Over sixty wines by the glass are offered at LeftBank Wine Bar, located on the ground floor of the historic American Legion Building on Washington Street. That number will eventually increase, with perhaps twice as many available by the bottle, in an atmosphere that aims to capture a more European approach to one of the world's oldest and most popular beverages.

Venice's Caffé Florian provided the inspiration for LeftBank to provide an experience that's unique to Spokane, whether it's a specialty coffee in the morning, a glass of wine and a cheese plate in the afternoon, or champagne and dessert in the evening.

The goal is to broaden the appeal of wine in a completely non-threatening way. We want our customers to discover for themselves the beauty and depth of an Oregon pinot noir, or the floral crispness of a viognier.

Featured predominately will be Washington wines, including many lesser-known offerings by the glass or bottle.
