“Great staff! This is like our own personal Cheers “where everybody knows your name”, including your drink preferences. It’s like visiting our extended family. Love the BBQ ribs, steak & shrimp skewers, fresh, green salads and rich, mushroom soup.“
“I've been to the Varsity Pub twice, and have enjoyed both visits. I've gone once on a weekend night when it was suuuuper busy, and during the week when it's a light crowd. The two male bartenders there are super nice and friendly. They both whip up drinks fast. The atmosphere is nice, with low lights and sport decor. This is a great go-to bar when the restaurants in meridian are closing, but you and the girls still want to keep drinking without going downtown to the Boise mayhem. Such a low key vibe. I would recommend this bar for a crowd.“
“My wife and I have been here a few times now for lunch. Their lunch specials are a great deal and taste delicious! Their fries are incredible as well and even though the meal looks on the smaller side, it always seems to be the perfect amount for a good lunch!“
“Wow! Amazing food, friendly and helpful staff. The mac and cheese was to die for! The owners and staff make you feel so welcome. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. Will definitely be recommending The Local to my friends and family. 10 out of 10!“
“Fun popular place. We hadn't heard of it before & decided to check it out. Friendly service, the food came quickly, especially since they were packed. Our food was tasty. Our party enjoyed the carnitas tacos, sweet chili wings & the pretzel. The fiesta chicken salad was tasty as well, and a decent beer selection is always a plus.Kid-friendliness: They serve food so kids are welcome. My son was the only kid in there & it wasn't an issue at all. Friendly staff & customers.Wheelchair accessibility: Fully packed Friday night. It's a seat yourself establishment & was packed. I was Leary, but the staff was on it & so were the customers. The waitress was looking for options & a party of 4 was finishing up & offered their table, our friends were already in the back though so we squeaked through & Had a great night. ?“
“I spent about 3 hours here on St. Patrick's Day. It was my first time here. The weather was good so we could be outside. My rating of 4 stars for atmosphere is based on being outside; I cannot say what it is like to spend time inside. The inside seemed like what one would expect of a neighborhood bar.I had to park far down the side street from the pub. There is very little on-site parking. It was not surprising to have to park far away given this place is on the corner of a busy main street and a lot of people attended this holiday eventThe staff had decorated for the holiday and they were dressed in green as were many of the patrons. It was crowded so we were lucky to get a place to sit.One of the first things I noticed was the stench of cigarette smoke. It was strong even though we were outside. Later it was not noticeable so the smokers must have left. The smoke and inadequate seating are why I have given 4 stars for atmosphere.Patrons had to go to the bar inside to get their drinks. There was a bar outside but I didn't see staff there the couple of times I passed by. The bar was super busy so they ran out of glasses. The staff members were working hard to take care of everyone. The staff were friendly and efficient.There were so many people attending this event that it was too loud to be able to hear my table mates. Again, not surprising.At 3:00 a rock band started playing. The music was fun but it was way too loud--even for outside. I noticed this pub regularly has bands outside in the summer.The pub had a counter set up outside where they were serving plates of corned beef and vegetables. Patrons paid $8 inside at the bar and took a token to the food table. The food was good and was like you would get at a family meal. The food wasn't hot because the staff had the lids off the roasting ovens in order to seve the food. The food was good anyway, the portions were generous and the price was right.After I ate I left. There were bagpipers later in the day. I was told that they were not too loud, which is good!I think this pub is fine for a neighborhood bar. For people who like hanging out outside and listening to music during the summer at a neighborhood bar it is a good place to go.“
“Such a fun spot for karaoke and drinks with friends! The bartender we got was super nice and helped us figure out what kind of drink we'd like, and I can't remember either of their names but he called her "mom" due to her experience and how long she's been there and trained them, she was absolutely amazing! I didn't know if they had a drink on the menu so I asked and she asked for a recipe and made it perfectly! Her recommendations for my friend were so good and exactly what she was hoping for. Great service, great drinks, great karaoke, and some darts to top off the night, all for a great price! Would definitely recommend.“
“Hooligans has changed a lot with new ownership and mostly for the better. They have a lot more organization that has brought in a more respectful crowd. The food is better than you'd think, and the mixed drinks are surprisingly good. The best part for us is they are within walking distance of our home. This was the first place we took our son for some adult fun when he turned 21. Fun memories.“
“LOVE Sully's! We've been going to Sully's for about 2 years now and it's our favorite restaurant in town. The food is consistently great. If you've never had their spinach dip appetizer, do yourself a favor and order it, it's delicious! All of the entrees are great and their desserts are awesome too. We've always had great service and the servers are super friendly.“
“McCleary's pub is a cozy and friendly neighborhood bar located in the heart of Boise, Idaho. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff and regulars who make you feel like part of the family. The menu is simple but satisfying, with classic pub fare like burgers, wings, and fries. The beer selection is impressive, with a variety of local and regional brews on tap. Overall, McCleary's is a great spot to grab a drink and a bite to eat with friends, or to unwind after a long day.“
“Ok 2nd time at Rudy's in Meridian and service both times was amazing, food was hot , fast and good and priced reasonably. Definitely worth trying...I personally love the Rueben, perfect mix of tart sauerkraut and thousand island dressing on marbled Rye, fries are crisp, Onion rings are perfectly cooked. Crispy wings are great.“
