    Up North just won best distillery in North Idaho, and for good reason. The owners are crafting truly unique spirits made from honey, apples, malts, and even pine cones. Highly recommend getting the Gauntlet Flight and trying all 9 of their spirits. The owners are very nice people who are passionate about creating great products!

    A cozy award winning craft distillery specializing in brandy, whiskey and honey spirits. Tastings range from the apple brandies to the aged whiskey, $8-$12 for a flight of three. Fruits, honey and grains are locally sourced, hand batched and super smooth to enjoy both in a cocktail or a snifter. Bottles of spirits can also be purchased in the shop next door. Their cocktail menu is absolutely amazing, and offers a unique range of flavors and unique concepts. Must try: Walnut ginger old fashioned - Barrel reserve honey spirits muddled with fresh ginger, walnut bitters and demerara Smoke in the Meadow - Barrel reserve honey spirits St. Germain and bitters Served in a cedar smoked glass This is a must do for spirit and cocktail lovers!

    Small, cozy tasting room

    I love these little hidden gems. Such a cozy place to have some serious upscale cocktails! These guys also run, or own or supply, not 100% sure, The Bees Knees in Hayden, another of our favorites when we're feeling bougee! Great place to unwind. The summer time usually sees a local food truck out there.

    An excellent Old fashioned!

    We had so much fun here and were so glad we drove out from Coeur d'Alene to check it out! It was definitely one of our favorite experiences during our stay in the area. Our bartender was amazing - knowledgeable about all things alcohol and fun to chat with. That's exactly what we hope to find when we walk into a distillery and sit at the bar! We thought he might have been part owner based on his knowledge and comfort level, but he said he had only been there for maybe 4 months! What a find for Up North Distillery! When we couldn't find a bourbon distillery, we decided to check out this place which specializes in honey spirits. We weren't too sure what to expect and I'd have to say we were pleasantly surprised. We tasted a couple of their spirits and liked the fact that they weren't sweet like we had guessed they would be. I think they are definitely a place people should check out and definitely don't prejudge if you've never had their spirits before. If you're unsure of what to order, hubby and I would certainly recommend the old fashioned made with their spirits instead of bourbon.

    Tastes of the honey as well as the apple spirits were fabulous! Randy took time to explain the process and I walked away feeling educated! Grabbed a long sleeve hoodie and a fifth of the apple bourbon! We will be back again one day!

    Love this place!

    The staff here are amazing and there is no place in Idaho or Washington I'd rather be than here on a Friday night!!! If you are in the mood for a good drink or even a Bloody Mary head here!!! Love it

    Their take on the old fashioned
    Chanele R.

    The spirits here are the real deal! I am a particular fan of the aged honey spirits, but the apple brandy is nothing to sneeze at! They distill their own liquor (and whiskey is coming soon!!), but they also have a choice of other liquors, beers, and wine. The atmosphere is friendly and laid back. You can even have a snack! They have a hot dog food truck, and I was delighted to see it offers a veggie option! Really, you can't go wrong supporting this friendly, talented local business!!

    My wife and I love the Oval Office. Whenever our son is at a sleep-over or on a class trip, this is…read moreour late night spot. We love sitting at the bar and meeting new people. The bar tender is fun to talk with as well. The drinks are creative and very tasty. We also love to order the small dishes. When our son is home, we like to go here for dinner. I would say we have dinner more often at their sister restaurant, The White House, but we like to come here for a fun atmosphere and good food. Our son likes it better. So, there's something for everyone here and it certainly worth visiting.

    Made group reservations well in advance for a party of 14 and were VERY EXCITED for New Year's Eve…read more Was not even sat together, was split into 2 tables when there were other options/places to put us together. 3 people had to sit apart from us. Was very disappointed in that. And one person didn't get their food till the rest of us were almost finished. We were approached about 'how troublesome splitting the bill was going to be' ...yet we had no intention of splitting the bill and only wanted one check. No one was ever able to order a second beverage. And we got the bread after our food, once we asked if our meals came with bread. We didn't feel very welcome. We realize it was a busy night and we THOUGHT we had planned accordingly, only to be treated as an inconvenience. Also, Both people who ordered the burger special were sick as soon as we got home. Overall disappointing experience that we'd hoped would be a great night out for our group. Positive note: apps were DELICIOUS

    Had reservations for 5:30. Saturday October 11, 2025 4…read morepeople. It was busy when we first arrived (happy hour) then it cleared out and got really busy by the time we left. Service was quick, we all enjoyed our dinners. I got medium on my New York steak. The potatoes are breaded so not GF. The vegetables were fresh. The lighting was ambiance low. It would've been nice to have classical or jazz music. The fireplace added a nice atmosphere.

    Let's talk about this .. I was very happy with the food…read more The service was a little rushed like checking boxes , not great eye contact, but that's ok I guess. The food was good. It arrived relatively quick . So I was happy. The lamb was fantastic. Here lamb burgers and the steak Tacos . You will be very happy you did. We sat in a booth and there is plenty of seating inside and out. There's room for golf Carts to park as well . When you leave you gotta be careful. Coming out the door to the left the walkway is short ? There is gaping hole or open space between the cement and a big rock. I almost fell . That area really should be filled in or rail or something there to prevent injuries , it's an accident waiting to happen. I'm older , so it's worrisome for me. I could have fallen and broke a hip or an ankle. I'll be on the look out next time I go , I will be back to give it a go again
