My favorite is the pink lemonade and the watermelon. I attended the national hot dog day. Monolithic Brewing partnered with Willie's hot dog. These were delicious. The brewery has plenty of space inside, but I enjoy the patio. Nice view of the pond and water fountains. Service here is friendly and quick. Great place to hang out with friends.
We stopped for a post disc golf beer at Monolith after driving in from KC. After sitting at the bar and enjoying a few sips of delicious shandy, one of the proprietors struck up a convo with my wife and I. Todd was super friendly, and let us sample the special brew for Jorts Fest the following weekend. Wonderful! Then we were graciously invited to tour the brewing operation. It was remarkable to me that all water is filtered and then has minerals combined back in to mimic water from other regions of the globe depending on what style of beer is being brewed. After learning I was born and raised in New Mexico, I was enthusiastically offered a sample of Hatch green chili salsa they were developing for an event later that month. Also fantastic. If you’re roasting green in house I’m a fan for life. From here on out I’ll be returning for refreshments any time I am visiting Omaha.
Came for the street corn... Will be back for the well-rounded selection. They have such a thoughtful menu; there's something for whatever you're craving. I love that it's a family-friendly establishment because parents need a beer, too 🤣
Service was really good and fast. You can tell everyone partakes in every ticket just to get the food and drink to you as fast as possible.

Wicked Rabbit is a hidden gem in Omaha, located behind a small shop facade. This speakeasy-style bar offers an immersive experience with its vintage decor and attentive staff. The dimly lit, swanky atmosphere and leather seating create a classy yet mysterious ambiance. The cocktail menu goes beyond the traditional bar experience, featuring classic concoctions with a twist and inventive creations.
Genuinely one of the best bars I have ever been to. Compact space, so no overcrowding. Speakeasy cool without being cliche. Abby and Michael are the most phenomenal hosts. We had the best time with the best service and arguably the best drinks in town. You can’t go wrong with a Pink Pony Club! 15/10 recommend.

This awesome little speak easy is hidden so well behind a small liquor store. You would literally have no clue it is there. A shelf full of liquor bottles opens up into this epics place. A fun stop and a classy place with excellent service and some very fancy options. They make some amazing drinks, but do it in a very fun way! Definitely expect fancy and even one of a kind concoctions. Very comfortable leather type seating. When you finish your drinks you slip out the back into a well lit alley. Definitely worth the stop!!!
Wicked Rabbit in Omaha is hands down one of the coolest cocktail spots I’ve been to. I took three of my coworkers here, and the entire experience felt like we stepped into a hidden gem. From the secretive entrance to the moody, speakeasy style atmosphere, it’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel like you’re in on something special.
I had the Old Fashioned Smoking Jacket, and it was phenomenal perfectly balanced, smooth, and served with just the right touch of flair. You can tell the bartenders here take their craft seriously; every drink that came to our table looked and tasted amazing.
Between the atmosphere, the presentation, and the quality of the cocktails, Wicked Rabbit is an easy 5 star spot. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Omaha.
This place was so AWESOME! We had such a great time, and the drinks were the best I'd ever had anywhere. I had the The Zombie drink
We happened to trip on this treasure and we are glad we did. Wonderful, unique, fun, and tasty cocktails served by a knowledgeable and thoughtful staff. The ambiance is impeccable and well thought out, with little touches that play perfectly into the speakeasy vibe. Put this on your list when you are in Omaha.
what a terrific find! i was in town for work and really admired the architecture and vibe of omaha... a local colleague suggested we take a walk and was super casual about the reveal. guy at the door was perfectly in character (or maybe he's just a dour fellow). i'm a recent convert to the old fashioned, and this place has a really good one. lovely setting, good decor, and the service was warm and genial.
I'd give this a TEN for atmosphere if I could- so cool! When we stepped into the front shop area, we weren't sure we were in the right place. We were led back through a speakeasy door to a low-lit intimate seating area.
They will hand you a book filled with craft cocktails-- we had the Palermo and Saturn drinks which were very good.
The Saturn was one of the drinks they light on fire before you drink it, which is also super fun.
This place was small and I imagine more crowded on a warmer night. Definitely worth a stop!
A very cool speakeasy-style lounge in the downtown area. The hidden door adds a wonderful touch, making for a unique and exciting entry into the small but beautifully designed lounge and bar. We tried a few cocktails, and each one was distinct yet delicious. Overall, it was a fun experience, definitely worth visiting at least once.

affordable
Mexican restaurant
Copal is a restaurant in which diners can enjoy unique mexican cuisine, including tacos and birria. The restaurant also offers great service and affordable prices. Margaritas are superb, as well as the fajitas and birria tacos. The guacamole unfortunately was not very fresh, but overall this restaurant is definitely worth checking out!
We ate at Copal for the first time a few weeks ago for a family members birthday. We had the backroom reserved, and so had the room to ourselves. The service was great. We had to remind the server to get a few things, but it was a busy weekend, so that is to be expected. Our party of 10 and 2 kids ordered an array of different items, and everyone enjoyed their meals. We also got a few different alcoholic drinks - cantarito, house margarita, and Paloma all of which were also very good. Would definitely return!

