    Pims Cup 2

    I've visited The Tavern twice now, most recently this past weekend. Each visit, the bartenders have been great and super friendly. If you want a fun bar that makes great drinks, definitely check this place out! The bar is located in a cool old building right in Old Market along 10th Street. They have a great specialty drink list on the wall, which seems to change periodically. I've always enjoyed the drinks I've ordered. In addition to their mixed drinks, they also have beers on tap if that's more your thing. The Tavern can be busy, especially on Saturday nights, though has plenty of tables, bar seating, and taller tables to stand at. Other nights are quieter, which are perfect for enjoying the board and card games they have with friends! Periodically they also have events, which are a lot of fun. I recently went to a Halloween themed party, which had a small cover, though included cute party favors like witches hats and fun glasses! They also had a DJ which was a lot of fun. If you're looking for a fun night out in the Old Market area, definitely check this place out!

    Visiting and this was one of my favorite places I grabbed a drink at. David was great to talk with, English Garden Marg (double tall) was amazing. Music being a smidge lower would've been nice to hear better, but overall great atmosphere, great drinks, awesome service

    The lights hanging from this beautiful old building are a disgrace.

    Good beer and good cocktails. Absolutely nothing to say about the service... Well maybe that it was polite but as standard as standard can get.

    The rude girl
    Katia W.

    Visiting my brother from San Diego, CA. Told me this bar was his favorite spot so he brought me here. Really disappointed in the customer service by this girl in pic. Sat down in front of her to order a drink (the bar was not busy). She helped an African American lady with a red coat that was next to us first. After helping her I figured "okay cool we next" NOPE! She skipped us and helped the next mother fucker. Keep in mind the bar is not busy!! Then she comes back again to our side , we are still sitting on the same spot with card out in her face, and she SKIPPED us again! Not sure wtf was her deal but she kept doing that for 25 min until I had to walk out before I popped off on her. Something my brother did not want me to do. Finally she decides to start a conversation with my brothers friend once she sees us leaving, again everything about her was very disrespectful to me and that type of attitude is considered rude on the west coast so I was not having it. Brother was so sad it was truly disappointing. So if you are visiting Omaha stay away from here, you're treated nicer at country bars like bush washers tbh .

    Creative bartender. Christina is excellent!!!

I think this spot would be great for a date night! The bartenders were amazing. They were incredibly friendly, explained the drinks, and checked in on us throughout the night. You can tell they really care about the experience of patrons. Our espresso martinis were great and we really enjoyed them! Every time I've visited, their cocktails have been consistently good, and I love that they offer a seasonal menu to switch things up. They also have a patio that looked like it would be so nice in the summer, but it was too cold for us to sit outside this time. We both loved the decor and overall aesthetic. It feels upscale without being too intimidating, Overall, such a great experience and definitely a place we'll keep coming back to!

They have built in TVs in a grotto style patio with more lounge seating. There is a bar indoors and one on the patio. I've seen live bands play outside during a cocktail reception and the energy is contagious. A must see intimate venue.

Whether you're just stopping in for a drink or planning to linger, Trap Room nails that cozy, quirky neighborhood bar energy.
