Stopped in on our way through town. Chuck, the owner, was welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Very knowledgeable about the beers/wines available and about the surrounding area. Sensible guy. Fair pricing. Some local regulars came in while we were there, and they too were friendly and helpful. Really nice, chill spot to have a drink and chat. Quiet and mellow but apparently theyve got live music and some other livelier things going on on other days of the week. Met some nice dogs too.
Any time you come into a bar and see a group of regulars chatting like theyve known each other for decades, you know youre in for a good time. And this group of regulars had *t-shirts printed* for their group. Great conversations and great beer -- Chuck is super knowledgeable about everything he serves (beer and wine) and is super nice to boot. This might be the friendliest craft beer bar Ive ever been to -- and Ive been to quite a few!
The owner is a sweetheart and so is his dog. Fantastic selection of wine and beer handles. Sundays live band, The Dew Droppers, were absolutely fantastic. The cozy atmosphere and cool art work is very inviting. Becoming a regular here feels like the right thing to do.
We went on trivia night (unintentionally). Waited for staff to come to bar and serve us but they were nowhere to be found. Only guy that said a word to us was the guy on his laptop at the bar asking everyone trivia questions. Waited almost 10 mins for someone to come to the bar. We stood there waiting. And waiting....then we left and went to the other businesses on the same street for drinks, all of them were quick to serve us and the bartenders were actually behind the counter. Maybe this is a locals only bar.... but a paying customer is a paying customer.... right?
Chuck was an excellent host and Olie was the sweetest greeter. There was a nice variety of beers on tap and we enjoyed some great beer and conversation. Chuck and Olie helped make my sisters birthday special. We will definitely stop by again if were ever back in the area!
Great selections of beers and wines.. Ryan the Bartender was amazing!
BlackRock has one of the best atmospheres. The food is crazy good and theres always 30 beers on tap. Great spot to hangout after going out to eat!
Had a great night out with friends, Chuck is always so welcoming, it make it enjoyable to hang out and feel comfortable. Thursday night trivia with Becky is the best!
Literally the best quiet and chill taproom in the city! I cant get enough of this place!
Love the variety of beer on tap. Great customer service. Awesome band on Sundays.
Very friendly, great atmosphere! Love the Sunday brunch! Mouth watering food and amazing music for Idaho Falls! And cant forget... Amazing selection of very fine wines! Highly recommend❤
Amazing atmosphere adult contemporary. Great wine selection. A tremendous variety of beers. From music bingo to trivia night its always a wonderful place. Chuck the owner is just a phenomenal man
Im sure the wine is as good as the beer selection. Excellent fish tacos(San Diego quality). Owner seems to have a sense of humour( patron asks if the food is good!?). Gotta love the human race! If I am ever through this town again I will definitely stop by.
Food was good! Great beer selection. Good place to go with friends.
Very quaint little place. Occasionally they will have appropriate live music. They offer a few food choices. Open on Sunday, at which time you can enjoy unlimited Mimosas for $10
A wonderful place. I would have liked to have something to eat.
So many great beers on tap its hard to choose. But, thats not a problem as they will give you samples before you decide on a pint. Ive been going there for years. The staff has always been warm and customer oriented. There is nice and cozy loft for small groups. And, games available to bolster the comrodery. If youre not about beer on tap, theyve got plenty of unique wines to choose from either by bottle or glass. An offering of sharable foods is available to compliment your beverage consumption as well. Ive never not enjoyed myself while there.
Great place to stop and enjoy a drink with some friends. The food was delicious! I highly recommend the chicken tacos and the barbecue pizza was SOO good!
The Blackrock is a small beer/wine stop in downtown. Its clean, intimate, and always a varied and wide selection of beer. Great place to stop and have a cold beer at the end of a long day.
Excellent variety of ciders, beers, and other drinks. Upstairs has a large table and the bar has a sampling of fun games like cards against humanity that you can play.The service is generally quick and theyre good at picking out flavors if youre trying a new drink.
This is the place for wine sampling in Idaho Falls. Great selection, friendly service - did I say knowledgeable too. And the light food menu complements the quaffing beautifully.
By far one of the BEST bars my fiancé and I have ever been to!!! Awesome beer, amazing wine, tacos were to die for. Atmosphere/ambiance was super cozy, we felt like we were hanging out in our own living room! Staff is SUPER friendly!!!! A definite must-stop if youre in town!!
Great beer and wine selection. Live music on Friday nights. The owner, Chuck, is usually around and fun to chat with. All the servers are friendly and knowledgeable. Stop in for Thursday night trivia or play a board game upstairs.
Chuck owns Blackrock. He does such a great job of keeping great beer in his place. Super small place with huge personality. Great place to get a beer after work.
In another city I dont think I would rate this place 4 stars. There is only a few places to drink in Idaho falls and this is one of the better ones. They have a decent selection of bottled beer and they have tap take overs all the time. Im not a big wine drinker but they seem to have lots of it.
Awesome beer selection, great vibe. The owner Chuck is so welcoming and awesome to talk to. Will definitely be a required stop when I travel to IF.
What a great place! Love the inside and the unique beers and choices. The owner was absolutely sweet and helpful. Never been a bar person but this is my favorite place. Not your average bar its classy and a great environment.
