Welcome to The Station Taphouse and Eatery
McCook, Nebraska’s go-to destination for good times, great food, and the best local craft beer. Born out of passion and a love for this community, The Station is the reimagined version of what was once The Loop Brewing Company—a cherished local hangout. In 2024, Jesse Pierson and his fiancée McKenzie Schmitz took over the reins, bringing with them a fresh vision, a deep commitment to quality, and a nod to the rich history that this space has come to represent.
Our building itself has its own story to tell. The Station resides in a historic structure that was once an old ice house—a vital part of McCook’s past. For decades, this building was the site where local ice was stored and distributed, helping to keep homes and businesses cool before refrigeration became widespread. The space is filled with character, and we’re proud to honor its legacy while giving it a modern twist. When you step inside, you’re not just entering a restaurant—you’re walking into a piece of McCook history.
Meet Jesse
Jesse, a seasoned chef with years of experience, has been a cornerstone of this establishment since its very beginning. As a longtime member of the team, Jesse has poured his heart and soul into curating a menu that blends innovative flavors with the best of Nebraska’s local ingredients.
He’s the mastermind behind our chef-driven creations that have helped shape the community’s love for The Station’s food.
From our signature brick oven pizzas to the locally sourced Nebraska burgers, every dish on the menu is crafted with care and creativity. And if you’ve been lucky enough to try our rotating soups or taste one of our 20+ unique wing flavors, you know exactly why this place has become a staple in McCook.
About McKenzie

Whether you’re in the mood for a classic cocktail or something more inventive, McKenzie’s signature drinks are sure to hit the mark. Her expertise shines through in each carefully crafted libation, making The Station’s bar a place to truly savor your favorite drinks.
And it wouldn’t be The Station without our sixteen Nebraska craft beers on tap. We’ve carefully curated this selection to showcase the best of what our great state has to offer. Whether you’re in the mood for a crisp pale ale, a smooth stout, or something a little more daring, we’ve got something that pairs perfectly with every meal.

As we continue to grow and evolve, we remain dedicated to supporting our community, sourcing locally, and giving back to the town that’s supported us from the very beginning. We’re proud to be part of McCook’s rich history, and we can’t wait to share what’s next with all of you.
