Talk about an origional small town good food type of place. It has been there ever since I can remember. The origional owner invented the drive through window, untill he lost or never patented it. It still looks like the same one that it started with. The strange thing is that you order from the driver side and pick it up on the passanger side. Their claim to fame is the tastee sandwich, kind of a loose meat not quite sloppy joe kind of thing. And let us not forget the onion chips and malts. There are a bunch of quirky things that make it origional. Your order is written on a slip of paper and put into a carrier and sent through an air tube to the back. When your order is made it is sent along a conveyor belt to the cashier. They have an olde timey juka and always a retro pinball machine. Ooooh I spent so many quarters there.

Located just north of 48th and Holdredge.

In a location that has a few really great bars this place is definately a gathering place. The food is your typical bar food with specials on the weekends that are a good deal. I like the bacon cheese burger here, it is loaded with bacon. Not just the two strips you find at some places, not that crappy precooked packaged stuff. Just a good layer of pork belly. They have a seperate area for pool and darts. Go there and chill.

Have you ever wanted to fix something, but were not sure how to do it? Ever been looking for some part you can’t find anywhere else? Your questions and searches are over. I still go there when I cant find that one thing to see “him”. By him I mean a spirit, a magical man that sits in a powerful chair made of old wood that is held together with braces, screws, nails, and epoxies. And “He” is there to answer your questions.
The employees are very knowable and the store is packed with stuff for being rather small. Take menards and loose all the stupid crap and jam it in a downtown bar and that is the size, and yet it has more things. It truly is a small town hardware store in a medium city. The TV is always on you will find what you need.

Located in UNI place at one block north of 48th and Holdredge

My lifepartners favorite place to eat. This is your normal cafe with home made food. I love the bacon cheese burger and chicken fried steak. My wire could eat the hot roast beef sandwidch every day. The gravy almost pours off the plate.
They are famous for their pie’s all hand made they have around 30 varieties. Good eats.

Ramo’s pizza has been around for a while here in lincoln. Always a place to call when everybody else is closed. They have moved to a new location on 48th and VanDorn that used to be a busters barbeque place. They remodeled and kept the barbque stuff whilke introducing a bar type atmosphere. It has a fireplace and a bunch of TV’s. Try thr brisket it rocks.

A downtown legend. This is a grreat gathering place. Good beer, pinball, popcorn, and friendly bartenders. They are always a last stop for your drinking needs, for they are a last call bar. They have the latest last call and off sale sales.

Need a disguise? Want to make something special with a costume? Need to look like an orca? This is the place to go. Fun is all I can say, they have anything and everything. I used them to become a dalmation complete with big head to propose to my wife, I forced her to dress up like a princess (and for some reason she accepted).

Located underneath the viaduct at 8th and O street

Started out as a smoke/head shop, they have become a mainstay of downtown lincoln in just a few short years. Now a smoke/liquor/beer store they supply you with you necessities. They have a great selection of beverages and smokes/accessories. A walkin humidor greets you through the window, packed full of good cigars.

Zig is the man. I have been going to him for every car I have had. This is a no BS place. You dont get the lifetime crap you pay more for and never use, nor do you get the let me vaccum and clean your windows for $30 extra BS. Just good and quality exhaust work for a good price. I once went in there and he set me up for an appointment the next day. He was ordering the parts and bitch smacked the company. “I know you can give it to me for better than that” he said and continued to haggle untill I got a good price on my work. I have never had a single issue with any of his work. The vehicle will die before the muffler does.