Great new location! Very fun and cozy with upscale look. Lots of drink options for different tastes and the nightly entertainment is always on point. Video game night is seriously the best kept secret in town.
This place is perfect. Chuck works hard to keep great beers on tap and the laid back environment cannot be beat.
Great atmosphere! Friendly staff and a top notch selection of brews!
Ive enjoyed a few beers here during the last few months. The atmosphere is really nice and my wife and I were treated well. The beer selection is good though there are more IPAs than Id like. But there are enough other choices for those who dont like IPAs.
Good selection of beer and wine, friendly staff.
Owner is awesome. Great beers. Good live music
Great staff, very laid back atmosphere amazing selection of wine and beer. Cant wait for them to get their small food menu going!
This is a great place to meet friends for a beer. Friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. Interesting placement of mirror above the toilet.😂 Must imorove aim We will go back.
Very nice atmosphere, clean and classy. A large assortment of local brews on tap which is nice. If youre not looking for a crazy place with rowdy young people this is a nice place to come and just relax and have a few brews or wine with freinds.
Better even than Cheers - everybody knows your name and there are no strangers. Thanks, Chuck!
Easly one of my favorite bars in town and the staff is so easy going and knowledge able about beer
I love Will and Natalie and thats all your need
Down to earth lovely people. Comfort at its finest. The best staff in town.Please know...this place has a place for you.😉
Their food is so good, great service and beautiful atmosphere.
The latest beer and best wine you could want! Friendly, amicable crowd where conversation is easy.
Went to visit my brother in law and we stopped in there. The person behind counter was super knowledgeable on what they had and was way nice.
Great place to go for a drink after work. They often have live music and the beer and wine selection is excellent.
Great wine nice place but the woman bartender was very drunk by 7:30!!!! Hopefully if I try to go back she will not be working there anymore..she ruined our date night it was very uncomfortable and waited for another person to check us out because we didnt want her to close our tab!
Great people with a great atmosphere. If you want a gtreat selection of beer in a cozy downtown spot, this is your place!
Its a great place for whatever your palate is up for tasty
Good variety of beers on tap. Knowledgeable and friendly owner!!! Definitely going back.
Friendly service, cozy atmosphere. Heard some amazing blues music featuring local talent
Good vibe, decent beer selection. Definitely pair this place with Marcellas Wine though if your into craft brews.
For Idaho Falls, this place is a pretty good wine bar. Awesome selection of beers and wine. They even have my favorite San Diego Microbrew, Ballast Point Sculpin IPA. Although they are not really micro anymore.If you are looking for a quite place to drink, try this place.
Amazing Oasis in Idaho. And the host is the sweetest thing on Earth, helpful, giving, attentive.
Should be zero stars...Not a fan of this place, service is often slow, understaffed and the owner was rude to us. There are plenty of other places in IF to choose from, this place is not one worth your $$$. I would suggest Tap N Fill.
Chuck, the owner, is friendly and knowledgeable with a nice selection of local wine and beer.
Good atmosphere and pricing and impeccable customer service
Inviting, wide selections of wine and craft beers companyed with friendly knowledgeable staff & owner.
Loved the live music!
Good, but Tap and Fill has a better beer list, friendlier bartenders, and a warmer temperature. I was freezing the whole time at Black Rock.
Excellent selection of beer and wine. Great owner.
Good beer/wine selection and friendly staff!
Awesome selection of beer good food and friendly people
Great people and atmosphere!
Cool place. Great selection.
Great selection, great atmosphere, and the best people.
GET. THE. SLIDERS. Great beer selection and the laid back atmoshpere we were looking for
Stopped in to check the place out, and absolutely love it!! Friendly people and great prices!!!
I used to love the Blackrock, but it has been going downhill ever since Ryan left. We have had poor service on multiple occasions, once we were even told they would not make us a cheese plate because the kitchen was too dirty...We, for the most part, ignored the poor service and continued going as we loved the atmosphere and the selection of alcohol. After our last experience at the Blackrock we will not be going back, and we will make sure to spread our displeasure. It is somewhat understandable when an establishment has poor service (e.g., poor pay, inexperienced work staff, bad moods, etc.) and I have patience for that sort of thing. What I do not have patience for, is an owner who tries to swindle a customer out of money and when he gets politely called on it he treats the customer poorly. At first, it seemed like the mistake was made in earnest, but after the owners response to the mistakes being brought to light, it becomes quite obvious that he has no problem taking advantage of his customers. We will not be going back, and I encourage all others to spend their money at establishments where the owners will not take advantage (Marcellars, The Tap n Fill, Idaho Brewing Company) and treat you poorly.
NOT A BAR. love the atmosphere and the selection of wines and brews.
Great craft beer and wine selection, great atmosphere.
Great selection of beers and knowledgeable staff
Great rotating tap with friendly staff. Take a close look at the basalt bar surface...nice for geologists to stare at!
They sell pretty decent wine to specification
Best craft beer hang out in Idaho Falls.
Great bar and beer selection, awesome bartender.
Always a good time. 30 beers on tap and a large cooler section with bottled beers and wine.
Great hospitality and amazing selection of beverages!
A good amount of beer on tap
Never trust a place that closes 3 hours earlier than whats posted online....
Cozy place for a brew and hang with friends
Cozy, lots of beer and wine
Ok
Way overpriced
Yup
