Best and Most Eco-friendly Places to Eat in Omaha

You’re in Omaha. You wanna eat. But you want kick-ass food at a spot that’s not trashing the environment. We have good news for you.

Omaha has a ton of eco-friendly places to eat!

Omaha may have a west vs east divide, but one thing that unites us all is our love of amazing places to eat.

But you’re also a conscious consumer. When eating out, you want to support the environment with your money. So we compiled a list of the most delicious and eco-friendly restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, and caterers in Omaha. Many of them are …

  • Investing in local soil health by composting

  • Cutting down carbon emissions by sourcing locally

  • Practicing zero waste methods and/or ditching single-use plastics

Our skin in the game: We have the Greater Omaha Area’s only industrial composting facility, Soil Dynamics. We also have a compost & recycling hauling service. So if a restaurant is serious about sustainability, they most likely partner with us to recycle and compost their waste.

The list criteria: At a minimum, every listed food establishment composts with us. We also note if they are recycling, using compostable take-out packaging, or going above and beyond with additional zero-waste practices. So please enjoy and support these wonderful eco-friendly Omaha businesses.
