Ice House - Sports Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

See all

Decent bar food, good service, but freezing cold in there. It was 62F inside on Sunday, we downloaded an app just to check since it was so cold. Either they are too cheap to run heat or they don't want people staying for a full football game. Bring a coat. read more

This is a great place to go for Husker games and some good food! My boyfriend and I come here for any Husker game we don't have tickets for. The crowd is always lively and fun and the first touchdown they hand out shots to everyone for free. The food here is also really good! The taco salad is massive and my boyfriend is a big fan of the wings. read more

Ice House - Sports Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Ice house is amazing! They servers are always great, service is always timely, and food is bomb! My only complaint is they need to update the menu, there are a few items on there that they don't serve anymore, other than that it's a great place to go watch the game! Each booth has an individual tv so you can watch the game you specifically want! We go all the time during football season! read more

I'll admit that I don't really care for sports bars to begin with, so I usually don't even bother reviewing them. And if I am pressed to review them, I am as fair as possible in keeping in mind how the bar would appeal to the intended crowd and how well it performs in that task. Unfortunately, this place is just nothing more than mediocre, and that's mainly due to the service and food. With as many TVs as there are in the place, you should be able to catch whatever game you want to watch. A lot of sports logos all over the place and neon signs to keep the place visually stimulating. In terms of seating, they have a lot of high-top tables with stools pulled around them, as well as a section with booths. There is also a lot of seating around the perimeter of the bar, too. I wish I could say I've had an enjoyable experience here at least once, but out of the four times I've been here, I haven't. This is mostly due to the sub-par service and completely average bland bar food. The last visit really takes the cake, though. Our group of friends decided to meet up there for our friend's birthday. Obviously not my first pick, but it's what he wanted, so we all were happy to go for him. When we first arrived, we settled in a booth, but as more of our group arrived, we had to move over to a high-top table. Our server said it would be no problem, and everything would work out fine that way. Once we were seated at the table, no one seemed to acknowledge us, and I was completely unaware of who our server was at that point (or if we even had one). Eventually, food runners showed up with everything we had ordered while we were at the booth earlier. Everyone began to chow down, and I reached a point where I had gotten to the bottom of my water glass and was very thirsty. Same story with my girlfriend. It would've been nice to have some liquid to go with our food, so I started craning my neck around to see who our server might be so I could flag him or her down. I didn't see anyone who might be working our area, so I waited it out about 15 minutes to see if a server would stop by for the proper check on refills and ask if we need anything else. When that didn't happen, I finally decided to just take matters into my own hands and go straight to the bar carrying our water glasses to get them refilled quickly. When I approached the bar, the bartender was on the other side, pouring beers and making some mixed drinks, but she was by no means overwhelmed. She seemed to be purposely ignoring me, and once she finally started looking at me, she kept giving me dirty looks and not coming over to help me. She finally walked over to me with a very annoyed look on her face, not ever actually asking if I needed help, but had that "what do you want???" type of vibe. I presented the two empty glasses and asked her if I could get refills on our waters. She stared at them for a moment and then snatched them away, saying, "Okay. But just so you know, you have a server" and then stormed away. She stormed away too quickly to hear my retort, "Oh, really? Because I couldn't tell." I saw her carry the glasses to the other side of the bar where she started talking to some girl who allegedly was our server. You could tell it was a very tense conversation, where she kept pointing in my direction and looking back at me as she appeared to be ranting to our server -- most likely directing her venom at me, as if I had disrupted the whole operation by going straight to her. I couldn't overhear the conversation. She then handed the glasses to the server for her to refill them. So apparently my request was so backwards that the bartender couldn't even be bothered to just spray some water into our glasses and hand them back to me. It had to instead become an ordeal. I didn't realize that I had just escalated my thirst crisis into DEFCON 1. Like, this was a really big deal to her. The server then filled the glasses and brought them to me. After that, this person who was now our server showed up at our table regularly to check up on us. She was at least nice to us, but it would've been nice to see her earlier so the bartender wouldn't have lost her mind when I sabotaged her well-oiled operation of not dealing with customers. Anyhow, after all is said and done, I know a lot of people in our group still love the place for their sports bar fix, and the mediocre food is enough to fill you up for a meal. Unless another friend requests this as their birthday venue, I am steering far clear of this worthless place. read more

