    DO NOT EAT HERE. The cooks were possibly inebriated while making my burger. I tried to put my friend on this spot and had no luck finding my toppings

    Berry Hungover Burger

    Super quick trip in Omaha, had to have Tap House on the trip. We ordered a delicious garlic burger and fries on the car coming from a wedding rehearsal, picked it up, and chowed it down in the same 40 minutes. Service was quick, food was amazing and fries were seasoned so well.

    Starting off with my biggest complaint for any place is the added charge (3% here) for paying with a card instead of cash. It's a crappy thing to do so we probably won't be back just because of that which is unfortunate because we like the place for noon NFL games. Otherwise, the burgers were pretty good and my jalapeño burger went well with the fruity beer. Pickles were overly salted and thin, so they weren't too great.

    Pomegranate Lemon Drop

    Had a large work group go to dinner here on a Thursday night. I could not say more nice things about the staff - they cared so much and didn't allow the big group to seem intimidating! All of the drinks and food were brought out super quick! I got the steak rice bowl and it was AMAZING. I also can speak on the Pomegranate Lemon Drop - 10/10. I would love to come back here and try more food and drinks! Also, the cheese curd sampling is a must!

    We ordered the cheese curd sampler and it was the perfect choice. It was fun rating the different types of cheese curds and I can definitely see why this place is one of the best for cheese in the area. Had a great time and definitely recommend!

    I was in Omaha for work and ended up at Omaha Tap House Downtown for dinner right after landing. A good burger and a cold beer were exactly what I needed, and this place nailed both. The burger was juicy, the beer selection was solid, and it all just hit the spot after a long travel day. If I'm ever back in the area, I could definitely see myself stopping by again to see what else they've got going on. It's got that laid-back vibe that makes you want to hang out for a bit.

    Banana Bread Beer + Fair Wisconsin Cheese Curds
    Anna R.

    Loved the banana bread beer and fair cheese curds. Thanks for putting the NHL games on by request and the quick service A bit of a quiet atmosphere (aside from standard music) perhaps due to the storm and grey cold weather. Construction was like a safari to get through, had to be very cautious.

    Jalepeno popper burger, Melvin beer, chicken teriyaki rice bowl
    Shauna T.

    Came here for valentines lunch! They were very busy and were out of some beer options. We ordered the jalepeno popper burger and the chicken teriyaki rice bowl, with the Melvin and a dirty martini to drink. My husband enjoyed his burger and beer! I liked the flavor of the chicken teriyaki and my only qualm was that the egg was a bit runny. The dirty martini wasn't very good. Overall pretty good food and nice sports bar vibe!

    Omaha Tap House is one of my go-to places for a great burger, and their menu has something to accommodate for any taste. I personally always opt for the brown sugar burger, and it has never disappointed me! The cheese curds are delicious, and I always recommend the sweet potato fries here! It is laid back and perfect for a meal with friends or family, but my boyfriend and I consistently eat here for date nights! Our service has varied, but it is normally great and our last waitress here was very attentive!

    What a nice little spot in downtown Omaha. We got in last night about an hour before a concert and needed a quick bite. Omaha Tap House was a few minutes walk from our hotel so that's what we did. Cute little restaurant with nice staff. I had a bison burger and a drink I can't remember the name of. The drink was okay but nothing spectacular. The burger was very good. My friend enjoyed hers too. Service was good but not amazing. I'd try again.

    My boyfriend and I stopped in for a super late lunch around three! The food came out really fast after we ordered. My boyfriend got the Hickory burger and said that it was pretty tasty. I got the garlic parmesan boneless wings which was good too- it came out with a lot of sauce as you can see in the picture! The fries were definitely my favorite part of the meal, idk what kind of seasoning they use but it was really good! It was a nice casual dining experience.

    Spicy Honey Salmon Rice Bowl

    Wow it was really good! We also ordered the cheese curds and definitely recommend them too. Parking is a bit tricky right now with construction but it is worth spending a few extra minutes to find a spot. This place is for sure worth the visit.

Long event day on our feet and this was the definition of an escape. The underground tiki bar might not seem like much when you're walking down the stairs to find it, but once you're inside you're transported somewhere vibrant yet relaxed all at once. Bartenders were super nice and friendly. They made awesome conversation and once they found out I was visiting, they seemed even more hospitable. Tiki drinks are known to take a few extra minutes due to the laundry list of ingredients, so the fact they took the time to get to know me really elevated the experience. For the cocktail menu, you'll find all the classics like Mai Tai, Painkiller, Saturn, etc. They also had an extensive variety of original cocktails, which I think we all opted for. Mine was called the Swamp Rattler (had to pay homage to my Florida roots) and I loved it! Vibes are on point. Place was busy at 11pm on a Thursday night. Most of us didn't realize it was closing time at midnight, and they were all so friendly about telling us to leave. Was cool that the bartenders knew all the tiki bars in Denver, too! My fave stop in Omaha, awesome spot!

Yes, it's changed some - but pretty much all in positive ways! Loved the music and vibes. The bartenders were friendly. Drinks were crazy cheap by Vegas standards. As an older guy now, the most surprising thing was how many college-age straight-ish folkz there were (can't know for sure, of course - but that's what it looked like) It warms my heart to see how friendly, open, and accepting that crowd is. Keep Leading the Charge, Omaha! That being said, I feel that we're losing spaces where just gay men hang out. I miss the sexy, cruisey, brotherly vibe of some of the old haunts. Still, it's a fair trade to see so many ages, genders, and presentations all having fun together. My husband - who is born & raised in Las Vegas - where we live - said "Why do I have to travel to Omaha to hang out in a really great gay bar?!" WTF, Vegas?! Times change, but The Max is eternal!

They even have pairings on their menu that show you which popcorns go best with each cocktail (and each cocktail actually comes with a side of that popcorn). If you like your side of popcorn that came with your cocktail, you can also purchase a large bag of it to take home! Our favorite popcorns have been the French Toast, Bourbon Bacon Cheddar, and Peanut Butter. They have popcorns for every craving - savory or sweet.