went this restaurant and had a great time. They had a lot of options, and everything tasted really good.
The Vegetable Fajitas were cooked just right and came with a tasty sauce. The Cheese Enchiladas were covered in a delicious green sauce that made them extra special.
I also liked the Vegetable Burrito, which had potatoes, onions, and beans. The Guacamole and Chili Con Queso were great too.
The food was delicious. The margaritas were good but definitely not something to write home about. Service was a little slow but there were several large parties in the restaurant when we were there. Get something with the Molé sauce, it was fantastic!
There are a lot of things to like about this place. The food is typically excellent, and their margaritas are not weak. The service is also very good most days.
I'm only taking off one star because the seafood can be a bit fishy/unfresh smelling at times, and you might get a lot of fat in some of the slow cooked meats, like the birria.
Updating this review because it's been a long time since we were there... The menu has expanded but the quality is still every bit as great and perhaps even better. This place is unique among the various good Mexican restaurants in town and has authentic Oaxacan cuisine. Highly recommend!
Update: went yet again and they seem to be increasing the portions even further.
We celebrated my son’s 23rd birthday at Copal! This was our first time dining here and the entrees were delicious! Copal has a great menu with HUGE portions. My son ordered a steak and chicken burrito. My daughter had chicken quesadillas and I tried birria quesadillas-YUM! Diego was our patient and friendly waiter who checked on us often. Complimentary churros and ice cream with a song for the birthday guy!
I recently tried this place for lunch and our waiter was very friendly and efficient. We started with the cheese dip and the Copal margarita. The dip was good with chopped, fresh jalapeños. The Copal margarita was very good. It was nice and strong without being too sweet. We ordered a variety of tacos for lunch. We tried the grilled mahi, birria and pastor. While they were all really good, the birria and pastor tacos were our favorites. On Tuesday tacos are 3 for $11 with rice and beans, which is a pretty good deal. They are fairly big and definitely filling! This was our first visit and the food was great and service excellent.
I don’t understand why this place isn’t packed every second of every day?! It’s the best place to eat in Omaha hands down. Authentic Mexican. Perfect spice. Excellent service! Always ask for Raul (aka your favorite waiter from Hectors!!!!) I love the Chile Rellenos!!!! Ok it’s my favorite food in Omaha!!! Watch out for that habanero dip (or have a whole can handle that spice contest!). Don’t miss out on this place! Best Mexican in Omaha!!!!

First time seeing a concert here, and it was awesome. We will definitely try to see more. Little wait for drinks but not any worse than the big venues and way better priced. Check them out if you can!
I am not sure if food is served here or not came for a show.
ELR4F did a few raps, as did several other artists.
Beautiful building.
Great service.
Made a trip up for a show. Good vibes. Nice selection. No idea if they have food.
Very photo / video friendly. Very low lit venue will need to be proficient in flash or off camera lighting. Perfect for small shows 50-100ppl.
Would Highly Recommend. Reverb is a smaller venue space but has everything you need to put on a great show and have a good time. They have a Full Bar and Stage with Sound Equipment and a Sound Engineer. The only drawbacks I can mention is their Social Media Pages are lacking as far as updates we are in Jan and a pic for up comming shows on FB shows upcomming shows from October, and its a smaller venue space again for us it was PERFECT but if you have a big show planned you would definitely need a bigger space.
Reverb has a fantastic, intimate setting with top notch sound system making for the perfect show night out in Benson. Fabulous staff and atmosphere that I highly recommend for the perfect concert night.
Excellent mid-sized concert venue, not quite tiny, but not cavernous like the Waiting Room. Lots of great bands came through, and the people running sound did an amazing job!

So happy we chose here for our after dinner spot for the night.
What a beautiful lounge with comfortable seating, fabulous cocktails (ordered the Lavender Blue & Yukon Gold), good music.
Very classy yet not stuffy, it’s very enjoyable to just hangout here all night. I recommend you’ll thank me 🥰
Amazing cocktails and great vibes! The place was so cool and stylish and the bartenders were very welcoming. 100% coming back again next time I’m in Omaha.
No food but nice place great drinks. This is a upscale place to drink at. Had to update my review. You can get a good choice of beer and most whiskey.so much whiskey it's 5 kevels. Look at the bartender climbing the ladder to get bottle!!!!!!!!!! Lots of quality drink here!
This is the best bar in Omaha, which makes it the best bar in an approximate 600 mile radius. All the bartenders are incredibly knowledgeable, to the extent that they all have their own custom cocktails on the menu. I have never had a more personable experience in the service industry, either. I could come here on any given day and find something here or even in myself that I didn't have the day before. Whether you're just passing through or finding a spot in the area to roost, this is it. Much love to all the people who make this place happen. Keep on doing you, it's flawless.
This is a nice bar with deliciously boozy drinks. There is no kitchen, but there are a lot of restaurants within walking distance. It seemed like our group's server was always around when I wanted her and brought the drinks out fast. The layout was great for our group and facilitated conversations. And it was easy to pay my portion of the check at the end.
During our most recent visits to Omaha, we set out as usual to research and visit any potential stand out craft cocktail bars. My searches led us to a few places including The Berry & Rye.
Our conclusion?
The Berry & Rye was the most unique and exceptional craft cocktail bar we visited.
It had a true unique and independent vibe, The decor was posh, swank and vibrantly eclectic and classy, the mixologist was super cool and chill, welcoming and hospitable, and talented and independently innovative.
We enjoyed our craft cocktails; and then I enjoyed a pour of my favorite Italian digestíf (Braulio) afterwards.
One of my favorite cocktail lounges. Everyone I have taken there has loved it! I love how they change up the menu regularly, but leaves some of the classics. Their cocktails are well crafted, I may have only disliked 1 out of the many drinks I have tried.
Our servers have always been great, they check on us multiple times and are very sweet. The ambience is delightful, it’s not loud in there which makes for a great spot to sit and chat with friends.

