Stopped in just before they closed to remodel. We were very excited to see their new cocktails that came in these cute little bird cups! The drinks were a little small but nice and strong. It was a little windy up there the day that I went and since it was the last night before they closed, it was a little busy and there was only one bartender on top of that. I'll be excited to see how they transform the bar in the future! read more

We went for their final day before renovations close them down for the summer. The rooftop is neat and has good views of the city, but it is very small, especially when it is at capacity. The bird glasses were a neat touch, but you don't get very much in them. Overall, it's a cute place to stop for a quick drink. read more

Takeoff Rooftop Bar - Menu + Bird Cocktails - Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

This bar was a cute change of scenery. I do wish they did a little more with the decor/seating. It's still cute but it kind of felt like patio vibes when I was expecting something a little more trendy/upscale. My Aperol Spritz had a ton of aperol which I love so that was a win. We had to wait a little bit for a drink there was only one bartender and it was kind of busy, but I didn't mind waiting. I would just highly advise against parking on the parking lot closest to the hotel it was so sketchy and the elevator was broken. read more

Takeoff Rooftop Bar - Aperol Spritz - Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Small rooftop bar with limited seating. There was only one server/bartender who seemed overwhelmed by the fact it was busy on a Saturday night. They have a security guard at the door checking ID's. The drink prices are a bit on the high side. read more

Although the sunset scene was visible from the rooftop, the other buildings looking West of the skyline prevent you from being able to watch the actual factual sunset. Rating this little gem a 3/5 for simple reasons. Namely, the drinks are incredibly expensive, no less than $16/each. The sunset view that is most commonly what I seek in a rooftop bar falls short having no view of the sun as it sets behind the horizon. There is also no food. Positives are that the drinks are made well. I saw the bar tender pick mint from a potted plant on the roof top and mix it in his drinks, have never seen that before. The atmosphere is casual but sophisticated with only a small number of seats, limiting any large groups. This keeps it pretty intimate throughout the evening. Oh! And the bathrooms are fabulous! read more

You cannot beat the views of Omaha from here. Located at the top of the peregrine hotel, this is the ultimate date night spot, with an instagram-worthy backdrop. The drinks I've had here have been super tasty, I liked the coconut cocktail and they also have an expansive wine list. I like that they rotate through spring/summer. It's not open all year round so enjoy while you can. They also don't serve a ton of food up there, if at all. The service is great because it only seats about 30-35 so it's never overwhelmingly busy. read more

The views are pretty good and there was decent seating, but the overall space probably only holds 30-40 people comfortably and felt crowded during the dinner hour. So much so we were standing without seats when our food arrived. The grouper sandwich had great toppings, but I hate when places leave the skin on. Especially when that skin is soggy/chewy. The broccolini was really good, so worth the upcharge. I really loved the drinks. Definitely recommend the smoky cabin! read more

View | Drinks | Chicken Sandwich View: One of the best views in Omaha. You have an unobstructed 270 view of the city. The main view overlooks Creighton's campus and the subsequent park. You get great sunsets here. Therefore, it is an ideal date spot. Drinks: Probably one of the most diverse cocktail menus in the city. There are other places with "More drinks" on the menu. But, the 20-25 drinks on the menu vary greatly. Especially when you mix the view with the food - this is one of the unique drink spots in the city. We both liked the smoke in the cabin drink. Monica had the spicy tequila drink as well - which had a kick. Chicken Sandwich: The chicken sandwich is in the top 3 in the city. The chicken is crispy, but the meat is tender. They come with two sizeable pieces of boneless chicken thighs. They are so large that you could ask for two additional pieces of bread and have two sandwiches. Therefore, bring your appetite. Also, they come with fries that have an old bay or cajun taste. Pro Tip: There is not a lot of space. There are about 8 seats at the bar and 24-30 additional seats. That's about it. And if all seats are filled, the space is a bit tight. Therefore, be earlier rather than later. Pro Tip: There is a restaurant with a similar menu on the property's first floor. Therefore, you can get great food and drinks downstairs if the upstairs is tight. Pro Tip: Ask for their house-made BBQ sauce. It has a unique flavor that is worth a try. read more

