The blueberry poundcake is great, it's not too sweet and that really allows the blueberries come through naturally.Context: I've been coming here for 5+ years. The only times I don't like being here is right before showtimes at the Orpheum (check current shows to avoid the rush).They're not lacking for customers, and they have always, in my experience, delivered quality food and drinks. Their rotating menu selection is always a joy to look forward to.If you want to experience it more intimately/get a feel for it, go at around 5pm, on Sunday, or right after a showtime starts at the Orpheum.(Photos are of the mbti menu, the blueberry poundcake, and the tres leches.)

Stopped here for a cocktail . Enjoyed the interactive cocktail menu and the relaxed atmosphere. Has a cool low key retro vibe. Ordered their old fashioned which was awesome, which arrived with a crystal clear chunk of ice from their Clinnebell ice machine and their Cubano sandwich. Generously served.....like my mom msde it for me. friendly service. They have cool seating choices being at the bar, at tables or sofas paired with chairs.

This is truly a one of a kind establishment. Truly gifted and creative 'bar keeps' devoted to offering some of the finest spirits and concoctions on the planet, with an ambiance that references a past when going out on the town was an 'event' combined with a playful nod to contemporary pop culture and QR codes. The very existence of a bar like Mercury, in the midst of mediocre and souless 'beer halls', where customers are treated as welcome guests and not 'transactions', seated and not stacked five deep in front of the bar, somehow makes me feel very safe and comforted.

The Mercury always delivers...The changing (and often humorously themed) roster of cocktails (including mocktails) is the reason to go, but they're relatively short food menu is high quality. I had their Cuban sandwich, which departed a bit from the classic (tipping a step towards pulled pork), but was absolutely delicious.

I came back to Mercury and was blown away again. Last time I was here I hadn't tried any food but this time around I got the shrimp scampi, which was delicious and I could have eaten multiple bowls of it. They've also recently updated their cocktail menu to a fun riff on the Myers Briggs test, which was such a cool presentation of a menu and all of the drinks we tried were delicious. There's a reason this place is so popular and I intend to keep coming back every chance I get

My coworker took me here after our shift, and it was worth all my time and money!! Ronnie was our server and was AMAZING!! Bright and outstanding personality! Love and adore her!! I got the Hummas Plate, and seriously, I want a gallon to take some!! My coworker got the smoked chicken ravioli. Let me tell you... GET IT!! The Christmas theme menu of drinks was amazing! They pack quiet the punch, but the Hot Cider drink made me wanna be in my pajamas by a fire!! I'll definitely be coming back!
First off the food is phenomenal. I’ve been here twice. The first time we waited for 35 minutes and still was never even acknowledged, we sat right next to the POS station and servers were there and didn’t even say “we will be right with you.” So we left. Second time, a year later we got checked on once the whole time and that was when they took our drink order. I work as a server, I understand if a place is busy but this place is pretty small and still the service is extremely slow and non accommodating.

Mercury is a must visit during the year but right now they have their holiday decorations up and you feel like you're immersed into The Christmas Story! The decor is great and so festive. They also have a special holiday menu. I had the vodka, rosemary cocktail and it was not only delicious but beautiful.We also had the beer cheese fondue (so delicious)! The serving team was very attentive and our glasses never got empty.

Worst pop upDon’t waste time going here I’ve been in Omaha they don’t want business , greeters asked us to leave said look around do we look like we have room for 6 , yes that did bar top had open seats , 2 bar tenders looked at me and waved “bye” basically asked our group to leave horrible rude disgusting experience , if you want to have a fun experience at a holiday bar don’t waste your time here plenty of other places in Omaha that will welcome you
