10.31.25: We drove the hour to Spokane to run an errand. Afterwards, I wanted to find a pie bakery…read moreto try other than Birdie's. I quickly did some research and found Rocket Bakery was just 5 mins away from where we were. We pulled into the tiny parking and luckily there was 1 spot left. When we walked in, it was more of a coffee shop than a bakery I had envisioned. However, they had a small area of baked goods and a glass window of cakes/pie and ready-made food. I didn't recall being greeted either. Vibe was kinda off, not the cool vibing coffee shop feel. After looking at everything, the only pie option they had was a Rhubarb Custard, which I went ahead and ordered a slice. I also got a slice of the Blueberry Cheesecake Tart, and a berry scone. My friend got a slice of the Lemon Tart and a chocolate chip cookie. The young employee helping us was really nice, but I think she felt overwhelmed by the line of people started to form. Towards the end of putting our order together, another employee came to help. I also felt we were kinda rushed out of there. So much so, that after we were handed our food, out the door, and almost to the car-- an employee came running out with a box in her hand. She forgot to give us one of our slices. The berry scone was pretty good. It was dense, moist, and cooked perfectly. I was excited to try the rhubarb custard pie, but unfortunately it fell short for me. The rhubarb wasn't tart at all, giving it a real subtle taste. Possibly could have used too much sugar to cut the tartness. The custard and crust part wasn't bad. I could taste the nutmeg and cinnamon and a hint of vanilla. The blueberry cheesecake tart had great flavor. It wasn't too cheesy nor sugary. Preferably, I wished it had a bit more blueberry topping. The crust was interesting--it was good and I think it had nuts, oatmeal, and coconut mixed into it. My friend said his lemon tart was really good but that the winner was the chocolate chip cookie. He said it was on the softer side and filled with mini sweet chocolate chips that he really enjoyed. For now, I'll continue my quest in search of yummy pies in CDA and Spokane.

I got a raspberry mocha, which is a baseline drink for me that I get at all new cafes. It was delicious! The coffee shot was prefect and it was sweet enough for me. Also got the berry scone, which has lemon frosting on it. DIVINE! I don't think I could try anything else; I'd want this scone every time I stop by. The tables are assorted in size but I never saw an employee in that area to wipe them down. It also was crazy warm in there. Even after taking my coat off I couldn't stay long in the heat. The employees were very nice and conversational. You can see why it's been around for so long.

Service - The barista was very helpful and patient as it was my first time at White Dog Coffee. She gave me a few suggestion and i went with the Waffle Chai drink and it was SO GOOD. The Meat Breakfast burritos was okay, I'd give it a 3/5, for being soggy on one side and the sausage wasn't very appetizing but the salsa on the side was good, I could have used two of them to drench my burrito. Overall I really loved the drink and it was so unique which is hard to come by these days. I will be coming back!

The portions are generous without being overwhelming, which makes it even more enjoyable. We also love the almond chicken and the lo-main noodles -- both are always delicious and consistently good.

The restaurant is always clean and well put together, which makes the whole experience even better. Great food, great portions, and a welcoming place we definitely recommend! Great job guys... :)

I ordered broccoli beef and a mango green tea with boba. I ordered take out. The ambiance was nice…read morein the restaurant, clean and spacious. The restaurant was busy on Thursday night. The broccoli beef was $18 before tax. The takeout order came with a light broth egg, pea soup and rice. The egg pea soup was good, light and fragrant. The rice was somehow bland and old. The broccoli beef was disappointing in every way! As the name implies, the dish should have beef and broccoli only. This dish came with everything, mushrooms, carrots, onions, beef and broccoli. The seasoning was bland and watered down, from the extra veggies. The portion for $18 and less broccoli and beef was depressing. The bowl was the same size as my small hand. The mango green tea was fair. I wasn't asked about my sugar preference. The tea was sweet, but still good. The boba was chewy and slightly sweet, super happy it wasn't tasteless and firm. I wouldn't come back for broccoli beef. I might come back to try something else. The prices were high for the quality and portions.

Management seems to be missing from the pasture, because the herd looks unhappy, untrained, and uninterested in customers. Most team members don't smile, don't ask for names, and avoid eye contact like it's a predator. Ordering coffee feels less like a friendly routine and more like wandering into a very quiet, very uncomfortable barn. Every once in a while, a kind cow appears and reminds me what Starbucks should feel like -- but that moment passes quickly. The rest of the time, the mood is gloomy, the energy is low, and even the customers stop smiling. Bad vibes spread faster than flies in summer. A Starbucks should be warm, welcoming, and human. This one feels joyless. Until leadership wakes up and brings some life back to the pasture, this cow will take her hooves elsewhere. Moo.

They have a drive thru and a very nice restroom as well!! Definitely stop by with your friends as there is ample parking and it's close enough to the freeway to pull over for a traffic break! New addition is the electric car charging ports right in front of the store! If you have an electric car this is the perfect place to stop and take a chill break to 'charge up' ha (both for human and car lol)!!!
