Absolutely terrible. I know this is an airport restaurant but wow no efforts made here. We were traveling for Boise State family weekend, like so many others, and wanted some breakfast. By the way BSU family weekend is like a Super Bowl here in terms of visitors. The menu offers very little but they had an egg and potatoes plate which sounded good. Guess what they were out of potatoes. Out of potatoes at 10 am in Idaho! On parents weekend! Not prepared at all for the weekend rush. They offered croissant sandwiches in there quick to go counter so we thought we could get just the croissant , but the guy working there said he couldn't give us a croissant unless it was only made as a sandwich! We got the wrap and it tasted like it was made with powder eggs. The side was tots. You might think that counts as potatoes but he was more like overcooked crunch salt balls. Seems like they were from yesterdays leftovers. Also got the avocado toast. Terrible. Plain toast with more like guacamole, not fresh cut avocado, with sliced tomatoes. That's it. They should serve this with tortilla chips and call it guacamole dip. Beyond the food being barely edible. We sat next to the bar and could hear the waitress complaining to the bartender that "everyone is being cheap" and only ordering juice and coffee. Not mimosas, beer or wine. But when I saw a guy at the bar fry and order a cocktail they said they can't serve hard alcohol until later. If you are concerned with your tips try having good customer service and a menu that is available to customers. How can you complain when items aren't available to the paying customer and they only ordered what little was available. Hard pass next time. I'll wait for Smashburger to open or grab a bagel. read more

Kayla was super sonic awesome!! She knew right away that the 3 B Burger was the cure to my Friday ills!! The tender meat and delicious flavor mixed with the cheese and bacon makes this the optimal choice for a barbecue bacon burger !! I had a side, Caesar salad, because I'm a middle-aged man... I'm kidding it's just my excuse to order something other than French fries This place offers a perfect and delicious experience combined with amazing and friendly service!! I come here every time I come to Boise read more

For an airport bar in Boise, pretty strong. We just had drinks and sat at the bar. I loved that the bartender was friendly and aware that people are on different schedules. Some are sitting for hours, others are grabbing a quick drink. He did a great job of adjusting accordingly. read more

Best fries fries I've had in my entire life. The bar was full and there was a line. Got my fries and drink to go before my flight. Boise your are hands down the best I've ever had. I will be back for friends, and family but most importantly the fries and hospitatlity. Kaite my bartenter was very nice. My drink was well balanced and the fry sauce hit the spot. read more

When I fly, I typically don't partake in libations but my son was celebrating his 21st birthday so why not. The star at Cross Grain Brewhouse is Alicia. She's very friendly and was able to glide through the busy dining room with ease. Her recommendation of the Mother Earth Boo Koo IPA was an excellent choice. With the TVs playing sports and the constant chatter with passengers it can be loud for regular conversations so keep that in mind. read more

I guess I'm spoiled. I live in Portland, Oregon, and there is a rule established by the city that prohibits businesses from charging more for the same product at the airport than they do in the city. When I get a beer at PDX, I pay the same prices I would in town. Having that mindset, I was flabbergasted when I got my bill for 1 pint at this place. $12.72?! Sweet baby Jesus... it's one beer! Place was super loud due to them playing all my "favorite" 90's hits... Hootie anyone? No? Anyone? Crazy busy because it's the airport, but the server was very nice and kept on top of the insanity that is the airport, which is why they get 2 instead of 1. Hey owners... maybe you could put prices on your menu? That would be a nice addition. read more

Nice little fresh stop before hopping on my flight. Total spot for sports fans. My Vegas Golden knights were playing so I got to watch them all the way in Idaho....awesome! Bomb fries and tons of healthy options. Busy place with fast moving servers. I'll be back in this cool bar for a drink the next time I'm flying to Boise. read more

Place was Ok. Got the chicken tenders with spicy sauce. The amount was a lot l. I got 5 tenders and gave some to friends.

Food was ok. Burger and tots were warmish. Burger had a think patty. Service was nice.

