CEDAR OMAHA - Lounge in Omaha - 8726 Countryside Plaza, USA

I found this place on a whim & I’m so glad I did! My bartender Cassie was very friendly & answered my questions regarding the house cocktails, then we continued our conversation throughout my visit. I had both an Espresso Martini & an Old Fashioned, both of which were made from scratch, and they were delicious! I had to stop myself from drinking each cocktail quickly. The place is dim lit, clean, wheelchair friendly, and only charged $12.25/cocktail. I’ll definitely be coming back after my experience this chilly Saturday night!

This place is cozy and fun. Its decorated a bit like an assistant professor's apartment with a vintage HiFi setup including the record player, and crazy art on the walls, and the chairs are a hodgepodge of other collections, equally retro and cool. They make tasty mixed drinks and have a decent selection of wines and a wide selection of craft beers. The music was on point, and they've got big outdoor heaters for the smokers.

I love the vibe of this place, it definitely reminds you of a cozy speakeasy 🥃 I had a Godfather (amaretto and bourbon), and even though it was off menu, they made it perfectly; the manager even complimented me on my choice! The bathrooms are really clean as well and I really enjoyed the live music. Overall great experience and would definitely recommend 👍🏾

Charlie and Abby served us incredible cocktails! The Espresso martini and Cucumber Smash are to die for! We will be back!

Met a friend here last night when I was visiting from KC. The owner was present and he was very friendly and personable. As was the bartender working. The bar has a good vibe and feels very relaxing. Great sections of drinks. If I lived in Omaha I’d be a regular! There was a perfectly sized patio as well. Definitely worth checking out!

This is my kind of place. The lighting is low, vibe is welcoming and relaxing. GREAT drinks, many options, and the bartender was super knowledgeable and even offered alternatives for angostura bitters for future outings. They had minimal food options listed on the chalkboard, but I didn't have anything the night I went, but would definitely explore some food next time! The owner & clientele all were very friendly and open to conversation, too. Just a great experience. Everything about this place was fabulous and I cannot wait to go back and see some live music here!

First time here, and we will definitely return. Staff was great and attentive despite there being a large birthday party there at the time. They have dialed in versions of all the classic cocktails and unique ones for the more adventurous.

I can maybe see why a younger, local crowd might like Cedar, but it was not for me. The music was so loud we were shouting at one another to be heard while less than two feet apart. The service seemed solid, but the drinks were not very good. Walking the smoker gauntlet on the way in and out was also a turn off, but I understand the business needing to cater to that clientele too.
