This is definitely worth a repeat! Great portions and tasty as all get out! I had the train wreck and a caramel cream Italian soda, extremely happy I tried this place! Edited to add that I tried a different sandwich today and it did not disappoint! Ham and Swiss on sourdough... Delicious doesn't explain how amazing it was, and it was huge! Looking forward to giving another one a try next time!

😋 BoxCar Bistro!!!! We were looking for breakfast food and the grilled cheese 🥪 & breakfast 🍳 options drove us to drive by. Great place for breakfast or a tasty sandwich made fresh. The owners Jen is super friendly and was so wonderful to explain the options. Which there are many. She has 4-5 cheeses 🧀 plus the normal meal/deli choices and several breads plus a croissant (for $1 more). She is hardworking and tried to get our custom order of 4 out in 15-20min (it’s NOT a drive through so if you are pressed for time it’s not going to work)... It did give us a moment to sit and relax (tenet and chairs are adjacent to the food truck). She has 6-7 sauces available and great flavors to choose from. Breakfast can run you about $6-8 and sandwiches are more around $14-17 (please see picture of men

Boxcar Bistro is THE PLACE TO EAT when you find yourself in the Boise/Nampa area! The sandwiches we enjoyed today were SO FLAVORFUL and far superior to sandwiches you'll find anywhere else! Every ingredient was top-notch, from the meats and cheese to the bread. We got there just before the lunch rush. People love this place! I'm so glad we stopped for lunch at the Boxcar Bistro in Nampa, Idaho today. After the lunch rush, we were able to talk to the owner, Jenn Thacker. This business has grown from a dream in 2018 to a successful dream-come-true today! Way to go Jenn! Please excuse the red hue of the sandwich photos. I forgot that sitting under a red umbrella would do that to my photos. Oops! Look at that stack of deliciousness on the Boxcar Bistro's signature rye bread though! Yum! I'

5 Stars – BoxCar Bistro's Monte Cristo is a Must-Try! If you haven't had the Monte Cristo at BoxCar Bistro in Nampa, you're seriously missing out. This sandwich is a masterpiece—baked chicken and deli ham layered with Swiss cheese, tangy bistro sauce, and stone-ground mustard, all nestled between slices of white bread. Then, it's dipped in French toast batter, cooked to golden perfection, dusted with powdered sugar, and served with a side of seedless berry spread. The combination of savory and sweet is absolutely divine .

Delicious. I'm so glad I took photos before I started or there would be none. Great customer service. Delicious sandwiches. This one is the train wreck hold the peppers. What was absolutely amazing was the chips, thick and delicious. About half way through I decided to try dipping one in the adjus. Oh my. Delicious. I may have a hard time trying others. They have extended hours Friday and Saturday till 8. Most food trucks in Nampa or only open a short time time midday. Go give Boxcar Bistro a try.
