Josh B.

It's worth a stop on your way through downtown Spokane. I like that Spokane has the Riverfront Park where there are many things to do and see and take photos of. It gives me a little vibe of the San Antonio Riverwalk but less festive. I will say that I expected this wagon to be gigantic, but it's not actually that big. It's big, don't get me know, just a little less big than I thought it'd be. It has a slide down the middle. So, if you've got kids, maybe take them for a little slide. Then go for a walk by the small falls or go on the carousel or use the Suction Goat near by (sounds naughty, but it's not that kind of suck-cion). Although, there are quick a few homeless people around those parts sooooooooooo...... Anyway, I can say I've been and it was moderately decent. The whole river front experience is more to my liking though.

The wagon was so fun! The slide was steep and fast for my 8 year old. She loved it. Thank you Spokane for a fun memory!

Some things are world record holders simply because no one cares to challenge them. This is one of those things.

Everyone knows the handle is a slide but a lot of people don't know the underside has monkey bars!

I grew up 100 miles north of Spokane in Pend Oreille county so I spent a lot of time in Spokane as…read morea youth. Spokane was the nearest "big city" so it was where to go for drive-in movies, record stores (remember those?), fast food restaurants, concerts and of course, cruising Riverside Drive (remember cruising?) and grabbing a burger at Dick's Hamburgers. Now as an adult when I visit I still love Spokane, but for mostly different reasons. Some nostalgic and some because Spokane is still a cool city. I visit once every couple of years. My octogenarian parents still live in Spokane as does one brother and one sister. Spokane boasts a lot of history. There is a lot of old architecture and brick. Lots and lots of brick! Riverside Park downtown is a beautiful Spokane destination as is Manito Park and Botanical Gardens. Beautiful and fun Coeur 'd Alene, Idaho is just a short drive away. If four full seasons is your thing, Spokane has them. Hot dry summers, cold, leaf-turning colors autumns, cold and snowy winters, rainy springs. I've said a lot of nice things about Spokane, so why not five stars? Hey, if I thought that Spokane was a 5-star city I'd still live there, right? By the way, Dick's Hamburgers is still slinging burgers after all these years. For some reason they tasted a lot better as a 17 year-old than do as a 52 year old!

Telling me to call someone else because you're too lazy to drive by and ensure the builder posted permits is shameful. Talking down to me and saying, "got it?" doesn't earn any respect in your community. Yes, Ron, I "got it" - you can do as little as possible, may be as rude as you like and Brown's administration will allow it. Disgusting.

Here's what my mom and I tried: ---LEMON POPPY SCONE: I didn't taste as strong of a lemon as I would have preferred. ---WILD BLUEBERRY SCONE: This tasted exactly as you'd expect it too. ---WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY SCONE: Not overly sweet, better than I expected it to taste! ---LONDON FOG SCONE: This was my favorite! Tastes exactly like the traditional earl grey that a london fog should have! ---PARADISE PEACH TEA: Smelled amazingly like peach and enjoyed this as well! ---JASMINE & FLOWERS TEA: Enjoyed this jasmine tea! "THE WHITE STUFF": They have a cream that complemented the scones perfectly. The scones are good on their own of course, but was fun to add it on for a few bites (can get addicting for sure haha). It's hard to describe the taste of the cream-light in texture and slightly sweet. Definitely worth trying! Loved how we got gratitude journals as part of this event! Definitely a great way to spread positiviTEA and reflect upon what you're grateful for.

The scones were nice and soft rather than hard and brittle, they paired lovely with the tea. My favorite scone was the white chocolate :)

We should've made a reservation because it was a Saturday night. They were super busy (1hr wait…read moretime) so we ordered takeout instead since we were staying close by. The staff was great and a manager even came out to meet us in the lobby before we finished placing the order to clarify one of our dietary restrictions/ requests due to an ingredient they couldn't remove from one item. In the end, all the food was AMAZING and we were actually bummed they're closed Sunday and Monday so we couldn't go back during this trip... but we will next time!

Friendly service wins my heart every time. - the butternut squash soup was AMAZING!! So creamy, buttery, flavorful, HOT. Perfection! - a good old fashioned! - save room for the dessert beignets!! Warm, melt in your mouth, light and airy. - was excited to see the portobello mushroom burger on the menu- flavorful and a tad messy. - the calamari has an Asian flair. Points for being different and delicious, but the calamari was small and you don't get very much. I liked the slaw. Lots of slaw, little calamari. Cons: The burgers were overcooked but still went down . The bottom bun was very overcooked...a bit too hard for our liking.

The area was very comfortable and well-designed, and the fire pits were absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to come back on a chillier evening. The drinks were creative, although most were a bit sweet for our tastes. For that reason, I was thankful to see that there was a respectable wine and beer list. I enjoyed a red blend from Barristers that was the perfect counter to the other sweet drinks that weren't holding my interest. My husband absolutely loved the spicy Terrace Sunset. I think he had two! I didn't try any of the (non-dessert) food, but I was pleased to see that there were vegan and vegetarian options. I did try the dessert - the "Rollo" chocolate/caramel cakes - and it was amazing. It was definitely shareable - I could only handle a few bites, but they were good bites indeed! All in all, it was a great place, and I'd consider bringing out of town guests here for the great, classy vibe.

The food is sub-par for this kind of experience!! Just give us $100 credit to order appetizers. $100 credit toward drinks isn't much cuz the drinks here are expensive. Overall, it was fun...but too expensive to do a 2nd time and the food wasn't good enough to use this idea a 2nd time for a client event as I did this night. The staff did a good job. Now that other restaurants, with a reputation for good food are doing the same...I would try them instead. Fun idea....too expensive. If the food were better....maybe.
