Exploring Historic Old Town Pocatello

Old Town Pocatello is full of history and charm, and in January, it has a cozy, timeless feel. Stroll the brick-lined streets and check out local shops, art galleries, and cafés. Don’t miss the murals tucked between buildings that add color to the winter landscape.
For history buffs, visit the Bannock County Historical Museum or admire the architecture of landmarks like the Standrod Mansion. Even just window-shopping and snapping photos makes for a fun afternoon.
Old Town also has great dining spots. Try The Union Taproom for craft beer, El Herradero for hearty Mexican food, or The Pressbox for burgers and wings. On chilly nights, Old Town feels alive with twinkling lights and welcoming storefronts.
This is the perfect January weekend outing — close to home, full of culture, and a reminder of Pocatello’s unique character.
