The Grain Shed

OMG. I tried the oat sandwich bread and the red wheat bread — both were amazing. But the absolute star of the show (besides the fantastic service) was the kouign amann. So many bakeries miss the mark with this pastry — it’s often too greasy or too buttery — but this one was perfect. Hands down the best I’ve ever had. Also want to shout out the woman working the counter this morning (around 9am) — it was my first visit and she took the time to explain all the breads and treats, which made the whole experience even better. I also got the avocado toast (I forget exactly what spread was under it, but it had a spicy kick and was incredible). I wish I could have stayed longer. What a gem!

A must when you're in Spokane! Great food--never had something I didn't like or at least appreciate. I have a gluten sensitivity/allergy and it RARELY acts up here. Their bread is phenomenal, so fresh. Faves: Nelson cookie, chocolate croissant, any loaf of bread, avocado toast, turkey on turkey sandwhich.

We have been coming regularly for the last 6 years. Delicious food, most things are very clean. They use fresh milled flour, which has a lot of health benefits. They use butter in their patries and no PUFAs or seedoils, very clean. Great price for the quality. The service depends on who serves you. Some are super nice and friendly, other are quite rude.

Today was our first visit to the Grain Shed in the Perry District and I will say the Roasted Turkey Sammy was the best ever!! Fresh bread and fresh ingredients!! The spicy slaw and herb mayo just added so much flavor!! The Helles Lager was exceptionally refreshing and good!! And Toby... what a friendly guy!! And the entire staff was so personable!! Thank you all for the delicious treat and we'll definitely be back. And we can't wait for their restaurant to open in Liberty Lake!!

All the good and love in the world is here in the people, the atmosphere, and the food. Pictured: savory danish with cucumber, tomato, labneh, and probably some magic.

Alright, so here’s the deal. I get the granola here all the time. Like, it’s become a thing. My partner and I wake up, eat it together before walking the dogs, and I swear it’s one of those small, perfect morning rituals that makes life feel good. I don’t know what they put in it, maybe love, maybe magic, but it’s seriously the best granola I’ve ever had. Crunchy, balanced, not too sweet, not too hipster. Just right. Then there’s the veggie sandwich. I think they call it the OG or something like that. It’s ridiculous how good it is. I’ve actually tried to recreate it at home, which went terribly, and I gave up halfway through. And it’s not even like I need to save money doing it myself. The price here is kind of genius. It’s that rare combination where you’re like, “Yeah, that’s worth it.” You feel good spending money here because you can tell it’s going to people who care. Now let’s talk about the staff. What’s up with these people? Where do they find them? Everyone’s so nice and happy it almost feels suspicious. They’ve either discovered the secret to human joy or they’re getting paid better than anyone else in the service industry. Either way, it’s working. The place has this warm, family vibe where everyone seems genuinely happy to be there, which, let’s be honest, is rare these days. On weekends, you sometimes see kids running around helping out, and I’m just assuming they’re the owners’ kids. Otherwise, there’s a whole child labor situation happening, kidding obviously. But really, it adds to the charm. It feels like a real community space where everyone pitches in. And let’s not forget pizza night. Pizza night has saved my life more than once. It’s one of those things you look forward to after a long week. You walk in, you see familiar faces, smell that wood-fired magic, and suddenly the world makes sense again. All in all, Grand grain Shed is one of those rare places that just feels good. The food’s incredible, the energy is right, and the people are real. It’s the kind of place you brag to your friends about but also secretly don’t want to get too popular because you still want a seat. Seriously, five stars, maybe six if they ever start selling that granola by the bucket.

Walk in mid morning to 8-9 seniors playing excellent Dixieland jazz! Great pastry, lovely and creative breads. Nifty menu items. The staff is very happy and have fun working together!

They have bread! Daily and special selection by day of the week. Avocado toast was good, should have had them put an egg on it 🤔. Ham and Swiss croissant was great. Bought some bread and muhumara 😍

It sounds dramatic, but I actually teared up while eating here. It wasn't just the food, it was the summation of everything it represented in a world that feels a bit upside down these days. The Grain Shed embodies intentional food made with locally sourced ingredients and crafted by hands that clearly care. The service was wonderful -- the person at the register walked us through the menu and took the time to connect. The atmosphere sealed it: live music from a husband-and-wife duo on guitar and banjo, a mix of ages enjoying the space, and walls filled with art and music references. As I sat there with a hot cup of drip coffee, the combination of it all genuinely moved me -- light, nourishment, intention, community. We had the breakfast sandwich and the bread flight, served with butter, jam, a red pepper spread, and schug, bright, balanced, and delicious. I rarely eat gluten because it doesn't make me feel great, but this was absolutely worth the "cheat." I loved every bit of it.

