Whiskey Street Cocktails & Dining

On my way out to Idaho, I followed a suggestion to try The Whiskey for brunch. Luckily parking was free because it was on a Sunday. Hallelujah!

There was a DJ at the front playing cool 80s tunes, and there was a healthy amount of people already dining and having bloodies. Despite it having a classy Irish bar vibe, it is not dark inside. There's great natural lighting and it's pretty open air. There is also a patio, but we decided to sit at the bar.

I was very much craving a bloody (as you probably could tell already) and a bomb-a$$ breakfast bagel. It was pretty dead at the bar, yet the bartender took awhile to make his way over to us. He definitely saw us when we sat down, but he didn't wanna seem to deal with our a$$es. Lil' grumpy bartendy, aw.

The New Place Bloody is not that spicy, but it's tasty. It's $10 each (most expensive compared to the other $8 bloodies), so I felt bad putting multiple on my friend's tab. Then he got a damn good old fashioned -- for brunch! Whew.

Food came out in a decent amount of time. My friend was pleased with his Whiskey Street Breakfast, but he may have lower standards. My Breakfast Bagel looked better than it tasted, and I wish I could say the same for the potatoes. The potatoes seemed old and definitely were boring. No seasoning or anything, so I easily could have made better at home.

The Breakfast Bagel is what I cared about most, but the bagel itself was like rubber. Not fun. The ingredients sound good on paper, but the flavor fails to be delivered. Boring. You can find better.

I would want to come back and try later in the evening for drinks only, but maybe when that brunch bartender is gone.
