Welcome to the Steam Plant Restaurant and Brew Pub! This historical building actually functioned as a steam plant between 1916 and 1986, when the last boiler was shut down in December of that year.

Then years later, the old plant was transformed from a dirty, drab industrial behemoth into a cathedral-bright architectural showcase becoming a functional commercial space while maintaining as much history and equipment as possible within the rigid guidelines of historic renovation. Fortunately, the iconic twin stacks continue to lend a uniqueness to the Spokane skyline.

Since reopening in November 2021, the Steam Plant has partnered with Grain Shed Brewing whose beers are made with regionally sourced ingredients. The bar and dinner menus have been updated to showcase local favorites. Prices range from $11 - 16 for shareable appetizers, soups & salads, handhelds, and pizza; entries range from $18 - 38; and desserts range from $9 - 19 for the Steam Plant Shareable that feeds 4-6 people.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Steam Plant Restaurant & Brew Pub offers an "amazing atmosphere" with a unique historical setting and "fun, steampunk vibes." Guests appreciate the "excellent service" and "delicious food," though some note room for improvement in seasoning. It's a "great venue" for celebrations, and the industrial-meets-classic decor adds to the experience.

Sat us at a plastic folding table. Pizza was super greasy and not much different than a frozen pizza from the supermarket.

This was the second time at The Steam Plant for dinner, and like the first time, it was a pleasant experience. Food was good, service was friendly, and the venue was great.

I'll start that half of our party of 8 ended up being late as they drove all the way from Seattle to eat with us, so even though half of us were on time, the other half was late and I think this must have set the tone for the staff. Food was mediocure at best. The tacos tasted like they had either old or prepackaged pork with rice on the bottom of the taco. Like plain rice. Weird and no flavor so I only ate the top of the tacos. Hamburgers were supposed to be really good. They were okay, not great but the fries were good. One of the pizzas had so many jalapenos on it, she spent half of our meal trying to pull them off and then couldn't eat it because it only tasted like fire jalapenos. Ambiance was very impressive. Wait staff was great when he was at our table, but he was almost never there. Neat inside but not worth going back.

Very historical building and property salvaged by building new structure within the old structure. Maintained the history and display. Very unique. Food was 5 star. Ambiance was 5 star for creativity and unique atmosphere. Service, while not bad, the servers never seemed to be aware of the empty dishes on the table when serving next course. Just kept stacking up. I’ll be back for the food.

Service and ambiance were great. If you’re not going to have salt and pepper on the table your food had better be seasoned well. I got the ribeye steak and there was absolutely no seasoning on the meat. I’ve honestly had better steaks at Texas Roadhouse for $20 less. The dessert was good and my wife enjoyed her Cajun pasta.
