    French dip

    Stopped in here to get a bite to eat and have a beer. The place is clean and friendly service. The food is on the small side for the price.

    House made Hot Wings these were so crispy and delicious! The hot sauce OMG!

    We came here last week for lunch and I am sure glad we did. We had all intentions of going somewhere else and drove by here and said why not...walking in very open, clean bar/pub...tons of seating all around. This place is a little deceiving from the outside but once inside this place is pretty good sized. Plus tons of TVs everywhere and not a bad place in the house to watch a game. Plus they have pool and darts in the back along with a shuffleboard table. Once sat very friendly bartender came over and took our drink order. After a quick glance of the menu I immediately knew I wanted to try their version of hot wings. BTW I don't know what's up with the Boise area but finding good wings is an absolute challenge. Most places that I have been to don't even dry them? I have even had them microwaved totally disgusting! Not here at this joint because after drinking my beer and ordering another my wings came out. They serve them dry and will toss them if you ask but wanted to see how these wings tasted naked. Now these aren't traditional drums and flats because they don't separate them which I love . Makes for a way more juicy wing. These hand made and brined wings are delicious! Be forewarned they come out pipping hot so let them cool for a minute. First bite in I was like "YES"! I finally found some good wings in Boise! Served with your choice of ranch, blue cheese or both which I did. The holy grail for me was not only the wing but their Buffalo hot sauce is Amazing!!! I even asked the bartender if they bottled it. Just the right amount of heat to leave a little reminder behind...my wife had the chicken, bacon ranch wrap with fries and loved it as well. I also ordered a side of fries well done and man these were also perfectly cooked golden beauties seasoned perfectly. This made my week finding a great sports bar that has a real locals feel to it. Not some high priced cocktails serving drinks. Just down home feeling place that I will for sure be back to...

    I had high hopes for Hooligan's especially after hearing about how awesome their burgers are. However I found this sport bar pretty average. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad in any way at all but it wasn't exceptionally memorable either. My husband and I sat at the bar and ordered a PBR ($3.00) and cranberry vodka ($6.00), respectively. For grub, we chose Nachos ($9.00/half order, $16.00 for full) with beer cheese (+$2.00) and chicken (+$3.00), and the highly acclaimed Hooligan's Burger (locally-raised, grass-fed beef with grilled onions, lettuce, tomato on an Acme brioche bun with fries, $13.00) with American cheese. The price is just right for the great quality of the food. The nachos were fantastic - they were extremely generous with the toppings which were all fresh. I couldn't really tell a difference in the cheese. The burger was cooked just pink enough (which is default, you have to tell them if you'd like it more well done). But it wasn't much more than another pub burger. Again, I am not saying it wasn't great. It just didn't stand out in my long, long list of fantastic burgers the Treasure Valley offers. Fries were yummy!

    We were looking for a local hangout since moving into the neighborhood recently. We went here during Happy Hour the first time and were quickly and friendly acknowledged. Our drinks were mixed well. Happy Hours prices were very fair. Oh yeah, this place has a FULL BAR even though Yelp hasn't been updated. The regulars go there to have fun and seem friendly. Due to Covid, you can't sit at the bar and tables are spread apart. I know this place will get even better once everything is opened back up..

    6th person to review Hooligans Pub and Grill in Boise, Idaho near 5 Mile and Overland. This is my 442nd review. I went in for the "pub & grill" part on a weekday afternoon. I am only glad that I went in because of the experience, but never will I go again. They promote their food but when we walked in and asked for a menu the waitress was less than happy about that. Why would that be? Well, she is the cook, too! The best part though is that the food is cooked on a Walmart skillet by the waitress near the bar. We ordered a chicken salad and a BBQ Hamburger. The chicken on the salad was still cold and was microwaved! I don't know about you but frozen, microwaved chicken is something that I don't want to pay for. The hamburger was just like the one you make at home on a grill. The waitress/bartender was less than happy that we ordered food. The place looks cool though. A bar in the middle of the area, a few pool tables. Don't come in here expecting anything more than a 2-star meal.

    Wow! Under new ownership and the food is excellent. Amazing wings, housemade dressings, Acme bread and organic beef burgers. Great prices and a fun gathering spot.

    Strolled into this neighborhood dive-ish bar during the holidays with friends and was surprised by the cleanliness, friendliness and service. Guess they recently started serving food which was a great surprise! Food was delish - chix sandwich was huge, fresh and the chilies added a nice touch. The wings came out 'naked' which were perfect - who needs the extra mess-accompanied by 3 homemade sauces including hot,sweet spicy wing sauce. The wedge salmon was outstanding- grilled to perfection. They pour strong tasty drinks priced VERY responsibly. Full bar and regional beers. Music loud eNough to love but still talk. Nice pool tables and shuffle board too. New owners seem to know what they are doing and seem care about the quality and experience - think Cheers without being corny. Give it a try!

    I've been to this VooDoo brewing location a couple times. First time I went in for a drink with…read moreco-workers before we went to do an escape room nearby and yesterday I placed an order online for non-alcoholic drinks and food to go. I will say the staff here are extremely nice and their drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic are great but food was a bit disappointing for me. I know I am going to sound like a complete weirdo listing what I ordered (which yeah, I am.. what can I say, I have unique taste buds) .. I ordered a lavender lemonade, a maple pecan cream soda and for food the "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" burger with a side of "VooDill" fries. The burger is like a smash burger topped with a blackberry jam and creamy peanut butter and the fries had dill seasoning. The fries were actually pretty good and worth the uncharged for the dill seasoning, the drinks I got were very tasty - if you like lavender like I do, definitely get their lavender lemonade! I like that it doesn't taste watered down or super perfume like, it was a perfect balance of lavender flavor!! The canned maple pecan cream soda was good as well, it reminds me of the Butter Beer you can get in Universal Studio's Harry Potter Wizarding World but it also tasted like it had such an insane amount of sugar that my heart might explode so probably better to just not get that. Now when it comes to the burger, I've had a few peanut butter burgers and while I know it's strange I typically enjoy them and this one could have been very good but it tasted like they put half a container of creamy peanut butter on a burger and gave me only the tiniest bit of blackberry jam. All I could really taste eating this was the peanut butter and I like peanut butter but it wasn't pleasant and definitely not worth $15. The little hint of blackberry jam was delicious but gone after the first bite.. they need to balance out the portions of the PB and Jam. If you're a fan of PB burgers, I recommend going to Sid's Garage at the Village in Meridian instead.. they have a PBJ burger that'll knock your socks off- and in theirs you can taste all the flavors, not just a pile of peanut butter!

    This is a great place to meet friends for lunch or a brew…read more The good The food here has been excellent every time I've visited. I want to say that the tastes are 'rich'. Lots of taste in the food that I've ordered. Hearty eaters will finish their portion, but the rest of you will be asking for a box. The meh - Nothing to report It seems they've been short staffed a couple times when I visited. The bad - Nothing to report