Nice little airport pub. Not a huge selection of menu items, but quite adequate. Kayla did a good job as our server. We split the regular burger & fries it was more than enough. Good burger and very hot crispy fries. Beers were $12, but it beats out the $18 ones at O'Hare. No charge for splitting the meal, a nice plus. read more

Catching a late night flight with my husband and stopped in for a beer about 15 min before close. The server was *negative amounts* of enthusiastic about us coming in and was VERY clear they were CLOSING. She sloshed our drinks over to us (as well as the people near us; the top ounce of their drinks landed on the floor and splashed my ankles) and reminded us multiple time, sans any friendliness, that they were CLOSING. The thing is, we get it. You're closing. We didn't walk in 5 min to close and order steak dinners. We ordered beers. A smile and a little hospitality goes SUCH a long way in this business. We would have left a much larger tip, but the service was just so poor, we couldn't. Do better. read more

Great pit stop for a bit before your flight. Katie has served me a few times and kills it always. Super fast, attentive, and kind.

When it comes to airport food, expectations are low, but I have to say this place is pretty good- good enough that I ended up here twice during a weekend trip to Idaho. Highlights: -Solid menu options (especially in comparison to the one other sit down restaurant in this airport). They've got a variety of sandwich options including vegetarian options. -Nice staff. Both nights I was there, I experienced great service. Super friendly and quick. -Good price. I ordered a veggie burger with tots and a side salad and a glass of wine and it came out to about $25. -Food was tasty! I really enjoyed my club sandwich. It was massive and I only ended up needing to eat half of it to feel totally stuffed. read more

Very melt in your mouth burger. Just the right amount of everything. Fries were barely warm tho. Good selection of brews looks like they have some yummy drinks. If I'm ever back I'll be trying the huckleberry margarita;) friendly staff. Kindly Split the check, I shared a burger with Peter whom I met on the previous flight. read more

We had time to kill before flying out and were hungry. It is the airport, so I was surprised the food wasn't SO expensive but the cost of the drinks made up for it. Jeez. The Sparkling Lemonade was $14, and a draft beer was $12. The lemonade was so-so. We had the BODO nachos. The cheese is the cheapo like the canned that you get at events. We also had the Club House sandwich that was also so-so. The service was not good. We asked for a fork twice before getting up to get it ourselves. Not again. Choose someplace else to spend your money. read more

The agave glazed chicken strips were some of the best chicken strips I've ever had in my whole life. Totally recommend if you have some extra time in the Boise airport. 5 stars read more

We came here while waiting for our flights. Patricia did a great job serving us considering how crowded it was. It seemed like she was the only waitress Sun around 3pm. We order a few beers, and some wine, which was all delicious. read more

Not too shabby for an airport pub. They were extremely busy but that didn't effect the service one bit. My server was quick, attentive and pleasant to interact with (which, as someone who spends far too much time in airports, I can confidently say is hard to find when dining in airport establishments). I can't comment too much on food because I just had a Caesar Salad with quinoa but I will say it was actually a decent portion for the price. Drinks were pretty strong so that was a plus. The only reason it's not 5 stars is because there's nothing really special about it, not a place I'd recommend to a friend if it were outside of the airport. read more

I do love the Boise airport and Cross Grain has a lot of great things going for it. I sat at the bar and my bartender was friendly, prompt, and so darn smiley. I wish I'd gotten his name, because he was a wonderful addition to their team. I ordered two local brews (they have tons of local options! So fun). I tried a hef from Payette and a stout from Boise Brewing. Both were delicious and cold and helped settle my nerves before my flight. I was feeling like something salty and fried would also take the edge off, so I ordered the nachos. They're made with thick potato chips, drizzled in all sorts of stuff and served with a stack of jalapenos. I liked the chips a lot and the pico de gallo. However, I was pretty bummed that the "cheese" was from a can and only mildly warm. While I've been know to enjoy a good stadium nacho on very desperate occasions, the reason why they serve the "cheese" in a separate cup is because that stuff will soggify even the sturdiest chip. They definitely made my nachos soggy and I only finished about half. But then, I was really there to chew some brews. I do love sitting at the bar in airport restaurants because I occasionally get to have some great conversation. The lady that I sat next to was a delight and added a remarkable element to an otherwise mediocre food experience. read more

Most airport food service is fairly generic in my experience. Beverly was our server and not only made a great drink recommendation but shared family stories and made us feel special. Stop here. read more

Walter made the time before boarding awesome!! Great energy and conversation! BEST BARTENDER IN RVA!!

