Now I’m putting this under night life because it hands down has the best view of any bar in town! If your looking to start your night with a martini or two & take in the Omaha skyline before heading out on the town, this place is it! Warning, if you go there hungry you’ll probably stay for dinner once you smell the ribeyes cooking on the open grill! Gets me every time! Google search & you’ll see the photos of the beautiful downtown Omaha views!

This is a train museum with lots of Omaha & midwest history. I'd say this museum is for kids over 8, younger kids will get board. My kids loved and appreciated it a lot more when they were old enough to understand the history.