I was in town visiting my daughter and we stopped there, oh my goodness the service at this place was absolutely top-notch. The blue haired bartender was amazing You Can Tell She's been doing this a while because she is very good at what she does and made our visit amazing. The actual bar itself is beautiful as well as the interior of the place
The drinks were great, reasonable pricing, proper glassware for neat whiskey. Most impressively, I watched a single server handle a wedding party of 40-60 show up by surprise. She did exceedingly well at handling a surprise crowd at 3 pm.
Kyle is phenomenal! He is so great with his attention to detail. He knows exactly when to show up for drinks and is super attentive. He showed us his personal drink he crafted, the American Godfather. What an amazing drink, I’ll be coming back for that drink specifically. Kyle never fails to be excellent at customer service. Proof is lucky to have a man this young but this talented on staff! Can’t wait to come back.
Enjoyable experience. Great location in Midtown at Turner Park. I went there for a whiskey sampling event. The staff was amazing. I really enjoyed the ambience and the wide selection of whiskey available at a reasonable price.
We went out to a bar called Proof in Omaha for a friend’s birthday. There’s a huge selection of scotch to choose from and there mixed drinks are tasty and they have a good beer menu as well. I had the house Old Fashion for $5. It was not bad but also not the best I’ve had. I would probably order a different one the next time just to see the difference but I’d still order this one. They have a very small selection of food to choose from as it is not a restaurant but an actual bar. The music was fun and sounded like you were in a Speak Easy. The bartenders were dressed up in suit vests which made the feel of the bar even more like something from the roaring 20s. They were polite and attentive. Even the owner visited our table and was sociable with us. This was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely go back.
Friendly and experienced staff. Fantastic selection and reasonable prices. If you are looking for a chill spot to hangout and try some unique spirits, you cannot go wrong here.
Really great place. Everyone there is really nice and super caring and the drinks are good.
The new guy is super nice too. I accidently fell asleep cause sports was on and he made sure I was ok. The fizzy violete drink is better than the non fizzy one.

One of my favorite cocktail lounges in the Omaha area! I love everything from the decor to the actual drinks. I love the speakeasy vibe to it since it is a little tucked away. This place has such a whimsical charm to it. The bartenders and servers have all been great! The drinks I have tried from their menu have been delicious and unique.

Alice is a standout cocktail bar tucked away in the suburbs of Omaha, offering a unique and inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for a laid-back night out. The drink menu is definitely something special—full of creative, well-crafted cocktails that use fresh ingredients and bold flavors. Whether you're a fan of classic cocktails with a twist or want to try something completely off-the-beaten-path, Alice has you covered. The bartenders are friendly, skilled, and happy to guide you through their exciting list of offerings.
The ambiance is warm and welcoming, with stylish décor that creates a comfortable yet vibrant space for both casual sippers and cocktail connoisseurs alike. It’s a place that feels like it’s designed for conversation and enjoying a good drink. However, the one thing that threw off the vibe during my visit was the music. It was noticeably too loud, and the upbeat, club-like tracks didn’t quite match the more relaxed, intimate feel of the bar. It made it a bit challenging to carry on a conversation, which, in a bar like Alice, feels like it should be the focus.
While Alice excels in drink quality and overall atmosphere, I’d highly recommend dialing back the volume on the music—this isn’t a nightclub, and the space feels better suited for a more subdued playlist that complements the chill ambiance. Still, with the great service, inventive cocktails, and cozy environment, it’s definitely worth a visit. Just maybe bring earplugs—or hope they’re working on adjusting the soundtrack!
Excellent experience! Loved the Alice in Wonderland theme and the extra attention to detail with the menu (it looks like a novel).
The staff, and our waiter in particular was very knowledgeable and gave us excellent recommendations.
My wife ordered the mystery elixir, which was quite refreshing, and our friends both got the Bartenders choice. The waiter had them give him their flavor preferences, and he took it to the bartender, who then created 2 of the cocktails from the menu that matched their flavor palate. One got The Saturn and one got Love in a Nutshell. They loved the recommendations.
We all thoroughly enjoyed the smoke and flaming cocktails. It was just a fun experience all around, and we loved the chill music and dark ambiance. It just felt like a proper speakeasy. The drinks were very well made too.
Alice is a great cocktail bar. Tucked away in west Omaha, this is a one-in-one-out bar that doesn’t get overcrowded, so you always feel you have space. Décor is very nice with couches in the middle and tables around the edges and a bar. I loved the Saturn tiki-themed drink so much I had to double up. Brothers Grimm is also a top notched cocktail for those seeking a little more than a standard old fashioned.
True to the speakeasy form, this was somewhat hard to find in the basement of a large, almost vacant building. Was this ever cool! Of course the theme is Alice in Wonderland and the atmosphere was relaxed and quiet.
The menu is a little book 📖 which the waitress was very good about showing the vast array of drinks.
While they do have appetizers, we didn't order any this visit. The drinks were really fun and creative-- and the tiki drinks were lit on fire right at the table. 🔥 Service was fantastic, and don't be afraid to try something new (see: Electric Dust).
Alice is actually in the lower level of the building and I am not sure what they serve down there. The main level is Legacy Chophouse and that is what this review pertains to.
I had the cold water lobster, plus a crab leg "enhancement" with charred sweet corn and calamari. My wife had the steak kabobs with asparagus and French onion soup. The calamari is the best I have ever had.
We both enjoyed our food a lot, the atmosphere was enjoyable, and service level was great. Tables are generously-sized, and the chairs are very comfortable and upscale. It was 5:30 on a Friday so it was busy. The parking is on the tight side, but after the adjacent credit union is closed you can park in their lot.
They do need to update their online menu to remove the $80 seafood platter as it is no longer offered.
We will be back again soon!
Excellent Service. They’re nice staff, very comfortable place to spend your night. It is one of the places with excellent drinks.
Fun little cocktail bar. Beautiful esthetic, great vibes and atmosphere. Drinks are creative and tasty but a little pricey and everything I have had has been pretty mild... And that's coming from someone who is a bit of a lightweight. 😂
Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice place to sit and sip and catch up with a friend.

Great cocktail and appetizer lounge. The appetizers are made from scratch and the cocktail menu is fun. This is a very cozy but lively place to go. The appetizers are amazingly good, not bar food. Live the atmosphere and vibe here. I tried the Cloud 9 martini( delicious and beautiful) and pretty in pink martini. Also great. The meatballs and sliders were huge. And very shareable!

