How Nebraska's Oldest Bar Outsmarted Prohibition Without Closing Its Doors
When Prohibition swept across the country, most saloons shut their doors for good. One little bar in Columbus, Nebraska, simply switched to soft drinks and kept right on going. Glur’s Tavern in Columbus pulled off that trick, and it’s been pouring since around 1876. It’s the oldest bar in Nebraska, widely billed as the oldest […]

Inside Cafe Postale in the Rail and Commerce Building
I’ve always been drawn to historic buildings that have been saved and repurposed. That’s what led me to Cafe Postale inside the historic Rail and Commerce Building.

The Spaghetti At This Family-Owned Nebraska Italian Restaurant Comes With Housemade Pasta And Gigantic Meatballs
The mozzarella sticks at this Italian spot are made from the kitchen’s own homemade pasta. That one detail tells you how seriously this place treats its noodles. The spaghetti arrives with housemade pasta and meatballs big enough to need their own parking spot. One meatball version even tucks bacon inside the beef, which sounds like a dare and a gift at the same time.

A family’s homemade hummus and falafel sit just a few steps from bulk bins where you can fill your own glass jars with lentils. That combo alone got my attention. Add a small kitchen turning out shawarma, and I was sold. The shelves lean Middle Eastern, with kosher products,...

You Haven't Tried Nebraska's Best Wings Until You've Had Them Char-Buffed
Fried, sauced, then thrown on the grill.
