"Ordered the bulgogi beef smash burger AND IT WAS AMAZING! Also ordered the classic smash and it met our craving for a serious cheeseburger. The fries are always perfect. Service was quick, kind and thoughtful. Apologies for the bad pictures we were too excited to eat to take better pictures!"

"Went there to enjoy the BSU game. Enjoyed a couple of beers. The kids really enjoyed their kids smash burgers with fries, wife enjoyed her Bahn Mi! I really enjoyed my double smash. The smash had great taste. Atmosphere was fun without feeling overly loud or crushed. I highly recommend for families or moderate - large groups!"

"Boise Brewing was fantastic. I ordered a flight of beers to try out several of the local favorites. They serve a great variety from IPA, Porter, Blonde, Ales, Lights, Ciders, and Wines. I also tried the Carne Asada Tacos. They were excellent but be prepared for a little kick with the Jalapeño Cream Sauce. The atmosphere was fun and also very family friendly as well. Our kids enjoyed several items from their kid's menu as well. Service was spot on with a smile, and provided us insight on the local favorites from the menu. Can’t wait to visit again the next time I visit Boise."

"Wow, this food is so good!! The fried pickles are the best I've had, the salad was amazing with baby greens, carrots, cucumber, tomatoes and croutons & the ranch & blue cheese dressings are really good-definitely house made. Next to them is the onion aioli. Our smash burgers were so good we immediately tucked into them and I only remembered to take a picture once we were almost done!! Cute place, great vibe and lots of beer!"

"One of the better brew pubs in town. If you’re staying downtown and need quality beer and food, this is your place. The beer is great with awards, rightly, displayed for all to see. All the beers I tried were quality. And there a lot of choices. From light offerings, to Pales and IPAs, to Stouts and Porters. They have something for everyone’s taste buds. The food is great as well. Especially for a brew pub. Burgers and pub grub, but also salads, too. Very nice selection. Highly recommend!"

"Nice place for a bite to eat and a beer. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Seat yourself. A couple dozen tables with some seating outside. Food was great (chicken fingers were fantastic). Good selection of beers on tap. Would return and certainly recommend. Only downside is parking, which can be a challenge to find nearby."

"Beer was great, food was great and the service was great. Driving through on the way to McCall and glad we could stop by. Home made black bean burger was delicious along with the Hazy IPA."
