Came here yesterday for lunch with my Boys. Over all it was just ok. Service was great. The hot pastrami taste good but there was barely any pastrami on the sandwich. The crinkle fries were room temp like they had been sitting around. My son's burger was overcooked and dry. He said it was hard to eat. Not sure why peeps rave about the food. And I have to say the men's bathroom yesterday was one of the most disgusting I've been in. Floor was all wet, stunk bad like urine. For sure had not been cleaned in some time. read more

Okay, very chill bar vibes here! My husband got their Philly, which was SO GOOD. Compared to Philly Phillies, they are a top contender. I got the wings and while they were good, just a little small! But sauce was good! Last min decided to get their famous fries to go and so glad we did because they were insane. Crispy and seasoned to perfection. Great service too! read more

You'll love this place if you love home style food in a dive bar vibe. They nail all the classics. It's not fancy and we like it that way. Great Rueben's and phillys. I really enjoyed my taco salad. Be prepared to sit close and get there early for good parking read more

I stopped in while visiting town after seeing this spot all over TikTok but honestly, it's not what the videos make it out to be. The Philly cheesesteak was disappointing: bland, nothing special, and definitely not worth the hype. The food overall felt pretty average, nothing that stood out. That said, the ambiance was actually nice great lighting, comfortable setup, and plenty of TVs for watching the game. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the food doesn't live up to the social media buzz. Wouldn't recommend the Philly cheesesteak, but if you're just looking for a chill spot to hang out and catch a game, it's okay for that. read more

Barrett's Barleycorn Pub & Grill - Worst Philly cheese steak - Irish Pub Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

My family heard this was a spot one of the Creighton basketball players recommended to try so we gave it a whirl. We ordered curly fries for the table, a Ruben, maverick burger, shrimp po boy, and a chicken Philly. Everything was absolutely delicious. I got the shrimp po boy that came with lettuce, tomatoes, and Cajun sauce. The crunch from the fried shrimp paired well with the soft bun making sure it wasn't too crunchy. The menu here has so many options I wasn't surprised that there were people waiting on tables. read more

Wanted a bite to eat and a place to watch the games on Sunday while traveling through Omaha and this recommendation from a friend, even though it was a bit out of the way, did not disappoint! Parking can be tough if it's busy but I was able to get a spot in the small lot before it became crowded. Even as a visitor, I received friendly service, and you can tell they have a great regular crowd. The vibe was your typical sports pub vibe and the food I would say is above average for pub fare, and decent prices. I had a whiskey sour and patty melt, and I'd say it was one of the better patty melts I've had in a while, I appreciated the 1/3 burger and lots of cheese! If I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely return. read more

It's been awhile since I have eaten here - believe me I have tried - I just prefer to get my food to go from here. It's a small bar atmosphere and lots of regulars. I have tried and tried to call and get food to go but it's been awhile since I have been able to get through. However, I recently did get through and got the philly sandwich - man, it does not disappoint. I need to order it more often! read more

Barrett's is definitely an Omaha staple and one of my favorites. The food is always hot and delicious. Definitely recommend the Beef Philly Dugan Style (in a Bowl, no hoagie) and Loaded (Peppers, Jalapenos, Mushrooms, Onions). If you're a Midwesterner, you judge a place on how good their ranch is. I'd put it up there with Runza ranch - 10/10; homemade ranch is where it's at. The service is always wonderful! Even as we walked in, the gentleman wiping down the window said he grew up in a world where ladies are first and held the door for us; so sweet and loved his enthusiasm. I've always had a special love for Irish pubs/bar and grills because every day is St. Pats and who doesn't want to celebrate. Sláinte! read more

The atmosphere is just like you moved Alex Box Stadium up north. Our waitress was running around like a chicken with her head cut off and still greeted us as happy and cheerful as can be! Fantastic job ma'am! Our sandwiches were phenomenal. I don't know how they make the cheese sauce on the Philly but it was killer! Will come back! read more

High quality and flavorful bar food. BEST Reuben in Omaha. It's hard to understand why other popular sports bars in Omaha can't or won't offer tasty items like Barrett's offers. read more

Good food, good times at an Omaha classic. I tried The Blarneystone, as I try to order something that at least references Ireland if I am an an Irish bar. I liked the taste, but based on the description of "cubed turkey breast" and red onion, I didn't expect it to have such a soft texture, almost a purée. It made the sandwich quite boring to eat. The red onion was barely noticeable, would have been nice to have some sliced red onion to put on it. Or some pickles! That chip wasn't really satisfying. My daughter had the Reuben. It's definitely good, especially the meat on it. Not nearly enough sauerkraut taste or texture though, and to me that's the important thing. But a lot of people think the corned beef should be the star of the show, and I definitely recommend it for those. Crinkle fries were really good. The ketchup was kinda bland. Seems like a silly thing to complain of, but I just need more acid in a meal and some Heinz would have been better. My husband was very happy with his fish and chips. He checked first to make sure they have malt vinegar, otherwise he won't order it. I guess i didn't realize how obsessed I am with acid. Never admitted to it before, anyway. Definitely a good place to go for a bar/pub meal, though I would like a little more variety for a more "pub" feel. It's pretty sportsy in there with lots of screens and noise and that's not everyone's cup of tea. By everyone I mean me. I was going to make a comment that eating (is that the same as kissing?) the Blarneystone didn't give me the gift of gab. But now looking at my wall of text about acids, I guess maybe it did? read more

Barrett's definitely lives up to the hype as the best Philly in Omaha! They pack it with ingredients you could easily split it with someone. The teriyaki and schezaun sauce really adds a great flavor along with the cream cheese and peppers! I also got the wings which were super crispy and seasoned perfectly! I am writing this review as I'm finishing my meal that's how good this place is. I will be back to try more of the menu, If you haven't been here get down here asap! read more

After trying a Reuben Sandwich from another place in Omaha, and falling in love with it, I knew I had to try another version from a different restaurant. Unfortunately, the first place was better. Barrett's sauerkraut was a little too strong and less meat. Overall the sandwich and meat to sauerkraut ratio was off. It was still a good sandwich but probably wouldn't return. I also can't honestly remember if the sauerkraut was warm at the other place, it was served warm here and would have preferred it chilled. Overall, service was great, the Reuben was good I'm just not sure I'd return anytime soon. read more

One of the best steak phillys in Omaha. Cool atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend this place.

