Located in the heart of Spokane’s Perry District, The Grain Shed stands out as more than just a bakery or brewery—it’s a celebration of local agriculture, craftsmanship, and community. This cooperative business focuses on using heritage grains grown and milled in the Inland Northwest, resulting in deeply flavorful bread, beer, and other creations that reflect the region’s agricultural roots. The Grain Shed has carved out a niche as both a destination and a neighborhood hangout, where food, drink, and connection come together naturally.

The bakery side of The Grain Shed offers a rotating variety of rustic loaves, pastries, and seasonal specials, all made from freshly milled flour. Whether you’re grabbing a hearty sourdough loaf or a flaky croissant, the flavors are complex and nourishing. On the brewery side, small-batch beers are crafted with the same local grains, creating a distinct tasting experience you won’t find elsewhere. Favorites like the Spelt Lager or Dark Wheat Ale often sell out quickly, a testament to their popularity.

Inside, the space is warm, rustic, and inviting—with communal tables that encourage conversation and a laid-back vibe that makes it easy to linger. The staff are passionate about their work and always eager to talk about the origins of their ingredients or offer a taste of something new. Locals stop by for coffee and bread in the morning, return for beer and sandwiches in the afternoon, and often bring friends to share the experience.

The Grain Shed is also deeply involved in the Perry District community, participating in neighborhood events, markets, and sustainability initiatives. Their cooperative model includes local farmers, brewers, and bakers who share ownership and vision, reinforcing the idea that great food can—and should—support the community it comes from. It’s not just a place to eat or drink, but a place to connect and support Spokane-grown excellence.
