Where Victor nightlife rocks! Great
sandwiches and beers served by bartenders that know how to have
fun! Grab a Chicago style hot dog or Sheboygan Brat Sandwich with
a Pilsner Urquel maybe even some fine goat cheese with Roasted
Garlic and a glass of Local Idaho wine
The Timberline Bar and Cafe-787-2639
This bar has live music most nights in the summer and
long weekends in the winter. The music is mostly Country as the
clientele tends more toward local rednecks and construction types.
The food is mostly inexpensive bar finger foods and Burgers. Pool
tables and a dance floor with plenty of space makes this the more
desirable of the bars serving liquor. Smoky but they broke down
and bought a smoke eater that helps a little.
The Knotty Pine-787-2866
This bar has live music sporadically and expensively
and is geared toward younger gorpy ski-urchin types.(Ska-Reggae
and alternative music rules here). The bathrooms are dirty and
you can't get a drink due to overcrowding on concert nights. Cozy
log cabin atmosphere when the rowdies aren't there, food tends
toward basic steak and burgers with slow and inconsistent service.
The only other bar in the valley with hard liquor. Be ready for
clouds of cigarette smoke.
Pierre's Play House-787-2249
Caters heavily to Mormons and old people. Fried chicken
served outdoors on picnic tables preceeds a corny but cute melodrama.
Open Wed-Sat in the summer.
Driggs
Not exactly the nightlife central but there are some
things to do.
The Spud Theatre-354-2727
The highlight of summer for many in the valley. A real
old-fashioned Drive-in theatre where locals go for juicy Gladys
burgers and malts. The kids like it for mateing, beer-drinking
and to escape their parents. Just like Drive-ins have always been.
They even have a website at http://www.spuddrivein.com/
The Royal Wolf-354-8365
A beer and wine bar (all that's available in Driggs
at this time) that has an open bar area, a pool table and an outdoor
patio. Some of the better food Driggs has to offer although still
basically burgers and sandwiches. Service is hit or miss depending
on whether the barmaids boyfriend is at the bar or not.
O'Rourke's-354-8115
The main Redneck Beer wine and Sport's bar in the valley.
Always inhabited by cheap local rednecks whining about the price
of the cheap beer and coffee and badgering the waitresses for
freebies. TV's and idiots provide the entertainment. Most of the
food served here could be prepared without the use of a knife.
(Read Sysco frozen prepared items and pizza) The key words here
are cheap and kids. Lots of out of control little rednecks-in-training
to collide with.
Tetonia
Dave's Pub-456-2789
A pure Tetonia locals place. A drop
when in the neighborhood place. Full Bar and a pool table.
Ask for robin she's the best!
Swan Valley
Saddlesore Saloon-483-2510
One of the best bars in the area. Our
favorite. Great friendly people. Not much going on though. Swan
Valley can be pretty quiet. Great for a cocktail or beer after
fishing the South Fork of the Snake or returning from an Idaho
Falls shopping trip. Good sandwiches, Prime Rib on Friday's Pool
tables, pinball machines and cute and quiet rental cabins and
rooms.
