Affordable Pet Dental Plus / Union Animal Hospital to relocate to East Central Spokane

Yet another business is joining in on the renaissance of E. Sprague, now know as the Sprague Union District. And, it'll be a move up for them as it will mean a larger more visible location.

The business I'm talking about is Affordable Pet Dental Plus, who is in the process of changing their name to Union Animal Hospital. The name change is in part to reflect that they are a full service veterinary clinic and not just for animal dental needs. Affordable Pet Dental Plus will lease about 6300 square feet at the East Gate Plaza building on the 2200 block of E. Sprague, and will open there after the space is converted in a clinic for them.

Affordable Pet Dental Plus / Union Animal Hospital is currently in a smaller location at 3613 E. Springfield, off of Freya. This new clinic will offer a larger lobby and more exam rooms to reduce wait times for patients. Their vet, Dr. Sutton is also currently take additional courses in orthopedic surgery to allow for more in house surgical options as well.

Their clinic is one the highest rated veterinary clinics in Spokane. Customers will find a caring team that provides an array of services to our dog and cat family members. They provide everything from shots and routine care, to specific care needs and lab diagnostics to surgery.

An  RV park, expanded outdoor venue, an Dinner & a Movie concept movie theater, new family friendly spaces, a new retail store and a whole lot more are all in various stages of construction right now. And, just today Northern Quest confirmed one more piece of their expansion, exactly who will be joining their expanded food court area,

Ben & Jerry's and Thomas Hammer will each have about 500 square feet and Qdoba will be larger at 1000 square feet. Like the existing businesses they will all use a common dining area, the expansion also will result in the creation of approximately 45-50 new jobs.

Early reviews out of the gate are very positive and it's all locally owned and operated with a kitchen ran by Chef Tony Elliott, the former executive chef for Fairchild Air Force Base. The menu will be a contemporary American cuisine with beer, wine and a full bar.

Their menu will match most any taste with such items as fresh green curry chicken, steak frites and an amazing looking clams and mussel chowder. There is also " shareables ", salads and more. Happy hour is 2-6 every day except Sunday and the menu mentions reserving a Chef's Table. But, we won't share everything you'll just have to check it out ( like we hope to soon... ).  Just note that the menu maybe limited during the soft opening portion of their opening.

90s themed Boombox Pizza now open in Downtown Spokane

A cool new pizza restaurant  / bar with a 90s theme is now open in Downtown Spokane. Boombox Pizza is that place and it’s located within the space that was Revolver at 221 N Division. We were able to stop in for lunch ( and a little day drinking... ) , while it’s small and the pizza was a very limited menu (first couple of hours open) it is a pretty cool place. Hit 90 jams played on a handful of TVs , a wall of speakers , and giant murals of 90s stars adorn the interior . That along with a great pizza , beer , wine and a full bar make this a great new addition to Downtown Spokane.

Here are some photos we snapped along with the menu, for more info on Boombox Pizza find them on Facebook at- https://facebook.com/boomboxspokane
