“ A smaller, quaint local bar, with a mix of regulars of all ages. From college kids, to the "old times" and everyone in between, it's a neighborly atmosphere. A bar where after a visit if two, everyone 'knows your name'. The have live bands once a month, weekly quiz nights, darts, pool, life-sized Jenga, an outdoor covered patio, and some of the best regulars and bar tenders around. For a smaller bar, they do have a pretty good selection of local beers to choose from, and even have a few select snacks on hand to purchase, if you get a bit peckish. It attracts a good crowd in Husker game day though. With TVs in every corner, you won't miss a single play. Honestly, the prices are a bit higher since it's a much smaller bar but, it's got too be one of Omaha's best kept secrets. The staff is amazing, friendly and always positive. They function more like a family, and treat their customers in much the same way. ”
