Kootenai River Brewing Company anchors the live music scene in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, offering one of North Idaho’s most scenic performance spaces. The venue’s signature taproom combines craft brewing traditions with regular live entertainment.
The performance area benefits from the building’s architectural features – high ceilings and wood elements create natural warmth for acoustic music, while large windows showcase stunning Kootenai River views. The open floor plan ensures music reaches every corner while maintaining comfortable conversation levels.
Audiences can experience performances from multiple vantage points. The main taproom offers traditional seating and bar spots, while the riverside patio provides an outdoor option during warmer months. The space transitions smoothly between dining and live music settings, equally suited to solo performers, duos, and small bands.
The venue’s craft beer selection and wood-fired pizzas enhance the listening experience, making it a favorite stop for both local music fans and touring artists. This combination of quality sound, river views, and local flavors creates the quintessential North Idaho taproom atmosphere.