It was packed inside - definitely hopping on a Friday night. But the service was still fast, friendly, and helpful. And the music selection was great, playing old (Take Me Home Country Roads by John Denver) and new (A Bar Song by Shaboozey) hits.
I loved my blueberry lemon mule, and my husband enjoyed the watermelon special. The Really, Really Onion dip was phenomenal (the house chips are some of the best I've ever had), and the dumplings were pretty good too. Brussel sprouts were a little crispier than I like, but that's entirely a preference thing.
WestEnd has a very fun and exciting appetizer and cocktail menu. Their food menu is very diverse and is very delicious. They have many different kinds of cocktails including a very colorful and delightful martini menu. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Its a great place to go for happy hour or to meet for a business cocktail.
The enclosed patio is nice, and a good space for our big group with a bunch of basketball youth! Food choices may be a little too fancy for my bunch, but that's okay. We enjoyed the experience, service was great. The drinks were super cool!
Came here for happy hour with my fiancé. A great spot to work from if you work remotely. They had some music videos playing in the background. Great place for a date night, girls night, or guys night or birthday. Definitely a perfect spot for drinks and appetizers. They have a spacious patio and spacious indoor space. I ate on the patio. The food was very good! My favorite thing on the menu was the chicken quesadillas and chicken wings. The wings were grilled perfectly and finger licking good! The staff was very attentive and customer service was awesome!
This has easily become my boyfriend and I's favorite place in Omaha to hangout and play cards! The atmosphere, cocktails and appetizers are top notch. And even though we typically spend 3-4 hours here, we always receive attentive service throughout the entirety of the visit! We love that the menu is constantly changing too. Some of our favorites drinks are the Blueberry Lemon Mule and the Espresso Martini. The "West Wing Style" wings and the Mexican Chorizo Dip rank among some of our favorite apps in Omaha
Always good place for date night and watch the 80's style MTV videos.
Everything that we had was good, but for the price and it's location, it wasn't worth it for us. The service was good, it was pretty busy when we came so it's understandable that we had to wait to order, but when servers came around, they were always very nice.

Great new experience having a cocktail here. Our waitress was very good and our cocktails were as well. Fun atmosphere with a different vibe. We had to walk all the way around the building in the cold because they had a private event in the main area, but it was worth it. We sat in the Speak Easy, which is what we came there for.

I recently had a fantastic experience at Barnato! The atmosphere was absolutely great, making it the perfect spot to unwind. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We were particularly impressed by the amazing cocktails—they really knew how to mix a drink! To top it all off, there was live music that created the perfect ambiance for an enjoyable evening. I highly recommend checking this place out!
Awesome multiroom space. It's attached to a Bentley dealership. There's a speak easy. Plan on dropping a C note per person. Staff needs some training but was adequate. Most of the crowd were first timers like me. Crowd was friendly imo. Good times....
Went tonight for the first time, for the Dylan Schneider Concert.
All staff was friendly and attentive. Was interested to see that this venue kind of conjoins a Bentley dealership; thought it was odd at first until I read in the bar menu(s) a little history on the purpose and theming, pretty neat!
I did not have any food, but the drinks were well prepared and tasty. A little pricey, but for a speakeasy type vibe (and quality) and paired with the concert it wasn't too bad (about $15 per cocktail give or take a few bucks). The portion sizes were a little small when compared to other places in the same chain like Alice or Wicked Rabitt, but not the end of the world.
For a concert venue, it was very intricate and intimate. I was only 2-3 rows behind the stage and had a fantastic view. Even if I was in the back of the crowd, it would have been very good compared to most other standing-room only venues I've been to. The close proximity of the bars, smoking patio, and restrooms are of course a nice perk.
I'd definitely return if I'm looking for some live entertainment. The best of both worlds combining a lively concert venue with an intimate speakeasy setting.
Our work had our holiday party here and we all had a great time. Fantastic offering of cocktails, mocktails and hard liquors. The decorating was on point for a holiday party and the appetizers and desserts were really tasty!
Paul the bartender is amazing!! We come every Tuesday and it’s just an amazing experience we always get the best espresso martinis and it’s our favorite! Everyone needs to experience this amazing atmosphere with and amazing staff:)
Cute cocktail bar with a stage and outdoor seating.🍸🍹🍸🍹 I went here for a rock show 🎶😀 🤘🤘🤘 I'm a rock/metal concert junkie and I would go back in a heart ❤️ beat! Although next time I would prefer to reserve a booth or table. I sat at the bar and the stools didn't happen to swivel. This is an upscale place and the food does not disappoint! I had the cubano sandwich and it was delightfully flavorful and way better than I ever expected! Now the fries dare I say it are my new favorite with the garlic Parmesan flavor. The Autumn daiquiri was exactly as described so I had 2 early on🍸🍸 🙂🙂. I got water 💦 towards the end as I have a long drive but sadly they picked it up twice when I had my back turned to watch the show almost directly behind me. Mind you I was at the bar in a bar stool all night. Service was a tad slow but they were very very busy so it was to be expected. Now a rock show isn't complete without a Spill and a bonus glass broken but they were lightning ⚡ and handled it very quickly. Security was attentive and on top of things and that made me feel more at ease. Rock on MF! 🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶🍸🍸🍸💦💦💦⚡⚡⚡❤️❤️❤️
Saw a Mr. Big concert at the main stage, which was a great time. Service staff were really helpful and nice. Sound was great as well. More recently saw a comedy show in the speakeasy section, which has a cool secluded club vibe. We had a great time there as well.

