If you know me, you know I live for patio season in Omaha. You’ll find me all summer long sipping cocktails at True American, happy hour at Sonny’s, or a cozy dinner at Via Farina. The best part about all of these spots? Outdoor seating, where I can soak up every second of that Nebraska sunshine. There are so many spots across the city with patios, rooftops, beer gardens, and outdoor dining — and I’ve pulled together a guide to help you find your next go-to hangout.
