    One of my favorite spots in all of Lincoln - whether to work/read alone, or take my wife on a date (when we can get a babysitter). It's on campus, so there's a low hum of studying and conversing but never loud. The staff are friendly, but sensitive to if you're in a hurry or not. I haven't had the food, but the pastries are superb. My personal favorite drink is the grenata. The right combination of flavor, chill, and the consistency forces me to drink it slowly and savor it.

    The mill is THE go-to for coffee in Lincoln. Whether you're trying to study, catch-up with friends, or even have a work meeting this place is perfect. Most frequently I visit the location on UNL's innovation campus because it's normally quiet, parking nearby, and not only they have coffee but also lighter meals and a bar if you want a cocktail or a glass of wine. Their coffee options are numerous and their baristas are always there to help. Normally would come here to study, so there's many outlets and big tables if you need to spread out study materials. Can't recommend this place more!

    Great spot to study & grab a quick breakfast. Come back later for drinks at the bar. Yogurt parfait & quiche were delicious, staff was very nice.

    Checked out the newest location of The Mill now at Innovation Campus. It's definitely a great addition for the area and I love how spacious it is. Even with all the windows it still has that mellow, relaxed coffee shop feel. I love the repurposed architectural elements that add character throughout. The addition of an event space is even better and we hope to use it this spring for a work event which is what brought us here. It will be a nice size for the small group (40) we plan to have and again I love the repurposed, vintage feel. As part of the rental we must purchase food so we sampled the quiche. I had half of the vegetarian option and half of the bacon. We were checking taste and quantity to be sure our guests would feel satisfied. The eggy centers were soft and creamy and the crusts flaky. Overall taste is acceptable though the vegetarian could use a little seasoning. The bacon was fantastic. The quiche are a nice size and paired with fruit will be a nice, light breakfast or meal. I don't know if it would hold me over for several hours but I do think it will be adequate for our guests. They are pricey at about $5 each. I've never preferred the coffee here, it's a bit dark and bitter for my tastes, but I still drink it. Especially doctored with cream and sweetener. I had the hot toddy and it was a nice little pick me up for the afternoon. I also had a two inch high rice crispy treat with mms inside! and chocolate on top. It was really hard to wrap my mouth around but I managed. I really have no complaints. Service was excellent. Lots of people studying or reading. I don't know how often I'll come here due to location but if I need one of those coffee shop work days I'd for sure consider this an option.

    Went to every location in Lincoln while visiting friends for the College World Series. Good coffee and each one had a different vibe. 4 instead of 5 because the coffee wasn't consistent across the shops (quality of latte) and one location was less than friendly. I can't remember which one but i think it was the one where they have the market in town.

    Great place to hang out while on the innovation campus. The pop tarts look phenomenal and the coffee is some of the best I've ever had.

We've gone with friends and on our own and there's always been a table ready pretty quickly and servers ready to get our orders. We recently went to dinner here and we were both hungry and eager for some Ramen. I ordered the Blackstone Tonk with an egg and my boyfriend ordered the Spicy Miso with extra noodles. The broth for mine was rich, flavorful, and warm. The pork was perfectly tender and the egg added texture and more flavor for me. My boyfriend is always happy with a little spicy heat in his meals and he was pleased with his choice. He may have added a little more spice but that's just because he's evolved his tastebuds to handle it. Anytime we decide to come to this Ika I know that the food and service will be consistent. The servers are always on point in checking on you, our waters were refilled a few times, and they never seem like they are rushing us out the door. On a different note, I also appreciate the decor and atmosphere in this location. The old brick walls and open space feels as though, and there probably is, a lot of history within the walls. Tucked away down an alley, this location is easy to miss but absolutely worth a try!

We were decently early on a Saturday night so we were able to slip right into a table! The food was good, I had the hummus plate with pita and cucumbers for dipping, love that they offer both options! The bartender whipped up a mocktail in a martini glass so I could still play along on our "Martini Flight Night" across Omaha! It was a spicy martini, with some fancy black salt, I'm not quite sure, but it was fantastic!

    First time at West End Omaha and I'm already plotting my return. Showed up yesterday on a random…read moresnowy afternoon while visiting friends in the area--heard nothing but good things, and wow, it delivered. Walked in around 2:30 pm on a total snow day and basically had the place to myself, which was kind of perfect. The vibe inside is exactly what I want in a bar: dark, moody, a little sexy, with dim lighting and rich wood tones. Total escape from the bland strip-mall parking lot outside. Night-and-day difference the second you step through the door. Happy hour runs every day until 6 pm (huge win), so I grabbed the Toasted & Roasted martini for $9--yes, it comes with a toasted marshmallow garnish that actually works--and it was dangerously good. Sweet, smoky, strong... one of those drinks you sip slowly because you don't want it to end. Paired it with the buffalo chicken sliders + fries and demolished everything. Sliders were spicy without being overkill, sauce was on point, and the fries were perfectly crispy. Service was friendly and quick even though it was quiet, and the bartender checked in just the right amount. Prices felt fair (especially with happy hour), and the whole experience just felt... cool. Like the kind of neighborhood spot you brag about finding. Already texted my local friends that they've been sleeping on this place. West End Omaha, I'll be back--hopefully next time with a bigger group so we can try more of the menu. Highly recommend!

Normally I'd get the birria tacos which is just tacos. No sides come with that. All street tacos are sold individually. I am not saying the food isn't good, but I believe it is overpriced. Going now to Clase Codigo where their prices are reasonable for the amount of food you receive to actually fill you up and more. I feel this restaurant is successful because of the location. It is in Blackstone which is a high traffic area. If it wasn't in Blackstone I don't think it would be popular. Service is always fast and the servers seem nice! I feel like they are always so busy. Restaurant is clean! Love the water pitcher you are served! Food has always been yummy!