A madhouse on holloween and was still served within 3 minutes. Door man checking cards and keeping the chaos to minimum while allowing everyone to have fun. Special recognition to the man behind the bar for 100% awareness.
Hip and vibacious, trendy drinks that are so good. This is a place for the unique drinks, you won’t get your standard margarita here. But a definite must go and spend some time playing board games, darts, pool or just hang on the patio.
One of my absolute favorite bars downtown! It is such a cool unique atmosphere here and you can meet so many different personalities! All the bartenders have been helpful and polite. Matt is awesome at making up things to your preference if voiced. Always a clean atmosphere and never really any fights or drama like other downtown bars. Can be a little noisy especially on weekends so if that is not your vibe don't go otherwise it is a place you can genuinely go and enjoy your drinks and have a great time.
Great atmosphere and great drinks. Love the way it looks. My favorite color is green. The bouncer was awesome he’s so happy and a very cheerful fella. They should give him a raise, he even asked about my day. We talked about Texas Roadhouse, he informed that they sell rolls around thanksgiving time. Awesome! Highly recommend! ☘️🐸🐍🥑🐢🦖🐛🌳🥝
Was out exploring the city and I happened to walk across this bright green block. Immediately caught my eye. And being that it was about happy hour time, I walked in. It wasn’t packed, and I sat by the bar. Good vibes. Great drinks. Great staff and very helpful with recommendations—loved the Baby Unicorn drink, softly sweet with a kick! Would definitely be coming back.
Not really food there but it's a real chill place to hang out at and it stays open late
Update: they have the same bartenders which is a good thing they are all great at what they do even with the college world series they are all so chill just getting it done. Try the old fashioned
Knowledgeable bartenders, good clean bar, great selection and regularly updated craft cocktails. Fair prices too! Popular bar and for good reason.

Sips on 10th, located at 1022 S 10th St., offers a lively and relaxed atmosphere with a focus on champagne, wine, and craft cocktails. The menu features a variety of options including the 'Tuna Tower' and 'Caniglia's Venice Inn Escargot,' as well as small bites like sliders and gouda. Guests can also indulge in treats like the moist Citrus Olive Oil Cake.
There are worse ways to spend 45 minutes stuck in a city you didn’t mean to see. Trust me. I’ve been stranded in bus stations with flickering lights and vending machines that smell like broken dreams. But this? This was something else.
You get off the train in Omaha expecting boredom, maybe a sad coffee, or if you're lucky, a functioning bathroom. Instead, you stumble into Sips on 10th — part beer garden, part neighborhood fever dream, and the kind of place I would've lingered at “just for one” and ended up closing down if I was in town longer.
First off, beer. Cold. Cheap. Plentiful. None of that pretentious "notes of elderflower and disappointment" stuff either. Just good, honest beer you can pronounce and afford. Four of them later, I still had time to stretch my legs like a recently freed hostage and soak in the weird glory of the place.
There's a kickball field — or maybe a gladiator arena for the office leagues. I couldn’t tell. It was all very democratic and welcoming, like your drunk uncle’s backyard but with fewer arrests. The outdoor area is sprawling, almost suspiciously pleasant. Picnic tables, good tunes, dogs, laughter — the Midwest's best kept secret is that they actually know how to chill.
And the staff? Salt-of-the-earth types. No frills, no fake smiles. Just people who seem genuinely happy you’re not a jerk. A rare quality in the world and in bartending.
This place doesn’t try to be trendy. It doesn’t care if your IPA is cloudy or if the furniture matches your ironic flannel. It just is. A place to sit, breathe, drink, and remember that life’s best moments are usually the unscripted ones — like a surprise bar, a delayed train, and four beers deep before all aboard is called

My first time at Sips On 10th for dinner and drinks, I loved it so much I came back for brunch. Brianna was a great server, she was kind and attentive and made great recommendations!
Sips on 10th a fantastic restaurant in Omaha!
The food is fantastic and the vibe is great! Best for adults and group outings!
Compliments to the owner and staff ❤️
My family and I came in bunches after a wedding. Andy and Brittany were not phased as bartenders. Great experience. Everyone had a blast. We will be coming back for the food.
My daughter had her engagement party at Sips on 10th and it could not have turned out better. The owner and his staff were absolutely amazing! They were so helpful and attentive the entire time. The food was delicious!!! The atmosphere was perfect! This is a great place to have any event! Libby was the best bartender and their drink menu is so fun!
We enjoyed a birthday brunch here and the food and service was excellent! The lemon ricotta pancakes were very filling and a delightful combination of flavors, the French toast was crunchy and buried in delicious candied apples, the breakfast sandwich was hard to eat at one sitting but we didn't want to leave a bite behind , and the tater tots were savory and crunchy. The only thing we didn't like was the coffee as it was too strong.
Solid place, I’d give top 3 best ranch dressing in Nebraska. Staff is fly asl and food is bomb every-time and the staff is very accommodating for allergy’s and gluten. My girlfriend and I try to come at least every 2 weeks!! Also games for anyone and even the kids(cool outdoor area) and live music I think every Thursday.
On a Sunday afternoon Sips was moderately busy but I was waited on immediately. I had never been there so I had many questions of my server, Bre, and she answered them all, even though I was just getting an appetizer. I had the Sicilian Meatballs with Romano Cheese and toast (guessing forgetting fancy name) and they were delicious and filling! Also, at a reasonable price. A few people told me I should consider the cannoli as well for dessert but just there in-between meals. As I was leaving live music was starting as the norm on Sunday afternoon there and it gave a pleasant/chill vibe and it was not too loud. Will be back for the cannoli.

Located at 1411 S 13th St, Omaha, NE 68105, Tiny House Bar exudes a retro vibe with its interior design featuring mural arts and thoughtful light fixtures.

Patrons praise the bartender's expertise in mixing drinks and providing attentive service. The bar also offers non-alcoholic cocktails for designated drivers.
As a previous resident of the 402 and someone who loves good drinks and good vibes Tiny House is the spot. I have lived in states from coast to coast and this spot has the best craft drinks by far. I since have left the area and miss not only the drinks but the diverse personalities that occupy this space and the area surrounding. If you enjoy a cozy and welcoming environment where you can indulge in a legit hand crafted drink, and a on point seasonal menu this is the spot. Huge shoutout to the bartenders and owners who pour their heart and souls into creating this space for everyone to enjoy. Can’t wait to come back for a visit and enjoy another Britney.

