24 Best Cocktail Bars in Lincoln

“Fantastic cocktails, fun and attentive bartenders, and a great atmosphere! If you love gin cocktails, you definitely need to come here. Super affordable craft cocktails that were amazing. Local art on the walls for sale was a bonus and fun to look at while drinking. The architecture of the building made for a nice experience.“

“So many memories of this place over the years. Never disappoints.“

“Came here for cocktails on a Friday night with a party of 4. The atmosphere and vibe was great, especially with all the Halloween decorations and fog machine. All our drinks were excellent except for my girlfriend’s dad’s old fashioned. It tasted like straight bitters and was probably the worse old fashioned I’ve ever had. We would definitely come back but I would order something different next time.“

“Fun Place. We were here for a Fund Raiser. It was a Nice Bar. Small and Cozy. There was Live Music. It was very Crowded. The Staff were Great. They were on top of anything You needed. Which Impressed Me I would Assume as Busy as it was They wouldn't be able to do that. I am not sure if this is everyday there. The Sandwiches were REALLY Good. And so were the Jello Shots..“

“We were there Monday night this week. We were well taken care of by Katie who was very friendly, checked on us often and handled a very minor dispute between other customers calmly and quickly. No food aside from some snack chips, but we were told we can bring our own food next time. We will be back!“

“Can’t say enough about the place. Good vibes and sexy people everywhere.“

“This is a simply a great place. You will have a hard time finding better service or better beer in Lincoln. GREAT location in Haymarket, there's also a rooftop bar that's well worth the effort. Food options are limited, but the top-shelf sausages and pretzels means nobody need walk away hungry. We always stop here when we get back to Lincoln.“

“My wife and I happened in to the Omaha Lounge location as we traveled the country using the US cider map as our guide. We LOVED every thing about Saro Cider. The ciders were amazing and distinct. I have had thousands of ciders and these ciders were hands down some of the best. And the fresh made hummus was so good I think i had a spiritual moment. We took many ciders to go but will definitely be ordering some online. Maybe you can find a northeast US distributor!“

“Place is awesome!“

“Amazing place, nice menu with good choices“

“I'm in Lincoln for a month working, staying at the candlewood suites and am so glad to have this place right by . Such great people , and the selection of beers and spirits is top notch. 5/5 frosty beer mugs!“

“* Review for Buzzard Billys*My wife and I took her father and his friend here because the food is always so amazing!!! The service, on the other hand, is less than desired. The staff seems like they would rather be elsewhere. They seem to congregate around the hostess stand. We love the atmosphere, it's uniquely designed and reminds my wife and I of the first restaurant we served at back home in TX called Joe's Crab Shack ? We will definitely be back we do enjoy the food!!!
We absolutely love going to Starlite Lounge!!! Their martinis and staff are absolutely amazing!!!!“

“Amazing food, service, desserts. The menu is always changing so each visit is different. The Sunday brunch has some wonderful dishes, don’t pass up the breakfast burrito!“

“Fun bar close to home! Great service and a super friendly atmosphere!“

“Stumbled in from out of town and what a treat. Awesome staff; incredible drinks (highly recommend trying their fall specific menu) and just happened to have some live music which is always a plus. The man on the mike played some cover folk and rock songs and it made for a great night.“

“My daughter is a new UNL student and misses our family dog. I drove into town on Thursday night and brought our dog. We walked around the Haymarket together and had to find a sushi place! Thank you to Blue for being so awesome and letting our dog sit with us on the patio while we enjoyed the amazing meal! The staff was amazing when it came to us having our dog….who got a bowl of water and two treats from the staff! Thank you so so very much for a great evening! Keep up the amazing work!“

“Truly Delicious meals! Definitely sending all my friends there“

“Chef Drake made me a Beef Wellington that was out of this world! The brussel sprouts and corn fritters were also delicious! Addie (sp?) was very attentive and a great waitress.“

“Fleetwood is a must-stop for me when traveling through Lincoln. You can tell they take pride in everything they do, from their inviting atmosphere to their creative menu. I can't recommend them highly enough.“

“Best Mai Tai in town! They use an old recipe and it is definitely worth a try. We'll be back to have another one.“

“They need to stop calling the screwdriver pitchers "Elk Creek Water"- I come from the land of actual Elk Creek water and it's nothing like it! that being said, its bomb as hell and this is an awesome and fun bar that we love having a good time at :)“

“The food here is absolutely amazing! I had the combination plate and it was some of the best Mexican I've had in Lincoln. Highly recommend.“

“I ordered a cake for my daughter's birthday and it was delicious and super cute!! We all absolutely loved it!“

“Great new space! Sun too much even this time of year, no shade on deck. Can't imagine if it were summer. Good selection of beer.“
