 Delectable bakery delights |
1206 Howard Street Omaha, NE 68102 United States +1 402 342 2276 |
When you walk in the door, you can instantly see the wide variety of luscious pastries, cakes, cookies and other treats on display. The airy bakery also offers a full menu of coffee drinks, exotic teas and natural juices. Sandwiches, quiches, salads and more are also available.

Retro dining |
409 South 12th Street Omaha, NE 68102 United States +1 402 341 9870 |
This retro breakfast and lunch spot in the Old Market is as much fun as it looks. The atmosphere is classic and the menu offers few surprises, but everything, from eggs and bacon to the chicken-fried steak, is terrific. The mood is subdued and casual. Choose a stool at the bar or a cozy booth and enjoy. A small parking lot is available, but, as is common for all Old Market restaurants, parking can be a problem. Review © 2007, Wcities |

One of the most popular upscale restaurants in town, this bistro has it all...outstanding food, intimate atmosphere and one of the best Sunday brunches around. Large windows run across the front of the sparsely decorated restaurant. One wall is covered by a black and white mural of photographs depicting the French dining experience. Dinner specialties include the restaurant's famous Filet Mignon with green peppercorn sauce and Chateaubriand for two . Be sure to save room for one of the cafe's unforgettable French pastries.