Super neat inside. Lots of different rooms and areas to take photos. "Snack" friendly but not a llace if you're super hungry. Didn't try any snacks. Cool place to meet up and have a drink before you head to a busier spot. About $15 average for a drink. Couldn't stay long because it was FREEZING inside, and the bugs were terrible outside. I kind of wish they had something to help with the bugs on their patio. Would have stayed longer if the inside/outside sitting areas were better. We will be back to dress up and take photos.
This place is groovy. The inside decor is very chill. It's called tiny house but there is a variety of seating inside from the den, to couches, chairs, and tables and even a booth and a lounge in the back. If the inside is too crowded they have seating outdoors as well from you to pick from. The music is cool with chill sounds so it adds to the laid back vibe. The bartenders did an amazing job making everyone's drinks and I saw people going back up to the bar to order other things to try. They host events here, and all the staff did a great job of hosting. The asthetic is perfect for the Little Bohemia location.
Very cute spot in Little Bohemia. Great craft cocktails & nice vibes.
I went here on a date as it was recommended by a friend. I booked a reservation that cost $25, which I thought was weird, but I thought if the place was good; I would give it a shot. When we got to the bar and I gave the person at the door my name. They mentioned there was going to be a live DJ that night, and they thought about calling me to let me know, but didn't, as they didn't think I would mind. Long story short, my date and I could barely hear each other and it reminded me of a highschool party from 2010. We also got 2 drinks each and they were okay, but I don't think I'll be going back again.
We stayed in Omaha for a few nights, and I came here for to-go cocktails three nights in a row! Awesome, adventurous cocktails, and great staff. Super cool decor, as well. Highly recommend if you live in or are visiting Omaha and like higher-end drinks. Saint Dolly ftw, as well!
This is exactly what you want in a bar! Relaxed, eclectic atmosphere. Always good music, amazing drinks. Reminds of some beautiful places I visited in Amsterdam. They really brought 13th street to the next level. The staff is knowledgeable and energetic! This is a must visit place! All the cocktails are divine and creative! Spend some time in the private style rooms or just pick a comfy chair!
I only tried one drink, it wasn’t for me, very strong smokey flavor which I usually like but I couldn’t taste anything but that it was a tad overwhelming. But loved the vibe and the people would come back and give the drinks another chance. Very friendly and kind atmosphere!

The Stuffed Olive is a new bar in the Capitol District that offers an extensive menu of over 100 martinis. Visitors have described it as one of their favorite spots, praising its calm atmosphere and delicious menu offerings. The flatbread, stuffed olives, and charcuterie board are highly recommended, and the Love Potion martini was a standout favorite. The service has been commended for its knowledgeability and attentiveness, with particular praise for server Sarah.
We had the most amazing time here!! The bartender who was the manager was incredible!! She gave us some amazing advice on the food and drinks we opted for and it was all on point! She was super informative and the best part was she was from KC like us! We had great conversation with her and enjoyed all her knowledge about the area! We wanted to give her a big thanks on the breakfast advice as well!! Lula B’s was a hit for both my husband and I!! We will for sure be back to to see her and will always recommend The Stuffed Olive Omaha to our friends!! Thank you so much for making our night and trip more memorable!!💚

I had Daniella!! I’ve had her before and I just absolutely adore her. She remembered me and my boyfriend right when we sat in her section and immediately asked how the baby was that we had last time we were here. She brought us our drinks as soon as they were up. She is just so happy every time we see her and is VERY personable!
The olive sampler was amazing, really enjoyed the ghost pepper and cream cheese olives. Also had the Kamikaze tuna and calamari. The tuna was good but the calamari reminded me of the calamari in Hawaii, very good. Martini list is VERY extensive and the ‘Funky’ martini I had did not disappoint, highly recommend this place.
I love this place! Everyone is so great! Sofia knows the drinks I really enjoy! I love the vibes and people here! The GM Bri is definitely doing something right with her team! And my martini was almost better than you know what 😉
I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Stuffed Olive in Omaha, and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was both stylish and inviting—perfect for a night out or a special gathering. Steve, Kylie and Jordan were friendly, attentive, and made sure every detail of my visit was spot on.
Of course, the highlight was the martini menu. The variety was impressive, and each drink was crafted with care and creativity. Whether you’re into classics or something more adventurous, there’s something for everyone. The food didn’t disappoint either—delicious, well-presented, and perfectly paired with the drinks.
Overall, The Stuffed Olive delivered on every level: ambiance, service, and flavor. I’ll definitely be back again soon.
We came in tonight for the first time, not only did the GM Bri but the new server Jordin made our night so smooth and fun.
We didn’t know what to get and they were super excited about the menu and made the whole night a good time for me and my lady.
Highly recommend, up beer good vibes
I’ve been here a few times and I’ve always enjoyed my experience. I went the other night for a little birthday drink and snacks and had another great time. Our server, Jordan, was very kind and took great care of us. The food and drinks came out at the perfect pace and Jordan always showed up at the right time to place another drink order. The food quality is okay, nothing to write home about but I’m honestly just there for the birthday cake martini which is my favorite! They have a new deal going on Mondays which you buy one (select) martini and get the second (select) for a penny. Great deal!! I really enjoy coming here for a couple drinks to just hang out and have fun :)
Drinks 10/10
Food 8/10
Atmosphere 8/10
Service 1/10
Just wanted to hop on and write about my experience tonight at the stuffed olive. Our server was Sarah and she was not a good server nor pleasant at all. When we first walked in all we heard was her walk by where we had just sat and say “F**k”. Needless to say we did not get waters or our order taken for 20 minutes, note that 2 other tables who got there AFTER us had already gotten orders taken and drinks out. After we finally got our drink order in, the drinks sat at the bar for 15 minutes all finished until she finally brought them over to us. When we asked how much longer on our charcuterie board (after 30 minutes) she rudely said “they take a while” and would not even acknowledge us as actual humans. Once we finally got our food it was missing a main dip of the plate that we never even got to try. We ended up asking to talk to a manager- Dane and he was very nice. Overall I would give our experience a 5/10 we loved the drinks and wanted to order another round but our server was just awful and rude. Coming from a server myself I felt it is always important to provide the best experience possible for your guests.
Note: she treated other tables with respect and check on them. We did not get check on once. It took 30 minutes for us to even get a glass of water. Would not recommend her to anyone

