Jordan's Guidebook to Lincoln
Nightlife
But, like, don’t go to bars right now please. There’s a pandemic.
DRINKS - BAR: great place with an outdoor courtyard for seating. They’re doing an amazing job at social distancing and sanitizing. The owner is a pillar of the community and you should def support them. Example: when the pandemic first hit, he put all of his bartenders on salary since they couldn’t work. Dog friendly.