I enjoy a beer with truffle fries as I wait for my airplane to fly to known destinations. They have great salads as well. Definitely will continue visiting this restaurant as their service is good, the beer & fries are good, and it's a great place to wait for my flight. read more

We usually stop here on our way out of Boise. Although we rarely want a full meal here, the appetizers are nice (we like the truffle fries) and a beer takes the edge off of the travel stress. I was surprised at the price of a beer recently, as I usually get a beer flight which, by the ounce, is cheaper than a regular beer. Not a big deal, but the response was, "well, that's what it costs in other airports...", which, ok, hey, fine... read more

Waited 40 minutes at table without being served. I understand the server was handling way more tables than she should have been assigned, but it was the bartender who ruined the experience. After waiting to get the servers attention, the bartender stated that I needed to move, without him asking or caring to understand the situation. In a calm tone, I mentioned I had been waiting 40 minutes without any staff stopping by my table, but he cut me off and said I needed to leave. Completely unprofessional and does not deserve anyone's business. I recommend you try Bardenay Restaurant on the same floor near C gates. read more

Katie has been fantastic! Efficient and cheerful and helpful. This is a great place to take time on a Friday! She is great, if she takes care of you you're in good hands. read more

It was 10.30pm strolled up to bar for a drink before a red-eye. Bartender said we are closed. Went to leave and he called last call. I turned back around said i just want a quick shot I know you want to get out of hear. 10 people where still there. Then he said I just told you no. F*ck off. I said wait a minute there is no need to talk like that and he said JUST F*CK OFF. I come to this restaurant at least once a month for breakfast when I fly in the morning. I WONT BE BACK. read more

Seems like you shouldn't go if you aren't Caucasian. Server asked us to sit down anywhere we would like and proceeded to wait over 20 minutes. It wasn't until the waiter seated another guest and asked for their order that we decided to leave. We sat right in the middle of the room as well and made multiple eye contacts with the waiter. read more

Awesome airport place! Not too quiet but not noisy. Eating Whole 30 this month so made some modifications to my order....and removed the cheese, dressing on the side and croutons. The beef was very tasty and grilled perfectly. The lettuce onions and tomato tastes fresh too. Wish I could have tries a brew or two...maybe next trip through. read more

Two words. Potato Chip Nachos. Ok that is three words, but you too will be so deliriously happy, you will forget math too. Who knew home made kettle chips could be used in place of tortilla chips?! I don't think I can ever look at a regular nacho the same way again. Food was fast which is what you need at the airport. Beer finally came so I could imbibe a bit before my flight. Can't wait to be back in Boise for some more airport nachos! read more

Best club sandwich, fry sauce and fries I've eaten in a long time. My partner also had a burger that he raved about, and he is quite judgmental over food he's served in restaurants. Definitely recommend! Wish I could come here without being in the airport terminal! read more

Why are we in an airport that requires masks yet their staff have their masks below their chin The bartender and a guy behind the bar are not wearing masks And a girl just walked out of the kitchen without a mask, she was moving a small cart with product on it. She did pull her mask up after she walked into the terminal area Not impressed!!! read more

Awesome beer, good food, fast service! Really what more do you want? I always get a tall cold one and the pretzels. When your wife drags you to the Boise airport early- get a beer and a burger. Just chill out. Get happy with hops. read more

Once again airport food and its worst!' I ordered the quinoa kale salad w chicken. It says baby kale. And it's not even the kale your supposed to serve. Huge old leaves. . It's says baby kale on the menu and it was old mealy and yellow. They were supposed to call my name and t they didn't. It sat there for so long and I was late for my plane when I could have had it on time. I ended up throwing it away. Another restaurant Robbing people.

I fly in and out of Boise often. No matter the season Cross Grain is always on my go-to list. The food is good but one bartender stands out as simply amazing.
