Basque Block

Great food, grear service, great prices

Love learning about new cultures. Wish the shios and museum were open on Sundays

One of the last quiet places in Boise, will see how it goes with the Center and housing and all going up and all.

Part of the charm of Boise is in its small, unassuming features like this one. Great access to the city's history. And some delicious food.

The Basque Block is one of Idaho’s unique cultural blocks of a living ethnic neighborhood- Basque. It is comprised of two boarding houses -­ the Cyrus Jacobs-Uberruaga house, and the Anduiza.nnThe block has its unique indoor frontón court, the Basque Center, the Basque Museum and Cultural Center, Bar Gernika, Leku Ona restaurant, and the Basque Market. The cultural food is one of the main attractions here.nnThere is Basque History Mural completed by Noel Weber and The Letterheads in 2000, located on the Basque Block off of Capitol Blvd. One of the original Letterhead Members, Bill Hueg, hand painted a reproduction of the work which was translated into this new digital version displayed on the west-facing wall of the 104-year-old Anduiza Fronton building.nnThe Museum Hours are Tuesday – Friday: 10am to 5pm and Saturday: 11am to 4pm. It is closed on Sunday, Monday, and Holidays.nnIf you are in Boise or visiting Boise and you are a history geek, I would say definitely check out this place and also try the food here to taste a different ethnic food.