If your goal of the night is sports, semi over priced booze and being ogled by drunk dudes in jerseys then Ice House is the place! I lost a bet with the boyfriend and went along to watch a hockey game at the bar. Not one of my shining moments but I'm not one to bitch and moan so I made the best of it and ordered Malibu and Diets like they would run out of them at the stroke of midnight. We sat with a gentleman who probably should have been cut off of his whiskey intake about 7 whiskeys ago and his new friend from out of town who I think was waiting for the guy to go to the bathroom so he could eat the rest of his food. I for one did not partake in anything from the menu so I cannot speak about the quality. No matter. Again I make lemonade with my lemons. I soon made friends with all bar-seated patrons and even learned to follow the game a bit. Overall, the bar staff is very friendly and attentive, the drinks are priced for a sports bar and customers fit the stereotype. I was a bit confused by all the small children running amok but who am I to judge? Oh wait, that's what I'm doing right now. :) read more

The Ice House is a sports bar, plain and simple. They have started offering comedy shows from like Z-list and local comedians, which is typically less entertaining than open mic night at Alcoholics Anonymous. The drink specials are not special or particularly creative. You can usually tell which wine and spirits sales rep is sleeping with the owner, because the Ice House offers some bastardized concoction from one of their products. I'm not saying you should avoid it, but really, there are much better places to hang out in Omaha. read more

Ice House - Lets go mets! Lets go mets! - Sports Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Great meal tonight and the server was THE BEST ! Brought a buddy in from out of town and he wants to already go back.....My 90.00 check I thought was a value for drinks, appetizer's and 3 meals. See ya tomorrow I guess. ha read more

We were in the ice house last night and I have to say that Alex was a phenomenal waitress. She was Johnny in the spot and we had friends coming snd going all the time over the evening . She is an asset to your company. Thanks Alex read more

They have the BEST fried pickles. Remember that it is pub food but with an extensive menu. They are under new ownership and it is really, really good! Great prices! Fun atmosphere!! read more

We love coming here for their half priced appetizer happy hour. They have amazing food. Have t had anything yet we don't like. Our usual is normally fried pickles, Italian nachos, char buff wings and garlic Parmesan wings. Yummy! read more

Ice House - Sports Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Stopped in tonight, Sunday evening at 5:30pm, to order the only item worth eating which is The Boss pizza and to have a beer while waiting. The place was over capacity and nobody was wearing a mask with the exception of one man I witnessed who walked to the restroom and then back to his table. I had 20 minutes to sit and watch people. I was never greeted. I was never offered a drink. This place is a disaster and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. If at anytime in history service should excel- it is now. I won't be back. During my 20 minute wait I ordered a pizza from papa john's off of 90th. It was ready when I arrived. read more

Service was slow and poor. Waited over 45 minutes for our order. When I asked the waitress for the ETA for our meal, she said "Not sure, it's game night." Food was okay.... the atmosphere is great. Huge sports bar with TV's everywhere, even at your personal table. read more

Horrible service, waitress had no clue on what she was doing. Maybe over worked or too embarrassed because they need to wear short shorts. Crappy food need I say anymore. Asked for fried pickles, they forgot finally got them after the meal was done. Too bad this was a great place when they first opened. They simply lost their direction. Not even worthy of a star but I had to mark 1 star in order to post this review, go figure. Bathroom are disgusting as well. Oh as I am writing this kids are running around like its freakin playground. read more

The drinks are fine. I especially enjoy their specials - Long Island iced tea pitcher for $10? What a deal. And it's actually well made! Their food/service is a different story. I've been in more than a handful of times and EVERY TIME they cannot seem to get my order right. I keep giving them chances and want to like this place (out of convenience that it's right by my home), but they keep disappointing me. The servers act like they don't care and question you as if you made the mistake. I've found a closer and better bar. Haven't been back since. read more