Love the variety of delicious treasures Preorder for the holidays Always a key food that I like to serve Bummed tho cinnamon rolls have been sold out

I can't say enough good things about The Grain Shed! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for high-quality, delicious bread, bakery items, sandwiches, toast--you really can't go wrong. Some of our favorites are the artisan bread, turkey sandwich, OG biscuits, and breakfast biscuits. Everything tastes incredibly fresh. The manager was so friendly while working the register and even offered us some bakery samples--delicious brownie, chocolate chip cookie, and banana bread! While seating isn't abundant, there's more than enough for a cozy meal, and sometimes they even have live music. A true gem in Spokane--definitely worth a visit!

What an awesome lunch stop! Fresh baked breads and beer - how could we not? The sandwiches were huge and delicious. We had the corned beef special and also got their OG on focaccia. The beer was right on the other side of the room and had $10 flights (4 big pours). We tried their Field Trip (Pilsner) Murky Wood (Hazy IPA) the Acronyms DIPA and the Cranberry Pineapple Kombucha. All super refreshing, not crazy bitter, perfect for a warm day. Lunch was so good we got some of their marinated peppers, olives and pate and their pink peppercorn and walnut bread to go. The staff was super helpful, answering all our questions and making great recommendations. Glad we made the stop!

Farm to Table that grows their own wheat, mills it in house and bakes their own bread. Knead I say more? Ambiance: 8/10 rustic, authentic, spacious with nice outdoor seating. Service: 11/10 (not a typo) Toby welcomed me back to the kitchen to talk with Josh about tips and tricks on baking. We talked for 30 minutes all while he, Ben & Toby were working hard prepping pizza dough, and a bunch of sourdough loaves. They were incredibly welcoming, friendly & helpful despite my flurry of questions. I was blown away by their hospitality and willingness to share the tricks of the trade from the masters themselves. So grateful for their time, patience and help. Food: 9/10 Bread: 10/10 just so fresh and flavorful, perfect chew. So good. 8.5/10 Turkey sandwich: incredibly flavorful and the bread was spot on. The chew, the flavor, it was just delicious. Nice touch with the jalapeños. Focaccia: 8/10 think vegetarian focaccia banh mi. Super delicious. The focaccia was so fresh, airy and moist. The ingredients were fresh and quality. The only thing I would want more of was a bit more variety of sandwiches on the menu. I believe based on the quality of the food they are pushing out that they've got some really awesome recipes in their back pocket. I will 100% be back every time I pass through Spokane.

Fantastic bread! We were looking for a good rye. We got a WONDERFUL marble rye! It must have been even better than Seinfeld's mom's. Friendly service. Rustic ambiance. Can't wait to get back!

Always enjoy the pastries and bread at The Grain Shed. Service is also excellent. I appreciate that they grow their own grains. Coffee needs a little work.

Fun spot within the Perry District. The biscuit and gravy was good (the biscuit definitely stood out over the gravy) and the croissant was perfect. Looking forward to coming back on a Monday night for Pizza night and trying some of the other bakery items.

Heard about this place within the first week I moved to Spokane, but didn't get to visit until recently. I love the concept of a bakery/pastry shop in the day time and brewery at night. It's located in a neighborhood, so wasn't too noisy and parking is easy to find. It was pretty lively when I went on a weekday afternoon and it had a cozy ambiance. Staff was super knowledgeable about their food . Love the boreka which was soooo warm and flaky and buttery. Would honestly go back just to have it again! It's massive, so not really a meal and not really a snack. Would love to try their other pastries too. Definitely recommend The Grain Shed.

This place is hopping on a Sunday morning and carries an incredibly varied selection of breads baked from a number of different grains grown and ground by the owners. My breakfast sandwich was delicious but it was the oat loaf I ate in hunks while driving home that blew me away. Fantastic and unique spot -- I just wish they served espresso in addition to drip. They also have a wonderful courtyard area in back -- which is a laid back spot to eat your breakfast and enjoy your grains.

