M's Pub is a staple of Omaha. In addition to the prime location in Omaha's Old Market, the flavors of this menu are unlike any other!

PROOF
120 South 31st Avenue, Omaha, NE 68131, (402) 933-5969

This prohibition era style bar specializes in whiskey and craft cocktails. While it's a short cab ride away, this outdoor patio is worth the ride! (Oh and the owner is a dear friend!)

They've got lions, tigers and bears...oh my! Ranked #2 in the United States, this really is a fabulous stop. I would encourage a half day ticket because while you may be limited on time, the aquarium is amazing!
Flying Timber Axe Throwing
1507 Farnam Street, Omaha, NE 68102, (402) 933-5577
Don't knock it 'til you try it. We haven't been to this specific location but we absolutely LOVE embracing the Midwest charm of some good wood and sharp objects!
