If you want to compare Harney St Tavern to something it would be the bar on the TV sitcom Cheers. Repeat customers are treated like family. "Where everybody knows your name'. Have a drink, listen to some live music or play some darts. Great place to start the weekend! read more

This is a good basement bar. We were there for trivia night, and a good time was had by all. The bartender serves well and quickly. Parking isn't simple, but we found a spot within minutes of starting to circle the block. Naturally, a spot was open in front when we walked up. :) We'll be back. read more

Love Trivia nights here. Greg is beautiful, and peanut butter shots really aren't that bad. Service is A1.

A nice addition to the Old Market bar scene. Go here for a good pint and some live music. The music aspect is especially fitting, because the Harney Street Tavern is located in the same underground spot as the old Antiquarium record shop. I didn't quite realize this at first, because the space has been completely gutted, but once I did I had a fit a nostalgia that I'm still kinda feeling. Anyway, another bonus is that there's no cover for the music and you can expect to hear a variety of genres, from funk to blues to jazz to singer-songwriters. I foresee Harney Street only getting better as its bright new sheen wears off and the space gets worn in. read more

Harney Street Tavern - 11 taps. That's about the perfect number. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

First bar I visited when I moved here a few years back and nowhere in town has compared since. I love this place and I bet you will too! Live music most every Friday and Saturday for a pretty low cover. I dig the spot. read more

Banana (the bartenders dog) is awesome!!! The bartender however could use some work on her customer service. If you want to make a joke with the bartender and have a good time Hailey is not the one to do that with. Instead, ask for Adam or Zach. read more

Stopped in here after going to another bar with a buddy. No cover charge and the place had a nice vibe to it. Band was pretty good and decent space. Didn't stay too long, but would like to stop back when I'm in town again. read more

Best pub in the old market, Hands down. Brady, the owner and his business partner have truly built a perfect spot for live music, dancing and the best moscow mules in the greater omaha area! I suggest anyone visiting omaha, to start and end their night at Harney Street Tavern. Big Shout out to Christine H! Perfect example of an employee who cares about the success of her workplace. Thanks for everything Harney St Tavern! Jacob Hamilton Audible Minds read more

I usually head down to the bar to chat with friends after work, but more importantly to see the bartender, Zachary, I've befriended as well. He is quite the gentlemen, and certainly knows how to tend a bar. The house shots keep us coming back for more. read more

This is a top neighborhood hangout for me. They have a stellar craft beer selection if you want a pint. However, I suggest that you ask Brady to create a cocktail for you. He takes the time to create a perfect cocktail with quality spirits; even if it is busy. You can always meet new or old friends here. There is live music many nights (check the chalkboard). It is a clean comfortable downstairs space which makes it a favorite place for the Old Market locals. read more

Nice! Never been here before and was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere and clientele. Seemed like the bar was filled with good looking intelligent people. Missed the music, next time.... Delirium on tap! Along w/ Lagunitas, founders, Guinness, and a handful of others. read more

This place is great. I don't know what that one bitch was talking about but Haley is awesome! I always enjoy my time here. Some people probably just don't know how to tip read more

Always great to see a live band while you're out drinking and Harney St never fails to provide. Great atmosphere with friendly staff.

Underground, downtown low key bar. An alright selection for the space. Live music nightly. read more

Harney Street Tavern - Draft beer selection - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Nice little basement bar where the legendary Antiquariam used to be. They have local songwriters here quite often which is why I ended up at the Harney Street. While it is has a very nice bar and wood features throughout it certainly feels like a basement and there is not a lot on the walls. I like that personally as I think bar walls should fill up organically over the years rather than just stick up a bunch of hokey stuff to fill them. The sound in venue is pretty good for the songwriters-but it's not a room that will sound great without some work and there is no reason to put in that work unless you are primarily a music venue. Bartender was friendly and prompt, drink was a $1 more than in Benson bars but to be expected in Old Market and it was a fine drink that didn't skimp on the liquor. I look forward to watching more performers here. read more

Best bar in Omaha. They regularly have incredible entertainment. They support local artist and always ensure quality entertainment. The alcohol selection is top shelf through and through. The service is outstanding. They clearly pride themselves in customer service and keeping a clean Establishment. I have yet to visit an establishment that can even compete in service, presentation, or product. They make you feel like home. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else. read more

