Meeting in Minneapolis
Milwaukee and Omaha are about 429 miles apart by road. Split the difference and you arrive near Minneapolis, the city closest to the halfway point between them. That splits the trip almost evenly — about 6 hr 15 min from Milwaukee and 6 hr 5 min from Omaha.
That's a half-day drive from each side, so Minneapolis suits an overnight or a weekend rather than a quick coffee — long enough to want a reason to stay, short enough to drive.
If Minneapolis doesn't have what you're after, Chicago and Kansas City are also close to the midpoint and worth a look — each keeps the drive reasonably balanced between Milwaukee and Omaha.
