Happy Hours in Omaha, Nebraska

Omaha runs its happy hour off the food menu as much as the bar. Memoir on Harney Street lists 25% off starters from 3 to 6. First Round on Farnam lists 99-cent wings. Industrial Bar on Industrial Road lists $2 off every burger, and Gilded Feather on South 18th lists $5 off appetizers Sunday through Friday. In a lot of cities the food is a rider on the drink deal; here it is often the deal.

Two corridors hold most of the listings. Howard, Harney, Jackson and Capitol form the Old Market grid, where Howard Street Wine Merchant lists 30% off wines on tap Monday through Saturday and Clio at 1202 Howard lists $9 cocktails from 2 to 6. Farnam Street through the Blackstone District picks up the newer rooms. Beyond that the map spreads west along Maple Road, Center Road and Pacific Street into suburban restaurant bars.

A flat dollar off is the city's default listing by a wide margin, so the numbers underneath it are what matter: Pastime on South 108th lists $2.75 domestics, Scorz Sports Center on Main Street lists $2 draft beer, and Brickway Brewery in the Old Market lists $4 beers with Sunday running all day.

Windows lean to a 4 PM open with 3 PM close behind, and weekend coverage sits around one listing in twelve. Everything here is drawn from public sources rather than from the bars themselves.
