J.D. Tucker’s

I like this bar alot! It has a great vibe when it is a big sports night. You can catch your local teams there as well as whatever out of town team you are looking for. They don’t serve food, but the bar next door will deliver right to your table, and they have a good bar menu. Waitstaff is nice and knows what they are doing. It is a nice little spot on the edge of the Old Market!

Great bar and great drinks! Ended up there for drinks and a game of darts while on a business trip in Omaha. They’re open late on Sunday and the staff is very friendly.

Very crowded on a Saturday night. Inexpensive drinks and loud music.

I, fortunately, didn’t have any problems with JD Tucker’s. I actually stopped in to wait for a friend. I was wearing a pretty hipsterish outfit, nothing sports related, and actually had a good time. The bartenders seemed chill, there was just basketball on when I went. They had an ok selection on tap, domestics, Stella, and a couple «good» beers. Good number of TVs with all the different games and ESPN on. Bar had a lot of spots which is nice. Crowd seemed pretty chill, no problems, seemed nice. Was pretty dead when I arrived but it got very busy around 11PM. I’d come here again if I was looking for a sports bar in the old market and didn’t want to head to a more traditional bar setting. Sometimes it’s just nice to find a place like this to have a beer and watch TV without a big exciting setting.

I’ll start out by saying my review might be totally biased because even though JD Tucker’s is totally not my kind of place, I still had a lot of fun as an out-​of-​towner.
The place is pretty much a sports bar/​dive. We spent a couple days dropping by to grab drinks while trying to assess where else to go. Annoying college kids were crowded all over the sidewalk and douchebags were shamelessly hitting on us, but the bartenders were super chill and seemed to take everything with a grain of salt.
If you’re looking for a classy place to take a girl, this is not it.
If you’re looking for a great cocktail, this is not it.
If you’re looking for an up and coming hot spot, this is not it.
But if you’re looking for cheap drinks and a jukebox only a couple blocks away from everything else, then this place is just fine.

One of the nicer dive bars in town. When I say nice, I’m not talking about a pretty interior. I’m talking about the cheap drinks.
The customers this night consisted of a bunch of drunken college students. They were a bit rowdy, but not too loud or obnoxious.
There are $ 2.50 drink specials every weeknight. Actually cheaper than DJ’s Dugout. The day I went (Thursday) it was well whiskey highballs. Call whiskies were $ 3.50. Still not bad.
It’d be a good place to chill and chat for sure. I will be back.

Place is perfect to watch a game and their nightly drink specials are the best in the old market. If your looking for a place to go before 10 PM any night, this is perfect. Free peanuts, toss them on the floor too.
Big draw back tho is Friday and Saturday nights late… at the risk of sounding like an old man, it’s loud as hell ! Turn down the music so I can still hear someone yelling in my ear during conversation

I heard this bar was a cool place for locals. I went there after a long day of charity driven sand volleyball. Walked up to the bar and the bald fat bartender told me they don’t serve anyone in a tank top. I was wearing an Urban Outfitter’s tank top (bought down the street), yet the girl in the string tank top was served right away. Apparently rules do not apply to all. Do NOT visit bar.
By the way I live about 5 block from this bar. It disappoints me. :-(

If you are want to go to a laid back sportsbar with a fun atmosphere then JD Tuckers is the wrong place. I went in to watch the Sox playoff game and the bartender told me to turn my hat around.(I had it on backwards) He told me that I would have to leave if I didn’t turn it around. Some sports bar Hugh? Complete jerk. Don’t recommend.

Mmmmm… Charlotte :-)
This is our «go to» place to hang out in the Old Market. Beer and drinks are reasonable and the food is decent bar fare. The staff is great and we always have a good time.