Ice House is a big sports bar that does all the sports bar things that a sports bar should. There are TVs all over the place, hanging on walls, over the bar, even at each of the booths. The server we had was friendly, helpful, and timely. The downside of the Ice House doing all the sports bar things that a sports bar does is that they make sports bar food, which is to say they offer very boring and mediocre options. If you've been to a few sports bars before, you can just about order here without even looking at a menu. Want some BBQ wings? No problem. Philly cheese-steak? Of course. Oversized cheeseburger? Coming right up. Just because I'm giving them three stars, don't think that I'm on the fence about them. Truth be told, the Ice House is as good a sports bar as you'll find in Omaha. The unfortunate thing is that even at its most masterful level, the sports bar as an entity still only warrants four out of five stars. With that in mind, I award the Ice House three stars for being a great edition of a definitively mediocre idea. read more

The quality at this place has reached an all time low.. after 11 years this place has really won the minimal effort award. There's a hundred other sports bars in Omaha. Give this one a pass. read more

Great place to watch football and beer! Alot of tvs. Game room was big an lots of space for seating. Does get packed Fridays and Saturdays.

They have the best honey BBQ wings, they are SO good! They have a lot of tasty things on the menu. The BBQ chicken pizza is good too. There are TVs everywhere. They have a limited number of booths that are highchair friendly, but the booths are huge so the whole family can enjoy pizza & wings (or the kids menu). Dad can drink a beer while we watch the game and the kids get to watch whatever they want on the smaller tv that's right at the table. Everyone wins! I highly recommend the burger with the onion ring, bacon and BBQ sauce on it. It was seriously awesome. Their onion rings and fries are really good. We've yet to order anything we didn't like. I just wish their cocktail menu was better. It was a bit too froofy. It needs more drinks on it like a zombie or mai tais or something. read more

I went to the Ice House on a Husker Saturday and couldn't believe how good the service was. We had multiple waitresses stop by and even with the massive crowd our drinks were never empty (for an Irishman that's a must)! I had the cheeseburger and it was fresh, delicious and hot. My compliments to the owners and staff who really have it together for a busy game day. Other establishments should come in and see how good service is done. read more

Stopped in for a few drinks with some friends before one went off to California for the summer. I had a great time, our group was in the back room with the pool table. The server was amazing, always made sure we had enough drinks and checked up on us every 20 minutes or so. I would defiantly go back with a group of friends. Unfortunately I did not try any food besides the fries and they were pretty delicious. Next time I will have to go there for an event on TV. read more

This was the worst dining experience my siblings and I have ever had in Omaha. It took 20 minutes for anyone to come visit our table. Our only round of drinks took another 20 minutes and even then one of us had to go up to the bar to get the beer he actually ordered. When our appetizer came out, the server gave us plates that were extremely dirty. Crumbs everywhere. Picture attached. I feel the need to iterate that these plates had not been used (by us). We then ordered dinner, which I must say the food was decent, but took at least 30-40 minutes to come out. Another one of us requested chipotle ranch, and not once but twice, she delivered buffalo sauce? Even after pointing it out the first time, and asking for chipotle ranch again. The kitchen did their job. The servers did not. Definitely will never come here again. read more

Just left unhappily.. The genius manager decided he would rather play the NFL football game on the big screen with sound while the Royals game was on. That is the Royals PLAYOFF game and last time I checked Omaha was home of the Royals minor league team- unbelievable.. Ton of Royals fans in there- not happy... This guy was more worried about what he wanted to watch instead of the customers.. read more

Britney (Sp?) is the name of the amazing server from my last review. We were in the other day and didn't have her as a server but she still made time to come over say hello and make sure we had everything we needed! We don't go super often so this was awesome to be remembered. Our server that night has gotten us a couple times and never leaves us disappointed (skinny, long, blonde, straight hair). Quick refills, 100% correct order always, friendly servers... love this place! read more

The lady was a blast to be around only 7 dollar burger night I think yes! I was stocked the burger was a little to well done but I was not going to complain French fries on my chest day was a plus and they were so good! The seasoning was fantastic I highly recommend this sports bar! read more

Went to ice house for a birthday party. Didn't know they did birthday parties. Wednesday is half priced drink and pizza night so it was very busy. I'm surprised at the great service that was provided considering how busy they were. Ice house is not number one on my list however it was a good experience and kicked their ranking up a notch. read more

The spicy garlic wings and pepperoni pizza were both good and the Wednesday half price pizza is a solid deal. They do try to turn the tables quickly, but that makes for prompt service and not being left in the dark by a server. I was never waiting on my server and the beers were 2 bucks for IPA. I'll definitely be back. read more

