5 Best Dive Bars in Boise

“🙂👍 Chelsea does a great job bartending!“

“The Cactus was my first stop 30 years ago on my 21st birthday and has never disappointed since. Reasonably priced drinks and reasonably nice people/staff. Best dive bar in Boise, imho. No food. Except for the pumpkin pie eating contest!!!

Kid-friendliness: No kids. It's strictly a bar.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchairs would be okay at Cactus.“

“Best dive bar in town to come hangout and have a great time with friends. Also the new local food hanging out truck 208 taco libre is amazing. Come check it for yourself you won’t be disappointed 🍺🌮“
