The Roosevelt — Restaurant in Meridian

The Roosevelt Bar is an excellent place to grab a drink and unwind after a long day or after dining out. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting with a mix of turn of the century feel with the brick walls but a motif of Moose, Bear, and Elk décor, and burl wood tables in the booths with dim lighting. Even with the taxidermy the vibe was more upscale and clean. They have a great selection of drinks. The bartenders, or should I say mixologists, are knowledgeable and friendly, always happy to make recommendations based on your tastes. The menu has a good variety of options, from classic cocktails to local beers and wines. We had Old Fashions, and they were mixed perfect with a lot of flavors with orange peel and black cherry. The cubes of ice are large rounds that prevents getting that splash on your lip full of crushed or cubed ice and kept the drink chilled to the last drop. There is a food truck just outside that can be accessed by The Roosevelt and the neighbor bar the Frontier. Overall, The Roosevelt Bar is a must-visit spot in Meridian, Idaho for anyone who enjoys a great drink and a...

If you’re looking for a drink after 10 pm, this is a great place to go in downtown Meridian. The area is quaint with plenty of parking nearby.

It was busy when we arrived at 11:00 pm but immediate seating was available. Service was prompt and the overall...

This place became an instant favorite just walking in! Such an awesome bar. Great booths to sit in, amazing drinks, and the bartender is awesome.

They also have a food truck out back too. Food takes a bit long to get, but if you're not in a hurry, it's worth the wait. They give you a buzzer, so you can still wait inside at your booth.

If you've ever been to Whiskey Bar downtown, this place had a similar vibe and style, but drinks are half the price! Even better!

Edit, late 2022: Still loving this place. A great chill place to spend some time with friends. Bartenders are great. And the vibe is awesome....
