| In 1974, Spirit World began the journey to become an Omaha tradition. Originally the company was a warehouse-style liquor store started by a respected local businessman named Denny Lewis. During the first fifteen years of operation, the company moved locations, expanded premium offerings, and added a gourmet deli to help better serve area residents.
Over the years, Spirit World became known as Omaha’s best destination for great food and spirits. Spirit World became the only place in town to get the best wines and beers from around the world, and the deli became the hottest lunch spot in Midtown.
In 2008, the founder of Spirit World retired and the local team of Laurie Hellbusch and Anne Hellbusch purchased the company with a vision of maintaining the business legacy while achieving a new life.
Today, Spirit World strives to deliver Omaha premium food and spirits with the best possible service in town. “Spirit World is an Omaha institution, which we intend to honor and maintain. We have so many great customers who have been visiting for years. We also want to bring the store to life for a whole new generation in Omaha. We want everyone to know that they can trust Spirit World to be their friendly destination for great food and drinks,” promises Laurie.
Located in Midtown Omaha at 75th and Pacific, Spirit World has won Omaha Magazine’s Best of Omaha for the last seven years as the Best Wine Store, Best Liquor Store, and Best Deli. Please visit soon to see why Spirit World thrives as an Omaha favorite.
