We are a cocktail lounge & oyster bar welcoming all who are looking for a nice drink, friendly people, and maybe a snack.
GOOD BAR ALL NIGHT
Classically trained and escapists at heart, we are serving approachable classics as well as our alpine-tropical inspirations with modern cocktails, punch bowls, and low+no ABV libations. We emphasize high quality ingredients, balanced drinks, strong technique, and attention to details like “good ice” and the right glass.
OYSTER BAR
We are a PacNW bar and think it’s important to prioritize regional flavors on our menu. We source our oysters from Hama Hama Oysters, an ethical and sustainable oyster farm in Lilliwaup, WA. Hama Hama’s shellfish beds are located at the mouth of one of the shortest, coldest, and least developed rivers in Washington State, and that purity is reflected in the clean, crisp flavor of the oysters downstream. Hama Hama utilizes low impact farming methods to grow world-class oysters, and we could not be luckier to shuck them for you at our downtown Boise cocktail lounge— AKA Boise’s best oyster bar!
PUNCH BOWLS
A cocktail bar like ours is a gathering place for community— a “third place”. We are ALWAYS glad to host your larger groups. Bring your friends, kin, colleagues, or meet someone new! Order a punch bowl and stay a while.
NON-ALCOHOLIC COCKTAILS
Moderation is important, that’s why our menu always includes low-ABV and non-alcoholic options for those who want to slow down, bridge the gap, are sober-curious, or are simply abstaining. Whatever the reason, we are proudly offering a variety in choice for n/a drinks.
THE BEST OLD FASHIONEDS
We offer a different Old Fashioned Of The Day every day, one of the many ways we get to express our creativity and train ourselves as bartenders. Whenever you visit our bar you have the opportunity to try this daily special— a unique Old Fashioned, perfectly balanced, served in a nice cold glass. But of course, our house recipe is always a strong choice if you’re feeling classic.
VINYL NIGHT
We play all vinyl all night every Wednesday, 5:00-11:00. Come for the lo-fi vibes or BYO records and help us host the best party in town. It’s a community tables night, so you can play your own. Great vibes and an eclectic atmosphere is guaranteed.
#AllWaxWednesday
HAPPY HOUR
Happy Hour is offered daily 4pm-6pm, and all night on Tuesdays, including drink specials, bar snacks, and $2 fresh oyster shucks.
