So far I have been there twice, once they had a live band that was handing out sex toys to the crowd, and the other night they had a DJ. Nothing crazy with the drinks, but the crowds were a pretty good size on both nights. This place is 2 stories, with the bathrooms upstairs and pool tables on both floors. Arcade games as well. Lots of seating. I would recommend checking this place out for something different than most of the other places.

"20$ online, 25$ door" okay cool, ill bring 25$ bucks we get there all excited to finally get in, buut noo.... there's actually a fee! oh, okay cool, i dont have the cash for that on me, was not trying to bring unnecessary money that'll fall out of my pocket so... i tell em, okay..well yall didnt say that on any...of the flyers, i will literally show you hahah cuzzz that is kind of crazy i am being so for real when the lady at the front just goes "ohhh wellll umm.." and trails off, couldn't even explain likee.. why.. there is a fee and why it wasn't listed oh, also they kind of DONT do split payments, sooo you actually can't pay the rest on your card, sorry! if it werent for the really cool guy behind us in line who covered me and my friends tickets, we wouldve been cooked. so thank you very much random guy. the dumb surprise fee event has happened to me everytime ive been here, so yeah. dont come here unless you reallllyyyy have to...lol

The Location: It is located in Downtown Boise, near the intersection of W Idaho St and S 11th St…read more Parking looks relatively easy to find. The People: Staff and bartenders are good. The Drinks: - Rum and Coke: A solid strong drink. - Water: It is free, self-serve, stay hydrated. The Venue: - I came on a Wednesday to see a live music show. New upcoming Alternative band, Gypsy Temple, was playing. The show was absolutely amazing! Way better than I expected. The band was amazing, and I think the venue set up the event pretty well. - There are two areas, the main area with the bar and a bunch of seating, and a smaller more private area with a pool table for only $1 a game (ask for quarters if you don't have them). Upshot: Neurolux is a solid spot to hang out on a Wednesday. I would most definitely have to check it out on other days too.

Started a tab where they don't keep your credit card and they have a sign that states that they charge 20% to it if you don't close out. I was ok with the 20% charge since I would probably leave that amount for a tip anyway and almost didn't close out and just leave. I did decide to go to the bar and close out and found out that there were bogus charges on my tab for a drink that we didn't have and for ear plugs we didn't have as well. When I pointed this out to the bartender, she knew exactly which items were not mine and removed them without me pointing them out. This tells me that she knew which charges were bogus and I consider this fraud and theft. No matter how nice it is, I can't go to a place that I can't trust.

From the very first time I walked into District Coffee in downtown Boise, I could tell this place…read morewas special. The staff are incredibly friendly, professional, and genuinely kind. What really stood out to me is that they greet you like they are truly happy to see you. Even on my first visit they made me feel welcome, and now every time I walk in they greet me like a familiar face and make me feel right at home. That kind of consistency and warmth is rare and says a lot about the people who work there. The space itself is fantastic. It is always spotless, the ambiance is relaxed, the music is great, and there are so many comfortable places to sit depending on your mood. Sometimes I relax on the couches, other times I grab a table or sit near the window and enjoy the view. They also have plenty of outdoor seating, which is perfect on sunny Boise days and makes it a great place to sit outside and enjoy the atmosphere. It is one of those places where you can easily spend time working, meeting someone, or just enjoying a great cup of coffee. They also have great food, which makes it even better whether you are stopping in for a quick bite or staying a while. Everything I have tried has been fresh and really good. You can also tell that management cares about both their employees and their customers. When a place is run well it shows through the staff, the atmosphere, and the overall experience, and District Coffee absolutely delivers. I am new to Boise and this is one of the first places I recommend when someone asks where to get great coffee or find a comfortable place to spend some time. I have also had great experiences at their other locations. Boise is lucky to have them.

