ABOUT PAPA JOES

Papa Joes is located at 1301 S Capitol Blvd just down the hill from the train depot. Our building has housed a number of different businesses, the most famous of which, besides Papa Joe’s, was Dixons Sea Foods. It is a beautiful eclectic building which we have been working to restore. The patio offers a great view of the foot hills, BSU campus. We enjoy sitting outside in the early morning with a cup of espresso and watch the world go by. Evening patio dining has a festive charm. We offer a variety of dining rooms, one by the stone fire place, one in our parlor, as well our living room, a private den for 10 or fewer with an HD TV complete with coffee table and leather sofa.

Papa Joes was established over twenty years ago and has become a Boise tradition for Sicilian style pizzas, home style pastas, Italian wine, cold regional beer and great prices.

We love hearing stories from our customers about how Papa Joes was their college hangout; now those customers are all grown up, and Papa Joes has grown with them. We hope you take a moment to look through our web-site to see that we have become so much more than a Pizzeria.

In the fall of 2006 we restored the north wing of the restaurant and brought Papa’s Cup of Joe to life; our representation of a classic Northern Italian, espresso/coffee shop and wine nook. We have also added a meeting/banquet room; great for parties up to 20 people.

If you’re looking for the perfect place to watch the big game we have the perfect spot for you: Papa’s living room, furnished complete with 3 couches, a coffee table and a 42” High Definition Plasma T.V.

We have also added an entirely new tradition to Papa Joe’s; Sunday breakfast. Every Sunday 8am to noon we open for Breakfast…ITALIAN STYLE!

So come on down and meet the family.  We are dedicated to bringing the highest quality ingredients together with our family recipes to delight your taste buds!

TIM’S STORY

Tim’s Cascade Style Potato Chips began in 1986 with Tim Kennedy and his family in a makeshift 15,000 square foot facility in Auburn, Washington. With primarily used equipment, they began by hand stirring with special rakes, small batches of thick sliced potatoes in square shaped kettles, spiced by hand and packaged in Tim’s signature red and white striped bag. Then Tim himself went out to local convenience stores and gave them samples to try. It wasn’t long before he had developed a cult like following of fans anxious to find out what flavor Tim was coming up with next.

In 1988, Tim’s was named “the best potato chip in Seattle.” Since then, Tim’s has continued to be recognized with top taste awards from Esquire Magazine and The American Culinary Institute. The company still continues to receive fan mail from people all over the world.

Tim’s has not only been recognized for great taste. The Association of Washington Business honored Tim’s in 2003 & 2004 for outstanding workplace practices, which included an onsite English as a Second Language program and we are proud to have been selected by the Washington CEO Magazine as one of “Washington’s Best 100 Companies to Work For” in 2008.

In addition, the company has won several Environmental Excellence Awards, including water conservation, packaging reduction and a ten year continuing Environmental Commitment Award.

Today, our product line consists of Tim’s Cascade Style Potato Chips, Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips and Onion Rings and Erin’s All Natural Popcorn. Tim’s snacks are produced at our facility in Algona, Washington by a close knit, diverse workforce of more than 85 employees who take immense pride in making the unique, kettle style chips and quality snacks Tim’s is known for.

Our distribution area expands over 11 western states, Hawaii, Alaska, Canada and export markets of Japan, Taiwan and South Korea. Here’s where to find us. » WWW.TIMSCHIPS.COM
