I'm so glad I got an excuse to host an event there so I could see it, it was just absolutely stunning inside. All of the cider we tried were delicious - a lot of flavor but not too sweet. Brooklyn was the event manager who I spoke with throughout the process of booking the venue and also ended up being our bartender (who made great cocktails), busser, and got everything set up and helped us clean up after. This was the perfect event space!

We were looking for somewhere to grab lunch after a visit to the Durham museum and decided to was…read moretime to finally check out Cafe Postale. So glad we did! This was a perfect lunch spot and I will be thinking about my turkey and Brie sandwich for a long time. Our daughter had the Mac and cheese which was clearly homemade and delicious and my husband had the chicken bacon ranch wrap, which he also enjoyed. The vibes are cool, and the photographs displayed really work perfectly to give you a sense of the history of the building. Will definitely be back. Food came out quick and hot.

After many years I finally made it Cafe Postal, and what have I been missing! This place is…read moreabsolutely goregous. They've really kept a lot of the historical elements and pay homage to the postal service. I had a skinny hot latte, and a bagel sandwich for breakfast. I co-worked at a large table for hours, and finished with a chicken pesto sandwich. Both the bagael sandwich and the pesto were great! Nothing tasted microwaved. It was very gourmet. The staff is super friendly and its overall pretty quiet even when busy. I cant wait to go back.

The Durham Museum is in the old Union Station. I'm glad they were able to preserve the building…read morebecause it really is spectacular. There are many permanent displays about Omaha history, and there are train cars you can walk through; enthusiastic docents are often there to answer any questions. There are temporary exhibits here as well, and in the summers they will have something cool that the whole family will enjoy. There are lots of programs here, many of them free with admission or membership. I do recommend getting a membership if you think you might want to come at least a couple times in a year. And you probably will want to! There is a soda fountain/snack bar area. The ice cream is great! The food is okay. It's a museum and not a lunch destination. The museum is located right next to Omaha's Old Market.

It was built in 1931 in the Art Deco style and designed by LA architect Gilbert Stanley Underwood. The museum has lots of photographs and examples of materials used that would be a delight for all those interested in architecture. Downstairs was the train depot and where you can go inside and sit in the train cars. Most of the rooms appeared to be part of their permanent collection, but part of the downstairs area has rotating exhibits. The exhibit on display was "The Negro Motorist Green Book" which you may be familiar with if you watched the 2018 film "Green Book." I had a great time at the museum and would return, although check the calendar as I went when the NE SciFest going on and I prefer calmer museum visits. Still, definitely would recommend checking it out!

Completely suitable to host a huge wedding, FWIW. The decor includes local Italian culture and pictures of Italy proper. They have a huge kitchen. Restaurant sized. There's a bar on the opposite side of the building. Its events get popular quickly. We always arrive promptly now. The one time we came an hour into the event, the line was across the long parking lot and down the street. It moved quickly enough, though, and we met plenty of very friendly, cheerful folks. Do bring cash, or pray that the ATM inside hasn't been used up! It's a cash feed to get in, and a cash bar. I find this to be of no inconvenience, as they declare this when announcing their events, and happy patrons, like me, further that detail. Well worth the visit. It's a delightful Omaha institution.

Check out their hours and days, that they serve. Best in Omaha..

And with like-minded people around you, Dry Spokes is a great place for this in the presence of good company. I commend the owners for making this establishment happen.

My husband and I came here for a drink before heading to a birthday celebration. We had been…read morewanting to check this place out for over a year, so I was glad that we were finally able to do it! The bar is actually much bigger than it looks from the outside. They currently also have the space next door that they use as an event venue (such as open mic the Saturday evening we were there), but that place is available for lease. The decor is nice as well - simple, but cozy with a few couches and some board/card games. Their mocktail menu is huge! There are definitely options to fit every palate. I opted for Collin's Bouquet and Cotton Candy. Both were very good and would highly recommend both. One of the drinks my husband got, the Coconut Cherry Kiss, however, was absolutely delicious! I think it was both of our favorites and one I would get for myself next time for sure. The NA cocktails are definitely not an afterthought here and neither are they just juice full of sugar and more sugar. These are well thought out, have flavor outside of just sweet, and overall are a very good option for anyone who is opting not to drink alcohol, but still doesn't want to miss out on the fun! I'm excited to come back!