This was a great place. The food was awesome, and so were the drinks. Waitress came around often and checked on us. Will be back!

Always an inviting environment for LSU fans visiting for the College World Series. Many good options on the menu.

Really nice ambiance. My bf said he really likes the chicken sandwich. Will be returning

A frequent quick bite for lunch or dinner spot that doesn't disappoint. My last visit was especially nice. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Even on a busy Friday night, in the bar and restaurant, they were more than happy to take my to go order fpe my visit to their downstairs music venue, the B-bar. Plenty of variety of bar food choices. Chicken fingers and curly fries are the bomb NICE local bar/restaurant for your list. read more

This place is a delight! The vegetarian Philly cheesesteak is fantastic! If you can handle spice, add jalapeños for even more flavor. Great food and great prices, too! We split an appetizer and sandwich and had three drinks between us for less than $40 after tip. Highly recommend this divey little joint. read more

This place rock! my favorite thing to do is put my hands inside their deep friers! they make it happen!

Our go to local pub. Service is always friendly and fast. Kitchen staff is amazing. Some recent menu changes have been super disappointing. They no longer have fried mushrooms or the homemade flour tortilla chips used in their nachos. Their wings were always some of my favorites, so plump and juicy. But the last couple times have been on the small side. Crossing fingers the favs return soon. That being said there is still plenty of fantastic options available: team chicken Philly bowl with onion petals! read more

The maverick burger may be the best in town. You won't be disappointed! This is a go-to lunch spot in midtown Omaha.

Very happy we found Barrett's! If you love a reuben with deli sliced corned beef- this is the spot for you. Employees were super friendly and on top of service. Environment is a chill and cozy bar with lots of tvs playing sports. Great spot to go hangout! Parking lot is tight- my SUV was fine, but I'd be cautious bringing a 3-row or extended cab vehicle. read more

Was treated to a bday lunch with my family. It was a very busy early lunch and we sat right away. Service was great and the food??? OUTSTANDING! I had the pork tenderloin sandwich (available Thurs/fri) others had beef philly, Rueben, the Blarney Stone, and a kids cheeseburger. It had been so long since I'd been in for lunch and now I shall return very soon. Thank you. read more

This bar is an Omaha staple and they have the best chicken Philly you will in town! It's a unique and truly one of a kind experience there isn't another place you can get a philly like this. I believe it's the best in Omaha and i can't get enough of them! read more

The reuben was delicious, the staff were friendly and hilarious, and I could see how this would be a favorite of the locals. It has an old Irish pub/bar feeling to it. Next time I came back, I will need to try the Philly that I saw ordered at the table next to me read more

Chicken Philly' best you'll ever have! The staff is always friendly. There's a free bus to the Creighton games.

A nice, cozy neighborhood bar with good food. Great for watching Creighton sports. But it really does get loud with the wood ceiling. I had the Reuben. It was good and in Omaha's top ten, but not as good as M's Pub. read more

So I go all over and try foods at places where people brag the food up. The hype met and exceeded my expectations. EVERYTHING we had was some of the best food I've ever had at a bar and grill. For the money, good luck beating these folks. Jess H was our server and she was fantastic! Pops were exchanged without even asking. Anything that was on the table taking up space, she removed right away. Her timing was perfect without having to stop by every 3 minutes. We will be back with more people the next time! Thank You! Note: This was our 1st time at Barrett's.Parking is the only thing I might complain about. read more

If you're looking for a delicious cheese steak, Barrett's Barleycorn Pub & Grill is your place. The cream cheese sauce is fantastic. The bread is super soft and absorbs all of the sandwich juices without getting soggy. I do wish that the outside of the sub roll was a little toasted, but it is still a damn good sandwich. You can get it loaded, which comes with peppers and jalapeños. It doesn't add any extra heat but does give the sandwich a different favor profile. The sandwiches come with fries or chips. These are your standard bar fries. Nothing special. I do like how the droppings of the sandwich fall on the fries. Yum! Very good! I will be back for this sandwich. read more

Service was very good and the food matched the service. Good little vibe in the bar as well. Got pretty busy after we had gotten there but the staff kept right up. I had the beef Philly, which I'm somewhat picky about, and they nailed it. Wife had the buffalo chicken salad, based on a recommendation from the server and she was not disappointed. Next time I'll have to see how the drinks are. We will definitely be going back for a second visit, and then some. But I can't say enough about the service and speed that we received our food. They do an amazing job at this place. Check it out if you haven't. Worth a stop for sure. read more

Barrett's consistently delivers good customer service and excellent bar food. Their Philly Cheesesteak is undeniably the best in Omaha and the Pork Tenderloin sandwich is a novel tasty beast!

Cannot beat Barrets when it comes to Omaha bars and grills. They have a great patio which is handy in the Covid era . Best chicken Philly in the world.