This was the first rooftop bar I've been to in Omaha and I must say, it didn't disappoint. The Peregrine is a beautiful little hotel with this hidden, rooftop gem open to the public not just those staying at the hotel. DRINKS : In terms of drinks, I wasn't blown away but I also wasn't disappointed. I got a gin, lemon, and club soda with a bit of syrup in it and thought it was nice and refreshing! My husband got a coke and captain and seemed to like it just fine! The menu is pretty small but you can order your own drink special if you want to and they'll happily do it! TIPS FOR VISITING : I would definitely recommend getting here earlier in the night around 6:30/7 to snag a good spot especially if it's the weekend, otherwise you'll be out of luck considering the space is pretty small. I would say the space is 900-1,000 sq. Ft. so it's definitely not spacious, and if you get here when it's full, well, you're just out of luck. They have a variety of seating choices like high top tables, beach chairs, sofa / comfy chairs, and bar seating. SERVICE : Service was great under the conditions, they were just completely overwhelmed for the demand placed on them. They weren't walking around asking for your order or picking up empty drinks, but they really just didn't have the capacity to for how many people were there. I felt bad for them, I could tell they were stressed! I wasn't bothered by it because they were super nice, if anything I just wish I could've helped them! It gets breezy up there so it's not unbearably hot in the summertime! Overall this is a great spot to have a nice drink with friends and enjoy a beautiful night. read more

Takeoff Rooftop Bar - The left side with patio furniture - Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Takeoff is one of a kind in Omaha. Being that we aren't a major city, our rooftop options are typically only a few floors up, but Takeoff offers stunning downtown views on the 8th floor of the Peregrine Hotel. We were lucky to be here on late September day with clear skies and pleasant temps - we visited twice, once right at opening (5pm), then again around 9. As others have commented, it does get breezy. We had no issue finding seating, but the space is small and I could see this filling up quickly during the weekend. The cocktail menu has a more tropical focus with a lot of their craft options being rum based. Service was friendly and attentive - even letting us grab a drink from the lobby bar and bring it up to enjoy the views prior to official opening time. read more

Great views and drinks. As said before, drinks are WAY too expensive, but that's nothing to do with the bartenders. The one female bartender (Amber) was EXCELLENT while I was there. Extremely polite, gracious, and professional. It's a small, quaint place to just hangout if you have nothing else to do while you're in the hotel or while you're waiting for dinner reservations somewhere. Honestly, it's just cool to be out in the sun and cool breeze and just drink a beverage of your choice. Nothing special, just nice. In my opinion, there really shouldn't be any reviews of anything else because you should know what you're getting when you come here. read more

Very knowledgeable bartenders who can help get you exactly what you want, even if it's not listed on their menu. Pricey, but worth the cost for a special occasion. The bartender had lots of great recommendations for restaurants throughout the city as well. read more

I was determined to visit this place after hearing that there was a new rooftop bar in town. As most people who live in Omaha know, there really aren't that many that exist. The ones that do exist are pretty fantastic, and this bar is no exception. It is located downtown at the rooftop of the beautiful Peregrine Hotel. The decorations are nice and trendy, there is a decent view to look at as you sip on your drinks. They have a great selection of beers, wine, and delicious cocktails to choose from. I had a glass of Pinot Grigio to start with and then a Mai Tai to follow, and both were delicious. While they do not serve meals, they do have some snacks that you can order if you're hungry. If you plan on visiting, keep in mind that they have limited hours and are only open on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 5pm to 1am. It's definitely worth checking out! read more

This is interesting, so you walk in the hotel get in the elevator and goto the roof to get to this bar. I am pretty sure this is kinda meant more for hotel guests instead of off the street patrons. It is small like other reviews have said. We are talking like 50' length by 20' width. 75% of it is probably covered where the barbis actually at and the rest is wide open. You will get a great view of First National tower and trees in the distance. Its not a 360 degree view. read more

Gorgeous view and great bartender. With few rooftop bars in Omaha, this was a downtown treat. Will be back soon.

This was a cute little rooftop bar in Omaha. It wasn't overly busy because it was cold, but it is a small space. We went on their last weekend open for the season so drinks were 50% off. The drinks were great, but there wasn't a lot of choices. The bar is located above the Peregrine hotel, which is also lovely. read more

This is a nice addition to the Omaha bar scene. I believe its the highest rooftop bar in town. The views are great but the drinks are mediocre and expensive. Just understand that your paying for the novelty of being on a rooftop bar. It's also nice that its open to the public. Just park, enter the elevator and hit the roof button. read more

I'm so happy to see a rooftop in Omaha that's above the third floor! The views are great and the drinks and really yummy! The price is a little steep but you're paying for cool views, high-quality craft cocktails, and fun vibes. The bathrooms are nice too read more

Stopped here for drinks with friends. It is definitely not a huge area so not a great place for a larger group but I highly recommend this place for a date night or drink with a few friends. The views are STUNNING and it truly makes you feel like you are transported to a rooftop in a big city. The ambiance is amazing. The drinks were just okay and service at the bar was slow. I had to try multiple times to get my order in. 5 stars for ambiance and views. 3 stars for drinks and service. read more

Terrible! The service was lacking. The wine was rancid in a plastic cup... we won't be back.
