The Elk, is a fun, neighborhood place to grab a beer and food, and makes the best tuna sandwich ever!
I drive all the way from Seattle to get some of their amazing sandwiches. Huge chunks of perfectly cooked Ahi (yes Ahi, that king of tunas, no chicken of the sea here), are decorated with fresh cucumbers and some sort of tasty wasabi mayo all shoved in between a fat roll. If you are travelling on I-90 this is a convienent and completely worthwhile food stop. Watch out though, you might end up telling stories of that time you "crashed in Spokane" if you get comfy with the giant beer menu and laid back atmosphere.
*"Crashed" as in spent the night, don't drink and drive.
