However as soon as we walked in my husband got yelled at by a blond girl behind the counter because his mask slipped down. He was pissed and wanted to leave but we had already driven there and waited in line. We ordered 1 bagel to split with the veggie cream cheese just to try and I'm glad we didn't waste anymore money. These were super crumbly and were under seasoned. They also tasted like a roll and not a bagel. Definitely not a NY or PA bagel. Also, its not a good business practice to yell at your customers and expect them to have a good experience. But then again, this was our experience, I'm sure yours will be different.

Solid choice for bagels in Spokane!…read more I got the Asiago bagel with Raspberry cream cheese and it was good! Service was solid and the menu is huge - vegetarian, high protein sandwich options and more. Smells incredible inside because the spot is an ice cream shop later in the day and they make waffle cones in house. Decent amount of indoor seating and more outside as well. Gets busy fast, so go early in the morning to get the best selection and faster service! I'd definitely recommend if you're in need of a bagel or bagel sandwich!

They offered up helping with any questions and weren't bothered when I did ask. The store was also kept very clean. I opted for the Asiago Bagel with strawberry cream cheese schmear. It was excellent. Often time the Asiago only makes it to the cap of the bagel. This one held the flavor in top and bottom. It was also fresh, which was noticeable. Pricing is about what you would expect in WA state, and in particular, this upscale neighborhood. Well worth the price in quality though.

I was in Spokane for a conference and stumbled upon Wooden City because it is on the Spokane "where…read moreto eat list". A deeper dive showed a good possibility of gluten free options, so I made the reservation. I was in town on a Monday, just after Hoopfest, but they were the kind of busy where a reservation should always be made I think. My table was ready and I sat in the bar at a high top table. I think I would choose "in the dining room" next time. My server was friendly and quick, as well as knowledgeable about gluten free options. There is even a separate menu that lays out the dishes that are already gf or could be made to be. Love this, always. I ordered the summer salad to start. It was amazing. Flavorful. Fresh. The mint wasn't overpowering, the watermelon was the perfect ripeness. It was so good. I would try to recreate it but it was done so well, and I know I couldn't hit that dressing in the same way. Get it while you can. For my main, I had ordered the scallops in my brain before I even arrived. The risotto was a little soupy, but the flavor was SO good. The corn came through and it went so well with the scallops. The tomatoes were quite over salted, but as long as I didn't eat them alone, it was alright. The scallops were perfectly cooked and I felt like the portion was appropriately sized for the dish, even though there were only 4. My server really made the experience enjoyable. The atmosphere was busy but the booths looked like they could be cozy. The prices were on the higher end. But for a special occasion, it was worth it. I really wished I'd had room for dessert. I will surely go back the next time I am in town.

I bought two Margherita pizza's. One from Wooden City and one from Barrelhouse so I could do a…read moretaste test after not being able to decide which one to go to. First off, I was looking for an authentic Napoli style pizza. Like a fresh red sauce from crushed tomatoes and a beautiful chewy, pillowy, yet charred crust. The verdict: Wooden City is the winner! The crust is really really good! The sauce is a bright beautiful tomato sauce that looks like crushed tomatoes however, the sauce was lacking flavor:( I would give this pizza a 3 out of 5. The crust is a 4 1/2 star but the sauce lacking in flavor..brought it down to a 3. Cute place, very pleasant friendly staff..way friendlier vibe than Barrelhouse. The boys are easy on the eyes for younger girls on the hunt! Lmao Don't bother with the Margherita pizza at Barrelhouse. Thank God I only paid $12 for the Margherita Monday deal of half off! The crust was horrible! Dominos has better crust! Costco pizza's had a better crust! The sauce has flavor, very garlicky like fresh garlicky but more of a paste with a load of oregano in it. The cheese didn't have that fresh taste I was hoping for. However, they are known for their Detroit pizza's which I haven't tried but if it's the same sauce, I would pass. Not saying it's bad but it's just not MY cup of tea whether it's for a Detroit style or any pizza. Now you don't have to guess which place has a better Margherita pizza. I wouldn't even pay $12 at Barrelhouse for a marg. Would I come back, yes, if I were in my 20's.. lol but since I'm older and the food is more important to me...no...:/ But hey, maybe their other pizza's are better! I can see a salty pepperoni being good!

Bagels are not made in house but rather a Baker in the local area. Very Brady similar to a store-bought bakery bagel. No cream cheese on the breakfast sandwich unless you pay extra.

My experience with bagels has mostly been homemade bagels from the east coast or basic baked bagels from a grocery store on the west coast - which I now know is a WIDE variance on the bagel spectrum. Being busy in my line of work, I order from Bagel Authority about once a week and the bagels always arrive warm (as they are wrapped in foil) and usually ahead of schedule. Be warned, however, the herbs are so fresh they almost taste spicy - my favorite. I've fully become addicted to BA and might be the founder of Bagel Authority Anonymous... although I'm not so anonymous now with a public review. Anyway, stellar bagels.

Things I've tried: BBQ chicken sandwich- TINY TINY TINY seriously guys, this thing is all bread with a scant layer of meat and toppings. Super disappointed because I paid almost $8 for it. Bagels - good for what they are. Not the most flavorful honestly. Bagel sandwich: save yourself the money and disappointment and go upstairs to get the same quality :/ for a buffet price ... Avocado toast : well it's really not even that, nor is it ever toasted fully. The top is brown but the rest of the bagel is soft. They should also just not call it this because it's more of a bagel with avocado smear, so thin you can see the bagel underneath. Just a meh place overall.

Indaba didn't just check the boxes, it made me wonder why every coffee shop doesn't operate this way. Walk in and the space stops you. Exposed brick, warm wood, art on every wall, and a ceiling that opens up the whole room. The seating runs from cozy couches to high tops to proper tables. no bad seat in the house. Outlets everywhere. A conference room available to rent. Whoever designed this place actually thought about the people using it. The staff made us feel welcome without trying too hard. That's a skill. We ordered hot and iced mochas and both were dialed in. My wife went bacon avocado toast, creamy avocado against crispy bacon, exactly right. I had the sunbutter banana toast and almost ordered a second one. We grabbed an apple fritter to go. It didn't survive the drive. The background music hits just right, easy listening layered under the natural buzz of a full, happy room. Prices are exactly what you'd expect to pay for coffee done well. Before you leave, browse the retail wall. Solid selection of beans to take home, plus some genuinely cute goods worth picking up. This place has real soul. You'll feel it.
