About this business

Prohibition ended in Nebraska on August 9th, 1933, and Ole's opened at 12:01 the next day. Since then, we've been known as the bar in Paxton with great food and unusual decor. Over the years, our founder, the great outdoorsman Ole Herstedt, embarked on adventures in big game hunting that took him to every continent. For 35 years, he brought his trophy mounts home and hung them above the bar tables and booths: a moose from Canada, a python from Honduras, and even an iconic polar bear! Along with our hearty steaks and burgers ... read more

Great food! Huge portions! Great Service too! Everyone was really friendly even when my kids were roaming around looking at all the animals! 

Business response:

Thank you for your review! We at Ole's love roaming around looking at the animals as well! :-) We hope to see you and your family again soon.

Updated: please read comments. Decent food (only had nachos). HORRIBLE SERVICE. It took 40 minutes just to get Nachos and the place is not busy so that's not an excuse. It also took over 10 minutes for someone to seat us because they didn't notice us. Server never came back to see if we needed anything (and we did need several things, salsa, sour cream, napkins, water refills), she never picked up our 2 empty beer bottles. I have run/worked in the food service business for many years and this is not acceptable customer servi... read more

Business response:

Katie: I apologize for the service you received Saturday evening. We actually had 4 tables wait over 40 minutes for their food! This certainly is not normal or the level of customer service I build the business on over the past 25 years! Saturday evening we served over 243 meals between 6:30 and 8:30 and we simply got overwhelmed a couple times. I should have bought your meal and drinks like i did for the other 3 tables. Sorry again. Hopefully you will stop back, let me know when you do and next meal is on me. Tim Holzfaster... read more

I, myself, have never been here- I am writing this review for my husband and his brother who just left and said it was Phenominal!! They ask that I rave about the Buff Burger - Chicken Fried Steak and the delicious mashed ..... I'm a diner owner in Ohio so we are foodies and they are super satisfied !!! Great job!!!
