5 Best Restaurants in Spokane Valley, Washington You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Spokane Valley, Washington — a city where the pines lean in close and the Spokane River winds like a silver ribbon, where the hum of pickup trucks mingles with the laughter of families in leafy parks, and the scent of barbecue, pho, and fresh-baked bread drifts through neighborhoods stitched together by memory and hope. Here, the architecture is a patchwork: ranch homes and new builds, old barns and glassy storefronts, each telling the story of those who’ve called this valley home. It’s a place where the food scene is a living mosaic — Hmong, Mexican, Italian, and classic American, all woven together by the hands of dreamers and doers, old-timers and newcomers alike.

Spokane’s Timeworm goes goblin mode on new album E Pluribus Goblin

Spooky season might be in the rearview mirror, but for Spokane band Timeworm, goblin season seemingly never ends. For Timeworm, viewing the world through the lens of the mischievous and malicious little demon-like creatures from English folklore seems pretty fitting for our current times. And the group dives deep into that idea while sonically exploring the edges of psychedelic funk, alternative rock and more on its new sophomore album, E Pluribus Goblin.

Hit the Trail with Soph

Fall is the best time to hike – for me, anyway. Being a middle-aged marshmallow with the heat tolerance of said confection, I tend to crisp in the sun while sweating like I have to choose between bills and groceries at the same time. Besides the annoyance of woolly gnats getting stuck on your skin and hair like you’re riding a motorcycle with no helmet, autumn provides more temperate weather and showstopping foliage before winter’s hush falls over the forest. In celebration of the season, I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite local hiking spots that pair well with your favorite pumpkin spice beverage. If I’ve missed one you think should be on this list, you know how to get in touch (if you don’t, my email is at the end of this column).

The farm-to-fork kitchen will even smother your hash browns in gravy and onions at no extra charge.