The Burlington League is a cozy corner bar that has quickly become a favorite for its unique take on comfort food. With an inviting atmosphere, it serves up elevated versions of classic fair dishes, like their standout macaroni and cheese burger and delicious corn dogs. The menu also features fantastic options such as the Bacon Bleu Burger and TBL wings, all made with homemade ingredients. Patrons rave about the taco specials during Taco Tuesday, highlighting the quality of flavors in every bite.
Stopped in for a quick bite after a long day of moving. Service was great. Selection of beer on tap was perfect for us. Food was fantastic! Husband said the taco Tuesday special ($3.50/taco) was one of the best tacos he has ever had. Chicken wrap and burger were great as well. Was impressed by the bartender fixing all of the food and tending bar. We will go back!

Such a chic atmosphere with great view of the Durham. Tiny and quaint but modern deliciousness nestled in the corner of old Omaha. Give it a go and enjoy a gem!
Low key vibe, with a sociable-not chatty bartender. Sports televisions with no sound. Very laid back crowd. Amazong chicken wings, great flavor and enough meat on to fill up in a satisfying way.
The food and presentation were good. I like the decor as well. Not too big of a place but comfortable seats/tables and plenty of TVs for sports. The Bacon Bleu Burger was yummy as were the fries. Also has the TBL wings. I'll be back!
Unless you're friends with Justin don't bother. He will completely ignore you and act like it's a bother to do his job. We came in and there were 3 other people in the bar, I'm assuming they were friends of his. He completely ignored us for 15 minutes until our friend came in to join us. She must have been his "type" because after that he couldn't leave her alone. He tried to give her his number and we left because he was just super creepy.
The food here is really good, I think. Bar fare but better then you would expect. I know it's a bar but I come here for meals not drinks and am always happy.
I asked for a medium burger and it was well done and burnt like a meatloaf. I ordered the Mac and cheese burger and expected the overflow one we see in the pics here, instead it was a nuked but we with a scoop of semi warm Mac and cheese. There was only three tables. The bartender did a good job chatting people up, grabbing my beer, and taking care of myself and my son. Somehow the chef in back was incredibly slow still, wich may have been my nuked burger.
The fries were good, the beer was cold, and it tasted like the lines were clean.
I’ll go back to see if it was just the morning kitchen being lazy, but next time I’ll not be getting the burger, wich is a shake since they are supposed to be known for it.
My wife, daughter, son and 1 yr old grandson decided to grab a bite to eat after visiting the Durham Museum. This was on Dec. 9 at around 2:30 PM or so. We walked into the place and there was no one there except the server/bartender (looked to be maybe late 30s/early 40s male). The first thing he said to us was "we don't have any high chairs or booster seats". That should have been our clue to turn around and leave. We didn't. The service was sub-par at best. The server gave off the impression that he was being inconvenienced. We ordered some drinks, appetizers and entree items. The food was generally pretty good although my Swiss Mushroom burger was pretty bland and dry. The fries weren't great unless you like them underdone and limp. The server never checked in with us on whether we were enjoying the food, never asked if we wanted another drink or a re-fill. When he wasn't bringing our food/drinks he was on his phone...several times with his back to us. We had to get his attention several times for some additional items. Lastly, the place was completely devoid of any Christmas/holiday decor or music. The music was mostly metal. This ranks at the top of my worst dining experiences...anywhere...let alone Omaha.

I found this place on a whim & I’m so glad I did! My bartender Cassie was very friendly & answered my questions regarding the house cocktails, then we continued our conversation throughout my visit.
I had both an Espresso Martini & an Old Fashioned, both of which were made from scratch, and they were delicious! I had to stop myself from drinking each cocktail quickly.
The place is dim lit, clean, wheelchair friendly, and only charged $12.25/cocktail. I’ll definitely be coming back after my experience this chilly Saturday night!
This place is cozy and fun. Its decorated a bit like an assistant professor's apartment with a vintage HiFi setup including the record player, and crazy art on the walls, and the chairs are a hodgepodge of other collections, equally retro and cool.
They make tasty mixed drinks and have a decent selection of wines and a wide selection of craft beers.
The music was on point, and they've got big outdoor heaters for the smokers.
Very nice. We felt comfortable throughout the evening. We recommend it. Service was great. Espresso Martini was delicious.
Always good vibes. Espresso Martini is very good! They have a big patio in the summer to catch some rays while enjoying drinks with friends or family.
I love the vibe of this place, it definitely reminds you of a cozy speakeasy 🥃 I had a Godfather (amaretto and bourbon), and even though it was off menu, they made it perfectly; the manager even complimented me on my choice! The bathrooms are really clean as well and I really enjoyed the live music. Overall great experience and would definitely recommend 👍🏾
Charlie and Abby served us incredible cocktails!
The Espresso martini and Cucumber Smash are to die for!
We will be back!
This is my kind of place. The lighting is low, vibe is welcoming and relaxing. GREAT drinks, many options, and the bartender was super knowledgeable and even offered alternatives for angostura bitters for future outings. They had minimal food options listed on the chalkboard, but I didn't have anything the night I went, but would definitely explore some food next time! The owner & clientele all were very friendly and open to conversation, too. Just a great experience. Everything about this place was fabulous and I cannot wait to go back and see some live music here!

