The Cactus Bar is a lively dive bar known for its gritty atmosphere and friendly staff. The bar offers open mic stand-up comedy and strong pours at affordable prices. Although a card payment option is now available, there is a $6 ATM fee. The bar can be described as slightly dirty and skeezie, but that only adds to its charm. Regulars and newcomers alike enjoy chatting with each other, making it a welcoming hole-in-the-wall establishment.
Customers praise the bartenders for their attentive and fun service, with one reviewer highlighting Ken as an "amazing" server who went above and beyond to help them. The bar is a favorite among locals, with one customer describing it as the "best dive bar in Boise" and mentioning the popular pumpkin pie eating contest. The Cactus Bar is strictly a bar, with no food options, but it offers a lively and welcoming atmosphere for those seeking a casual drinking experience.
