Hike Table Rock
A lot of locals do this every week – it’s a tradition of sorts, and when you get to the top you will see why. The most popular route climbs steeply from the Old Penitentiary parking lot to the top. It’s an old road, so it’s quite wide for the majority of its length – just keep looking up! When you get to the top, take in the stunning views of the rolling foothills and cityscapes below.

Paella on the Patio
The Basque Block is super-cool, and many Boise natives descend from this special region – even the Mayor! But every Boisean delights in lunchtime paella on The Basque Market’s patio. It happens every Wednesday and Friday at noon – but you better plan to get there by 12:15 or it will be sold out!

Get a Beer
Craft breweries abound in Boise, and many are located right in the downtown core (read: easy to get from one to another). Payette Brewing has a fantastic indoor/outdoor vibe, as does Boise Brewing. Barbarian Brewing has a cool 21-and-over taproom, while Lost Grove Brewing is located on a hip industrial block by the university. You can’t go wrong with sampling some Boise-born brews!
