While on a business trip to Omaha, I needed a place where I could work for several days outside of…read moremy hotel. I truly couldn't believe my luck when I found The Reading Room. This place is a spectacular little world of wonder and adventure. Over the course of my trip, I got to experience so many different sides of it. I attended an event on a Friday night, enjoyed specialty drinks, and watched a Shakespeare performance. I had so much fun! During the weekdays, I took a few meetings there while enjoying matcha and snacks. On another day, I simply came in to relax and unwind. What I loved most is that The Reading Room somehow manages to be a place for everyone. It's somewhere to meet new friends, get some work done, have a quiet moment alone, or come out and have fun at an event. Kids, adults, cocktail lovers, tea drinkers, readers, remote workers. There's a little something for everyone. And Sam, the owner, is absolutely fantastic. I was spoiled with great conversation, genuine hospitality, and impeccable service throughout my visits. I came to Omaha looking for somewhere to work and left feeling like I had discovered one of the city's hidden gems. I couldn't ask for a better place to spend my time.

I chose "Marianna's Marvelous Old Fashioned" which was delicious and also strong. Staff was really nice, and I felt comfortable there.

Leftover holiday décor (maybe from multiple holidays?) and a setup full of TVs, a pool table, and darts gave it more of a sports bar feel. To their credit, the bar itself is impressive, and the cocktail menu is clearly curated with intention. But overall, it feels more like a dressed-up dive bar than a polished spot. We played pool and had a good time, but honestly, it might serve them better to embrace the casual scene and rebrand--maybe just "The Lion"--to better fit the crowd and vibe. There's potential here, just needs clearer direction.

The host was very friendly and answered all of my questions while we waited to be seated inside the bar area. Upon Entry the ambiance was dim lighting and very whimsical. For me the seats are very uncomfortable and low. I really didn't like that. No back support unless you sit on the side against the wall but you are really close to other customers. It's a pretty tight nit spot. Drinks are very pretty and many options to choose from. This would be a place to go to just for the experience not necessarily for the drinks.

(Just because someone put their name in 30 minutes after I sing my first song, and it's before my second song doesn't mean that they can go first. Grrr, hate that.) The drinks are cheap & strong. I felt tipsy after one and a half and I'm no light-weight. The people are descent, not too many sceezy people, a good mix of ages (from 21-50 or so), And if you should be there for karaoke, they are not bad singers either, so you won't go deaf. The staff is friendly and fun too. The best part is that this place is hardly ever crazy packed. There may be rare times that it is, but I've only seen that happen maybe twice. (PS-Singing's on Saturday's and they're thinking of doing it on Wednesday's too. )

Inkwell is my favorite small, moody cocktail bar in Omaha. My friend and I discovered it because…read moreit's halfway between our houses, and it quickly became our go-to spot. The Old Fashioneds are some of the best I've had anywhere, and Aaron is one of the most talented mixologists in the city. In fact, Aaron is a big reason many people keep coming back. He's exceptional at what he does, and every drink reflects that level of skill. The espresso martinis are fantastic, but the "Not Espresso Martini" was an unexpected favorite that kept us coming back. One of the things I love most is that the menu changes seasonally, giving us a reason to come back and work our way through the new cocktails to find our latest favorite. The bartenders are knowledgeable, welcoming, and clearly passionate about their craft. The atmosphere is cozy, intimate, and full of character. There are actual typewriters throughout the space, which perfectly fits the literary theme and adds to the experience. As a fun touch, my friend always receives a book with her receipt and reads a random paragraph before we leave. It's those little details that make Inkwell feel like a hidden gem rather than just another bar. If you're looking for creative cocktails, talented bartenders, and a unique atmosphere, Inkwell is absolutely worth a visit. Such a vibe.

I've been to Inkwell Bar many times and it's been a reliable go-to for a while now. It's a small,…read moreintimate space--maybe seats around 30, with room for more if people are standing--so don't come expecting a big, loud bar. That's actually part of the appeal. Drinks are solid and consistently well made. Nothing gimmicky, just good cocktails done right. The ambiance is fair but comfortable, and the size makes it ideal if you're looking to have a real conversation with someone without yelling over music or crowds. Location is another plus. It's very convenient if you want a drink before or after a Westside game, or just need a low-key stop nearby. If you're after a cozy, intimate spot with good drinks and a relaxed vibe, Inkwell Bar delivers.
