Granita
Audrey E.

Quite possibly my favorite coffee shop in Lincoln. Walking distance from campus and settled downtown, it's quick and easy to get to and has some of the best coffee around. I started on the granitas but now my favorite is the Iced Chocolate Milano Notaccino (which is similar to a frappe that tastes like Milano cookies)! The best vibes in a coffee shop in downtown Lincoln - the back room is perfect for studying in a more quiet setting and the front has a much of tables for independent work or chatting with friends. The service is always super quick so even if you've got 10 minutes to get in and out you should be good.

One for now and one to go!

Their cromlettes still delicious! Came here this morning for a suaisage one and it was served warm with a cup of almond matcha latte! The place is so friendly and they are quick, plenty of seating in back too.

Cromelettes, latte and coffee
Amanda R.

Grabbed coffee and breakfast here while in Lincoln. I ordered an iced oat milk latte and the sausage cromelette. Both were very good. The latte was not overly sweet and the cromelette was fluffy and light. Really wanted to try the spinach and feta cromelette, but they were sold out. Get there early to have your pick!

This is usually our sunday coffee/breakfast stop enroute fr horse stables to event center east of town. Cromellette is our go-to food choice here. Half dozen varieties to pick from. Have never known of this cromellette until here. We really like. Baked roll, near baseball size, with fillings of different choices. Tried bread pudding today. Never has been a favorite. This is good but not more wanted another day. Always good coffee and honey had here. We like.

Sausage, Egg & Gouda Cromlette
Claudia S.

We got to Lincoln a little earlier than we'd planned, so decided to pick a place at random to kill some time. We ended up downtown and stopped at The Coffee House because it happened to have a perfect parking spot available. There are a lot of seating options in this oddly-arranged place. Funniest part is, to order you stand in line in what I believe to be the narrowest part of the whole building while behind you is the coffee-fixins bar. So, you're trying to pay attention to your order taker and get your stuff while being slammed by people who already have their stuff and are trying to get their milk and sugar. It's kind of like a coffee house mosh pit. We found a seat in a back area. Our table rocked pretty bad, but since we were only going to be there 15 minutes or so, we hung on tight. We ordered a couple of their Cromlettes, a filled croissant. One was sausage, egg & cheese, the other was peach cream cheese. I'm not really someone who orders croissants, but they seemed like a novelty item. They were actually quite good. There were some herbs and spices on top of the savory one that were a little too strong (in my opinion), but that could be easily brushed off. It's a pretty part of town. I'd recommend it for a try, especially if you're into local coffee spots.

Mold on my sour cream coffee cake
Amanda W.

This was an unexpected gem of a find in Lincoln. You walk in and you forget you're in Nebraska. It's bigger than you first expect as well. Friendly workers. I ordered a medium iced Voltaire & used my check in on Yelp for a free pastry item. I chose the sour cream coffee cake - this is where it went from 5 stars to 3 stars.... the first few bites were yummy and moist and full of flavor. I broke off a top piece and there is mold along the edge (photo attached for reference). Fingers crossed nothing happens. I'm an optimist and this stuff happens so I am still giving a decent review. The Voltaire was very sweet & mocha tasting. Make sure you like that before ordering. I did enjoy it.

Cromlette with bacon, Gouda, and spinach.
Kelli R.

Cromlettes are an amazing invention. Puffed croissant pastries filled with various omelette combinations and cooked with an herb crust. Divine! My drink was a caramel macchiato latte. Didn't need to add or subtract a thing. Perfectly served.

One of my favorite restaurants in Lincoln. I recently visited the green gateau for a rehearsal…read moredinner. The service was kind, quick and attentive and the food was delicious- per usual! We had Brussels sprouts and calamari for appetizers. Both dishes were crispy and had great flavor. The sprouts had a sweet balsamic glaze which complimented the earthiness well. The calamari had an airy, crispy breading and a plethora of sauces to choose from for dipping, my favorite being the cocktail sauce which was savory and tangy. For the entree I had a lettuce wrapped cheeseburger and I was really impressed. The beef was juicy and fresh while the condiments were fresh as well. The fries were so good, too! They were crispy, seasoned well and tasted amazing with the ranch. For dessert we had crème brûlée, YUM! The sugar coating was a perfect amount of waxy and sweet, and balanced well with the vanilla custard. The custard was creamy, decadent and super satisfying. The vibe of the restaurant is homey, upscale and warm, great place for a celebration or date night.

Each one is so good. We threw down at this restaurant. The drinks and service is just as good. The team here knows what they are doing. They served us up quick and gave me a very memorable birthday brunch. The only downside is parking, especially if it's a busy weekend! Come early, plan ahead. There's limited free street parking. I strongly recommend making a reservation online. We had one, but still had to wait about 15-20 minutes for a table. The food and experience was worth the wait.

I appreciate that there are good vegetarian and vegan options here. The best thing that I ever had…read morewas the cauliflower steak but they stopped carrying it. Right now they have a cabbage steak on their menu but it's served with bacon so I'm gonna have to go back and see if I can order that without the bacon. I still dream about that cauliflower steak with the side of rutabaga. One of the best things I've ever eaten anywhere. But it hasn't been on the menu for a long time. The shining star on the menu : the deviled eggs and the rotating seasonal deviled eggs. It's smart to go during happy hour and get deviled eggs and really well-crafted cocktails! The walls are decorated with musicians, and the staff wear old band T-shirts, which is neat but other than that, the music theme doesn't play out anywhere else. The restaurant doesn't have live music, there's no music or musicians in the menu names. I've had brunch here twice, and both times I went with the banana bread French toast topped with espresso butter. It's rich and delicious. Last time I had a side of scrambled eggs and they were prepared & seasoned well. The brunch buffet is fairly standard: fruit, pastry, eggs, meats, biscuits & gravy. Nothing really stands out about the brunch service here, whereas lunch and dinner are stellar.

I thought this spot in Lincoln, NE was quite good. Nothing out of this world but a solid, solid 4…read moreout of 5 stars! I had the Beef Burgundy, and it was delicious. Root veggies, mashed potatoes, yum! But what stole the show for me was the potato bacon soup. Wow! One of the best I've ever had I must say. Super friendly staff, coupled with a cool music vibe ambience, and you got yourself a nice little restaurant in the haymarket area of town. I would highly recommend coming here if you're in town. You can't go wrong.