Pengilly's Saloon is, without a doubt, a Boise treasure. Located in the heart of the Old Boise…read moreHistoric District, walking through the doors truly feels like taking a step back in time. It is no wonder Esquire Magazine once called this spot "the one true classic in Boise." The atmosphere is steeped in history, featuring a stunning 114-year-old hardwood Brunswick bar and a beautiful turn-of-the-century National Cash Register. From the vintage cigarette machine by the door to the classic pool table, every corner of the saloon radiates character and charm. The history here is fascinating--it originally served as a grocery store before transitioning into the Stockman's Pastime Bar in the 70s, eventually becoming the Pengilly's we know and love in 1976. That legacy is felt in the soul of the building. The service is consistently excellent. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making every visit a great experience. Whether I'm ordering a Sex on the Beach or sticking to a Shirley Temple when I'm the designated driver, the drinks are always spot on. My fiancé usually goes for a double Jack and Coke, and we always have a fantastic time soaking in the live music performed by talented local artists. If you are looking for an authentic, historic, and lively spot in Boise with a warm atmosphere and great vibes, Pengilly's Saloon is the place to be. We can't recommend it enough!

I bought vip tickets for me and my kid, which were supposed to include early entry and a poster of the event. When we arrived we were denied early entry. Apparently the headlining band had their own vip thing going and the house vip tickets didn't count for anything. We were told we had to wake outside like everyone else. We also didn't receive any poster as advertised. Payed $50 a tick and received the same experience as a $17 ticket. So if you find yourself here, go for the general admission tickets. You'll get the same experience and save yourself a chunk of change.

My husband and I really wanted to like this place! The setting is wonderful and the ambience is…read morereally nice. We had breakfast there this morning and it was just OK. We both got the traditional eggs Benedict... and I ate maybe 15% of my breakfast and just stopped. My husband ate all of his... but mostly because he was just hungry... Much like our Labrador who will eat absolutely anything! Haha. But he said it was only OK. He rated it a 5/10. What he disliked the most was the potatoes. They were fairly hard/tough and tasted like they were fried in old oil and sitting under heat lamps for two hours before we got them. They were very dehydrated as well. For me... The hollandaise sauce was fresh, but had no flavor. It needed more lemon or salt or something. The ham was odd... I'm a little too salty. It seemed like Hillshire Farms sliced ham. Not something you would expect at a nice restaurant in your eggs Benedict. Also, I ordered an Arnold Palmer... And it was so sour that I had to send it back. I poured like a heaping teaspoon of sugar into it, and it didn't even make a difference.... It was that sour. It actually started to make my stomach hurt a little. So I sent it back. And the waitress was very nice, and didn't charge me for it. The service was good... But they cram everyone in there on one side of the restaurant... at least outside. I have no idea why... They have all this space in front of their restaurant and yet they try and cram everybody right next to each other. It was very annoying, and made me just wanna leave. They have many tables on the other side like 10 feet away... But they insisted on cramming everybody into the same small area. And you could tell nobody wanted to be that close to one another. I'm not sure if they do this to make it easier for their servers... Or to make the restaurant look busy. Either way, it's a practice that they really should stop. My advice to the restaurant... Utilize your space outside in front, stop cramming people so close together. When you have to get up and move your chair so someone can get to their table... it's ridiculous! On a positive note... Their coffee was actually really good! Some of the best that we've had in a restaurant in many many years. And I know, I mentioned it above, but I should mention it again... The weight staff was wonderful. From the girl who greeted us at the front podium, to our waitress, and the waitressing training. Everyone was wonderful. So, to end this review... I can only comment on the breakfast. We didn't have anything else there, and maybe it will be good... But I'm not sure if I'm willing to give this place another try. Good luck!

The atmosphere is like a hunting lodge, and really makes it cozy in there. Dog friendly. Great vibes. It's a full liquor bar and if you order food at Manfred's next door they'll bring it to you at Doc's. I really like their patio area with fireplaces for chilly nights. They also do local comedy every Wednesday. Zach, Rachel, and the rest of the staff are very laid back. Top shelf liquor but they crack a mean pbr as well. The old owners were terrible and made me stay away. The new owners/staff have done a great job of turning the place around!
