Timeline
14:30
Grab a beer and watch the game at Jack & Dan's Bar & Grill. It is a classic sports bar right on the edge of Gonzaga University, perfect for soaking up the local energy before heading out. The atmosphere is packed and lively, especially if there is a game on.
15:25
Walk to Riverfront Park to find your spot. The park was the host of the 1974 World's Fair and is beautifully maintained. Find a seat near the river and its waterfalls to watch the sun set toward the WSW. The view of the Spokane Falls is best from here as the light fades.
16:55
Head to The Gilded Unicorn for dinner. This basement restaurant has a speakeasy and medieval feel with brick walls and paintings. The unicorn theme integrates flawlessly, and it is a great place to enjoy a meal after the cold evening air.
17:55
End the night at O'Doherty's Irish Grille. It is a place to gather, chat, and tip a pint. Enjoy the Guinness and Harp on tap. If it is a Tuesday night, you might catch some live Irish music, adding a final touch of local flavor to your evening.
