Right when I walked in the bartender greeted me, so friendly, so lively. If I wasnt just there to grab lunch I would have stayed longer just to converse. Then I got home to eat.. Wow!!!. Their sandwiches are on point. One of the best I have eaten since moving to Boise. Will be going back.

Cool local bar. Cute patio, but faces west so can get hot in the afternoon. They have Prosecco if you don’t drink beer. We did not eat so can’t comment on the food.

Food took a little while but this place has the best Mac and cheese I have ever tasted! And if a menu has mac and cheese, I order it so I've had a lot! My son also loved the frito pie bag.

We were staying across the street and decided to check this place out - checked out their menu online and saw Mac n Cheese and I LOVE a good mac & cheese so went in hoping that they didn't have egg in their macaroni. Good news, THEY DIDN'T! Pub-type atmosphere, lots of beer on tap. I can't remember which I ordered, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I ordered the Mac n Cheese without the breadcrumbs and the hubs ordered it and added bacon. It was creamy and yummy. I ended out taking some of my back to the room. It reheated well, so made for an excellent midnight(ish) snack! The place wasn't too busy when we were there, the bartender was also our waiter. He was polite and helpful. The table/chairs were clean and people looked like locals (which is always comforting when you randomly pick a spot). There's indoor and outdoor seating. I didn't see a lot of parking. I hear it's a busy place on Friday and Saturday evenings. We were pleased with our restaurant choice that afternoon. Thank you for reading my review!
