Brothers Bar & Grill

It really wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be! Ok yeah, I'm pretty sure this is where all the guys that drive Ford Mustangs and wear Tapout hang out but even so....

Came here on a Saturday immediately after a game, holy hell was it horrible trying to drive anywhere downtown. We eventually parked a couple blocks away and walked. It was pretty crowded, they were carding and wrist banding everyone that came in. There wasn't anywhere to sit for about 20 minutes until a couple people left the bar.

Their selection of beer was OK, they had some local stuff, but the bartender didn't know what they had so I had to look for myself. The second beer I ordered, the bartender poured me the wrong one, but I guess I'll chalk it up to being one of the 2 IPAs right next to each other and it being loud and busy.

They had 2 actual size bowling lanes that was kind of cool....They played YMCA and I was one of like 2 people actually dancing to it....BUT my bacon cheeseburger was actually pretty decent. Especially after beer. Bacon was cooked pretty good, surprisingly and the burger had flavor. Cheese wasn't even melted a little, but whatever.

I'd probably come here again if I wanted the environment.

I have always enjoyed coming to Brother's, but I was extremely disappointed this last visit. It was busy, but I waited over 30 minutes to be served (still was never served but my friend ordered for me instead), all while new people came up and were served within 5-15 minutes. I was being deliberately ignored despite being completely sober, friendly, respectful, and patient. I payed $5 for entry to be completely ignored and never served. The manager's excuse was that the bartender was "new and from a small town".... while he seemed perfectly competent to serve everyone but me. I normally don't complain but while my friends were repeatedly severed by the same bartender, I was ignored and we weren't offered any compensation or a free drink or anything even though the manager admitted the bartender was in the wrong.
To be clear, most of the other bartenders are great and I never had a bad experience before this and this one specific bartender.

I've been coming to brothers for a while and I mostly enjoy my time here. Drinks are super cheap, but sometimes it's too busy to even get served, especially on Thursdays towards the end of a semester. My drink order gets messed up sometimes, but that's not a huge problem for me. There's always a place to sit and the tables are pretty big. There's a lot to do so it's never boring being here

I really wanted to play shuffle board but It costs 2 dollars to play! Bowling ally is doesn't have enough oil either.

This is a decent place to come have a drink. The kitchen Isn't open right now but for it being a Thursday it was pretty pippin. They have a lot of options for drinks pretty cheap and who else lets you drink for free on your birthday? No where I know of. The music is awesome so are the bartenders. If you're in the area and looking for a fun atmosphere even during Covid, come on down!

I've been going to Brothers every Husker Game weekend since 2019 and it never fails to amaze me. Great environment, great drinks, great DJs, great people, if you want to have a great night in Lincoln I'd highly recommend Brothers bar and grill! Great place!

Friendly service, fun atmosphere. My wife and I travel across the country every year and whenever our travels take us through Lincoln, a stop at Brothers is on the list. Their drink specials are always awesome, my wife enjoys the music, and the bartenders do an excellent job. We always sit at the bar to people watch and hang out, and they are attentive to us. Keep up the good work, we look forward to our next trip through Lincoln.

We visited Lincoln recently and spent some time at Brothers before the Nebraska/Ohio State football game. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming of everyone, including the Ohio State fans. The burgers were some of the best we've had. The sides (French fries and cheese curds) were very generous portions and also delicious.
The atmosphere was comfortable and enjoyable. After the game, the bar was packed and everyone seemed to be having a great time.
We highly recommend Brothers Bar and Grill and will visit again the next time we're in Lincoln!

I didn't have food here, just drinks. The drinks were cheap, and it wasn't a terrible selection of beer, though they had tapped the kegs of beer I wanted by the time I got there (10pm on a Friday - wtf?) so I was left with little choice.

The prices are reasonable, but I suppose that's compared to the Northeast. It was crowded there, and they could use some more hightop tables, but overall it's a decent place to hang out and chat (or yell over music) with your friends.

It's also pretty easy to get to, and it's downtown, so why not? We'll probably be going back the next time we're in the city.

We went here on a Wednesday afternoon before a show at the Bourbon. I had a little while to kill before the show so a cheap pitcher of Busch light...5.50 on Wednesdays fit the bill. It was almost empty, and we just relaxed for a bit. I plan on doing that again next time I am going to a show.