This place nails it in every aspect-the food, the service, the ambiance- love everything about it. Happened to find it on a trip to Spokane a few weeks ago and when we ended up back here again, I knew this is where I had to go for breakfast-both days! Breakfast sandwiches are amazing and I always had to take a pastry to go as well. I'm particular about my pastry choices and these exceeded my expectations. Love, love love the bear claw with chocolate tahini inside. Can't wait to come back next time we're in town!

Awesome staff, happy to tell you about the breads. Great selection of breads, which varies by day. Good coffee. We got a bread platter. What a great idea. The savory sauces were delicious. The jam was really good. Yumm! We got drip coffee which is refillable. Heck of a deal! And there was live music by rolin(?) Keys. Nice!

They have great chocolate croissants and are one of the few places in town that sell challah bread. I'll be coming back again!

Best turkey sandwich! A turkey sandwich that makes you long for a turkey sandwich! Turkey! It's not about the turkey, it's about the bread and the balance. Wet to dry in perfect harmony. Flavors like a Shen Yun dance troupe leaping across the floor of your mouth, minus the bizarre ideological aftertaste. Bread here is crazy good. Crazy expensive as well so clench your butt cheeks and hold on, but it's worth it. You'll come away with a tummy that thanks you for the fresh and wholesome ingredients. Service is ok. It's very hipstery which to me reads a bit aloof and condescending, but they can't help it and are well-meaning and generally friendly from what I've experienced.

Helpful employees! Best croissants in Spokane! Bread is great! Even found pate! Worth the drive if you don't live in the Perry neighborhood! Seriously authentic! Bread masters here! Love love love!

resh bread, fresh vegetables--what more could I want? The sandwiches here are absolutely out of this world, and the loaves of bread are not only delicious but super affordable. Even when it's busy, the staff is kind and caring, which makes the whole experience even better. If you're looking for great food and great service, The Grain Shed is the spot.

My daughter is obsessed with The Grain Shed. It gets crowded at times, but it's probably due to the food being so good.

Always fabulous place to meet up in the mornings. Keep up with their bread schedule. Worth it

The best bread in town with great variety of organic sourdough baked goods made from ancient organic grains grown locally. The service is great and they're so friendly and make you feel at home. They often have local musicians playing and it can be loud, but a great vibe. A great place for breakfast or lunch. Pricey, but not for the quality and well worth it.

The live music was really good and folksy, but the turkey sandwich was delish as well.

What a cute place! Stopped here for breakfast/lunch on my way to the airport. Sandwich was great! Bread was soooo good. Live music was a nice touch. Really enjoyed this cozy little spot.

I was so excited to come and try their sandwiches, however upon arrival I was told they didn't make sandwiches on the day we came. They were having pizza night, but we didn't want to wait for them to start making them. We needed up getting a pastry which was fine, I didn't find anything spectacular about it. Staff was friendly and welcoming.

Firstly, the esthetic of this place is just what I was looking for! I was happy to see all the varieties of baked goods! I decided on the bread & cheese flight. When it was brought to my table, the server literally set it down and walked away as I was trying to ask what the spreads were. After she walked away, I had some of the cheese and bread without knowing what was what. When another server came to bring my mom's food, I asked the 2nd server to please tell me what each of the spreads & cheeses are . I am so glad the 2nd server answered my question! The red one in the photo has ground up walnuts which I am allergic to. The deduction of stars is for the first server literally setting it down and walking away while I was in the process of asking questions. The bread was literally so good!!! The cheese was delicious! Honestly, if it wasn't for the interaction with the first server, this would have been a five star review!

Cute place in residential neighborhood. Very fresh ingredients. Main attraction seems to be the homemade bread. My son and I each got one of the sandwiches and both were great...bread was amazing! Menu is limited so may be hard for picky eaters...we loved it because the items were unique and fresh. We'll be back.

