maryhill Winery Maryhill Winery’s Spokane tasting room, located at Kendall Yards on the north bank of the Spokane River, is a long-time dream of owners Craig and Vicki Leuthold, both Spokane natives. “While we’re deeply tied to the Columbia River Gorge, we’re also very rooted in our hometown of Spokane,” Craig Leuthold says. “We feel right at home at Kendall Yards and designed our tasting room to fit in with this beautiful community. Our tasting room is an inviting and relaxing place to experience our award-winning wines.” Maryhill Winery’s tasting room at Kendall Yards is open 12pm to 8 or 9pm daily. The facility can also be rented for private events. This is exactly what Kendall Yards needed — another patio that you’ll want to relax on all night long. Veraci Pizza At Veraci Pizza in Kendall Yards, they fire their gourmet pizzas with apple wood from Yakima Valley in screaming oven temperatures around 1000 degrees. Pick up a large slice if you are in a hurry or dine in and share a pizza, salad, and wine. Treat yourself to their “Caramel Brownie Sundae” and we bet you’ll be raving about it for weeks! With locations all around the Pacific Northwest (Portland, Bend, Seattle and Coeur d’Alene), Veraci is a local favorite. If you’re not in the mood for a full meal, many people love to grab a beer and sit on their beautiful patio that looks out to the Spokane River and Centennial Trail. Again, with the patio, we just can’t resist! 56 ART CHOWDER MAGAZINE
