I can’t speak about other days/events, but certainly the once a month Drag Queen bingo event is a must attend…2 coworkers dragged me along and I ended up having a pretty great time… the drinks, especially my Angry Orchard were very reasonable I thought, the employees there were all super friendly, and especially with so many people attending for the bingo event, pretty much all who were there were in excellent spirits and having a great time… it’s fairly small inside, so get there early if you plan on attending Bingo since it filled up quickly… it’s free to play but you can buy extra cards and there’s even food to purchase with all proceeds going to local charities, which is always a good thing…

I’ve been coming to this place for years and will continue to for years to come. Whether you’re gay, straight, bi, lesbian, transgender, etc. you are always welcome. I truly feel like this is a place where everyone is free to be themselves. I love the relaxed vibe of this bar. You can sit on the big comfy couches and feel like you’re at home or shoot some pool on the other side of the bar. The bartenders are speedy and friendly. I never have to wait for a drink and they definitely do not skimp on the alcohol. Definitely give the slushies a try!

I was in town on business from Denver and was concerned I would be able to find any fun for a Friday night but I’m in love and will be back every time I go to Omaha.

We landed here on a fluke after we deemed ourselves a bit«too old» when we ventured to another nearby establishment and left still thirsty but quite cognizant that we were a) out in our yoga pants since it’s a last minute«let’s go out» situation and b) we do not giggle two octaves higher than our normal voice range. What can I say? We had a great time! Ran into some friends we know. Met some of their friends. Made some new friends. Had some(strong) cocktails. On a late Friday night, we were in our happy place and not feeling(too much) outta place. Is it weird that a straight, married lady with a mortgage payment wants to make this her neighborhood bar?!

Like, Totally Tubular Fun! I had me a blast at Flixx — Saturday night, hittin’ the town Omaha style, this is the place to party and party we did! We arrived fairly early and the place was mostly empty. No problem, this just meant we got a good seat at the bar :-) Both bartenders were nice, funny and cute — which always helps. Crackin’ jokes, makin’ drinks, keepin’ the customers happy… great service! I(think I) had 5 – 6 strong vodka drinks and two Tuaca shots over the span of an hour or so. The time came to pay the tab and move on… when what do my wondering eyes do see? The bill was $ 23 — oh me, this cannot be!!! Talk about a joy-gasm. By this time time the place was packed and I didn’t want to leave. However, next time I’m in Omaha this will for sure be one place I will make a stop! The ambiance, clientele, staff, drink prices, bathrooms, lounge area — they all make this place top notch!

Between The Max and Flixx, I’m pretty surprised at how clean and pleasant Omaha’s gay bars seem to be. We caught a drag show here that seemed to have about two dozen performers or something. It’s not often you find that kind of variety. They may not all be as polished as you might find in larger cities but I can’t say we didn’t have a good time. I’d come back here if I were in Omaha again.

Fun, little bar just a hop, skip and jump from Old Market area. I went on a drag performance night. And it was a delight. A delight. Particularly BUBBLES. She was a hot mess. Nice, stiff drinks. And with some cute boys around, a nice stiff«you-know-what» too!

Interesting place. As a straight guy that will occasionally let a gay friend or two take me here — and also being from the New Orleans area — this place hasn’t phased me in a negative way such as a few other venues(like Connections). I’ve been here 4 or 5 times now. Every time I’ve walked in, I’ve been taken off guard at how much the place smells like baby powder. It’s not bad — just not what you’d expect from a bar. The first time I went, I was overcharged for my beers, and also had my ass grabbed by 3 different people — all of whom must have been some sort of grope ninjas because each time I turned around, people had their backs to me. That wasn’t cool. I gave it another shot and had a better time, and actually checked out the place. There’s your typical 80’s/90’s music with [I think] hilarious videos always playing. It’s not too dark, not too bright. The place looks very sleek and clean, which isn’t typical for a small Omaha bar. The bartenders have been super friendly and nice, and usually pretty quick. Either drink prices have dropped dramatically, or the guy I saw the first time(and haven’t seen since) no longer works there. The bartender I’ve seen the past few times also gives decent pours. The crowd seems decent, usually. It’s not hard to go in, strike up a conversation, and even find a half-decent pool player. For what it’s worth to any gay people reading before going in — most of the younger guys in there seem to be on dates. The older guys aren’t shy about hitting on someone half their age. That hasn’t bothered me, but be prepared for it to happen a few times(in case you’re a wallflower). Certainly not my preferred scene(I can’t dance and I prefer blues and rock music — well, and women) — but I’ve had a pretty darn good time each time I’ve went.

THISPLACEISAWESOME! The owners are very active in there establishment thats hwy this palce is doing so well and is ALWAYSPACKED! Get their frozen drinks and get them mixed only 4 to 5 bucks! AMAZING! The venue is cute kinda small but seems small due to it being always packed. The drag shows are amazing and are next door, always a good time next door. Go and see Bubbles the Drag Queen she will work it out! and put a good show for you. Support this establishment it is a neighbor hood bar and great gay spot in Omaha !! it is what it is, this place made me feel at home everytime I came there.

Let me just start by saying that Flixx just isn’t what it used to be. There used to be a great bar called Chixx adjacent to Flixx. Unfortunately, that is now closed and that section is now Flixx show bar for special occasions. I don’t go here nearly as often as I once did. The atmosphere has changed somewhat. Instead of new and interesting music on the TVs/sound system, I often encounter old and worn out 80s and 90s music. Most of the time Saturdays are the days with the best music. I unfortunately stumbled upon what was supposed to have been a «wet boxer» contest last night. Keep in mind I’m not a gay guy, but this was pathetic. There were no participants, so the bar was going to use their waiters in the contest. The picture they had to advertise the show was repulsive… so much so that my gay(guy) friend found it disgusting. The crowd is becoming much older than before as well. One of the good things about Flixx is that the waiters are usually very fast and efficient. You can at least have a drink quickly while suffering through a bad music video! They also have decent specials.

Flixx is a fun spot, but not quite my typical scene(for reasons other than the loud dance music and videos adorning the walls). And I’m kind of surprised that the only other person to review was our friend the Dr… Anyway a group of us went after a friend’s birthday and were lucky enough to stumble upon the Miss Flixx pageant. Without getting into too much detail, I think it suffice to say that I’ve never before experienced the ‘magazine model self esteem’ feeling while looking at a guy before last Friday night. One of the highlights(of which others included people adorned in string lights, a lesson on waving, high kicks, dollar bills, and plenty of tiaras) was when we were heading into the pageant and were told, «sure, just cut through here when she’s done» then ended up on stage briefly. Whoops… but all in all not only was it an experience, but a good time, and to paraphrase Bill, I’ll never hear Owl City’s Fireflies the same way again.