I can't tell you how the food is: that's because this business discriminates against the disabled so I didn't get to try the food. **Multiple** employees told (not asked, told) me to leave because I had my medical alert dog with me. When I answered by informing them she is a working service animal protected by the ADA, I was laughed and sneered at. (She is a Belgian Malinois trained for diabetic alert. She is absolutely a service dog, and she was not being at all disruptive; this is not a gray area.) Every employee - yes, as my dog and I stood there minding our business and bothering no one, **multiple** employees singled me out - recited the same script word for word at me, in the same nasty condescending tone, telling me that my disability and I were not welcome. Every employee recited the same discriminatory script, which makes me think the business purposely trains staff to target, bully, and harass disabled customers. I didn't need that kind of harassment in my life so we left. I have never before been so mistreated because of my disability and this business should be ashamed of themselves. They bullied and shamed me repeatedly, in violation of federal access law, for no reason whatsoever. Just absolutely appalling. I have filed a formal ADA complaint because of how I was treated. If you prefer businesses that don't discriminate against the disabled, however, The Shop is right up the street and is kind and welcoming to all. Including those with disabilities. They have wonderful baked goods and they don't discriminate. After the harassment we received at the Grain Shed, it was a relief that my friend and service animal and I were able to enjoy our morning free of bullying at the Shop. I suggest you go to the Shop not the Shed.

This is probably one of the top 5 bakeries I've ever been to. While they specialize in bread, they also have cookies, pizza, sandwiches, and a ton of local craft beer options. The store itself has a cool east vibe and the staff matches that with a smile. The person who helped us out was really nice and personable once we got to talking and the whole experience was really great I started with a Nelson cookie which had the perfect balance of salty, sweet, crunchy, chewy, creamy and I loved the unique blend of flavors. Best cookie I've ever had. She also packaged two loaves to go for me to travel home with. I got the culture club ciabatta and the purple Egyptian wheat which were both super fragrant and soft. They had a nice crunch crust and they held for days while I used them up. They both had the pleasant sourness associated with sourdough and a nice big crumb texture. The purple wheat was nutty and crunchy and really great with a peanut butter and jelly! We also got a lunchbox toast to go. The bread was thick cut, the jam was really sweet and tart and the overall toast had an awesome texture. This bakery is definitely on the pricey side, but the loaves are huge and so worth the cost!

What a great place. It was so warm and welcoming and the food was wonderful. We ordered the Grinder sandwich for $15.00 and it was delicious. It came toasted on focaccia bread with salami, ham, gouda cheese, cucumbers, radishes and dressed lettuce. I really appreciated the attention to detail with dressing the lettuce before adding it to the sandwich. Everything was made fresh in their ovens and had a beautiful presentation. They also offer free wifi, a bar and live music throughout the week. The only critique I have is it would be nice if they offered a side with their sandwich as $15.00 for just a sandwich does seem a little steep

Slam dunk for lunch. This is my second time eating here and I am just as impressed as the first time. I got the grinder, which is a non-traditional take on a grinder, but holy moly. It's on point. A little spicy, but a lovely heat. The bread is made in house and is simply amazing. Dark beer on tap. My go to! Milk stout was light in it's drinkability. Not my most favorite beer, but pairs nicely with the fantastic food. Family friendly. Service was great. It was PACKED, but the servers were very kind and friendly. We even caught the tail end of some great live music.

Second meal in two days. My husband loved his sandwich so much yesterday, he wanted to try another one today. Both we fabulous. They even had a salad for me.

We were only in town for a few days and decided we wanted to support the locals. Bakery made sandwiches seemed like just the thing. This place is well off the main drag. Unfortunately we arrived about an hour and 10 minutes before close only to be informed they were no longer serving sandwiches. I will say it smelled good, but don't come unless you call ahead.

Service was great, haven't had a chance to try my chocolate bobka bread, but the cookies were awesome. Parking was a little bit dicey due to snow and ice, but we made it in. Will go back for lunch.

Awesome breakfast sandwich! Baked goods look amazing but we were on our way to the airport so could not partake

Wow, wow, wow! I am obsessed with this spot and have to visit each time I visit Spokane. They offer such delicious breads and pastries. You can never go wrong ordering the breakfast sando, beet and feta toast, and avocado toast. I cannot get enough of their schug spread! I love that they also offer a good beer selection, as well as other non-alcoholic beverages. This is a mellow spot to grab a bite to eat. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is always so kind and patient- they are answer all questions and provide great recommendations.

What a great place. We loved their baked goods and want to go back for their beer some afternoon.

Great atmosphere, we came on a Saturday morning while there was live music. Biscuits and gravy were very good! Great food, great people. Small-ish space for how busy it can get, but the tables opened up quick while we were there.

Awesome food and coffee in a warm and inviting place. The bread is also outstanding. Thank you, Toby!

