People in Idaho love the outdoor lifestyle — especially when it comes to going out on the town. From rooftop bars with Foothills’ views to riverside patios, the Boise area enjoys a plethora of options for al fresco drinking and dining.
The lure of cafe patios became a factor in downtown Boise’s revitalization that started in the 1990s, drawing happy-hour customers to sit on the sidewalk and watch the world go by. Today, almost every restaurant, bar, coffee shop and deli, offers a table outside.
Whether you enjoy the newly-opened Sturman’s Wine and Cigars in Garden City, or old-school downtown classics like Cottonwood Grille along the Boise River, or the splashy fountain-side patio at The Village at Meridian, the area offers a variety of options for those wanting an afternoon outside with a drink in hand.
With all of the options available, it’s hard to pinpoint the best patio in the Treasure Valley. That’s why we want your help.
