Boise possesses some truly great architecture represented by the motley assortment of buildings that have been saved from the wrecking ball! Some of these fantastic time capsules have become home to wonderful craft cocktail bars blending the history of their craft with the beautiful historic buildings these establishments have helped to preserve!

On the Cocktail and History Walking Tours - The Avery Hotel and Brasserie, we will start our tour bar-side, sitting at the nearly 130 year old Brunswick Bar, the former centerpiece of Boise's historic Bouquet Bar, while enjoying a craft cocktail created with Boise's history in mind. This tour will take you throughout the Tiner Building to tell you tales of the theaters once filling the lower levels of the structure as well as stories from the Manitou Hotel once calling the upper three floors of the Tiner home. The Avery's staff will tell you the story of the building's restoration and their vision for the establishment's future! Finally, an Idahistory guide will walk you around Boise's historic Business Block, presenting you with the block's history and the Tiner Building's place in that larger story.

One of Boise's most unique and well preserved historic gems is the old R.Z. Johnson apartment building, now the home of Ochos Cocktail and Wine Bar. Designed by well known architect John C. Paulsen in 1892, the Johnson Building is the last remaining example of the many structures he constructed in Boise. We will begin our tour with a handcrafted cocktail inside Ochos with a presentation of the building's history, including a tour of the premises before taking a walk through Boise's original downtown core. Historian and guide Mark Iverson will regale you with tales of crime, life in the brothels and the mass production and impact of booze in old Boise City. A small amount of wholesome history will be included! Upon conclusion of our walkabout, we'll return to Ochos for another libation and questions.
