They couldn't answer questions we had about cocktail items. The garnish in my selected cocktail was so big, it could have adorned the front hall of a Barbie dream house at Christmas. We were approached at a point that bordered on harassment by the young, naive waiter--incessantly interrupting our conversation in one of the tiniest, intimate public lounges in NE. Awareness was severely lacking. The bathroom is now unspeakably stinky and dirty, reeking of urine. The tiny hand washing area is tattered and dirty, trash was spilling over the edge of the can. It's fast becoming a shell of its former self. What a sad thing. Perhaps the other room is owned by someone new?

Only initials on the front door and a little neon sign that says vacancy. We came very early (probably right after it opened) and it was dark and cozy inside. Only one couple was at the bar and my friend and I sat first at the bar to look at cocktail options. I love that all they're cocktails are named after historic people or places. Very cool. The service was terrific! Bartender let us take our time to decide. I ordered a "Willa Cather", which was a cocktail with St Germain,prosecco and hibiscus! So tasty! My friend ordered the "Kate Martin" which was whiskey and ginger. Loved the vibe and will definitely return next time I'm in town!

They have a huge selection of martinis, and it's always hard to pick just one. Every drink I've tried has been perfectly balanced and served with a smile. Whether you're heading here before a show or just want to unwind somewhere with character, The Starlite Lounge never disappoints. It really is martini time every time I'm here!

There are chess boards set up on several tables and a table ready for a game of rock-em sock-em robots. The seating is loungy and comfortable, the decor is kind of minimalist industrial, yet still welcoming The service is spectacular and there is a party space I would love to use. If I lived in Lincoln I'd be here often. I don't want to spoil it, but when you go there please make sure you ask the owner why it is named The Post. His story is awesome!! And he has a terrific selection of tequila that you can take home with you. He has Tequilas that I've not been able to find in any other liquor store in the Omaha or Kansas City area. Oh yeah, in addition to chess nights, they also have live music.

I love the Post! The music, seating, and service are top notch. Best old fashions in the city too.read more