Ice House - Not a drink taken... - Sports Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I want to rate a zero but it's not an option. Worst customer service I've ever had from a manager. Over salted food. And still charge you for the sandwhich that you didn't eat. Charge you for a double shot drink when you only get single shot. Must have so many customers they don't care about keeping people coming back. Disappointed read more

First Thursday night football game! You walk in and seat yourself. Waitress was quick to give attention to us because the game had already started. She took our drink orders and quickly brought them out. Seemed like a great start, App Chips and beef queso! Tasted amazing and homemade. Cheap and worth the bite Frozen onion rings as well, fried right and came with i think a house ranch dressing with a little Zing Boom spice. Not bad... Kids didnt mind the taste either We thought pizza because kids love pizza! Homemade pizza it is! For 3 small kids I ordered just a small 6 piece cheese pizza for them For 3 adults i choose todo 2 speciality pizza's Half Meat lovers and half Philly steak, Ill surly be back to have that combo again because it was amazing When the pizza came out it looked very tasty but i had to wait to eat because the our waitress scotty forgot to put in my kids pizza.... This was very disappointing. I always believe in feeding the kids first because they start to get tiresome of having to wait around. So we waited for the pizza to come out to start to enjoy our pizza,. It tasted great... I like icehouse and the surroundings. I felt comfortable being there and the prices are great. Since it was my birthday i was offered a free shot... who doesnt like free right? When i recieved the check, the 5.00 dollar shot was added on. Did she not think i was going to overlook the check and see if everything was correct. I pointed this out to her and to it was changed. All in all it was a great time and i will come back but i wont be looking to have scotty as our waitress again. 6.00$ pitchers of beer!!! read more

My favorite sports bar to watch Creighton games or really, any sporting event. My favorite is by far their beer battered fries with ranch. They are a "must have" every time I come to Ice House. Their wings were pretty good too but not a fan of the pizza. Other than that, typical sports bar atmosphere. read more

This is easily the best bar I've ever come across in Omaha. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is great, and the staff is the best around. The bartenders are particularly amazing. They have awesome specials throughout the week and even on their busiest days (Sunday football) the service is still outstanding. The wings, the pizza, and the smiles are to die for. read more

This is our place, the one where everyone knows your name. Our family goes on Wednesday nights because of half price pizzas, beer and appetizers. The wait staff is amazing and will come up and ask if we want the same drinks as last time because they remember us! Their pizza is awesome, I recommend the Chicken Philly Cheese Pizza with a side of ranch! However our new favorite is The Boss. In addition to their normal pizza line up they have pizzas of the month to try, our favorite is their March one.... The Ruben. This is a must eat place for everyone! read more

I went in to this dump to have a beer with a co-worker. I have never in my life experienced 2 more unfriendly and rude women behind the bar. Talk about not caring, no eye contact, and stuck up. I don't know why, they weren't attractive. I think I offended them when I asked them to clean up the previous persons spills and mess. I got a crusty look from one of them. The rail in front of the bar surface was also sticky and I got another look when I asked her to clean that also. I had to ask about 3 times to look for a particular sporting event. I finished my beer and got the heck out of there. I will take my $$ else where. I will never venture anywhere near this dive ever again! read more

Always have a good experience here, we usually go in the evenings during the week. Usually a small to medium crowd inside. Appropriate number of wait staff working, they are always nice, friendly and check in with the patrons often. Pitchers are priced right, the last time we went on a Thursday domestic pitchers were $6.50. read more

Went back her again on a Tuesday. Much better service. Can't complain at all. Emily was our waitress and she did a fantastic job. Faith restored in this place! read more

My man and I love this place so much! We especially love the staff.. Our main bartenders Sam and Nicole are great. Mike the Kitchen Manager is also our fave.. Keaton the cook.. Everyone makes it a great experience and we get down on some Keno. It's also always clean which is really important for this home girl read more

Great food, great ambience, good clientele and staff plus there are tv's everywhere! They have cable AND satellite so you never miss your favorite game due to outages! Always recommend the burgers and pizza!! read more

Fairly good food, service can be slow at times. The beer-battered fries were really good.
