    A very rude bartender at Barrymore's. Didn't even say one word. We had to go to her to place our drink order.

    This place has gone down hill. Once a cool hip vibe is now nothing but a downer. Horrible staff. Very rude. They act like your a burden on them. No wait staff, just a bartender and your lucky if they get around to your table. Stay away. There are better places downtown.

    This is a hidden gem in Lincoln. Located in the back of an old theater, This would be perfect for catching up with an old friend, or a chill 3rd date. It's a little too quiet for a first date and everyone would totally be able to tell you are awkward and don't know each other. They have a wide range of liquor and wine, as well as fun signature cocktails priced 7-10 dollars.

    Cheers to classic cocktails

    Almost every year I was in Lincoln, Nebraska I stopped here at Barrymore's. It has a rich history as it is a theater as well as a bar/lounge that exists within the Rococo Theatre. When you walk in you can see some of the lighting and sound switches as well as when you look up in the bar you can see the lighting rigs. It's a very cool experience. They are known for their classic cocktails. The first time I ever went there, I had the greatest experience because one of the managers took us to the actual theater and showed us around. She was cool and let us take pictures and everything. It was definitely not where we thought we would end up we were grateful for the tour. The second time I went we stayed for a few drinks and the same lady took us on the same tour. The most recent time we went, that did not happen - sadly but we did enjoy a few classic cocktails. One of my coworkers ordered a an old-fashioned and it was served with soda water. We weren't sure if that was a classic way of serving it, or if it was a mistake. She didn't really want it that way but we got through it. Overall, I've never had a bad time here and if I go to Lincoln Nebraska again, I will be there!

    Sweet controls on the way in.

    Wonderful bartender and the drinks were great! Vintage theater ambiance sets the stage for a nice and inviting evening!

    We recently returned to Liquid Assets for our second dinner, hoping for another experience like our…read morefirst visit. The first time, we really enjoyed ourselves. The food was good, the cocktails were well made, and we left looking forward to coming back. Unfortunately, our second visit didn't live up to that first impression. The food was still decent, but the cocktails were disappointing and lacked the quality we experienced before. The dining room was also quite noisy, making it difficult to have a relaxed conversation. One issue that was consistent on both visits was the service. While the staff was friendly, our wait service wasn't very attentive either time, and we often found ourselves waiting longer than expected for drinks and other needs, including getting our bill. I chased down the waitstaff on each visit just to pay. Based on our two experiences, Liquid Assets has shown it can be very good, but the inconsistency makes it hard to recommend wholeheartedly. We probably won't be in a hurry to return, though we hope they can provide a more consistent experience in the future.

    Second Trip: I've been dreaming about their food for MONTHS. It's on the other side of town so I…read moredecided to take my partner here on a Saturday night thinking they'd fall in love like I did. We ordered an appetizer and two meals, and were there for 2 hours, It took FOURTY MINUTES for our waters to be refilled, it wasn't even done by our server, it was the table runner that brought us our food, and we had to ask her to. We had to ask for silverware, apparently I should eat cottage cheese with my hands. I would've liked a different barbecue sauce because the one she gave me was extremely vinegary but there was no "how is your food?" "Can I get you guys anything?" So I just went without. We were going to get drinks and another app but with the shitty service we opted not to. There also wasn't other servers really around, they were all hiding in the back even though there was 5 of them. Were they cooking? Back there playing on their phones? I'd really love to know. But they all seemed to check on their tables way more than we were checked on. The guy behind us was checked on 6 times by a different waiter, and they were there longer than we were. Our server: 1. Asked us what we wanted to eat 2. Brought us the check when it was time to pay; waited 20 minutes to come back to pick up the card. TLDR: SERVICE WAS AWFUL.
