Barbarian Brewing Taproom - Garden City

Our favorite brewery in Boise. Now in a cool new location

This brewery was the highlight of our 3 night stop in Boise. We loved it so much we came back the very next evening. The beer is fantastic, the food truck, Kismet, is incredible, but the amazing bartenders and vibe of the whole joint is what really made it special. Thank you guys for an awesome time!

My favorite brewery in Boise! Both locations are great, but I really appreciate the amount of room to spread out in the Garden City location. Love the atmosphere and the friendly staff (Devin), and most importantly the beers! So awesome that they offer a wide variety of beer styles, and they're all absolute bangers. No trip to Boise is complete without a visit or two to Barbarian. Can and bottle prices are very reasonable with killer sales, and while it's a silly thing to get excited about, their $2 tallboy coozies are very high quality.

Pretty decent beer, but they don 't allow minors (our kid is 7 months old) after 4pm at the new location. Which is weird because we 've had our kid at both of the other locations past 4pm. I get it if they don 't want loud kids. Even still, it seems like a strange business practice. I don 't know anyone that wouldn 't show up if there were kids present, but I know many people that won 't show up because they don 't allow kids. We used to be fans, but now we will just hit Western Collective, Mother Earth, or Payette, all of which are kid friendly and have better vibes anyways. Maybe rethink the policy? No kids after 8pm would be more reasonable as most kids are in bed so they wouldn 't be kicking post-work parents to the curb. Edit: Changed to 4 stars after the response from the owner. We 're glad we get to take our daughter there now. We appreciate Barbarian 's policy change after getting the new location up to speed!

Mojitos beer was ok. Yuppy vibe. No food. Weak customer service.
