The take
The Take
The Vibe
Dry Fly Distilling Bar, Restaurant & Gift Shop reads as a production-first downtown destination where the spirit on the shelf is also the proof of the concept. The writing frames the space as a distillery-attached bar that foregrounds craft and technique: staff are not mere servers but interpreters of fermentation, distillation and maturation. That focus yields a sophisticated, locally rooted energy—polished but approachable—where industrial and modern bones meet artisanal intent. Guests encounter a place that prioritizes provenance and know-how, making every drink feel like a deliberate showcase of eastern Washington grain and on-site distillation.
Best For
This is a bar for people who care about how their drinks are made: spirit enthusiasts, groups celebrating a locally focused outing, and private events that want an artisanal edge. Because the venue operates as a production-led bar and restaurant in central Spokane, it suits downtown evenings, gatherings that center on tasting and conversation, and celebrations that prefer destination drinking over generic cocktail lists. The gift shop element also makes it practical for visitors who want to take a bottle or souvenir home after probing the house spirits with knowledgeable staff.
Ordering Tips
Order with curiosity: the copy makes clear that the bartenders here act as interpreters between the still and the glass. Ask about the house spirits and the grain bill rather than only tasting notes—staff are prepared to explain fermentation, distillation and maturation. Prioritize cocktails and pours that feature on-site distillates to experience what the distillery is proving, and lean on the bartender’s expertise when choosing between expressions; their knowledge is described as part of the product, not just service.

Where to go if this does not fit
If the group wants a dinner-first plan, try Wild Sage Bistro or Mizuna instead. They are better fits when the food program matters more than the distillery-bar format.
If the night needs more of a restaurant occasion, compare Gander and Ryegrass. If the goal is a casual but food-led Spokane alternative, Cochinito is the sharper cross-shop.
Bar context
How it compares in Spokane
Choose Dry Fly Distilling Bar, Restaurant, & Gift Shop when flexibility matters: drinks, food, retail in one downtown stop, with easy booking friction. Cochinito is the better cross-shop when the group wants a restaurant-led night with a more defined food identity rather than a distillery format.
Wild Sage Bistro and Mizuna are stronger fits for a dinner-first plan, especially for dates or groups prioritizing the meal over the drinks. Dry Fly is easier to treat as a casual anchor, while those peers make more sense when the table itself is the point.
Gander and Ryegrass and Outsider are the better comparisons for readers deciding by ambiance and evening energy. Pick Dry Fly when the distillery angle and low-planning format are the draw; cross-shop the others when the night needs a more restaurant-shaped experience.
