Barrymore's

I think it's the best happy hour in Lincoln, a very cool vibe and last night we had Cassidy who really took care of us. Moscow mule five dollars a great old-fashioned six dollars. I'm in. Thank you Cassidy for a great night will be back.

A hidden gem in Lincoln, the drinks are crafted so well and the ambiance is so romantic! This place is great because of the high ceilings and friendly service they have a wide range of creative cocktails. I got an espresso martini and it was strong. Definitely check this place out next time!

Found it randomly walking around late at night. Cool venue, relaxed vibe with good drinks and a friendly bartender

This is a hidden gem in Lincoln. Located in the back of an old theater, This would be perfect for catching up with an old friend, or a chill 3rd date. It's a little too quiet for a first date and everyone would totally be able to tell you are awkward and don't know each other. They have a wide range of liquor and wine, as well as fun signature cocktails priced 7-10 dollars.

A fine bar for cocktails and sports watching. Barrymore's is in the back of a theater, so the ceiling is high and the bar has visible theater equipment and posters from different productions. It was empty on a Saturday night, so perhaps the bar may not last for much longer, but I thought the cocktails were reasonably priced and the ambiance was comfortable. The music was a mix of pop music and classic rock when I would have expected orchestral compositions complementing into the theater scenery of the bar, but I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't much demand for that type of music. Overall, Barrymore's is a fine place to grab a drink.

This place has gone down hill. Once a cool hip vibe is now nothing but a downer. Horrible staff. Very rude. They act like your a burden on them. No wait staff, just a bartender and your lucky if they get around to your table. Stay away. There are better places downtown.

Barrymore's has lost something over the years. This was a cool cocktail bar years ago, and used to have a great ambience behind the theater coupled with classic cocktails. Today, there are better options in downtown Lincoln for cocktails. When we were at Barrymore's with a party of six, the staff consisted of two very overworked bartenders, no servers. The cocktail menu on the table was "well loved" to say the least. I had to order our drinks from the bar and take them to our table. And the drink quality was average, if I am being kind. Not what it once was.

Almost every year I was in Lincoln, Nebraska I stopped here at Barrymore's. It has a rich history as it is a theater as well as a bar/lounge that exists within the Rococo Theatre. When you walk in you can see some of the lighting and sound switches as well as when you look up in the bar you can see the lighting rigs. It's a very cool experience. They are known for their classic cocktails. The first time I ever went there, I had the greatest experience because one of the managers took us to the actual theater and showed us around. She was cool and let us take pictures and everything. It was definitely not where we thought we would end up we were grateful for the tour. The second time I went we stayed for a few drinks and the same lady took us on the same tour. The most recent time we went, that did not happen - sadly but we did enjoy a few classic cocktails. One of my coworkers ordered a an old-fashioned and it was served with soda water. We weren't sure if that was a classic way of serving it, or if it was a mistake. She didn't really want it that way but we got through it. Overall, I've never had a bad time here and if I go to Lincoln Nebraska again, I will be there!

I was excited to bring my friend here for her 21st birthday for a nice drink, however we were misled by the fact that it is NOT wheelchair accessible even though it is clearly listed on their website that they are. This is not ADA compliant and very frustrating to me that my friend cannot equally enjoy this space. I hope that this can be fixed in the future so that my friend and many others are able to enjoy the space.

I love this place! Proposed to my wife 30 years ago, waitress was super nice and attentive. Hasn't changed.Every time we go back I'm treated like a king. I get the feeling that if I was a king I'd be treated like a nutty cuckoo super king. It's a cool backstage place that you need to experience. Only suggestion is I'd get some college students in there to provide jazz, flamenco or whatever kind of music.