Delicious bread and cookies. Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu. Seems like a quiet place for breakfast or lunch. People were friendly.

Great for bread. We stopped to pick up bread and a pain au chocolat. SERVICE: 4.5. His advice was helpful in choosing a bread. BREAD: 5.0. The Egyptian Purple bread was excellent. PAIN AU CHOCOLAT: 2.0. One end was very good (4.0): flaky light crust. The other end was overcooked (0.5): deep brown, melted into a chewy mass.

We were just driving through town, looking for some lunch, and this place was a great find! The beer is superb, well balanced, plenty of malt, nice hop balance, distinct flavors for each style. (We had a set of tasters.) They put the spent grain in the bread, which is delicious. The sandwiches are great, full of lots of homemade ingredients. Our turkey sandwich was clearly freshly roasted turkey, not some packaged product with a lot of salt. And came with an interesting homemade coleslaw. Definitely worth a stop. The locals obviously know about it too, because the line was continuous. Staff were friendly, helpful, and efficient, kept that line moving.

This place has such a great vibe! I had a breakfast sandwich and it was amazing! I asked for no meat and they instantly asked if I wanted to replace it with something. That rarely happens anymore! They have fresh baked breads and treats. It's a must try!

I love the warm atmosphere and smell of fresh bread. Whenever I come to Spokane this is usually my first stop. Love their sandwiches, good service and local feel.

Fantastic bread!! Must stop when we visit Spokane. Great sandwiches. Good coffee too! I think in sometimes they have live music which is always a plus. Looking forward to our next visit!

Their regular menu and food is pretty decent. We were excited to try the pizzas and we were finally able to tonight. We were not impressed. The toppings were bland and the crust was not crisp. For the price I would definitely get pizza elsewhere

My brother and I stopped by here yesterday as we were passing through Spokane. I ordered a turkey sandwich and my brother ordered The Grinder. We also got cookies. I can't remember the name of the cookie with the pecans, cranberries and peanut butter but it was AMAZING. My sandwich tasted good but I was a bit sad that the bread was not toasted and that was not an option that was asked at checkout. I think the sandwich was good but toasting the bread would have made it great. Good to know for next time. Overall cute place! The sandwiches are really feeling so if you're not super hungry, you could split one with another person. I would come here again!! :)

Fantastic bread! Super accommodating ordering due to allergies. Small tables available both inside & outside. Wine, cider & draft beer available plus coffee & cold brew.

Delicious food! I love stopping by here for lunch (the bread flights have changed my life). The people who work there are always friendly and kind. Funky and cool atmosphere. 10/10 would recommend.

I experienced the classic "you gotta be kidding me" moment at the Grain Shed. I usually go to Great Harvest which is outstanding. I'd heard of the Grain Shed so I ordered the Bread Flight, which was like seven bucks. I gave the woman a $20 and waited. She pocketed it and left the counter. She did not offer change, or, which is usually done, ask what denominations I wanted my change in, to facilitate tipping. She took my $20 and vanished! This was an expensive lesson which proves that no amount of rustic charm can make up for entitled millennials thinking they deserve a 120 percent tip. Never, ever again!

I truly thought I had written a review for Grain Shed but I was mistaken. I think this was because of the many times I have raved about the delicious smells, wonderful breads, flavor-bomb sandwiches and incredible pizzas to friends and family. All of those things I said are very true, but actions do speak louder than words and we come here almost every other week (frequently, it's weekly). You can't go wrong when it comes to their sandwiches. We have had the roast beef, turkey, and breakfast egg sandos ( - the pork, + roast beef). They are all great! If I didn't have to work I would be there for all of the Monday pizza nights. They also have a killer salad! If you have not been here, you absolutely need to make a stop. Once you get a whiff of the magic going on inside, you too will be frequenting The Grain Shed.

Breads baked from freshly milled local grains, beer too, an indoor bar and an outdoor patio for when the weather is good. It ain't cheap, but if you say you support local and fresh and tasty, this is the place. Pay your respects at the shrine to Willie, Waylon and Dolly, among others Me? The breakfast Sando was a knockout with a fried egg, fresh local greens, ham and jalapeño jam. So bread so thick, fresh, whole grain and toasty, you'll need a steak knife and a fork to chow down. They could put Panera Bread out of business if they put their mind to it. Not sure they are that ambitious, so unless you got private equity money, just enjoy their food and drink