Brewery
Kinkaider Brewing Co. in Omaha is a delightful destination for craft beer enthusiasts and cocktail lovers alike. This unique brewery, which expanded its offerings in 2020 to include an on-site distillery, showcases a charming tasting room adorned with reclaimed barn wood and copper accents that beautifully blend industrial chic with rustic charm. Kinkaider takes pride in crafting around six distinct flavors of vodka and whiskey using locally sourced Nebraska ingredients, supporting local farmers while delivering exceptional spirits.
I had to live in Cody, NE for a couple of months for work. It's a small village in the middle of nowhere, but it's home to wonderful, kind people who drink Busch Light. What a joy it was to discover the only craft beer that was being stocked for the only local connoisseur - Devil's Gap, Jalapeno Ale. So, a few months later, when I found myself in Omaha, I visited the Kinkaider Brewery to enjoy a wonderful Imperial Stout and Barley Wine, my favorite beers. Dark as the night sky in the Nebraska fields, bitter as the prairie wind and unforgettable as the moans of my ex.
A wonderful bar with a great atmosphere, a patio with a fire and delicious beer (and craft whiskey and vodka - I haven't tried them, but the names sound poetic and loving).
I am grateful to the people whose passion for quality and style reaches the most remote places. Support and respect local, folks!

We went to the farmers market on a Sunday. Great atmosphere, fun table games…if available. The singer was great, and good Bloody Mary’s.
Excellent atmosphere for a brewery. This used to be an upscale cocktail bar and Kinkaider did a great job preserving that feel. They have a great selection of “local” beers here. The brewery is originated in Broken Bow, NE.
Great beer, nice place to watch the game
A little weird. Order at the bar, then serve yourself at the table, that was cool. But when you order the same drink twice, but ask one of the bloody Marys not contain olives, and you're told. "Pick them out, too busy to make those requests right now". And then finally get them, and they don't have the normal beef stick and salted rim as your first one, seems a bit inconsistent and not the "I wanna go back for this drink" atmosphere since not sure what you'll end up getting. Pretty disappointed in this place.
Solid microbrewery in Omaha, Nebraska. They have a large selection of microbrewed beers with hard liquor available as well - including local whiskey.
Great, friendly service. Outdoor searing is available.
The beer was ok. I'm mainly a whiskey and wine guy these days, so perhaps my palate is not as calibrated as it once was. The Wiser Red Ale I thought was a top-notch, well made beer. Creme ale - not so much.
This place is worth a stop if you're in Omaha.
This is one of my favorite breweries in the area. If you enjoy a nice crisp sour, then you need to try the snozzberry sour. Like a sour patch kid, it's sour, then it's sweet. I also appreciate how informative their website is. You can explore their beer options, and once you've clicked on the one you want to learn more about, it provides get a breakdown of the flavor and suggested food pairings.
It was the first brewery I checked out moving to Omaha. Great atmosphere, awsome beers, patrons are super cool to talk too and Maddie behind the bar was super awesome! She was very welcoming, full of great info about the area and informative about the beers and the Brewery. 10 out of 10 highly recommend! Will definitely be back next Tuesday!

Nestled in the heart of Omaha, The Cottonwood Room is a delightful cocktail bar that pays homage to its roots from the 50s and 60s. With its inviting ambiance featuring dark wood accents and plush leather seating, it exudes a cozy speakeasy vibe despite being easily accessible from the street. A striking faux cottonwood tree takes center stage at the circular bar, creating a unique focal point for guests to enjoy their drinks.
The Cottonwood Room bar at the Kimpton Cottonwood Hotel is such a beautiful spot. We stopped in on a Saturday evening and were lucky to find seats at the bar. The bartenders were friendly and made us excellent drinks. The fun décor added to the overall atmosphere, and of course, the iconic tree in the middle of the bar was a delight to finally see in person.
I highly recommend stopping in for a drink! Also, if you have time, be sure to try the restaurant next door as well. (Make a revelation in advance)

Very cool ambience and decoration. The location on the basement of the hotel gives the appearance of an actual speakeasy but there is easy access to the street. Music was a bit too loud for a speakeasy ambience. Cocktails were not consistent, due mainly to bartenders. There was one that knew what they were doing and the other not so much. I guess just luck if you get the right person. Food options not that extensive here. The steak bites were great though. Super tender and flavorful. Overall, good for a stop and definitely should be check out.
Great space, lively, good lighting. Cocktail menu hasn't been updated since the fall season (autumnal cocktails), can't comment on them because we couldn't get a drink. Not from being too busy, but from bartenders not even looking at you or acknowledging your presence. We tried to get a drink while waiting for dinner (25 minutes). Only one server who was crushed. Not a well run service. Unlikely to come back, too many other bars.
Wow. Great drinks. Bar looks amazing. The atmosphere is fun and the service was fast. The server was a red haired lady with glasses. I’m sorry I not know her name but she was very nice and knowledgeable. Drinks came out fast too. Th history of the place and the hotel decorations make you feel like you’re Rick in the 30’s with a modern vibe. Wife and I will staycation here for sure. We can’t wait to come back and try more.
Came down for drinks after getting a couple in the Orleans. It was great! Great bartender and the drinks were amazing! Great atmosphere and very inviting. Try it! You won't be disappointed!
This is a beautiful spot, with the tree in the middle of the bar. Great place to have drink. Great bar staff and I really like the house cocktails, especially the Pierce Arrow! There is seating all around the bar, as well as some small tables in a side area. There is also a server for the side area tables. This bar also provides drinks for the Committee Chophouse.
The Cottonwood Room is a charming cocktail bar located in the historic Cottonwood Hotel in Omaha, Nebraska. The bar is decorated in a classic style, with dark wood, leather seating, and a faux cottonwood tree sprouting from the center of the circular bar.
The drink menu features a wide variety of cocktails, both classic and creative. The bartenders are knowledgeable and can help you choose the perfect drink for your taste. We tried the Manhattan, which was made with a rye whisky, sweet vermouth, angostura bitters, and a brandied cherry. The cocktail was perfectly balanced and delicious.
The Cottonwood Room is a great place to go for a romantic evening. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting, and the service is excellent. We highly recommend this bar to anyone looking for a great cocktail experience.
I absolutely love this place! I’ve had both breakfast and lunch and have been so satisfied. I’d recommend to anyone. Such a fun atmosphere
