New Downtown Boise Hangout, Western Proper, Offers An Elevated Day to Night Experience Unlike Anything Else in Idaho

Last updated June 29, 2021 by Totally Boise

A second location of the local Boise brewery Western Collective, Western Proper is an all-encompassing space for entertainment. Bringing together food, parlour games, music, coffee, spirits, and of course, beer, Western Proper is an entirely new world-class experience for residents of the Treasure Valley and visiting tourists.

The 10,500 sq. ft. space takes guests to a level of experience and excitement that you won't find elsewhere in Downtown Boise. Western Proper serves upscale American fare that will cater to different lifestyles and palettes along with mini-bowling and parlour games

"We wanted Western Proper to be approachable yet elevated," said co-founder Melissa Levick.

While touring Western Proper, Melissa mentioned that the intention of Western Proper is to be a place where everyone feels welcome — date nights, casual hangouts, game nights, and brunches, to name a few.

Western Proper has indoor dining for up to 300 people, an outdoor patio that seats 50 people, communal dining options, two bars, lounge areas, and fourteen 75" inch TVs for sports enthusiasts.

As with their first location, every detail of Western Proper is intentional - from the multiple wallpaper prints designed by independent artists to the curated vintage furniture selection, to the hand-crafted cocktails and meticulously detailed food menus. When Western Collective opened three years ago, it quickly became known for its Western chic environment, and you can expect nothing less at Western Proper.

Creating nothing short of excellence, Western Proper's elevated food (coming soon), drinks, and striking Deco Western decor not only bring patrons in, but it entices them to stay.
