There are 3 bartenders and they are all fabulous SUCH a good espresso martini ask for it on the sweeter side and it’s fabulous. Also had a Ameretto sour, sooo yummy. If u are vegan ask for it with no egg and a splash of pineapple juice it’s so good !! Christmas lights are so sweet and cozy, great place for date night or chill chats with friends
Had dinner with coworkers prior to going to Press and Pony so no food to review but cocktails were had and were tasty and delicious! In particular was this Old Fashioned. A great way to end the evening!
Such a cool little bar. Always friendly, great service and the staff are super personable. It's that perfect mix of dive, great cocktails and speak easy. Top Boise bar and a must visit. The old fashioned is stellar if you're a bourbon drinker. Also appreciate that they don't pack it in, must be seating to be served. It makes for a much better experience.
I love this place. If I lived here, I'd hang out here all the time! I felt so comfortable and like I could stay there for hours and hours. It has such a great atmosphere, the service is fantastic and the drinks are delicious! Take the time to look at the photos. I think they tell a story of the bar. I'm not 100 percent which drink I had, but I loved it!
One of my favorite spots we went to in Boise. Loved my cocktail, the service was so great. Our bartender was friendly and knowledgeable about the area and mixology. Definitely stop here
Nice little place. Love the atmosphere. At the entrance is a curtain you have to walk through. Bar on the left, couple small tables on the right. And a few more small tables in the back. To get to the bathroom you have to walk through a curtain in back which leads directly into the Boise Fry company for their bathrooms. Love the original drinks. Some were very involved to make so it was fun watching them being made. I got the Blood and Sand which was one of the sweeter drinks.
What a cool place! Drinks are delicious, and the atmosphere is such a vibe. Recommend stopping in and having a great drink
Great speak easy in down town Boise. Don’t be afraid to go through the curtains. What’s on the other side is a bar that feels like cheers, everyone knows your name m, unless it’s your first time. If it’s around Christmas make sure you get the Hot Buttered Rum. It will make you get in the spirit and feel like home.
