The site of the 1974 World's Fair is now home to a large park, complete with historic carousel, clock tower, playgrounds, ice skating ribbon, and much more!
We spend too much time (and money!) here. A mix of national chains and local shops/restaurants to enjoy.
This addition to downtown has been open for a little under a year and is a fun place to grab a drink and some food! Ask Kyle about how he lost his golf ball by trying to force a hole-in-one...
Winery in Spokane that has a lot of bold, robust flavors!
If you get the Blackberry Apricot Sour (Kyle's favorite), you won't be disappointed! A great brewery to check out while you're in town with lots of rotating taps of beer, cider, kombucha, and a great food menu.
A store full of fun, eclectic, and local gifts and collectibles. Get a coffee from the cafe and stroll through the store to figure out what to spend your money on (we highly recommend a Chris Bovey print and a Paddy Wax soy candle).
If you'd like to pretend like you're "so PNW", check out our closest state park and the picturesque "Bowl and Pitcher". A wooden suspension bridge takes you across the river and to the trails. The spot where Nigel met his first deer, first snake, and first horse (he survived all three, thankfully). Purchase a one day park pass here: https://store.discoverpass.wa.gov/
Google "Indaba Coffee Spokane", and you'll see that the quality of this shop has spawned several offspring! We love the Howard location for its decor and proximity to the park.
The reason why we're here! Our place of work and (almost) alma mater. It's only about a 20 minute walk along the river away from downtown. Check out St. Al's and some of the iconic Jesuit statues and artwork around campus.
This Montana-based company opened up a store in downtown Spokane last year. The standard flavors are delicious (Wustner Honey & Cinnamon, anyone?) an the rotating flavors always have a fun twist to them.
Two words: Tart. Citron. But really, everything at this coffee shop and patisserie is delicious.
Good sit-down restaurant with a wide range of flavors and dishes. You're not going to regret getting a pretzel with some cheese sauce!