We LOVE Harney Street!!! We play here regularly when we tour through Omaha. The staff, stage, crowd and sound is one of the best. Ever. Watch our music video here: https://youtu.be/X01MtEiuNP8 Whitherward www.whitherward.com read more

I've been to Harney Street twice to see live music and its become one of my favorite Old Market bars. They have a small but solid selection of beer, great cocktails, and some pretty good acts. Not to mention the fact that the place feels a bit like an old school speak easy. I'ts below street level and from behind the stage, you can see people walk-by on the sidewalk. It's exactly what downtown Omaha was missing. My only gripe are the televisions. I get it when there's not a performer but when someone is playing on stage, turn the tv's off. read more

If I could give a half star here I would. My friends and I went to this bar expecting to have a good time until the self proclaimed "owner" called my friend out for not being man enough to take a shot of tequila without salt. It was really not a big deal until the bartender took the shot that was meant for my friend. As soon as I tipped our bartender $0 the guy got in our face, thinking he deserved a tip, and followed us to the sidewalk belittling everyone in our group. The group continued to taunt everyone saying that we needed to go to a more "prestigious" bar when all we wanted to do was have a good time. Needless to say, it sucked. The bartender was clearly the drunkest guy in the bar.... read more

Great addition to the Old Market! It is nice to see a place that places emphasis on quality beer and cocktails while providing a comfortable environment. I have not been down there for music yet....yet. I definitely see this as a place that will be around for a long time. The service was great also! read more

Too bad you missed out on a good New Year's Eve bar tab due to a slightly expired 40 year olds license. Great job door nazi! Yours truly joe

What a great home town-y bar with great music! Loved how everything was through the bartenders and the took care of you like they knew you. Prices are good for old market area! read more

Very low key night here but very worth it. Quick and great service and was not disappointed by the service

Good cocktail and beer. Nice music. This place is little small for big group when it's busy on the weekend but still worth stopping by for a drink. I like the pear cocktail they have now. read more

If you're looking for a hipster spot downtown, this is your place. It's got a benson vibe, plenty of craft beers, and great live music. Love the look and vibe of this place--and very clean (more than can be said for most Old Market bars). Came here on a week night and there was plenty of space to chill at a table and listen to tunes--would probably be more crowded on weekend, but a worthy addition to the Old Market bar circuit. read more

My favorite bar downtown. The staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the drinks they're making. They aren't shy on their alcohol portions and they aren't stuck up about it. I would recommend this bar to anyone who wants to have a chill time OR be around other bar patrons. read more

Came in on a Sunday night for a casual drink, turned into a night not to forget. The bartender Zach was such an inviting face. The house shots had a wonderful taste, and you are getting you are going to get your monies worth! We will be back next Sunday for sure! read more

Stopped in and found it to almost empty but that wasn't true.. a steady stream of customers came in on their way home. Bartender was the kind would be your friend if you were not at the bar. A nice small tavern with a relaxing atmosphere. read more

Ok, I hate the old market, but I actually really like this place! Its not your typical douchey affliction guy dance club or loud annoying sports bar, Its just a normal bar. Both times I've been, its been on the way to a show at the slowdown or another bar downtown for a birthday party or whathaveyou, and both times i was greeted by a friendly and attentive bartender, and both times there were some old men that were nice and well-dressed (must be regulars) I will definitely be back next time i have to come down that way! Also, super clean bathrooms. Always an added bonus. read more

This bar has a very homey feel to it. It is very clean for a downtown bar. They have a drink menu with a few craft cocktails, and some great craft beer selections in bottles. The staff is really friendly and even on the weekends you can get a drink fairly quickly. If you haven't already checked it out, I would recommend it. Dogs are welcome too! read more

After travelling many miles on Intersate 80, my brother and I had the fortunate surpise to happen into Harney's Tavern in Omaha. What a nice joint. Solid beers on tap. Good mix of traditional and experimental cocktails on the menu, but most of all an exceptional band playing damn good music. read more

Never even knew this place existed. Went out with some friends in the Old Market and stumbled on Harney Street Taven. Good Beer Selection, Good Drinks, and Band was Really good as well read more

I love this bar. It's small & tucked away but large enough to fit a nice sized crowd (I think max occupancy is 110 or something like that). It has a really warm rustic vibe aesthetically-speaking, & the sound at live music events is great. All in all i highly recommend this one. read more

A good local bar with a good local atmosphere. The staff was great and they had a nice drink selection.

Great bar!! Cool music and awesome bartenders and great location. I like to watch games here, cool atmosphere
