I came in not knowing what to expect at all as I hadn’t been in maybe 10+ years (since I was a kid), but we needed somewhere to watch our team and this spot was near where I could drop our daughter off so we could watch the game and have a drink. Let me just say, I had my first-ever Bloody Mary here and it was SO good, I’m scared to try them anywhere else. I was on cloud nine after just one and it was affordable AND full of flavor & spice. What more could I ask for? 10/10 in all areas. Only suggestion would be cheese and/or bacon on the stick with the olives/pepper but I genuinely had zero complaints and was so impressed. My partner regretted not ordering one himself, and he’s usually beer-only so that says something!

We ordered the mini corn dogs and mozzarella sticks as a starter. The dogs tasted just like their big brethren with a nice balance of corn and dog. The Mozzarella Sticks were the star of the meal. They were perfectly crunchy with just the right amount of cheese. Three burgers rounded out the plan. Two of them were cooked to order the third missed the mark, but the manager corrected the issue. The seasoning was spot on. The cheese oozed over the onions or peppers. The bun was nice. I missed mayonnaise, but didn't ask for it, so, my bad. On my burger scale, it is an 8 of 10. This place is solid and I would done again.

We wanted to celebrate our recent move to Boise and luckily picked a great spot to do it. Instructions were a little unclear about seating yourself and notifying staff of your arrival but JP was on top of things. He went over the beer selection, got us the last two Prime Ribs specials, and a delicious cheesecake when I thought I had no more room to eat. The staff (especially JP!) were always present and able to anticipate anyone's needs. Also, a nearby kid needed medical attention and a waitress got her vehicle to rush him to the hospital. Can't wait to go back and support this business.

I came to visit Boise and celebrate my friend’s life. All of her friends went to The Refuge for drinks and food. The staff was amazing and even wore Buffalo Bills shirts (she was a huge fan) because she used to watch the games there. The wings were by the far the best I’ve had outside of Buffalo or Rochester, NY (maybe even better) and served with crispy celery. The other food was great. I also had the pesto chicken pasta (yum) later and we all sampled each others food. The beer was fresh and the mixed drinks good (not too strong, not watered down). Great spot if you’re down near the quarry.
