MIDTOWN CROSSING

A TRIP TO OMAHA REQUIRES A VISIT TO THIS VIBRANT NEIGHBORHOOD WITH COZY ACCOMMODATIONS, FRESH FOOD AND ENTERTAINING OPTIONS.

Midtown Crossing’s epicenter is Turner Park, hosting a variety of free events throughout the year. Keep centered with yoga in the park sessions on select Sundays in the spring and kick off the week with movie screenings that will keep the entire family entertained in both spring and summer. Live jazz music fills Midtown and offers a relaxing way to spend a Thursday summer evening. Once the leaves start to turn, it’s fall festival time and dazzling entertainment lights up the holiday season.

Find plenty of food options ranging from trendy vegan food at Modern Love and upscale Mexican dishes at Cantina Laredo to comfy casual at Black Oak Grill and hearty seafood at Krab Kingz. Enjoy acclaimed farm-to-table freshness at The Grey Plume, one of the nation’s greenest restaurants. Thirsty? Indulge in a trendy treat at Thirst-Tea, a tea-drinkers candy store with a variety of flavor-infused teas made customizable with a number of “toppings.”

Proof offers hundreds of whiskies from around the world, along with handcrafted cocktails and an impressive spirits list. Find funky, fun gifts and décor at The Afternoon, a long-time Omaha favorite for jewelry, books, pottery, gadgets and more.

Make your own succulent arrangement and find locally made accessories, décor and furniture at Hutch. Four-legged family members are welcome on a handful of pet-friendly patios, with pet-centric events like the Patio “Pup” Crawl to Halloween Tricks for Treats offering more fun for the furry.
