We love LOVE this place! We had the most AMAZING waitress named Brooklyn. We absolutely loved her and will request her every single time we come ❤️

I haven't been out in a while. This place hit home. It was suggested to get the mac & cheese, so i did. I ordered their mac & cheese, and I added their pulled pork and jalapeños. This plate was so creamy and delicious with layers of flavor in every bite. I was blown away. Usually, cavatappi noodles are underdone and chewy, but these were perfectly done. The cheese was an amazing burst of creamy cheese, no velveeta here. The burger flavor was just delicious, and be sure and get the loaded fries. It's an upcharge, but it's worth it! Did I mention I have an addiction to their cowboy candy (aka: candied jalapeños)? You have GOT to add these to everything. I sure do!

Great place for food and drinks. Cocktails were fabulous! Jewelia, our waitress, was amazing!

Loved going back! Food, service & atmosphere are great! Small town atmosphere of friendly staff with menu of International tastes. The Mocktail’s are super fun.

Been here once before with friends and sat outside. Food was good and the service was slow but decent. Returned today with my wife and 2 kids under 21. We were turned away even from the patio setting. Online listing doesn't inform you it’s 21and up even during the day for food inside/outside. Place was empty while everywhere else was packed. Recommend heading down the street to “GRIT”.

We had a great experience thanks to our server Olivia! She was friendly, attentive, and incredibly fast, which made everything run smoothly for our group. Everyone was really happy with her service — she made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Highly recommend!

We have had many lunches and dinners at the Caldwell Craft Lounge, and have never had a bad meal, drink or service! Our latest late lunch early dinner was on May 9th, and our server Jewelia was top notch! Perfectly timing her return to our table, never had to ask her for anything, smile on her face the whole time! Love the Craft Lounge!

First time trying the Caldwell location and we had James as our waiter. We tried the mushroom bisque (very good and creamy), olives and baguette (my husband said they were high quality and tasted great), and the salmon dip (sooo good!) for appetizers. I ordered the whiskey chicken and my husband ordered the mac n cheese with cowboy candy, candy bacon, and Bleu cheese (he was shocked how spicy the cowboy candy was, he is a spice guy and wasn't expecting the kick, he ate it all). I was not as big of a fan of the chicken, James asked me if I was sure I liked it because I don't like to cause trouble I tried to hesitate, he immediately offered me a different option and took care of that part of the bill, and I went with the pear salad (very refreshing and sweet). Service was phenomenal! Atmosphere was very chic and fun. James then showed us to the downstairs bar to check it out and it is so cute! 10/10 would be back, James was a great server and we had a great time! Thank you for all you do!

As far as the sandwiches go: Pork belly burger was good, but different. The Nashville was better. Cuban is also very good.

What a surprise in Caldwell, ID. This hidden gem has been beautiful remodeled from the main area, to the back bar, to the speak easy downstairs. They even have a great private room for parties. Oh, the food is top notch, and the drinks are perfectly made. Stop by next time you are in the 2C.

Update! The owner got in touch with me via email and we had a great conversation about my experience. I've been back 4 or so times since this review and haven't had any issues whatsoever and truly enjoyed each visit. Really happy to have such a yummy spot to visit often. Thank you!

I usually really enjoy this spot; it's my favorite local place to go for superior service, excellent food and delicious craft cocktails. Unfortunately tonight was not up to par. I came by myself and ordered a drink that took quite a while to get to me, which happens. Then I ordered an app and a meal. Both came at the same time for some reason, which was incredibly annoying and unreasonable. I was sitting outdoors so I had to not only pick which item I would eat hot, but also fight with the flies to keep my food clean(ish). I ended up using my napkin which obviously left me without a napkin. I ordered another cocktail which was also excellent (all in all I had fruit of the loin, huckleberry g&t and the pineapple Express, all superb, highly recommend). My Nashville chicken sandwich came with a thigh much smaller than my bun and wasn't spicy, 2 pickles, and a tiny squeeze of mayo. The side Caesar had flavorless (and unsalty!?) parm shreds and the sauce did not have the anchovy umami I expected. The loaded fries were perfection. In the end, I've never been here during happy hour and I will not come back during happy hour. The food suffered and the service suffered and it wasn't worth my 1 hr drive to be honest. I prefer the better service and food at higher prices.
