Cozy Hideout Bars – The Nest Lounge
2638 S. 158th Plaza
It can be seen off West Center Road and looks somewhat nestlike, perched on a hill. There is no direct road or access from the main street, giving The Nest its allure of isolation. This bar has a nicely lit patio that during the summer can get pretty busy. The inside has plenty of seating and a long walk-up bar. The random pictures, scattered neon wall lights and the blue bar seats can remind you of a maritime dive bar on the East Coast. This neighborhood bar serves free food during Husker game days. You also can’t go wrong with the prices, ranging from $2.75 to $10 a drink. The Nest Lounge is open seven days a week starting at 2 p.m.
