These are the best Donuts in the Treasure Valley! Try the maple bars (some come with bacon on top) or the classic glazed. If you are heading downtown, there is a location on

Vincenzo is arguably the best Italian food in Boise. The dishes are authentic, as the owner and chef is an Italian immigrant who ran a restaurant in Italy for years. You can't go wrong ordering anything from the menu here!

Jo Momma's is seriously our favorite breakfast spot ever! They serve huge portions of delicious food. We usually order the omelettes with pancakes, but you really will enjoy whatever they have on the menu. They are only open for breakfast, though, so get there early. You can call ahead to get on the list so you don't have to wait.

Crumbl has a wide variety of delicious (and huge) cookies that you will definitely enjoy. Because they rotate their flavors every week, I don't have a recommendation other than the sugar cookie. All of them are amazing though!

We recommend the Caribbean French Toast here, but everything is so good! This little breakfast restaurant is a favorite here in Boise, as there are several other locations throughout the valley. It is a little pricey, but worth it if you like a good breakfast!

Parks & Nature
The Boise Greenbelt is a hiking/biking trail that stretches from Eagle all the way to downtown Boise and runs alongside the Boise River. We love to take our bikes and enjoy the river and scenery before we grab a bite downtown. We recommend starting your ride at Veteran's Memorial Park, however, if you have the time and energy, you can ride from the house.
